I was mad about this so I blogged about it for @ballsandstrikes.org

If only there was some kind of major historical event that happened 10 years ago in Britain that might explain the utter chaos that has ensued in that country. Oh well, I guess we'll never know

Taking up the mantle of #1 Toy Story 5 Hater. The more I think about that movie, the more annoyed I get.

Me trying to watch a film every day: Haha fuck yeah!!! Yes!! Me writing a review of every film I watch: Well this fucking sucks. What the fuck. Me admiring my Letterboxd stats: Haha fuck yeah!!! Yes!!

COME TOGETHER: A NO SURPRISES MYSTERY

Today's my birthday. My boss asked me for my permission to email the team so everyone could say happy birthday to me. I said yes, and then he sent an email with my LinkedIn profile pic fed through AI to animate it. I would like to retract my permission.

I loved this so much I drew it

At the Bleak Week showing of Deliverance at the Coolidge and the pre-movie music is Lynyrd Skynyrd. Oh hell yeah.

A hearty Welcome Back to the legend @adamxii.bsky.social

Who designed this? No, seriously, who the fuck designed this? I just wanna chat.

Doctor, I’m woefully underinformed about the employment status of the Alito family. Ah, the cure is simple. Go read the writing of the great reporter Jose Pagliery. But doctor, I am Pagliery!

truly fb marketplace is a place of wonder and terror

Watching The Way of the Dragon, the only movie Bruce Lee wrote and directed. The English dialogue feels like the fight scenes: a couple of quick words with barely any actual back and forth. I still don't know why the film is set in Rome when literally no one has spoken Italian.

In the past few years, my kids have become obsessed with playing Donut County with me. I do the voices in all the cut scenes, and it brings me peace to do this. I give Salt and Pepper upper midwest accents. I think it amuses me more than them, but I still do it.

She hundred acre on my wood until I pooh

Reasons recorded for worker absence on this 3,250 year-old ancient Egyptian attendance register include ‘brewing beer’🍺 ‘stung by a scorpion’ 🦂 and ‘embalming brother’! 🤯 From Deir el-Medina, royal tomb worker’s village 📷 by me #Archaeology

Not me sending absurdly long text messages to the group chat laying out the entire weekend's worth of rep screenings that I can go to, begging someone to join me.

The blockade, which is an act of war, is still in place, yes? Then I'm not sure we can say that the war is over.

don't worry everyone

My playlist came up with Frightened Rabbit, and I feel like we're at a point in culture where I can say I miss Scott Hutchison and nobody will know what I'm talking about

The Brave Little Toaster was the scariest children's film ever

Week 2 is an incredible success. We're seeing small goals and then taking the momentum from accomplishment and doing so much more. Even if we backslide in future weeks, the progress we've made is massive.

If the blockade is still in place, then presumably the Strait is still closed. And this is the new indefinite state of affairs? At what point does the stock market crash when they all realize the Strait is closed and oil prices will skyrocket even more?

I told my wife I wanted us to set actual tangible goals for us to accomplish every weekend because we fall into these habits of not doing enough and falling further and further behind in basic housework. And for this first weekend, it's been a massive success! Let's see how it goes long term...

It’s pretty fucked up that the Nintendo Switch gave all the old games a rewind feature so people can just do that every time they mess up instead of doing what we did which is stop enjoying the game

My "not involved with Jeffrey Epstein" press conference has people asking a lot of questions already answered by my press conference.

Perfect Days (2023, Dir Wim Wenders)

The thing about this is that there *is* a path to redemption for people like Louis CK. Honest contrition and attempts to make amends would go a long way towards earning some sort of redemption. He just didn't take this path, so there is no reason to give him forgiveness he hasn't worked for.

My 9 year old is home sick and attempted to put a Kick Me sign on my back. D- for originality, D- for execution, A+ for still being so cute

This is literally the plot of Good Luck, Have Fun, Don't Die

America has not fully reckoned with the fact that, despite destroying many military targets, Trump has made Iran more powerful than it has been in the past century.

Trying something that I hope will make my relationship significantly better but will likely make it significantly worse. Why am I doing it? Because I'm incredibly stupid.

Thinking about that time my sister-in-law suggested to my wife that I was cheating on her when I go out at night despite my extremely active Letterboxd and the photos I take of every movie ticket I buy. You need to work harder than that to accuse me of dumb shit.

There are a thousand versions of this, but I still think about how people said Brad Bird clearly believed in the line "when everyone's special, no one is" when the line is spoken twice in the film, once by a 10 year old and once by the villain.

ngl the updated branding for @bsky.app is bold

Jon Bois @jonbois.bsky.social i ate some raisins | | View full thread | LinuxGlen @linuxglen.bsky.social I didn't say Daniel Tiger was feudalist. I said *the Neighborhood of Make-Believe* is clearly aligned with paleofeudalist thought. | Neil Media @neilmedia.bsky.social You're still accountable.

Why is the world in love again? Why are we marching hand in hand? Why are the ocean levels rising up? It's a brand new record for 1990. They Might Be Giants' brand new album.......FLOOD

Introducing Wicked Queer 42. This year’s theme is Queer Audacity, a reminder that we need to celebrate, uplift, and to own our collective and personal power as Queer people. We picked a symbol this year to represent this energy, The Lavender Rhinoceros. Running from Gaypril 3-16, 2026.

I watched this last night. Great with an audience

Trying out a new display name. Is it too niche?

Real ones understand on a basic level that this will fund the next World Cinema Foundation set, among other wonderful releases that I am excited to discover.

figured out how to make this website usable, finally

"Hey There, Delilah" by the Plain White Ts. The guy's voice is nails on a chalkboard. The guitar is so fucking boring. How did this become popular? Why did society inflict this upon ourselves?

A good mother doesn't trust experts. She goes reads Consumer Reports, which is fully staffed by people who have no idea what they're talking about. That's how you know you can trust them.

If I ever develop a Western-themed drag persona, I'm going by the name Sergio Corbussy

Any time I hear "you haven't seen enough bad movies if you think X is among the worst," I can't help but think "no shit, I try not to watch bad movies if I'm not forced to. I thought this one might be good and it wasn't."

Life hack: if you've completely given up on hoping your loved ones will know what to get you for the holidays, buy it yourself, give it to your loved ones to wrap, and then forget you bought it. Instant success!

My "this is no way affects my position as Governor of Louisiana!" t shirt has people asking a lot of questions already answered by my shirt
