would be funny if Iran was like "sorry, we can't negotiate this weekend. we've got a wedding to go to"

New boyfriend meme but it’s Lea staring at a Tony

Can't wait for this scene in the new movie

Is this supposed to be bad?

NO YOU SHOULD ASK WHICH SEAT, AMONG OTHER QUESTIONS

That first panel is what resonates in my head every time some asshole (including family!) claims that I, a New Yorker who has never set foot in Israel, cannot be safe without Israel. Especially the last line.

With the release of The Mandalorian and Grogu, we are going to see a big uptick in adoptions. As someone who works in Grogu rescue, I will remind you: when you adopt a Baby Yoda, you are committing to its 𝘧𝘶𝘭𝘭 𝘭𝘪𝘧𝘦𝘴𝘱𝘢𝘯. Grogus can live up to 900 years. They can also move shit around your apartment.

Mamdani: I cannot help but think of the words of our 40th president, Ronald Reagan. He famously said, “The nine most terrifying words in the English language are 'I'm from the govt & I'm here to help'" I think nine more terrifying words are actually, "I worked all day and can't feed my family"

Imagine being a billionaire in an unequal society where the system has been massively rigged in your favor, watching as ordinary people fall further and further behind and get more and more desperate, and thinking a slightly higher tax rate is the worst possible thing that might ever happen to you.

He’s offended because The Odyssey is about something near and dear to him: being an absent father while chasing vanity for 20 years

if i was going to give a college commencement speech i would make sure to start with something the students could rally behind. something like "we will mechanically suck the youth from your bones to feed a mechanical eschaton, which my generation will use to climb heaven and become new gods"

A dozen progressives supporting a far left position are lunatics we don’t need to consider seriously. But a handful of hayseeds who think racism is actually good for the country, they deserve a deeper understanding and possibly an article written about them every month.

Ok Kevin Sorbo posting this is honestly incredible bc one thing I loved about his Hercules was how accurate it was

this is why they need a ballroom, for god's sake

The Cyclops is canonically Sicilian so he must be an offensive Italian stereotype if we want to be historically accurate

This is not a "controversy" or a "dispute" about casting. It's a racist position being echoed and amplified by other racists. Journalists need to learn to use the word "racist" much more freely; right now, too many publications treat it as unprovable unless self-reported.

bored to encounter the approx. 836th semi-fake online outrage cycle of my career involving "historically accurate" casting in a movie, this time involving a movie that also has a cyclops in it

The Internet is disappearing before our very eyes and it’s why we should all support that absolutely critical work of @archive.org

Regional theatres making some bold choices with Stereophonic and I'm here for it.

pop, six, squish, uh-uh, cicero, lipschitz.

THEY MADE JIMMY CARTER SELL HIS PEANUT FARM.

It is soooooo weird, like off the charts PECULIAR, that the current president repeatedly refers to America as “the hottest country.” We need more people talking about how super fucking weird it is to say that. Like, does he want to fuck America. What the hell is happening?

I would like a personal apology from every man who called the station or emailed me personally to gripe about my voice during my time on public radio but never did the same to Ira Glass.

There will be more Graham Platners (and this is probably the only path forward in the south for a while). A party without its head in its ass would start sourcing ones without Nazi tattoos instead of recruiting candidates form doners.

I love that this is (probably) happening but mostly I'm struck by the confidence that it can and will be done in less than a month. pix11.com/news/transit...

Short version: yes, buttons are getting worse. Long version: by and large, apps and programs and websites these days are effectively dumb terminals -- when you click a button they do no processing on their own, and instead send the data to a central server, which sends a response back. (1/4)

I've maybe never clicked a link in an email so fast movingimage.org/event/all-th...

Mamdani has demonstrated something that Democrats have largely forgotten. You can't just do good things for voters and expect to be rewarded for it. You have to tell them about it, over and over again. You have to advertise your work in office just as much as you did on the campaign to win it.

When Dorothy wakes up at the end of Wizard of Oz, the threat to Toto seems to be gone— did Mrs Gulch not survive the tornado? Either Dorothy’s anger manifested the killer storm, or, more chillingly, when she kills in her dreams, the victim dies in real life.

I think I still have some postcards from this campaign.

forgot a present for mom? why not spend 30 or so years turning into her

It's The Muppet Show with our very special guest star The Cigarette Smoking Man!

People who don’t have kids in public school subsidize people who do. People who don’t drive on city-maintained streets subsidize people who do. We are all the subsidized and the subsidizers when things are operating normally; let’s not do this silliness.

There is nothing that sounds faker than hearing someone describe the kids shows they grew up with if they are not your exact age.

Oh my. This is spectacular. sinceyouarrived.world/taken

We mock Grover, for why should a monster be afraid of monsters? But are we all not afraid of the inevitable ending when we must confront our own true selves? Do we not construct barriers to postpone that dreadful day, knowing that are flimsy, knowing that they must fail?

I am shocked, SHOCKED to discover that the oil and gas companies are using the oil crisis as cover to also price gouge. if all they were doing was passing along the increased expense, their profits would not have doubled.

Bert and Ernie should have their own show. I don't want to have to watch Sesame Street to see what they're up to. I'm not 5

The distance between how much I enjoy seeing theatre and how much I enjoy being in a theatre is enormous.
