Congrats to Michael B. Jordan on the win. But I'm sad to see Michael B. Jordan lose out, he was also great in that movie

Marathon, Reprise I’d been feeling all kinds of uneasy ahead of the currently-ongoing Stress Test for Marathon (2026), in that I had such a potently bad experience last couple...

I wrote about Marathon (2026) again, trying to figure out why it pushed me to tears.

i've always loved this perfectly rancid theme. just the most stinky aura that's ever come off a piece of music. the composer should've been able to retire off this

worse, we're gonna have a president who never stepped foot in one but thinks they "sound cool" and "don't know why they got rid of them"
