It’s Cinema Christmas in the Conroy household

Are we really Karen-on-the-customer-service-line-ing a war

My fellow Angelenos can understand the gravity and importance of what I am about to say: I am willing to park at CityWalk for this.

Four-byline alert: 🚨 “.. A broker for Pete Hegseth, the US defence secretary, attempted to make a big investment in major defence companies in the weeks leading up to the US-Israeli attack on Iran, according to three people familiar with the matter.” www.ft.com/content/744e...

My "We don't allow bets on assassinations and murder" ad campaign has people asking a lot of questions already answered by the ad campaign

It brings me great pleasure to inform you the word "blurb" is named after a made-up woman named Belinda Blurb whose job is to tell everyone how great a book is

Sometimes, the system works.

When I was growing up, I did not spend all day with my friends scouring the newspaper for the stupidest, worst shit and showing it to each other.

Rewatched BEING JOHN MALKOVICH for the first time in like twenty years tonight (it still rules) and was startled by the two-line cameo appearance of Octavia Spencer. More like BEING JOHN MA am I right

A critic’s job is not to tell you whether or not you should see a movie.

Big liberal rally happens? Good excuse to punch left. Streamer is popular? Time to punch left. Antisemitism on the rise on the right? Country completely run by rightwing fascists? You better know what it is baby.

Australians, check your continuity. A bunch of things have probably changed in confusing, but hopefully simple and commercial, ways.

thank god i found it again

Crime in the United States has dropped immensely in the last 35 years

I just watched this week’s DRAG RACE and honestly, I’m not sure I need to finish this season now.

Best railcar graffiti I've ever seen

“there is no ethical consumption under capitalism“ increasingly means “I would like to not be judged for doing the least ethical consumption under capitalism”

face down on the floor, sobbing uncontrollably, after realizing dinosaurs never lived to experience the love we share for them

This absolutely aligns with my reading of Superagency. The use of AI is to make you feel good, not to make you think or to tell you no.

Tonight’s watch is LONG overdue

I don't think trans people should be imprisoned for 5 years because they have to pee

The really ugly thing about that “originally by Johnny Cash” situation is that either the people involved truly are that ignorant OR they did that intentionally because they understand that glaring errors are engagement bait, and either way, it’s a symptom of a deeply sick society

This has really bad and dark ramifications.

New Robyn first-listen reaction: more of an EP than an album, the two biggest bangers were already released, doesn't connect with me in the way that HONEY did but I do think there's a potential remix of "Really Real" that will unlock it into a true all-timer

a well-meaning friend recently said "of course you'd move to a smaller town and buy a house if it weren't so expensive right now" and seemed genuinely surprised when i was like "no. no i would not"

This should be an impeachable offense. I understand that we’re way past any of that, but that shouldn’t stop us from naming it.

Well, that aged phenomenally.

Realism vs. Reality

I feel like all the people telling me how smart Gavin Newsom is also told me how smart Elon Musk was ten years ago.

Every cell in my body is screaming "bump into the corner of this"

Both Arrow and Kino Lorber have also just emailed me new disc sales but guys… we already just spent all our money… I'm sorry but Criterion beat your ass

well but have you considered that one time people on bluesky were very rude about a journalist who is my friend?

The universe is a glorious, stunningly beautiful place, and it’s offensive & gross when people produce or share fake space imagery. There’s a video floating around on here pretending to be the night sky viewed from Mars. It’s extremely fake, has been polluting the internet for years. Don’t share it

Pilot on my flight: “Air travel is not fun right now. Please be nice to each other. I don’t want to be on CNN. Let’s just go home.”

I'm intensely ready for this show and it had better (1) get picked up (quite likely) (2) be good (also quite likely) (3) lead to a reasonably affordable non-import complete-series high-def disc release (lol nope)

This governor's race sucks, y'all. We are going to be put in the position of voting at the last second for WHICHEVER Dem feels like they can get past one of the R's, regardless of their positions or fitness for the job. And that is truly terrible.

SORRY - dashare.zone ADMIN

I see that this website, which dislikes Gavin Newsom, is once again spending the day talking about Gavin Newsom, an outcome he definitely didn’t want and definitely isn’t delighted by

Being a powerful, wealthy person "unwilling" to speak the truth publicly and going further to actively lie is pretty much the definition of "not a good person."

I made some astonishing choices in that Criterion flash sale. Yesterday was my birthday though so I guess I don't feel TOO guilty about what I just spent

This is also why people should stop RTing the underlying account

i need a DND setting for my phone that explicitly tells people i'm in a movie, what movie i'm watching, and that i'm a better person than they are because i'm patronizing the movies
