Rewatching before I see how it ends on the big screen. I swear the chemistry between these two has been even better off script.

Dinosaurs went so hard

The way too many people actively avoid talking about the unreliability of one of the most famous unreliable narrators in all of the literary canon is really something.

the only good accent work on earth is old money transatlantic american to make fun of rich people accent

the average first-time home buyer age is the highest it's ever been at 38. that's because nobody has the money to afford a house anymore. except, apparently, the people who pick our fruit and clean our homes

just a reminder this guy slashed the tires on his much younger female coworkers tires to trick her into getting in his car he was married at the time

This is now the only lore I care about

Printers and computers treat each other like they broke up the night before and you’re they’re mutual friend

This is of course a made-up number, and there'd be *fewer* homes/apartments with a construction worker shortages caused by Trump policies, and a million other problems, but "by right"? So... a right to housing? Careful there, JD Mamdani, don't want to accidentally screech your way into socialism!

This number is completely made up. There are not 30 million undocumented immigrants. The most recent estimates are around 14 million, of which roughly 8 million people have been here for over a decade. Vance is not a fool. He knows this. DHS produces official estimates. They don’t say 30 million.

They're really trying to say undocumented immigrants are taking out housing now and making it more expensive. Just think about that. That's not even taking into factor the usual misinformation, such as saying there is a population of 30 million when estimates range at around 11 million.

Not even fifteen minutes and Wild Reeds is all in

Finally watching

One of my favorite holiday romcoms where I do not root for the main couple

Late night comfort viewing

Saw that Michael trailer and looks like things are about to get realllll awkward. As in new Bohemian Rhapsody?

Sooo that Mariah Christmas ad really is as disturbing as I was warned it would be. I don't know why I didn't think corporate America wouldn't so openly and sadistically laugh at people opting out of holiday shopping for things like rights and food.

The only time I've wanted a pope to come to Chicago so he can bring the shame. I knew it had come to this, but the world is officially insane now.

A friend just pitched in again! $1545 needed now to cover November bills! We're getting closer, thank you all so much for all of your help!! Paypal: affirmationgin at gmail Cashapp/venmo: showupforthis

Good things are possible and we don’t have to settle.

I don't think I've ever been happier for a city I don't reside in. Can't wait to see what's in store for NYC!

dick cheney dead

I don't know what will happen in NYC tonight, but I do know that regardless of outcome, any number of public figures, celebrities, politicians and institutions that oppose Mamdani have done so with a level of rhetorical ugliness, racism, and dishonesty that should neither be forgotten nor forgiven.

The Raven will always be have one of my all time favorite casts ever

🚨BIG changes happening -- ICE leadership is being purged tonight. The old guard, which prioritized targeted enforcement operations aimed at people with criminal records, is being replaced with Border Patrol and Gregory Bovino's "Midway Blitz" style. Think things are bad now? It'll get worse.

Most plastic items are too small for recyclers to bother sorting and processing, or they're assembled in such a way that it's less expensive to just make new plastic. In fact, only 5% of Americans’ plastic finds new life. (Published Aug. 2024) By @lisalsong.bsky.social

Fran Fine knew

"I thought to myself that if the opportunity ever came my way to have to get involved in one of these situations, I was certainly going to do what I could to make sure that they weren't openly and flagrantly violating the law or the Constitution. And yet, they just went ahead and did it anyway."

Right this is a thing now jfc

I love that Chicago cinephiles lined up for the Criterion Closet at the Chicago International Film Festival on a cold and rainy day...I mean one even ducked so I could get a better picture 😂

Whistle zine folding party and No Kings! Been that kind of weekend.

They're really gonna make these bikers parodies of themselves aren't they

So...Frankenstein. I've seen sooooo many versions of Daddy Issues the Movie, and it tracks that Guillermo del Toro would make one of the more enjoyable versions. A dark, often surprisingly funny blood-soaked delicacy.

if we'd treated their obvious baldfaced lies and deflections more like this over the past eight years maybe we wouldn't be in this situation shocking how easy it is when you actually see it done

Damn this is satisfying and calling these people on their bs should not be rare

s/o to everyone from working class backgrounds in the arts and entertainment who clawed their way to where they are without the benefit of family wealth, career experience, or connections

Even if we get to keep Dolly Parton 2025 didn't have to do this to us 😭

Continuing the seasonal viewing by going back to basics

Of course this queen would be the one who schools Wednesday Addams

Derek Cianfrance showed up at the Roofman screening...and yeah, if this wasn't true, I'd never believe it.

They’re targeting New York Attorney General Letitia James for one reason: she had the courage to hold Donald Trump accountable. This is political weaponization of our courts, plain and simple—and proof that when you stand up to corruption, they come for you.

I feel like this photo of masked, armed men pepper spraying a pastor protecting his community is going to be a defining picture of this moment in America for a long, long time.

Why can't we have opening credits like this anymore

I am now officially accredited press for the Chicago International Film Festival! So anyone looking for coverage, reviews, from an experienced writer, interviewer, and RT-certified film critic, feel free to get in touch!

ICE just blatantly violated the law and arrested sitting Chicago Alderperson Jessie Fuentes while seeking to illegally arrest a patient in a hospital. Fuck these fascists.

Yes I'm late to this, and yes KPop Demon Hunters still rocks

Liberal democracy: better than the alternative it turns out.

😭

I always love revisiting one of my favorite cinematic anti-heroines this time of year

Also I feel like I cannot afford to despair, and others can afford it even less. We've seen that people can stand up and make a difference, so let's meet this moment in a way future generations can be proud of.
