I have to sign up for Netflix to find out there's a new season of Dark Winds?? Let's tighten it up out there, folks.

I don't push back against the quadrennial disdain for soccer that I encounter, because the Tour de France happens every year, and, well....

if this is a lost masterpiece it’s a pretty minor one, but I gotta say: a concept album about a skinhead who murders a drag queen, steals her cookbook, and passes it off as his own to fame and fortune (until the jig is up) sure does resonate in 2026 more than, y’know, Tommy

thank you for keeping me up to date on the fact people i don’t know on twitter hate what everyone else seems to agree is a great movie. it’s important to stay informed on this and everything else they don’t like

Jimothy is the raccoon version of Merv the talking cat

It's such a tell with these people. Whenever they go off about body shapes, hairstyles, and sartorial choices, you know they've got nothing. He isn't talking about politics or justice or anything like that. This is just the meanest girl with whom you went to high school who never matured one iota.

Not a lot of Virginia mentions out there, so I'll pipe up for the Boston of the South.

Thief, a good one, when I was 12. Taken to the theater by a bored babysitter, I thought it was great. Probably responding more to the Tangerine Dream score than the decidedly grown-up themes.

"Orla has a new boyfriend, Mike Davidson. He'd been with Glenda Harwood, McLain's previous shadow." I may not survive this sudden burst of exposition about characters I remember faintly if at all. I don't mean I'll stop watching Silo, I might actually die of this.

A home tutor arranges domestic jobs for his other family members.

"When I talk about Messi being the best athlete of all time, I want to be clear about something: Yes, I do think he would be a better quarterback than Tom Brady, a better golfer than Tiger Woods and a better power forward than LeBron James." Not sure about O'Hanlon's premise, but I love the verve!

Ugh, imagine a worse hang than Dabo Swinney, you can't....

Lucas Herbert going for 59?

Top-tier Divorced Guy behavior: thinking your ex-wife is willing to cover and lie for you and not being right about that.

I really enjoy CRITICAL DARLINGS with @rilaws.bsky.social + @alisonwillmore.bsky.social, especially when it provokes thought about not-so-thoughtful movies — like an episode on the live-action MOANA that left me thinking about The Rock in relation to the manosphere: open.spotify.com/episode/7y66...

Roswell Antipasto

Hope everyone has/had a great time. Y'all come back, now, ya hear?

A friends daughter just said this: 😂😂😂 “England need to understand that football went out for milk and cigarettes 60 years ago and isn’t coming back.”

If you're heading to the England-Argentina match, hope you didn't drive! Atlanta event parking rules in full effect and then some today.

Even the contributors to Rewatchables whose perspective I might otherwise enjoy tend to ingratiate themselves to the Ringer house (read: Simmons's) preoccupations. I get nothing from it and dropped it quickly from my podcast rotation.

Adrian Beltre would never have made it as a soccer player, what with all the head touching. He would be constantly enraged.

It appears that some, if not all, the clues are given to mister police in this

Sign o' the times -- a character's conversion hinges on a moment when a chef dumps a load of garbage out the window of a moving train.

New mandate, treat them like they do the locals.

What does it mean that it's "found" in self-tanners? Isn't that like saying Doritos were "found" in some of the sealed foil bags at the Frito-Lay factory? We did that!

First-time watch, necessary to vote in a poll. It's up against The 39 Steps (1935), which I think I prefer. But I'm enjoying this, there's a lot of humor, and at least one genuine LOL ("When? Infancy?" IYKYK).

Yes, I will pay once again to have Tom Cruise tell me (and those I resemble) that I'm not yet dead. He and I share an intensely personal cinema, thank you very much.

"Tomorrow Is Today", love the lyrics and how it goes from delicate to bombastic

Image of Jeff Daniels as Ronald Reagan in the upcoming The Brink of War. The Blank Check podcast recently discussed the problem Hollywood is having casting older characters, as so few older actors actually look old in the way we're accustomed to. Not Daniels' fault, but is this the best they can do?

Did bro even lift?

Betty Draper, I am with you.

Thank you, Lindsey Graham, for creating the permission structure for fellow Senators afraid to come out as dead. Your trailblazing courage will be long remembered.

The perils of momentary virality -- I was blocked by five users for this post. Perhaps because, in my enthusiasm, I slipped into second person plural regional vernacular? Bless them hearts!

Lindsay Graham was a warpig chickenhawk motherfucker drenched in the blood of innocents in exactly the right way, by Ezra Klein.

This is the most Bluesky reply I've ever received. Finally, my account has ze juice!

"Put down one no, one against." "Right, one negative, corporal-captain."

I like Silo, but the character of Daniel Keene takes me out. First of all, GA-14, a congressional district that makes MTG's look cosmopolitan, would not in a million years elect him to represent them. Also, it's Red Top Mountain you can see from Cartersville, not Pine Mountain. Details, sheesh!

Need to spirit this sentiment back about 40 years and present it to a couple of folks.

There was actual Peter Buck banter! His stage presence is so funny when he's acknowleging the audience. He'll look up briefly from his gear, say something oblique and unexpected, then go back to fiddling. He always gets a laugh, partly in the hopes it will encourage him to talk more.
