Collected editions were important to have because you used to not be able to take a portable supercomputer with all the world's books, movies, and games on it into the bathroom when you poop.

Remember when Thunderbolts* did a marketing campaign acting like it was an A24 art house movie? I hope Street Fighter does that with some "The Testament of Chun-Li" posters.

I was so waiting for this sound to be in the Mummy trailer youtu.be/G8qhrURrQbI?...

Imagining a real Homer Simpson/Frank Grimes scenario where the one guy from Succession that takes himself super seriously loses to a big happy dog at the Academy Awards and everyone is just cheering and clapping for the big happy dog as the Succession guy yells at them

i think most species of bird could probably perform this calculation with absolute 100% accuracy

Slightly diminish a game Penultima

So many normal celebrations here have been muted or entirely absent the past year, I don't even mind the fireworks going off now

If there's not a killer stained glass window in it, then I do not accept it as a Young Sherlock Holmes.

This is the first time since I moved to Chicago where the Bears are kinda good and the city is already insane.

The two types of cinephile have really been encapsulated by me crying at Frank Capra's You Can't Take it With You last night, and my boyfriend contemplating getting me to watch William Lustig's Maniac today by saying: 'I don't know. You don't really like scalping, do you.'

(Going to see a band I like) this is a cool room. I hope they start to constantly email me about every single event that goes on in here.

Not what I was expecting to see when throwing on a random Tubi horror movie

Watched the "They Will Kill You" trailer and I did not realize it was a new entry in the best genre: one person fights an entire building youtu.be/AqNFJUihSHg?...

Everyone is (rightfully) dunking on this news but I choose to look at it this way. Sir Ian deserves as many quick paychecks as he can sleepwalk through. He’s earned the right to cash grab. And this check will allow Elijah to help fund another 10 weird indie passion projects for oddball filmmakers.

The new Ribbit game on @puzzmo.com is so good I'm angry there's just one a day

GenAI's whole thing is spitting out a prediction of what it thinks the user wants. But my favorite art, the stuff that really digs in and connects with me, is work that defies expectation. I want an abrasive album I hate at first but then come back to later and REALLY listen and fall in love

I think a big issue with content slop evolving in general is that I am already in a place where I’m not going to get caught up with every game in my Steam library and every movie and tv show I have on various watch later lists. Like who the fuck is going to pay real life money for an AI movie

Honey, I Drilled the Kids

In absolutely no universe is Ferris Bueller a Cabaret Voltaire fan.

my hope for 2026 is they start closing their mouths in YouTube thumbnails

“Why are Americans mistrustful of AI?” asks the morning briefing thing I’m skimming while I “no” through literally a dozen questions being asked to me by a robot who stands between me and the person I need to talk to to schedule the x-ray that I really, really need

Most messed up thing in No Other Choice is that it posits a world where a bunch of Korean middle managers beat out Jarvis Cocker to win the coveted Pulp Man of the Year award.

NO OTHER CHOICE (2025)

My new film, THE LITTLE ENGINE THAT KILLED, is available on Tubi, Night Flight Plus, and Xumo today. I put a lot of heart and soul into this last week when I found out The Little Engine That Could was going to enter public domain. There are some great kills in it, I really hope you enjoy it.

Discovered my wife and I had vastly different interpretations of the Stranger Thing finale depending on whether one hears the a location as "Vallaki" (a town from the Ravenloft campaign) or "Milwaukee" (a normal human word)

MTV is officially ending all of its music channels. In honor of that, what's your favorite music video?

If you start "Itchy & Scratchy Land" tonight at 11:46pm at 52 seconds, you will ring in the new year with T.G.I. McScratchy's. #HappyNewYear #TheSimpsons #PleaseKillMe

Watching an upcoming streaming movie (under embargo, sorry) which begins at an intense moment of crisis. I've been conditioned to wait for the story to then jump back "12 Hours Earlier" or whatever, but no. The story just kept moving forward. Refreshing!

It's here! The 2025 Action Cinema recap! An overview of the year's most interesting action films. Everything from Ne Zha 2 and Avatar 3 to Last Bullet, Kantara and The Prosecutor, to smaller gems like The Forbidden City, Tatsujin Warriors, and many more! youtu.be/74ckedulSgo

I enjoy coming up with anagrams for “Spider-Man.” PS I’m a nerd.

Hate when I get 80-90% through a game that lets me play at my own pace, and then at the very end they introduce the first timed segment also on an impossible challenge not like other platforming sections I've done before, with a lighting filter that makes it hard to tell where it's safe to stand.

Someone asked for less birds so they got BLOCKED !!! 2026 will be filled with birds !!!!

At the age where a seed of an idea is rattling around in my brain, "I should get really into King Crimson". It hasn't taken root yet and I have no idea why it's even there. At least it's not Steely Dan.

Savage moment at this Bulls game where they did a karaoke cam for Taylor Swift and nobody knew the words. Like 20 different crowd shots of white women not singing along until finally an 11 year old knew it. Then they switched to HUNTR/X and everyone sang along. An old bearded flannel dude killed.

Started playing The Seance of Blake Manor and I wish it had an option to throw a sheet over my head and skulk around the hotel making ghost noises

Al Swearengen wouldn’t have any time at all for any of that Stranger Things stuff, I’ll tell you that much

Watching THE GREEN KNIGHT again

STRANGER THINGS GIVING BUTTHOLE SURFERS THE KATE BUSH TREATMENT?!

Ashley while watching Stranger Things: "So what's the difference between a wizard and a sorcerer and I already regret these words coming out of my mouth"

2024: Challengers 2025: Marty Supreme 2026 needs an arthouse Pong movie

Look what someone did to the new Avengers trailer dyyyyying www.tiktok.com/t/ZTr3hr2A6/

YouTube has the Pee-Wee's Playhouse Christmas Special. You know what to do.

And to Tiny Tim, who died but could apply gathered resources to permanent skill upgrades for his next run at Christmas

Incredible that when all is said and done, the most normal person to have ever owned an island was Marlon Brando

Oh no I fucked up bad and am now seated with the family for something called "Martyrs Supreme"

After 9 days at their Memphis hub waiting to clear customs, it finally went on the move last Friday and made a stop at Olive Branch, MS. Today it is back at their Memphis hub. The package originally shipped on November 24.

I'm on vacation and got someone to cover for me on the early morning server checks, so was looking forward to not waking up at 5:30AM for the first time in months and maybe even getting a full night's sleep. Last night a smoke detector got a low battery at 2:30AM.

I'm on vacation and going to the gym in the morning instead of the evening and somehow that is infinitely more exhausting.

After months or even years of sitting vacant, this week signs went up at storefronts on my block for an acai bowl place, an Italian sandwich shop, and a Yemeni coffee shop. Plus the maker space is expanding with a woodworking section. Can't keep Chicago down.

There are so many people where it's not just having to know about them, but also hearing about them every single day.
