Trump ran on a pledge to immediately lower prices and now admits his policies will inflict “PAIN” on Americans in the form of higher prices but it will be “worth the price”

Do you eat Vlasics during

don't view these recent attempts to cut all social services as "what trump voters deserve". view them as the opportunity to radicalize them. viewing them with disdain only strengthens their movement. do you want to be smug, or do you want liberation? you don't get to have both.

Love you

I’m showing my best friend the films for her first time, and idk if we’ll actually watch the prequels but when I told her about Sheev’s senate switcheroo her mouth dropped.

The American refugee system, which Trump is dismantling, was put into place in response to America’s shameful failure to provide refuge to Jews persecuted by Hitler

@timothycsimons.bsky.social man, I’m doing a Veep rewatch and I wanted to just say- I keep forgetting you’re giving a performance and feel like they’re just capturing this awful person live. I rarely get caught in that, it’s a wonderful performance.

every single one of these guys is an incel loser who thought that being rich would make them popular and well-liked and when it didn't happen they lost their minds even further

Have you seen Michael Powell’s Contraband aka Blackout? It’s so funny, and him on a low budget before he gets magical and grand.

I really think in 2025 we should say no, and loudly, to the AI project. People need to reject it wholesale, stop playing with the pieces or accepting it here and there

Just let them finish performing before you take them away Come on, let them do their art or their talent or their shtick, *then* you can haul them off to wherever at the end.

Return of the Jedi was my absolute fave as a kid, but now for the life of me I can’t believe how badly it’s photographed.

How is that a job?

What’s the job?

Time is too afraid to nominate the real person of the year for his bravery and vision. @paulrobalino.bsky.social

time for my favorite year-end prompt to ask:

*what were your Revelatory Rewatches of the year?* brief explanations encouraged!!

& what about the opposite? were there rewatches that were a disappointment or didn't hit the same?

I was *gasping* this time at some of the blocking in High & Low, plus the one surprise use of color that I never remember is coming.

Charade was goofier than when I was as a kid, not in a fun way.

@jeremydrinkscoffee.bsky.social I have the same cup

the subway shooter in 2022 left the keys to the uhaul he rented and his credit card in the subway car he shot up and then wandered around new york for 29 hours and the NYPD only caught him - after dozens of tips - when he called them from a pay phone and told them to come get him

I was having an awful night last night and this really turned it around, thanks for letting us know about it.

That anniversary dance with the old folks and the slow scan across the crowd. They were decades ahead of their time in getting to humanity through magic.

I’ve learned that I am always rabidly down to see a new cover to the game Clue with six new Clue guys. Gimme a green Brooklyn hipster and a red fashion influencer, I want those Clue guys!

Flushing that small business restroom dump

After enough rewatches, Fincher’s Dragon Tattoo slipped above Zodiac for me. Bottle world with the icy, deathly yellow colors, richer characters than you often get. Captivity scenes that are terrifying, funny, then terrifying and a little funny. Sweaters and hoodies.

Real Porco Rosso energy

Thank you. Gonna bookmark this and read it forever.

Favorite movie, gif only
