When he says β€œhit it, Joe”, I don’t think first time viewers are going to be prepared for just how hard Joe hits it.

Really loving how posting this from the United States in the year 2025 is a real "glass houses" situation.

Has anyone thrown their *third* career MLB complete game in the Postseason? Asking for Orioles fans like myself... we need this.

Screenshot from the Wikipedia page for "The Departed" where Scorsese's name has been edited to "PTA" (Paul Thomas Anderson) and the number 5 has been edited to "6." The screenshot reads:

The film marked the first time PTA won an Oscar after six previous losses. Many felt that he deserved it years earlier for prior efforts. Some felt he deserved it for his prior nominations and the win was described as a "Lifetime Achievement Award for a lesser film". PTA himself joked that he won because: "This is the first movie I've done with a plot."

Ah, "The Departed." I'm so ready to go full insufferable film school MFA mode this year...

When he gets hit over the head in his apartment I swear it looks like he is saying "OW" or "OH NO" and the audio is edited out. To be clear: it appears to be an acting choice by Willis that was overruled by Besson.

Part of running for office should be applying for SNAP live on television/streaming. It's the perfect test for an aspiring public servant. We could evaluate a candidate's:

- Reading comprehension
- Patience
- Attitude toward service workers
- Attention to detail
- Financial situation

Saw a screening last night. I'm very hit-or-miss with Yorgos films and this one was, to me, one of the good ones. It's still very much camera-on-sticks-in-a-corner with extreme eye-line-avoiding shots, but not in an annoying way. Lense choices are normal.

That's right. I've been on a "lion diet" for almost three years now and plan to continue indefinitely, but that doesn't change the math on beef's environmental footprint.

If we want to be honest about the benefits of fatty red meat then we also need to be honest about the cost of getting it.

Cornfields really challenging the idea of "matter can neither be creating nor destroyed."

While we're on the subject: what the heck is going on with corn? I never understood the "cornfields are creepy" horror movie trope until I drove along the edge of a very tall, very dense cornfield. It's not that I feared getting lost, it's more like *there's no way there's enough soil for all this."

220 yards would be goal-line-to-endline-and-back of an American football field. The weirdness of the 1.5 km run is probably due to a graduated rating scale at which the time is the lowest "satisfactory" level.
