I died laughing at this video that cuts together all the footage of Tucker Carlson talking about how he literally got attacked by a demon ghoul in his bed and Trump is a dark wizard PLUS the times he’s denied ever saying it. Had no idea he doesn’t just suck he’s actually batshit crazy.

Again this should inspire wall-to-wall media coverage for months. The crowning achievement of the Civil Rights Movement is dead. Black people just lost all of their remaining political power in the South. This is a monumental moment in American history that simply isn't being treated as such.

thunderstruck sounds like a song the gremlins from gremlins would make if you locked them in a Guitar Center

Um and now a Pulitzer Prize winner?? Congratulations Daniel holy heck

Imagine what the political, cultural & financial fallout would be if a videogame did anything close to a fraction of this?

Hey look what you end up doing a week after you see Speed Racer in IMAX

This isn’t about the quality of the movies; but why are movies right now about pop music so dark & downbeat? Smile 2, Mother Mary, Trap, Deliver Me From Nowhere. Meanwhile nothing more life affirming, funny & a punk fuck you to the oppressive order than a Chappell Roan or Lady Gaga concert.

That’s quite a chart www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

We’re in a legit constitutional crisis

This is what political violence really means

This is an all timer about movie directors as auteurs holy fuck

Another true story: once was cinematographer on a documentary hiking Canyonlands with park ranger guides & saw beautiful 3000 year old pictographs. Nearby some ugly graffiti like ‘John Boone is a craphead’ & I say it’s so sad someone defaced this now & ranger says ‘no that one dates from the 1800s’

Maegan is one of my smartest sharpest friends, & if you were on the picket lines her organizing work as a WGA captain helped us all out. (Remember when George RR Martin went all out to bat for us? She helped organize that). If she says this can help us swing a congressional seat then I’m in.

My pinned post is a 1990s Korean tv commercial with robocop selling fried chicken yes I do know how to find stuff on the internet my point is all of it is broken now

True story, years ago when Werner Herzog’s Cave of Forgotten Dreams first came out went to an early screening & afterwards asked him ‘what are we making now that will endure like cave paintings’ and he said ‘nothing’. Then he said ‘but you’re a very silly boy to be worried about 20k years from now’

Internet so fucking broken, should be greatest library in human history & it’s desecrated. Reminded I was at a musician’s first ever show in NYC only 15 years ago & can’t find any way to search it. Music sites covered it, all dead links. Can’t search google by year anymore. AI has rotted results.

need to come clean here: i was also at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner. but it was only to pee in the food with the other guys from Fight Club

He’s right tho I’ve never seen a movie tragedy about a podcaster turned FBI director whose alcoholism & chodeness has endangered the entire nation

I write screenplays for a living my entire house is a library of cursed and crushed dreams

Never seen someone’s entire soul was so empty it could perfectly fit into to a single tweet

Holy shit lol a perfect post

I don’t think it was staged but my alternate theory is he’s come down with the most hardcore case of pathology that JG Ballard wrote about in Crash and The Atrocity Exhibition, where car crashes and assassinations become the only thing that gives certain people joy

How come Shane Gillis gets to make jokes about how funny the assassination would be..?

This dorkwad is like if you took a character from Aaron Sorkin’s The Newsroom and injected it with the substance and a character from Glee emerged from its spinal cavity

“Political violence” = when it happens to elites in power instead of children

this is america. you could find yourself within 100yds of a shooting at any time, in any place. school, the grocery store, a movie theater, a block party, a public park… it happens to regular people every day. but this week we’ll get 50+ weepy op-eds because it happened to the guys who write op-eds

bald goebbels dutifully protecting elon’s next child

“Everybody needs to turn down the rhetoric.” -supporters of a guy who threatened to destroy an entire civilization of 90 million people

Anyone else merely whimsically thinking about rocket launchers and how funny they could possibly be..?

US corporate news media completely lost all relevance and credibility and debased themselves long before this whenever they let Trump say shit like ‘quiet piggy’ to a woman journalist with zero pushback

scientists gave cocaine to salmon and they wrote the best fuckin screenplay ever dude like check this shit out it's totally fire

I’m really worried for Adam Curtis right now

Bro, imagine the ratings if the president becomes a real ‘the running man’

We’ve hit the stage of hypernormalization where a shooting at the entire state corporate press apparatus and the president and cabinet will not lead to any change in gun legislation to protect schoolchildren

Haven’t seen them this happy this entire presidency

This is the first cowardly slime bag I’ve ever seen in history combine two human shields into one

What if they strategize the only way to regain some popularity before the midterms is for this to happen every week..?

It needs to be in history books that was the very moment billionaire Thiel, refreshed on infusions of teenager blood, stepped forward from the shadows and used the unassailable might of money to destroy journalism over ‘bubba the love sponge’ on behalf of all oligarchs

It’s really really hard to listen to this and not conclude we’re all in the middle of a flop psyop

We have fully hit late 1990s Russia hypernormalization levels

Not even kidding this is exactly what 50% of the Internet feels like in 2026

We need Shark Week but instead it’s wall to wall documentaries of millionaire hunters getting gored and trampled by endangered species and orcas attacking yachts

Hell yeah this week alone it’s: animals 2 millionaire pieces of shit 0

Like between this bit and the part where John Goodman has the best two lines in cinema history about ninjas, I’m not kidding when I say the Wachowskis were doing something that’s so hard to pull off in a screenplay: batshit crazy and lovingly sincere

The 80s stranglehold on pop culture nostalgia really needs to be studied in a lab. Movies set in 2004 are period films now!
