What I always look forward to in every Chris Nolan movie is the Obligatory Unfunny Joke (OUJ). In TENET, the OUJ is when John David Washington gets patted down by goons and says, "Whoa, buy me a drink first!" Captured well in the opening 15 seconds of this spoof. www.youtube.com/watch?v=s2FX...

It must be so cool to live in a functional republic.

I think people should be self-promoters. I don't care how many times you post and repost your work, do it a million more times. Putting yourself out there as a creator is the hardest thing to do. You're trusting the populous with a piece of yourself and it takes guts. Tell everyone you fucking rule

this may well be the defining joke of our era theonion.com/guy-who-suck...

my god, it's real

This reads like MAGA MadLibs.

Steven's feedback was crucial throughout the five-year process, and hopefully it's clear in the text that I listened to and appreciated it.

"Soon," purrs BC, tenderly stroking his Bernstein nose under glass in his home's museum wing.

The Capitol Cop whose January 6th story most of us have heard was Black.

Incredible reporting.

He could have had a weekly column called "Let It Rainn...."

This was basically the environment in every neighborhood I ever lived in in the fabled, sundappled Heartland of America.

I know I'm not alone when I say I really don't care what Glenn Beck thinks. About literally anything.

A reminder that a lot of thoughts that feel like facts (in particular the dark ones like, "Things are pointless") are in fact *feelings* and will pass. Hope this helps!

These three players from the Ivory Coast's World Cup team walked off the airplane looking like this. I'd say that's grossly unfair to the rest of humanity. (Ivorian designer Ibrahim Fernandez).

Let 2026 be remembered as the year that “children’s movie made for 50-year-old men” ceased to be a surefire business strategy.

Now they're fighting... the Weather Channel

1027 more ballots found in Agujero del Culo.

fake feds are investigating ballots that don’t exist from a made-up city. other than that, totally checks out.

The Bengali Knicks poet and the Sikh dholi guys combined forces for a follow-up! Now we just need the sewing machine guy and the ride a bike with stuff on his head guy to meet.

Zeus said fuck this guy in particular

Whenever I hear a news story about New York or Los Angeles that involves windows being broken I wonder if they ever call up South Dakota and North Dakota and Kansas and Wyoming and ask if the combined populations of all those states broke any windows today

I think the last several days have proven that people who don’t like big, beautiful, multi-cultural cities are anti-social freaks who should be ignored.

TCM hasn't programmed many steeper declines in quality between two movies than this one.

I'm Gen X and I figured out some time ago that if I had bought a house, got married and had kids, I'd be financially underwater now. This is one of the reasons I feel why anyone who starts talking publicly about falling birth rates should shut the fuck up.

Fascism's a fever you break with shit like what happened in New York last night. Create more excuses to feel things like that together.

Remember this scene the next time a corporate reporter tries to insist that a rural diner full of white men in their 60s is somehow a more authentically "American" place, somehow more representative of who we are as a nation.

Last image from tonight (short film in the morning): this brother out here with his Singer sewing machine, gifting people a custom embroidery on their jerseys and hats with the name and the date, was more artistic than anything at Burning Man and ad gorgeous as a Caravaggio. Magic! Goodnight.

This kind of happiness needs to be the norm.

The previous 45 times the Trump said he had a deal with Iran, he was wrong. That’s why I think he’s right this time

It's possible to derive joy from other people's joy.

The L Train Brass Band leads a Knicks celebration on 5th Ave in Park Slope!

New Yorkers singing Empire State of Mind

First Finals in the 30 years of pbp data where every game was within 5 points in the last 5 minutes. (And they were all within 2 in the last 2.)

wishing spike lee a very happy (and safe) night!

Cigar chomping studio exec: "The people want SCAFFOLDING, damn it! Halt every picture in production and add scaffolding scenes now!"

This is what happens when you use A.I. instead of an artist 🤔 🍆 🎇

The "It's a distraction!" crowd never seems to get that this guy's attention span is for shit. Iran is smarter than our opposition party in that they're waiting this out while they hold all the cards and watching him fumble his way trying to get out of this jam.

Planning to bring along my own creepy bust of Steven Spielberg when I see DISCLOSURE DAY this afternoon.

Big mistake HUGE!!!

The "D" being removed from the Kennedy center!🎊

Because his father never loved him

“Why’s it taking so long to take down the name when they put it up so fast?” yeah, undoing every single thing he’s done is gonna be exactly like that, get used to it
