Entertainment journalists need to start asking DiCaprio about his relationship with Bezos.

I love Leo’s movies, but the fucker needs to be put on blast.

You don’t get to pay lip service to revolution while palling around with Grand Moff Tarkin.

One of most surprising things about the Epstein files so far is that Bill Maher isn’t in them.

Screenshot of tweet from Huberman that reads: “The other is that dog breeds w/different shaped heads are predictive of their demeanor and intelligence. And while I don’t! believe in Phrenology I now do pay some attention to how the shapes of peoples heads relates to their intellect and steadiness, or lack thereof.”

In response to announcement that he will be a new CBS contributor, Andrew Huberman tweeted “I’ve always gone issue-by-issue on health & science, spoken to experts w/a range of takes & presented where I see the center of (data) mass pointed. I’ll do the same with @CBSNews”. In Sept he posted this:

Seats fill up, so arrive early; 1-6 players; win free passes, posters & drinks. (It’s a bit tough, but also very silly.)

Cinephiles at a party: “Claire Denis did her best work when Agnes Godard was her DP, no relation to Jean Luc, whose films were shot guerrilla style by Raoul Coutard, but clearly influenced by Hollywood DP’s Gregg Toland and James Wong Howe…Wait, what’s your name again?

I have at least one former friend that fits this hypothesis

Ugh, I’m sorry.

I just left a comment saying that I didn’t want my child exposed to AI slop and will unsubscribe if it’s not easy to opt out of and/or block all Sora generated bullshit.

After Tom Stoppard passed, a doctor wrote about how hele’d been researching breast cancer, and went to see Stoppard’s play Arcadia, a line in it helped him think differently about his approach which led to a life saving breakthrough in treatment. Imagine he’d decided plays had no functional purpose.

It’s about training your brain to be flexible and introducing you to different types of thinking skills. If you can’t appreciate that, then yes education will be useless because you’ve already trained your brain not to learn.

Be kinda nice if celebrities and filmmakers loudly committed to not working with Warner Bros if taken over by Ellison. Make the shareholders scared of the backlash to Trump’s fascist bullshit.

George Bailey has so many problems he is thinking about ending it all - and it's Christmas! As the angels discuss George, we see his life in flashback. As George is about to jump from a bridge, he ends up rescuing his guardian angel, Clarence. Clarence then shows George waht his town would have looked like if it hadn't been for all of his good deeds over the years. Will Clarence be able to convince George to return to his family and forget suicide?

Algorithm commentary spot on

The entire US economy is propped up by a product so toxic and insidious that everyone has to go on a weekly scavenger hunt just to remove it from products they're already using.

Gmail's Smart Features option in the settings

Maybe knowing that there are people who see Newsom as a Diet Republican, and that trans people will harmed by his bigotry and the policies it informs, you can commit to supporting and advocating for a candidate who won’t be in danger of losing the progressive base in the general?

Remember when you were such a pathetic and weak leader you couldn’t even express support for the Democratic candidate for Mayor? How can you lead a Party you don’t support? Step down coward.

Resign Chuck.

Kinda funny Zohran and Cuomo both got more votes than Adams did when he won.

A little weird how many people wear KORN shirts in the year 2025.

Hmmm…

Mamdani voters, we gotta get off the couch. I'm over to the polling place today.
