We’ve now taken the lead by 91 votes! 🤯 This thing is certainly not over! Over 1,000 ballots have been challenged, so if you haven’t tracked your ballot yet get on it! Our trusty volunteers have been working hard to "cure" ballots so they count! We're so close!
Good on ya, New York.

ER doc here! This is a lie. Wait times are up because the American healthcare system is an unsustainable business model and a for-profit national healthcare system just doesn’t work. These problems will continue to get worse until we change that system. It literally has nothing to do with immigrants

Eddington is quite disappointing. It feels like a 2.5 hour South Park episode in that it tries to critique "both sides" but never actually says anything of substance. A very frustrating watch.

Such a fantastic presentation on '80s Bombay horror by my friend and mentor, Kartik Nair. And Kartik was nice anough to gift me a signed copy of his book!
Thank you @benspky.bsky.social and everyone at Seattle U for organizing this!
Final Destination: Bloodlines is a hoot and a half. Probably the most fun I've had at the movies since Barbarian.

When I taught my class on cult films I assigned some midnight movies like Reefer Madness and Eraserhead. The students loved Beyond the Valley of the Dolls.
I also show The Gang's All Here when teaching genre and I think that counts lol
I love days devoted to reading.

It felt like a lot was left on the cutting room floor.
