Make them ride circuit. Cancel a Supreme Court term. No more clerks. And strip jurisdiction.

who was beating all the wives while everyone was at the memorial?

none of you told me that there was a fourth season of the Alan Partridge podcast so you're all on my shitlist

Los Angeles! You can see me live at Tao Studios on 9/21! I mean. Performing live, I mean. I don't live there. Although I think there's a shower in one of the bathrooms so I guess I COULD live there but I'd appreciate privacy if I did.

i will kill a motherfucker coming for any of my trans friends

a key reason they see an opening for such a blatant speech crackdown is that they already did one to Palestinian and anti-genocide activists and it got enthusiastic bipartisan approval

it rocks that Joe Shishido was around for some of these V-cinema movies

i can't believe it but i am genuinely shocked by the complete rubes like obama eulogizing kirk as if he's a good faith political actor and not the two-bit astroturfed shit demon whose only purpose was to bilk used car salesmen of their money by inflaming their prejudices

I hate Israel!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My feed: “Breaking news! Another movie you kinda like that you’ve already bought three times on every emerging format is coming out on 4K! Retail price is $59.99 but there will be a Steelbook for a little more.” #physicalmedia

DURAN!

There isn't a single Philadelphia pro sports team currently active that isn't on top of their division. #FlyEaglesFly #RingTheBell #DOOP

for some reason this is on a 4K disc but it was super cheap so happy to have grabbed it and now rewatching

God damn, The Suitcase is really one of the best episodes of TV ever

Aside from the moral and ethical bankruptcy of this, here’s the twist: The widely seen and widely available ‘compromised’ cut of The Magnificent Ambersons is an a cinematic masterpiece. No filmmaker living or dead and certainly no computer tech could equal the opening six minutes of that film.

Friday

Good morning and go birds

i put on an episode of Mad Men with the plan of watching one episode and then a movie and get sucked in and can't stop watching Mad Men

rewatching Mann's Public Enemies which I haven't seen since 2009 and biggest change in my opinion is that the digital cinematography looks fucking cool during the little bohemia raid. it's so immediate and grounding.

Best first watches of August 2025: Twisted Issues (Pinion, 1988) Melvin & Howard (Demme, 1980) Cloud (Kurosawa, 2024) Neo Chinpira: Zoom Goes the Bullet (Banmei Takahashi, 1990)

KYLE MVP SCHWARBER

starting in on that Arrow V-Cinema set

My daughter had her first travel soccer team game today (they won) and after the game they did their cheer which is “Red Eagles!” My wife couldn’t make it out and asked what they said and my mother in law said, very loud and obliviously, “Spread Eagles!”

How about those Spurs?! #coys

physical media nerd moment: i am so mad that 4K catalog releases are almost exclusively steelbooks now

nearing the end of my rewatch of season 1 of mad men and it's truly a gem

Watched Eggers’ Nosferatu. I thought it was great. I’m down for his whole deal tbh

rewatching Something Wild As a Pennsylvanian I appreciate that Lulu is from PA. I also doubly appreciate the sign advertising scrapple which is a definitive PA food

after talking about it for literally decades, i finally did it

Insane war criminal country

Finished this today and loved it . Some nice hard SF

I’m now officially radioactive

Started watching Police Squad! So damn funny. Never knew that Joe Dante directed two episodes!

Reminds me when there used to be a roller derby league on cable on Saturday mornings

Tom Scharpling called Creedence Clearwater Revival “America’s Beatles” and I think he was 100% right

random thought: The Black Crowes were a uniquely Gen X phenomenon that gained no purchase in subsequent generations

Was sick all weekend but a plus was I watched Barry Lyndon with my non movie obsessed wife last night on the new criterion 4k. She loved it. It remains a masterpiece to me
