harry potter is the burzum of children's media and equally embarrassing to still go to bat for past your teenage years

You’re fuckin wild for this one Tubi

As good as trailers get

I have the stomach to say one more thing: as meaningful as what students saw in response to their protests (repression) is what they didn't (US shifting away from support for genocide). describing this as *their* failure as opposed to the supposed adults in the room is a joke and not the funny kind

I’ve been procrastinating but it’s time to take down the Lithgows.

Oh thank god I don’t have jury duty tomorrow.

For Playboy, I spoke to adult content creators about the hours of labor their subscribers *don’t* see. “The amount of times I have people in my comments being like, ‘Get a real job!’ and like, I probably pay way more to the IRS than you do!” - @siridahl.bsky.social www.playboy.com/read/sex-rel...

Still just this dude directing as best as I can tell

“Separate the art from the artist” sounds like exactly what a multinational corporation in the business of extracting revenue from intellectual property would want me to do so consider me skeptical of the whole idea.

It doesn’t really make sense to compare Harry Potter to Guernica the painting but maybe a better comparison would be “Guernica” the Brand New song, which I was comfortably able to move on from after discovering that the person who created it sucked ass.

It’s not a sport so much as a microcosm of everything wack about these books: there are ostensibly two teams with rules and points and everything but ultimately it all comes down to One Very Special Boy winning all by himself and none of their actions mean anything.

yeah i separate art from the artist. i put the harry potter books in the recycling and jk rowling in the trash.

Alright it’s clear that this current situation is unsustainable. Are there any good shotguns I can just run around with and pop people? I do not want to aim down sights 95% of the time. This used to be the prerequisite for multilayer games.

Yeah but it *feels* accurate

This Mary J Blige album is from the era where you got different producers and songwriting teams to do each track. Of course “Family Affair” is a giant highlight but it’s also so unexpected to go from that extremely Dre production right into 2001 Neptunes.

I can’t wait for everyone who thought that Wilco, Kings of Convenience, and Rufus Wainwright were boring to spin 2 hours of this Stars of the Lid double lp.

Wait that Harry Potter show isn’t out until next January? Oh we have so much time left to bully its fan base!

I don’t understand how one can become a conscientious objector when they start preparing the invasion if you weren’t when we blew up a school full of children.

I do appreciate the implication that our bringing the Apollo 17 crew back to earth instead of abandoning them to die in space was in fact a surrender.

Remember this because I sure do and I’m gonna make los Caballeros kiss. You owe me this. You promised I could make the three caballeros smooch each other and maybe do over the pants hand stuff. I’ll sue you I swear to god

Big fan of his work with Stella, The State, Meghan McCain, Mike and Tom Eat Snacks etc…. but I just cannot with the man’s posts

Funny thing about American mass media is how woke content is broadly popular, routinely pays for itself, and sometimes goes blockbuster, whereas right-wing content is a narrow niche that rarely reaches breakeven, never goes blockbuster, and usually requires immense subsidies for it to exist at all.

We joke a lot but please don’t sign your middle aged body up to get perforated by drones on Kharg island

Still got it!

They’re gonna be fuckin and suckin

There is a fuck in Sarah McLachlan’s “Building a Mystery”?! Sorry I’ve only heard it at the dentist.

I think both of them would have been at January 6 but the difference is that Pete is just a car dealership guy who genuinely supports everything while Goofy is a victim of Qanon

a great day for those artisanal perverts who never gave up on hand-drawing their own Disney spank shows instead of typing 'Clarabelle Cow show me what them udders do' into Sora

We legalized cannabis and sports gambling and everything bad they said would happen with legal weed has happened worse with gambling but you’re still not allowed to advertise on TV or buy it with a credit card and the supreme court is going to decide if using it waives your 2nd amendment rights.

wouldn't be the first time disney killed sora

This masterpiece just turned 25

Heard we’re talking favorite Onion bits

Got the late Jamie Blanks’ STORM WARNING on and he pulled full John Carpenter duties on this one: he’s also credited as an editor and composer. I’ve never seen it. I really dig that period in the late 00s when Australians started doing New French Extremity style flicks.

@famousblue.bsky.social this is one for you I suspect

I've been asked recently for something on Why Ed Markey / Why Not Seth Moulton, so I decided to do a stock-taking of Seth Moulton's record. jonathancohn.medium.com/ma-elects-fi...

This thread was inspired by the Christopher Lambert movie Resurrection which is a Seven rip off. Lambert is a crawfish eating Chicago detective and the gore effects are solid. Every single line of dialogue is one of these:

I learned recently that the Appalachian Mountains are part of the same range that also became the Scottish highlands. We’re all Pangea Buddies when you get down to it.

I’m not married to Fortnite or anything, are there any other good multiplayer shooters where the shotgun is fun to shoot from the hip? That’s basically all I’m looking for.

Oh so there it is. They couldn’t pull off the Roblox “Fortnite is a platform!” thing so now a bunch of “modes” that should’ve been standalone games are gone

I remember flying 3 weeks after 9/11 and how shocking it was to see armed guards at the airport. They never got rid of the guns after that so I don’t think it’s likely that they’ll pull the ICE goons either.

This is devastating but also what in the world is going on over there? There’s only like 6 successful video games at any time and you’re one of them. Solidarity with those impacted.

Right. Unlike Corey Taylor and his dad James.

Both of the albums for the next round of Best of 2001 are pleasant and boring, I miss Slipknot day already

I have the same opinions about this as everyone else (besides where do you even get objective accurate reporting right now?) but also “news/politics junkie” was the worst kind of hobbyless personality affect and it’s probably best that it’s fading away.
