Looks up "How long does it take to convert to Catholicism..."

NO NO ABSOLUTELY UNACCEPTABLE NO.

KC: Bleak Week at Stray Cat Film Center starts on Sunday! There's good stuff in here you should see. Read about it!

Is it cheating if you pick a career character actor? Because like, I could pick Clancy Brown or Keith David and have a LOT of movies, plenty of bangers included.

Y'all, Patricia sorting clothing donations and listening to Enya...I don't know that I've ever identified that hard with a fictional character in my life.

I loved this so much I drew it

There's a crew removing a dead tree in my neighbor's yard with chainsaws and wood chippers. Meanwhile, this creature is ASLEEP. I do not understand it.

I remember reading the first volume of Persepolis in one sitting at my high school library. I put a copy in the Little Free Library in front of my house. I watched the film adaptation the day I voted in my first presidential election. This is heartbreaking.

I haven't gotten to watch Widow's Bay yet this week. But my mom has. And she dug it.

We don't talk enough about how great Nicholas Galitzine is in BOTTOMS. We also don't talk enough about BOTTOMS in general.

This is how you end up cursed.

Y'all it finally happened. I found a drunk horny lady at an airport bar hitting on a cute young guy.

CYCLE OF HATE and then the pic is this

Just tonight I saw two Waymos pass each other on Santa Monica blvd and I swear I felt something in my brain pop.

Y'all, this pizza place has the following: -A sad dude playing Goldfinger on his keyboard -A small child who said "Thanks water machine" after using the water cooler -A bartender yakking about a writing project and saying "Hitchcock would do it!" Santa Monica is magic, I am never leaving.

Did y'all know this is what kikuyu grass looks like??? Did you????

But just you wait, the studio takeaway is absolutely gonna be "Throw money at content creators."

Ok, Erewhon is almost certainly bullshit, but damn if that's not the prettiest (and tastiest!) breakfast croissant I've ever seen at a grocery hot bar.

Y'all, Crimson Tide made me almost pee my pants three different times, that was NUTS.

Oh no I think I might like LA. Don't tell my parents.

You could write a whole screenplay retrofitted to this one line.

Y'all what is the ride-share lot at LAX. Why does it feel like Fyre Fest?

A cool thing is finding out your work trip hotel is 7 minutes from the Aero theater and also that you can make your job reimburse you for an Erewhon smoothie. I'm gonna get so much "done."

I've been waiting and waiting for the 21st Century New Hollywood moment to get here, and for other folks to notice how close we are. I just hope we're able to pull it together before the whole industry implodes.

Dragon Sound announce they have dropped out of the Freedom 250 concert lineup youtu.be/oVtyOwcQo-w

Wyeth is smart. Be like Wyeth.

If you hate this shit I’d recommend supporting @alotrolado-org.bsky.social alotrado.org

I might consider trying to amp myself up and get over my deep-seated fear of mannequins and/or haunted houses for this one.

The leaf removal guys are here being loud. I walked in and found them like this.

Y'ALL.

Boo.

I've been on a years-long slow campaign to get my parents to like horror. It's culminated with them watching and loving Widow's Bay. Every week I think "I dunno if they'll make it through this one," and every week, we end up talking about how good it was. I am glowing with pride. GLOWING.

I dunno about y'all, but I'm starting to think it's a bad sign if Hamish Linklater shows up in your remote New England island community.

That moment when you remember you have leftover Texas sheet cake for dessert.

I will defend KC BBQ with my life, but I don't care for either Gates OR Arthur Bryant's. Sour-tasting sauce, fatty burnt ends.

MINNEAPOLIS! It is happening again! Go go go!

🎶 Well, the word got around, they said, "This kid is insane, man" Took up a collection just to send him to the mainland "Get your education, don't forget from whence you came, and The world's gonna know your name, what's your name, man?"

Roger Corman: Ron said he’d star in the Grogu picture but only if he could direct. Ron Howard: Roger said there have to be six breasts, two guns, and a minute of Grogu. Then Jack Nicholson misses with the crossbow and actually shoots Grogu. Jack Nicholson: That little man bled like a chicken Kiev.

This. It's this.

I've got this on my list of stuff I'd do if I had a time machine.

Make sure you do your tick checks, kids. 'Tis the season.

Memorial Day grave visitations are a great way to learn about family history. For instance, today I learned I have a distant great-uncle who operated on his own hemorrhoids "with a razor blade and a mirror." So. There's that.

A day after The Late Show ended, Colbert hosted an episode of public access program Only In Monroe, reviving his 11-year-old gag. How bad is CBS/Paramount taking it? They issued copyright complaints for a show they don't own. 🤣 CBS would hate it if you watch here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=7DlF...

It's his day.

First proper sunlight we've had in almost a week, and the cats are OVERJOYED.

The one good thing about my giant yard is that I can host chill concerts.

It's true! Valnet has destroyed and/or cheapened the livelihoods of many writers whose work you probably enjoy!
