I always thought that slugs and worms were hermaphrodites but now Star Wars is shoving its male/female gender theory down my throat.

Hear me out... The Snugglehutts.

I did like 'The Mandalorian and Grogu' but I will have to say that, during some of the shots, I felt like yelling out, "OH MY GOD IS THAT UNKAR PLUTT?!!?" just to see how my fellow moviegoers would react.

I pass by it twice a week

The use of that word is key. Because the extremist right has always been jealous of our narratives.THEY want to be victims so badly. They need a story. So, reverse racism. Creation of rightwing “Legal Defense Funds” to litigate Demanding entry to programs for Black ppl And now, REPARATIONS

Ha!

Why scramble? Just denounce her. Period.

Overheard at the airport, "Look at all these people rushing to get out of Texas."

No one has ever come up with a better description of IMAX than my eight-year-old daughter: “You’re not just looking at part of a wall. It’s the whole wall.”

My kingdom for a tech ecosystem that will stop smothering me with apps and devices that constantly try to engage me in conversation against my will

The decisions made by state supreme courts touch every part of our lives. And that’s especially important when voting rights and basic freedoms are being challenged. Today voters in Georgia can stand up for fairness and integrity by electing Miracle Rankin and Jen Jordan to Georgia’s Supreme Court.

just saw the press briefing about the actions of the murdered victims in the San Diego mosque attack, and the immensity of their heroism coupled with the enormity of what the attack might have looked like otherwise is really too much to handle

I don’t actually enjoy watching the late seasons of The Boys but damn that sucker is relevant

This is very much like how I would review a film like this. youtu.be/psIBhAGGbvM?...

This is super-fun.

Today at The Reveal: I wrote about a topic no one has ever discussed before: the Special Edition of STAR WARS. It's the first of an occasional feature comparing different cuts of the same movie. And it's free to read for everyone (but do consider subscribing):

When Annie Lennox sang, "I want to talk like lovers do" she never said that 98% of the conversations are some variant of, "My arm is going to sleep. Can you shift your weight two inches that way?"

Some days, you just want to work on your post-apocalyptic skill set.

QUINTANILLA: According to the filings, the president has been trading some Intel in the quarter JIM CRAMER: Yeah, uh, yeah, hmm FABER: Got nothing to say? CRAMER: Uh, uh, yeah, whoa, yeah. FABER: Don't worry. We're not having technical difficulties, but we gotta go

It's literal comic book villainy. The bad guys can tell you every aspect of their plan straight-to-camera because they started implementing it 30 years ago and it's too late to stop them.

Read all the Potter books. Tapped out of the movies around number five.

Carcinization is real

Misogynoir is gross. Period. And the VAST majority of The Odyssey cast is super white. Sit down and STFU. Lupita Nyong’o is one of the most beautiful women on earth. If you’re already accepting that women are possessions and have no personal agency then yeah, I totally buy going to war over her.

My Father who raised me on Rush Limbaugh style Republicanism went Never Trumper for a bit and now is telling people "The only way to save this country is to vote straight Democrat"

The Odyssey discourse I’m interested in

Doing some shopping for when it happens

I was not aware that Frank Stack had died. This NYT obit really covers him well. www.nytimes.com/2026/05/14/b...

It is so fascinating that with a new Star Wars movie coming out my biggest media craving is a rewatch of 'The Last Jedi'.

i assume that's because you're staying out of the sun

GILLIBRAND: What is your record?! I don't want to just hear about what you don't like about the Biden administration SCOTT TURNER: During the Biden administra-- GILLIBRAND: Stop talking about Biden! Talk about your record TURNER: During the Biden administration-- GILLIBRAND: Oh my God!

You can go by the Reflecting pool and heckle the work being done. Some of my favorites are: "This sucks!" "You are working for a pedophile" "You are making a national monument look like a trailer park swimming pool"

Funny Games (2007)

no director’s disappearance from the cinephile firmament has been more puzzling to me than John Sayles, who felt absolutely foundational when I was coming up. So a) incredible news, and b) everybody watch Lone Star and Matewan now

RIP Rex Reed who perfected the "I guess it was well-written, well-directed, and well-acted, but I just didn't like it therefore it is an affront to all things good and decent" film review.
