Imagining a depressed Christopher Nolan wandering around Park City in 1999, his head hanging low while “Hello Darkness, My Old Friend” plays in the background, all because The Blair Witch Project was just SO damn good

What’s a film you watch once a year like it’s a ritual? #filmsky

BREAKING: Trump responds to South Park: ‘Fake news, it’s really this big!’”

The South Park team has no fucks left to give. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Afet...

This is incredibly funny but, also, I hope everyone who is pro AI or a teacher that allows AI can see clear as day that the ultimate goal is to put the thumb on the scale of all of this shit. That's why they're forcing it on us. It's a joke.

Every headline fuels my will to live long enough to piss on his grave.

Another musical genius gone. RIP Brian Wilson. youtu.be/nSAoEf1Ib58?...

His music is a gift to all humanity. Sly Stone will never die.

"[Broken Spectre] is a great example of not just observing a story but being an active participant in it." #vr #horror

Sir we've lost the Catturd army

A billionaire with the resources to cause real harm to the US is threatening the President like a playground bully. The earth shifts again under Democracy's feet.

Professional media: *much handwringing over how to cover Trump* People on TikTok:

People keep asking why The Onion is doing well right now, and it's simply because we just refuse to kowtow. I cannot stress enough how good it is for your business and your soul be strong and even fun in the face of the ongoing horror and bullshit. www.vanityfair.com/hollywood/st...

Hey @wsj.com, your bias is showing! Headline vs Truth (later in the article).

The Sven Squad is bringing chills to your summer with HOUSE OF SVENGOOLIE’s presentation of the found-footage classic THE BLAIR WITCH PROJECT, this Saturday on MeTV.

When will @democrats.org realize that messaging needs to focus on REPUBLICANS not Trump? Republican economy, Republican Tariffs, Republican Recession, Republican deportations, Republican budget cuts. Trump is a symptom, Republicans who let him do what he is doing are the disease.

Excellent read. (gift link)

How it started/how it ended.

I haven't posted about it much, so my new follows may not be aware that I've started a Patreon for a new project of mine, the Center for Immersive Arts. My goal is to preserve and educate about the history of immersive art, theater, games and more www.patreon.com/c/CenterForI...

Closing out the day like

Democrats should stop using the names "Elon Musk" and "Donald Trump" and call everything what it is: Republican. The Republican DOGE, The Republican Recession, The Republicans are defying the Judicial Branch. THEY ARE ALL responsible. It's time to make the Republican brand poisonous.

They're called public records for a reason. Starting today, WIRED will *stop paywalling* articles that are primarily based on public records obtained through the Freedom of Information Act, becoming the first publication to partner with @freedom.press to offer this for our new coverage.

Kraftwerk live at the Beacon Theater.

NightFlight Plus has the gorgeously loopy “Black Tight Killers” and it’s a heap of technicolor fun.

"Worldbuilding" is commonly linked to epic fantasy, comic book films, and sci-fi, but the romantic comedy "Defending Your Life" is one of its finest examples. 1/3
