This whole "Ireland needs a right wing presidential candidate" and "I'm being prevented from running" thing is funny because you only need 20 Oireachtas backers. You couldn't get 20 people to like you. Sounds like a skill issue tbh. #aras25

*to the tune of the activia commercials* suspiria

Bridge cancelled for Operation Market Garden joke; "took it too far"

One of the best That Guys

Someone else compared the Kimmel situation to Maher’s ABC show getting pulled after 9/11 when he said the terrorists, while reprehensible, were not cowards. Guess things repeat sometimes

Yeah man we should really fight back by staying on X

I love that Kathy Bates popped up in a bit role as Mrs. Green, the stenographer in DICK TRACY the same year that MISERY was released.

this is the funniest imaginable ancient aliens concept. taking a piece of extremely obviously stylized prehistoric art and being like "it's photorealistic actually". as if picasso was visited by humanoid aliens with their eyes on the same side like flounders

It was Maggie Cheung's 61st birthday yesterday!!

Jim Steinman writing songs for Streets of Fire

The Rapture - in the pop theology sense of Left Behind and suchlike - is pretty new theologically; a product of contemporary Protestant readings of the Bible. There’s nothing really like it in Catholicism for example

That kinda day today.

i resent how every time i do an internet search for something now the browser takes a guess at explaining what i am searching for at me. i know what i am looking for actually, do not presume i need it explained, how insulting

To put Brenda's remark in context: Fine Gael and Fianna Fáil are both running candidates and the Terenure Pharma Bro won't be spotted reading Slavoj Žižek or Naomi Klein anytime soon. What she is asking for is a *far* right candidate.

Charles Dance wanted to do an American accent in Rumours as he was playing an American President but Guy Maddin wouldn’t let him for the record

As Bluesky destabilizes a few people have asked me if I'm on Mastodon and look, I don't know if I'm Mastodon. No one knows if anyone is on Mastodon.

rip robert redford you would have loved paul newman

Laughing imagining Gul Dukat giving Winger speeches

just saw a tiktok from a disney adult reading from On Tyranny and asking their followers to cancel their d+ and disney trips omg

Well, also, even if you cancel you will be able to watch Disney until your contract expires - which could be anywhere between a month and a year depending on what you plan is. You could cancel now and leave that conversation to later. And if Disney caves you can reup and the kids would never know

Ok so you see Mark Hammil and Malcolm McDowell on there and you’re thinking “amazing, incredible”. Alright let me tell you: John “Gimli Rhys Davies is in this game. Tom “Biff” Wilson is in this game. Mark Dacascos is in this game. Casper Van Dien is in this game. WALTON GOGGINS IS IN THIS GAME

The debate around what is or isn’t “cancel culture” really just obscures a simple truth that it’s BAD to be massively racist/sexist/homophobic/transphobic and it’s GOOD to speak out against injustice. Some things are good and some things are bad and it’s okay to say which you think are which.

Personal favour to Burt Reynolds I assume

Media execs have fallen prey to a propaganda and harassment campaign that has completely divorced them from what people actually want right now. Both their insular information environments (group chats, podcasts) and ambient noise (Twitter reactionaries) have put them in a very stupid bubble.

THEY DEFORMED ME, COOP. REDUCED ME DOWN TO ONLY MY MOST RECOGNIZABLE CHARACTERISTICS. I’M A CUTESY SHELL OF MY FORMER SELF. THE BOYS AT QUANTICO ARE CALLING ME A “CHEE-BEE.” I’M SEVEN CENTIMETERS TALL, COOP. 150 GRAMS OF VINYL PLASTIC.

we started watching the americans and im really loving it but every episode description is “the jennings’ marriage faces another test: a potentially deadly spy mission” yeah dude i know

Another typical morning in town after Culture Night, sean-nós singers left strewn around the footpaths, poets carelessly stuffed under park benches, a lone interpretive dancer being gently blown around the square

good morning everyone

aw man

Reading about the origins of the name “the big apple” and holy shit

In 1992, Cryo Interactive released an adventure/strategy title based on Dune for PCs, published by Virgin Interactive. And later in the same year, Westwood (who was also partnered with Virgin), released their grand RTS, Dune II, expanding on the lessons learned from defending the Inner Sphere!

Jesus has a better claim to the throne of England than the Windsors

Happy Birthday, Paul Williams. youtu.be/y5jQYOcpVks?...

William S. Hart's signature one-handed cigarette roll in THE BARGAIN (1914)

Haha remember that movie Equilibrium. Anyway

If they were really the best, I don’t think they would lack conviction

Seated in the Lighthouse to see a movie. Why not

It’s about time we honored her

Not to excuse Disney's actions -- which are an unconscionable capitulation and an abandonment of first amendment principles -- but I think people just genuinely do not understand how much power affiliates wield in the broadcast TV game. Still! To this day!

cancelling Disney+ and Hulu is well and good but it’s not a huge hit on an individual level but Disney adults? people who spend real money at the parks? you guys can make a dent, call ‘em up and tell them your vacation is postponed until they pull their heads out of their asses
