Takashi Miike talking about VISITOR Q (2001). There’s a subsection of film fandom that really really needs to try and internalize this mode of creation/understanding.

Folks, are we ready to have the conversation about finally deleting all Meta products? Zuck’s fuckhouses are actively moving like the CIA now…

Fifteen years after the release of Take Shelter, writer-director Jeff Nichols speaks with Mitchell Beaupre about the film’s complex and tender portrayal of marriage, its reckoning with economic anxieties, and more. Read the full interview on Journal: https://boxd.it/3te

The LEGO Movie was ineligible because of 5 minutes of live action, but half the movie is real people and this still counts??? Ok.

Oh are we talking about Peter Moly run being really impressed with the latest tech trend with questionable benefit for players? I have a link for that arstechnica.com/gaming/2026/...

What Kamala Harris proposes in not impeaching Trump is this the same reason why letting Jefferson Davis and the rest of the Confederate soldiers and leaders off the hook was a bad idea.. We've been paying for it ever since😡

I cannot stress enough how much this ain’t it, chief.

“As I write this, the Washington Post has published at least 4 articles about Obama’s Cheesecake Factory line, and 0 articles about a new allegation of rape against Donald Trump, who has already been found liable for sexual assault.” — @jamisonfoser.bsky.social www.findinggravity.net/more-women-h...

there are people serving life sentences right now on thinner evidence than we have for "donald trump was jeffrey epstein's partner in serial rape" democrats-judiciary.house.gov/media-center...

"Journalists often use the words 'unsubstantiated' or 'uncorroberated' when referring to the allegations victims have levied against powerful men, like Trump. Instead of saying these women’s accounts are not corroborated, maybe it’s time we say they were not investigated in spite of clear patterns."

“This is the first time ever that we have had to engage in scenario planning to safeguard against potential federal interference in elections. It seems like the federal government is now adversarial to the states.” www.nytimes.com/2026/10/27/u...

"So, in Alaska, if Peltola wins, her victory is inherently suspect and must be investigated. And in Minnesota, if Flanagan bests Tafoya, her victory is inherently suspect b/c Trump has declared that Tafoya can’t lose, period, unless Dems cheat. This is the long, stupid shadow of the 2020 election."

If you’re interested in ET or just movie history in general, Stranded on Earth is absolutely worth a read!

this man is a gotdamned patriot

having the cover art reference Pong, a 70s computer game, is not lost on me the earth is not a play thing, the computers are not helping this situation

My quick look at how MacBooks have influenced laptops over the last 20 years

Julie K. Brown at the Miami Herald is still doing the heavy lifting on keeping the story alive. www.miamiherald.com/news/nation-...

The only reason I can think of for this news not being absolutely everywhere is that large media orgs don’t want to be seen as putting their thumbs on the scales a week before election day. And that’s cowardly as shit.

Just finished watching The Diplomat S4 and it is wildly sharp and off-the-charts entertaining. Every one of the eight episodes ends on a season-finale-level OMG-what-now twist. Wall-to-wall fun, sterling performances, and a kind of current political resonance that doesn't feel smug or forced.

i am inviting anyone from a legacy media organization to explain to me why the house judiciary dems report on trump’s epstein’s ties and multiple allegations of rape isn’t worthy of extensively reporting on. i’m serious. i want to understand.

motherfucker have you heard of algebra

Just stumbled on a Google doc where an X-Files fan has obsessively documented the Duchovny/Anderson relationship rumors from 1993 to 2025. FANDOM IS ALIVE! docs.google.com/document/u/0...

it feels truly insane that it’s not

Republicans, they're not like us.

I appreciate that people want a new Mass Effect, but the future where fans advocate for the work itself and not the people who make it is the one the vultures at EA want. If you'll take it however you get it, they can keep treating people who make what you love as expendable.

NEW: "Donald Trump was an active participant in Jeffrey Epstein’s sexual abuse of young women during the mid-to-late 1990s," per new House Judiciary Dem report. Report has new allegation that Trump raped a 24-year-old and then promised the victim a visa & NYU admission, demanding she stay quiet.

I think the lesson from Lula is not never talk about the opposition; it's articulate a positive vision that's basically, We Can Just Do Things. That's why Mamdani-ism is so popular - voters have an intrinsic sense that their electeds have agency they're not using

Sam Altman argues “the world should accept some bad things happening for the benefit of this technology." Of course he would. But the rest of us don’t have to agree that these people and their work are so special that, for the first time ever, law and public interest don’t apply. Full piece here:

Beyond disgusted by even more rape allegations against the President of the United States. "In total, more than 25 different women...have independently accused Donald Trump of rape, sexual assault, or other sexual misconduct." Report w/ new details: democrats-judiciary.house.gov/sites/evo-su...

"Get a bunch of old WIRED editors together these days and it doesn’t take more than one drink before we start asking each other whether we enabled the worst parts of the tech world’s rise to power. " www.wired.com/story/how-el...

The Grand Old Rape Party

1/ Holy shit, this woman who earns less than $50K is spending her nights and weekends finding furniture for NYC public housing residents, aka God's work www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

So much to say about Brazil, not least of which is the role that Erika Hilton, a Black trans leader and most voted woman politician in Brazil, played in mobilizing folks for Lula. She was behind the critical, concrete, economic promise of shorter work-week. theprint.in/feature/erik...

I spoke to the mom of the 3-year-old soccer star who was left "thinking he did something wrong" after a league official called police "due to a disturbance between parents" The youth sports league said they launched a review and reached out to the family

In the last few weeks i've been bombarded with emails from people who have minor tech support problems. ChatGPT is telling them to email me, writing their emails, and compiling "evidence packets" after convincing them they have stumbled on a major story: www.404media.co/chatgpt-keep...

Eric Bauza’s final film performance, as of right now, is Coyote VS ACME. Roadrunner’s testimony is one of his final character performances in the film. He says “Beep” around 46 times, that’s all he says. Yet it says everything about his strengths and passion as a voice actor, with just one word.

Sounds like a slave auctioneer talking about the big black buck he has available for sale. Hell of a way for Minaj to light her career on fire.
