Saw Dead Poets in the theater right around my 16th birthday, which, let me tell you, was *a moment.* Very nice piece which captures the magic of this singular film. Please do see it if you haven’t!

We just watched The Third Man last night and I’d forgotten just how incredible it is. The only other time I’ve seen it was just after a trip to Vienna in ‘09. Just the best.

The beginning of the end

friday night hot take: channing tatum tap number should be just as popular as tom holland umbrella dance

HARDEST PHOTO OF 2025 JUST DROPPED

Seeing this tomorrow! Gonna be 🔥

Love reposting love for Sneakers when I see it… sad for the reason today. RIP to one of the originals.

The new King Princess album slaps, people. Check it out.

KSoftDrink Demon Hunters, myself.

Just too adorable.

Greenlight this shit IMMEDIATELY!

EVERYONE IN CHICAGOLAND: Save this number in your phone. If you see an ICE raid: 1. Ask the the person their name 2. Ask who to call to let them know they’ve been taken by ICE 3. Tell them to not say anything 4. Call this number to report the arrest If possible video it

Every Chicagoan rn:

River and I really enjoy that new Suede album!

Chicago forever

Lower (lower) Wacker. A sign by a Chicagoan for Chicagoans.

To my utter lack of surprise: JD is right! The new album is fantastic. Updated, modern, yet unmistakably Suede. What legends.

“Music is an extraordinary thing to do with your life. It’s a privilege. Because the band ended at one point, I know every gig could be the last. I know how fragile people in bands are. We’re never going to let this become ordinary again.” Suede Are Having the Best Decade of Their Lives:

obsessed with this 21 savage/Amadeus edit

Aw, wonderful character actor we were thrilled to see pop up in Reservation Dogs… must admit I always visualize him in Die Hard 3 just because I’ve seen it a million times. RIP

I’ve obsessively listened to everything Clint Mansell has done since ‘Pi’ and it is all excellent. Love that he seems to be breaking out recently, indie stuff is great but it’s time for him to get huge. Listen to this 👇

River had a nice sit-down in the garden this morning. I hope you can have a nice sit-down somewhere you love today, as well.

I do love a long holiday weekend!

Finally getting around to watching Season 2 of Twisted Metal and a few episodes in I’m like “this seems way better than the first season—am I remembering right?” Turns out I am and none other than @briantallerico.bsky.social has a write up that echoes my feelings! Just some weird, wonderful fun.

We happened to be driving around with River this morning when we spotted a @weratedogs.com enthusiast. Said hi to her on their behalf, naturally.

My favorite thing about this account is the absolutely brutal shade.

Just finished a full rewatch of Breaking Bad (again), so maybe I’ll get back to movies more frequently.

Wow, what a list. I appreciate both the depth to which they address the pros/cons of (nearly) all 21 films, and the ordering itself—the top of the list will drive some people MAD, but it’s totally valid! No filmmakers like them. apple.news/Ax4uK2SerRla...

All my gamer friends need to read this—really interesting and different take on challenge resolution in TTRPGs, fundamentally different from your typical d20/exploding d6s/etc. Very cool.

"Two thirds of your life is spent in your clothes." - it's like this advertisement doesn't even know me AT ALL! 🙄

This truly sucks.

call us old fashioned but, this account finds newsom's "check out my rock-hard AI nipples. they're absolutely glistening" platform less inspirational than pritz's "you fascists bring that shit here and I will personally fuck your asses up."

Oh good, saves me from having to complete the “why did you cancel your subscription” survey from @washingtonpost.com . This bullshit right here!

Criterion Closet, but for packaged software

Keith Moon and cat Moon was BOTD in 1946 #Caturday

Big news in the Rogers home today!

We were just discussing this very topic after watching Blood Simple last week. You really have to wonder.

Looks like I'm gonna have to tap the sign again today

I like to think of this as a portmanteau of “tofu torture.”

I like to read how a film affected someone whose lived experience is different from my own and in doing so practice empathy towards all.

We keep getting like a million versions of this… meanwhile, Prince’s shit stays locked in a vault. Where’s the justice in THAT???

Ugh, Garbage’s last tour… that’s a gut punch. 😭

Wasted no time seeing this, and as a massive fan, was. It at all disappointed. Fun archival footage, some stories I knew, some I didn’t, and excellent production. A film made in the spirit of its subject—got to love that.

House over Close Encounters? I think the Criterion Closet is doing some real work there.

Raw stage visuals for NIN's "The Great Destroyer," 2007-2014. Digital/analog glitching, datamoshing, mpeg/jpeg corruption, palpable rage at all the same shit as today. *strobe warning* See in context with band: youtu.be/Pqi_UZ1-EiU Read my in-depth design breakdown: www.patreon.com/posts/in-dep...

Terence Stamp's Reuters obit says "he was on the verge of becoming a tantric sex teacher at an ashram in India" which I think explains some of his excellent MindHead energy in Bowfinger.

RIP, Terence Stamp. One of the great ones. May need to do a Limey rewatch tonight.

We always have fun when mom is visiting… this time we realized she had never seen Burn After Reading or Bowfinger! Had to correct that immediately.

August, that devil in cargo shorts....
