I own the soundtrack on vinyl, AND it's in 3D.
Happy birthday to you and Neo!
I watched two movies in a row that end with an exclamation point -- The Bride! and Viva Verdi! -- and they're both so good that they deserve that punctuation.
This was a slumber party staple in my household -- gateway horror for my little sister. It screened tonight at the SF Alamo Terror Tuesday, and I couldn't make it!
I was late to From as well. I think we're only partway through season 2, so we have some catching up to do AND avoid season 4 spoilers!
I'd gone to Catholic school that wasn't very preachy, but around age 12 I went to a friend's church youth group where they talked about abortion, and I didn't know what it was but the way they talked about it didn't make sense to me. Then I started questioning EVERYTHING.
cannot stress enough that "separate the art from the artist" was meant for private individuals reconciling the art they love with its flawed creators and not meant for the ceo of a company driving a dump truck of money up to a bigot's front porch

I've been treating myself to a solo opera date a couple times a year for the past handful of years since I landed on some deep-discount Bay Area resident list and actually just bought a mini subscription to the next opera season. I do like how some companies are taking advantage of this to promote!
Yeah, I feel like he's often naive and careless in his comments and didn't think this one through, but I question how many people slamming him have gone to a ballet or opera in the past year, if ever.
Yesterday the Texas Rangers erected a statue of a segregationist cop at Globe Life Field. A statue that was removed from public property in 2020 because of its racist history. @mlb.com has refused to comment. www.cupofcoffeenews.com/cup-of-coffe...

I made my first meme.
What’s wrong, Congress? You’ve barely even touched your checks and balances
I expected better from a FIFA Peace Prize recipient
If trying to interfere with the 2020 election is justification for dropping bombs, I have some thoughts on further targets.
Now is a good time to remind people that Max Landis is a creep. He's not a singular, once-in-a-lifetime talent. Hollywood doesn't need to hire him. They choose to. Margo and I recorded this episode in 2020, and I've added an update at the beginning about the latest news.
Most Americans manage to go their entire lives without worrying what's inside the pants of Boy Scouts and I'm simply asking Pete Hegseth to do the same
This is the wife of the second most powerful person in the American government, openly cheering on the censorship of stories and narratives and values that conflict with her own. It's appalling, and Democrats should absolutely fight back hard.
Abolish the legal gender marker entirely. No government can be trusted to have a database of which people have changed theirs, no government has any business tracking what your gender is "supposed" to be in the first place.
it’s not political it’s about making jokes against women & laughing about it instead of standing up for them or just keeping your mouth shut.making “jokes” against women and then laughing with them is the problem. they did just as good, even better than you and you laugh at a joke at their expense

Masterful Troll, TCM.
My way isn't very helpful, but on work days I check it several times a day and archive/delete/unsubscribe. Before I go on vacations I aggressively unsubscribe so I'm not spending said vacation fiddling with email.

Happy #LetterboxdFriday! This is the rare occasion in which the 2 new movies among my #LastFourWatched were better than the 2 older movies.
