This is brilliant. My lovely wife watched The Shining for the first time and afterwards had a lot to say about Wendy's role and all the expectations of her as a wife and mother. This article is such a fun way to explore that theme.

this is very funny www.foxnews.com/media/jd-van...

Weird take, I guess, but I think if the police chief holds a press conference to announce he's breaking the law, he should be instantly fired for cause

Catherine O’Hara came in to our office to guest on @bullseye.maximumfun.org years ago. I don’t think I’ve met a more delightful person. Hilarious, beautiful, wild, sharp. Just everything you’d wish. An absolute genius who will be dearly missed. youtu.be/TLQeJceRaJk

I can’t handle it. I loved her too much. I spoke to her once, she was the guest on Rob Lowe’s podcast the day after Jan 6th, she says to me “hey how’s it going, any news happening down there or not so much?” I said “NO no, pretty quiet.” “Good, so glad to hear it.” RIP. www.npr.org/2026/01/30/n...

A lot of Dems are going to take Bovino and Noem being fired as the finish line, and it's very important to make it clear to them that it is a starting line

seeing corporate outlets repeatedly refer to ICE beating the shit out of protesters as “clashes” may be the thing that sends me over the edge

Put some new prints in my webstore roryblank.bigcartel.com

Leaked documents about ICE deployment to Minneapolis suggests they're more worried about the backlash to Renee Good's death than they're letting on: www.kenklippenstein.com/p/immigratio...

this is a very good sign

I can't believe people are still on X. Fix your soul.

Look at this thread, please

"Maduro is a brutal authoritarian dictator," I wisely intone, as the corrupt demented paedophile US President violating Constitutional Law while operating a gestapo and concentration camps illegally arrests a foreign leader on charges which read like they were written on a paper placemat in crayon.

"It’s the MOST, wonderful tiiiime of the year: when Judge John Hodgman, Bailiff Jesse Thorn, and Producer Jennifer Marmor try your…favorite? Classic? UNREPEATABLE family holiday recipes!"

Just because you aren’t transgender doesn’t mean transgender people aren’t real.

For our members-only series Podcast Movie Movie Podcast, @jordanmorris.bsky.social and I watched “The Christmas Challenge,” a Christmas movie about a podcast. It was literally the worst film I have ever seen. I hope you will listen because otherwise the nightmare was all for naught.

Hohoho! I drew this year's holiday card for my art rep, Felix Comic Art. I wanted the recipients to get something that looked like a piece of vintage original art, but also couldn't help poking some fun at Felix's love for Dark Knight Returns.

Hey cool @jordanmorris.bsky.social is writing WEB OF VENOM! Out April 8th. www.marvel.com/articles/com...

You better watch out because Faculty of Horror’s episode on Silent Night, Deadly Night (1984) is now live 🎅🏻🪓 pod.link/591499834/ep...

I have trans kids. I am not a weirdo. I swear.

"but you're not ready for that conversation" baby, I'm not ready for any conversation. Don't talk to me

NPR talked to and quoted a transgender teen whose treatment is threatened. Did your news organization? www.npr.org/sections/sho...

This could have been way worse.

In my latest for @bloodydisgusting.com I recount my endless and irrational love for ‘Silent Night, Deadly Night, Part 2’ in love letter form. If it’s garbage day then I guess that makes me a garbage collector. 🎅🪓 bloody-disgusting.com/editorials/3...

I have long thought Tarantino to be our best film critic - but the medium for his critique is film, not print. I was not as taken by Cinema Speculation as I thought I would be - in writing, which has the cadence of his vocal patterns, he's too in love with the shock take. Remember his TOP GUN riffs?

Literally the whole reason they were both that big is people made a day of going out to both of them, sometimes in costume. Without that, you have, well maybe not nothing, but not something either

Assuming there isn’t more to this than we know, it is indeed very embarrassing to see an industry obsessed with being taken seriously as an art form self censor in this way. You need the grit if you want the pearl, dweebs. No amount of trotting out auteur film directors on stage offsets that need

When the terf and transphobes arrives in my bluesky

Se7en is a Christmas movie because people talk about the Bible and Brad Pitt gets a present at the end.

I will not interact with AI boosters on this, god's own website. They are mewling pitiful creatures and they already live in a hell of their own making

If RFKj could cry what would the consistency of the tears be? I bet viscous

One of my favorite characters in anything.

How I identify politically

Crossover of my favorite podcasters. Whole episode rocks but that story about Bill Withers was very moving. Check it out!

Exclusive first look at the live action Legend of Zelda movie reveals that Zelda is the boy, as expected. Director Wes Bell explains "It was important to me to stay as true to the game as possible, and in the games, Zelda is the boy."

@bransonreese.bsky.social must pay

"One new term we’re considering is 'people who are without home.' Notice how that term starts with “people.” We believe in language that centers humanity. Actions, less so."

Here’s my experience with BLADE: TRINITY In 2005 I was flown to Australia to host wraparound segments for tv special called The World Comedy Tour. I shot these bits in Sydney then went to Melbourne the next day. 1/11

I’m not sure which is the worst part of ADHD, this or time blindness, but oof, yeah:

I don’t know who needs to hear this, but DEXTER: RESURRECTION is a return to form for the series and character in that it feels just like it belongs in with the first few seasons. Jess and I mainlined it this weekend and blew through it in two nights. So fucking good with the best Dexter cast ever.

Alice Isn't Dead is amazing and if you haven't listened to it before then I urge you to do so.

Parks and Recs good. While we're at it, so is Hamilton. Stop living your life by what strangers online think is cringe.

his entire world view is he hates sick people and wants them to die. part of this is a denial that sickness could ever come near him, thus his immediate panic

you know, the original SPACE JAM was not some kind of masterpiece — it wasn’t even particularly good — but it feels like SEVEN SAMURAI compared to the sequel (watching it with my kids right now)

Wasn’t able to watch WS live but apparently the Jonas Bros did some of a song at some point? I cannot express this urgently enough: NO. Baseball is not meant to be associated with entertainment. The beauty of baseball is its uninterrupted agony. The outside world must be barred from the stadiums.

This is already so out of pocket and Carl Tart is so hilarious
