Yes, the Golden Globes are nonsense, and yes, I will be watching, because the alternative is paying attention to literally anything else.

I'm just glad that somewhere in New Jersey right now, Bobby Cannavale is looking deep into a bearded dragon's eyes, telling it that his wife just won a Golden Globe #GoldenGlobes

The Golden Globes commercials for Survivor season 50 feel like the Jaws 19 ad in Back To the Future II. #GoldenGlobes

This is always message in the country at large when it comes to policing. There isn't any police interaction that isn't defined by this way of thinking in the U.S.

They should have obeyed and complied is the default, always.

Thrilled Google AI is now regularly updating everyone on how different celebrities feel about Jennifer Lopez's presence. Meryl Streep ambivalent about JLo's occasional presence! Mr. Beast furious about JLo's theoretical presence! We're curing cancer with this technology any minute now, I can feel it

1. Wow, NYT, "what did they do to deserve scorn" feels STRIKINGLY "what was she wearing"-adjacent, 2. Conservatives realized they can't say the f-slur on TV anymore, 3. GLEE IS ABOUT SHOW CHOIR and also not a documentary #theatre #theater #theaterkid

Hey, random reader here - I just wanted to say, the events you recount in your piece are devastating to learn, but I feel like I understand them so much better because your writing is so good. Thank you for writing this.

Every time someone says AI will cure cancer or whatever, please note this technology is consistently used to create more sophisticated versions of the body pillow James Franco prefers to Jenna on 30 Rock

Guys, it's β€œnot the way that Marty Scorsese’s Film Society restores films," like a nerd. It's like the Snyder cut of the Windows XP wallpaper. You know...cool.

This piece does an excellent job pinning down a particular facet of the general horrors with cultural context. Really appreciating the writing on @defector.com lately

 An political mailer that says "NYC can't risk a mayor who supports defunding the police. Reject Zohran Mamdani. Vote June 24." Small print at the bottom (text in next image)

Zooming in on the bottom of the mailer, small print reads "Paid for by Fix the City, Inc. COO Meaghan Brown. Top three donors: Michael Bloomberg, Doordash, and William Ackman."

Already planning to vote for Zohran, but Michael Bloomberg, DoorDash, and hedge fund billionaire William Ackman sending mail to my house that says "watch out, he's gonna defund the police!" sure increases how much fun I will have doing it.
