2026 watch #1: Phantom Thread. I’m just a girl looking for a hungry boy to gently poison into adoring submission.

"Young mayor gets caught using police gym for pickup basketball" is the plot of a kids movie where the mayor is the hero

You have to really, really, really fucking suck for your 8th grade teacher to come out and shame you like this. Damn.

It really is okay to have opinions and preferences without having to convince yourself and the world that your thing is actually morally and politically correct

Video games has decided to discontinue its once leading product, the video game

I haven’t even seen the film and I’ll never forgive the people who let Taika Waititi direct Klara and the Sun

There’s a little boy lying in a cart at the grocery store mainlining AI slop videos on his mom’s iPhone at full volume while she ignores him and we’re just so cooked, man. You think the kid’s can’t read now, just wait 20 years.

French people:

Selfie train. Repost this and show us a moment when you felt gorgeous

The part of the election runup where every day brings videos of Trump getting up in front of some battleground audience in his dumb hat and going "frankly you're terrible people, really disgusting. A bunch of stupid people and their awful kids. [long break for laughter and applause] Ugly as shit,"

Joe Biden’s one job was to prevent Trump from ever happening again. That was it! The thing we expressly elected him to do! And he whiffed it! He wouldn’t do the politically hard and necessary things, and now look where we are. He was an abject failure by the only measure that matters.

Man who won’t give his employees piss breaks claims many piss breaks on the horizon

Looking good and alive and not at all haunted, Ms. Dell.

It‘s neck and neck between a normal guy and that dude Rorschach killed in his origin story

Interesting situation where I have to be very circumspect with my words all the time and the president can openly suggest annihilating specific cities in my state.

Earlier this week, I agreed to interviews with two USA Today journalists. They wrote fantastic articles about the Cornell case that I'm proud to have been a part of. What I did not know is that their employer considers interviews to proprietary and opens up recordings to be used by any journalist.

I remember having to sleep with the lights on after my parents let me watch Poltergeist when I was, what, like 4? Then they let me watch Child’s Play when I was 6 and we had to throw My Kid Sister doll away, I was so traumatized. The 80s were wild, man.
