The amount of times I‘ve come to this realization while being frustrated with a discourse in the last few years

this doesn't even have the full context which makes it funnier

My friend @wewill2026.bsky.social is running for congress in my hometown. He is the only candidate refusing corp PAC/AIPAC money and supports a data center moratorium. I want to raise $10k before the FEC deadline tomorrow Can you help? 1000 $10 donations = $10k secure.actblue.com/donate/wl-me...

With Elon Musk becoming our first trillionaire, I talked to American users of the rapidly growing “Almost Homeless” subreddit, who are struggling to stay housed amid a brutal job market and with social services slashed to the bone. They say this online community is crucial to their mental stability.

The real takeaway here is that more people should be reading Premiere Party 🥂

I’m gonna go put in a limb and say that a lot of the critics who have been most frustrated by dealing with the last 15 years of this kind of film fan are ones who, like me, actually *did* grow up loving “nerd shit” and enjoy thinking critically about it, which includes not liking stuff that is dumb

It’s insane that it still feels so good and rare to hear someone just write this in plain English @rilaws.bsky.social

please read this statement written by Benjamin "Champagne" Song and share as far and wide as you can: https://prairielanddefendants.com/defendant-writings/statement-by-benjamin-champagne-song/

OK I'm glad I'm not the only one who thought this

So I'm going to be back in LA for the S. Korea/Mexico game. Where tf is the party

2 Worlds 1 Cup

[taking the deepest possible breath] the Dutch East India Company was established in 1602,

DISCLOSURE DAY - weird movie. People are dinging it for feeling dated, but the degree to which our protagonists are completely without agency and kind of stumbling through a hostile world (people say “why am I doing this?” multiple times as they do something) feels really contemporary and relevant

Welp keep us in your thoughts

I wish I was more shocked by this reveal, still completely horrific

Every six months or so a new batch of the 20 year olds on the various Lana Del Rey subreddits look to each other and wonder aloud… “am I the only one who thinks Hunter Biden is sexy”? And it’s truly precious to watch

Would you guys watch this if it was basically the same except me and my dog youtu.be/z1DpVrNyTjc?...

“Again”

among the biggest problems with television today, the lack of economic or logistical pressure to actually make shows is among the greatest. (1/14)

The hyuck/gee whiz school of AI journalism

incredible

Every billionaire is an imagination failure

Its that time of year again when I must brag about our peonies

Sorry I’m being punchy on bluesky, it’s just that I read a headline about how this summer may finally be the referendum on the franchise film monopoly and I was like oh great, just in time, I graduated film school 2 months after IRON MAN came out and it only took 18 years

They’re heralding a whole new generation of feature filmmakers and millennials have been right there this whole time not getting to do jack shit in the movies lol

Among its many qualities I LOVE BOOSTERS was the first movie to remind me of ZOOLANDER maybe since ZOOLANDER?

I’ve spent all day toodling around town doing errands listening to Dave Matthews band live at red rocks in my little car

I’ve had a front row see to watching this story unfold for @wyatt-williams.bsky.social over the last year and the piece he has in this month’s Harper’s is still surprising and beautiful in ways I didn’t expect … you simply must read it

Literally nobody cares but it was just brought to my attention that Allegiant has stopped its summer LAX-Cedar Rapids direct flights which is incredibly detrimental to my extremely specific lifestyle

Thought this was inspiring.

This was on the bulletin board at my local ace hardware and I’m going to show it to anyone who ever asks me if Iowa City can really measure up to Hollywood in terms of opportunity

What a time to be a movie sicko

I say this as a former grantland staffer who has learned the hard way, the less you write essays about poptimism the less it exists… be the change etc

(Last RT bc I am now watching PLURIBUS and was looking for tweets about PLURIBUS but also it’s true what she says)

I will add that this is why all the biggest shows on TV — The Pitt, Paradise, Pluribus — have lower and mid level writers in their room. A good showrunner knows a room with 5 Co-EPs and 1 SW is an ego-clash nightmare. You need to delegate at all levels and trust all levels otherwise you burn out.

correct

It’s been eight incredible rewarding months but really looking to move on from my current position of “writing stuff for free” to with any luck “writing stuff for compliments” hmu if you’ve got any leads

this is just fundamentally antisocial behavior being described here but it is in fact what these rich bozos think of you + what you want
