90% pedantry is just sparkling whataboutism.

IT CANNOT BE PREPARED MILD

I saw this at the Chattanooga Film Festival @chattfilmfest.org and it was so fun!!!! Go see it!

While maga is thin-skinned and looking for ways to silence opponents, my pet theory is maga was realizing the Kirk story was already starting to fizzle and their narrative isn't working, so they are hoping the (justified) outrage at censoring a much more well known figure will keep Kirk in the news.

It is utterly wild how clairvoyant last season of HACKS was. 😬

Bravery is fear entering your body.

So excited to add four more film festival laurels to my short "Tether" today! Stay tuned for more exciting news! And if you're in Kenosha, Tucson, Provo or Sydney, Australia, I'll post ticket info when I get it! To get a sneak peek of the film, here's the teaser trailer: bit.ly/tethertrailer

Whenever I see RFK I think of:

Jfc, is today STILL today???

The sluttiest thing a man can do is agree that you should nuke the site from orbit. It's the only way to be sure. 😉 @akelacooper.bsky.social @vidiots.bsky.social

I don't get the appeal of Odysseus. He feels like the most Main Character syndromer of any main character. If there were a vote, I wouldn't vote for Odysseus for king. He knew Agamemnon lied about WMDs and took his army into war anyway. I hope he suffered all the way home.

The level to which this is now stuck in my head is extreme

Fatigue!

That's a wrap on the 21st annual Oscar-qualifying HollyShorts Film Festival! What an awesome ride with the most impressive, wonderful people! We have more festivals coming up to announce soon!!! Watch the teaser trailer for my film Tether here: bit.ly/tethertrailer

I started following a witch on IG who gives... "advice"

Made a new friend at Midsummer Scream. He kept asking how I feel about cotton candy.

For anyone who missed my short film "Tether" screening Sunday night at the Oscar-qualifying HollyShorts Film Festival, you can still catch it online until August 24th! bit.ly/tetherbitpix #filmsky #scifi #festival #filmfestival

The premiere of my film "Tether" was a packed house of almost 500 people!!! Incredible! Proud to say when the big action sequence started, I heard a guy behind me whisper "Oh, shit!" The film is still available via the online version of the festival until August 24th: bitpixtv.com/orders/custo...

I can't wait to see my film "Tether" play at The Chinese in the Oscar-qualifying HollyShorts Film Festival! August 10th, 7:30pm. Thank you so much to all the wonderful people who made this film with me! Trailer: bit.ly/tethertrailer Tickets: bit.ly/tetherhollys... BTS: www.tethershortfilm.com

Horror short

Logline of the most recent Oscar-winning short film.

This is a horror short

How has 2025 treated you saw far?

This covers it

Finally catching up on Andor and all I have to say is (Benjamin) Bratt Summer

LOVED FANTASTIC FOUR!

You did you.

FINALLY an accurate representation of boob bones!

Water my plants? Sir. I barely water my organs.

Not now, ShipGoo --- oh wait. Y'know what? I give up. Now's fine. Go crazy crazy.

If you’re an elected Democrat (rightly) complaining about the GOP kicking 17 million people off of Medicaid, now is a good and credible time to critique the entire broken work-based non-universal US healthcare system. Now is the time to call for universal healthcare, for Medicare for All.

@chattfilmfest.org was incredible! What a lovely troupe of passionate, supportive, aggressively nerdy heroes! My film "TETHER" was so lovingly received! There are a few more days left to join virtually and catch up on all the goodness! I'm in the "Even More Dangerous Visions" block! bit.ly/tethercff

Hanging out in Nashville and I gotta say, I would love to see one of those drunken pedal shuttle groups fight a horde of zombies. PEDAL! DRANK! AIM FOR THE BRAIN!!!!!!

Too many people think of the US like too many people thought of the Titanic - unsinkable. Meanwhile, Trump is eyeing an iceberg and muttering... "...imma fight it."

Pepto Bismol. Breakfast of Champions.

At an outdoor concert. A very drunk birthday boy was given the microphone. He yelled "I love motherfucking alcohol!" The band leader got the mic back, "He said, blessed be the Christ. Don't mess with the word." And i don't know which was funnier. 😁

Whoever did this... ...was actually with me in another state the whole time

Every time I chortled out loud "That's a good one" another good one unfolded. Required reading 😆😆😆

I guess we shouldn't be too surprised at the terribleness of the combination fyre fest/four seasons landscaping army parade - trump's clique is made up of the types who never did the work on a group project.

I think a good rule of thumb is if your preferred source of news referred to yesterday's protest as "tens of thousands" and not "millions", you need to find a different news source.

CINEMA

THANK YOU FOR THE GOOD VIBES! My film "Tether" will have its premiere at the Chattanooga Film Festival! CFF was dubbed one of the "Top 25 Coolest Festivals in the World" by MovieMaker magazine and one of the "Best Horror Festivals in the World" by DreadCentral. Woohoo! bit.ly/tethercff
