Drastically overlong movie not many people feel the need to see not making money in other words

Ah, just now I heard someone on NPR taking about voters who are "right of center," as opposed to right-wingers--which is obviously what they are.

So were Lance Oppenheim and Nathan Fielder just like, "Hey, we should do a project together!" "Yeah, totally! But what possible topic would justify it? Hold on, I'm getting a call from an E. Holmes, I guess I'll take it . . ."

Here, helping out the folks in the publicity department cause that's the kind of nice guy I am

Vivek Ramaswamy looks like a subcontinental Beavis

It's very frustrating to be building an incredible property in Tentpole, just a perfect, stellar cast for your R-rated war-set revenge thriller only to get stuck with Brett Ratner as a director.

I watch football because it's so thrilling to see my hometown team cover the spread

Reminding my kid why he hates playing Scrabble with me by laying BESTIES across a triple-word square.

What if The Big Chill, but go-nowhere spooky, with lots of dumb red herrings and dopey loose ends.

I always love the Scaramucci phase of a Trump presidency, when the turnover of inept bozos in the White House really starts to pick up speed

Trump having to publicly back down on the televised-execution thing means Pete Hegseth ought to start looking for a new job pronto.

New least favorite ever string of words just dropped: "Ross Douthat's YA fantasy novel"

Man, all along I thought "Girls" and "Golden Girls" were already a "Young Sheldon"-"Big Bang Theory" situation

I sure have been getting a lot more spam calls since I switched to T-Mobile. @t-mobile.bsky.social

My theory is that one time, decades or even centuries ago, one guy, making his way through a crowded marketplace, slipped on a discarded banana peel and everyone who who saw it thought it was the funniest thing ever and told all everyone they know about it, and . . .

Must I think terribly poorly of myself if I give up on The Disappearers a little bit less than halfway?

The Jaws poster on the wall is PERSONALLY HURTFUL youtu.be/OrPpC-HLZPs?...

Problem is the bullets are just going to bounce off ol' Non here

I would like to see I Play Rocky but it's M. Night Shyamalan getting The Sixth Sense made

This is awful but also what's up with that podracer in the foreground

Planning to force my kids to watch Die Hards 1-3 so they can properly contextualize a Halloween viewing of The Sixth Sense.

Man, every episode of this most recent season of Slow Horses is even stupider than the last.

Made the life-affirming decision to simply block anyone who posts to commemorate a famous person's birthday with the phrase "X number of candles today for . . ."

Weird book. Not funny at all. But still fairly recognizable as a Richard Russo novel.

Maybe you, like me, chose not to see The Breadwinner--the Nate Bargatze movie--in the theater because it looked painfully retrograde, but if you, like me, have an 8-year-old in the house you might see it on tv now and you, like me, will realize that it's even worse than you imagined.

I always forget that the Slow Horses tv show is much dumber than I expect it to be.

I'm quite aware that nobody does any proofreading in academic publishing anymore, but I guess they've given up on it in trade circles as well?

No, @t-mobile.bsky.social, I don't want anything to do with fucking Starlink.

I love nextdoor.

If you're thinking of reading The Ministry of Time read this instead.

Avengers: Doomsday releases in a couple of months, and I've never seen my 15-year-old more excited about getting advance tickets for a movie. Sorry--those two statements are unrelated. The movie he's pumped to see tomorrow night is Primetime. I feel like I've done a good job.

Why does this building look like a big shark? Shouldn't that have been reserved for the Spielberg Museum?

I haven't been too worried about the threat from AI but Donald Trump just claimed that it's a hoax and now I'm terrified

If you haven't canceled your subscription to The Washington Post yet DO IT NOW.

Zach Cherry and Paul Walter Hauser are both in the new Resident Evil but this is not good enough for me, I want a movie with the two of them headlining, playing brothers.

The Living was one of the worst books I've ever tried to get through.

Listening to Adam Jentleson on Brian Lehrer, he's got a new book coming out and I've got to assume that if this interview is anything to go by, the book will have the words "y'know" on pretty much every other line.

My policy proposal: There should be no such thing as wills and estates. Give it away while you're alive if you want to, but after you die anything left over should go straight to the Social Security Administration to liquidate and use.

What if instead of causing human extinction, all AI was able to kill off was the internet and we all had to go back to living the way we did 30 years ago.
