Nightmare employee experience and speaking personally, nightmare customer experience too.

Fuck off Target. Fix your DEI policies, pay your employees more instead of regulating their emotions, then apologize for 10 years. Until then, eat boycott bitches!
"Store employees are now required to smile if they are within 10 feet of a shopper.

They also must make eye contact with and wave to or greet the customer.

If they’re within four feet, the employee should ask how the customer’s day is going or if they need help."

🙄 Won't stop the boycott, y'all.
Target is now requiring its employees to smile more
As the holiday season fast approaches, Target is urging its employees to add a little more “jolly” to their work routine.

Four more films watched since Sinners. Head somewhere else for a lengthy review. #filmsky

Had to make some tough decisions at www.nytimes.com/interactive/... but I think things worked out okay in the end. Tried to avoid creator and subject overlap and not pick anything created during the pandemic; recommend everyone making a list especially if you have Letterboxd! #FilmSky

Finally, congratulations to Anora on Best Picture (five wins of six nominations). I only got 10 predictions right this year, but I’m happier with the reality of it all. #Oscars2025

Sorry, Conan, but anyone who did blackface doesn’t get to be “the best ever.” #Oscars2025

Congratulations to Mikey Madison for Best Leading Actress! Make your next steps carefully. (Sorry, Demi.) #Oscars2025

Did QT get picked to present just because Sean Baker cast Mikey Madison because of a film that dropped back in 2020? What if Baker didn’t just win Best Director? That would have been really awkward. #Oscars2025

Congratulations to Adrien Brody for Best Leading Actor! #Oscar2025

Congratulations to the team behind I’m Still Here for Best International Feature! Sorry you’ll forever be confused with the last Bob Dylan movie and the fake Joaquin documentary. #Oscars2025

How is Nickel Boys not nominated for Cinematography? WHERE DID THEY HIDE THE CAMERAS?! #Oscars2025

When they forget Michelle Trachtenberg, David Johansen & Tony Todd from the In Memoriam segment.

Why does Gene Hackman get to double dip for In Memoriam and not the folks who weren’t terrible to their directors and costars? #Oscars2025

Congratulations to the team behind I’m Not a Robot for Best Live Action Short (and not just because I randomly predicted they’d win tonight)! #Oscars2025

Congratulations to the team behind Dune: Part Two for Best Sound! #Oscars2025

I wonder which of these firefighters they just brought onstage are actually incarcerated people used for slave labor (which California recently voted to keep going!) #Oscars2025

Congratulations to the team behind The Only Girl in the Orchestra for Best Documentary Short! #Oscars2025

Conan clearly misses being on TV; he’s really getting a kick out of this sandstorm bit. #Oscars2025
March 3, 2025 at 2:10 AM
They dragged Mick Jacgger out for this but couldn’t get McCartney for the Bond songs? Bummer. #Oscars2025

Ben Stiller is in charge of the best show on TV right now. He’s better than this production design gimmick. #Oscars2025

So Zoe Saldaña basically swept the Best Supporting Actress awards this year, eh? Shame everyone is going to forget this movie exists in a month. #Oscars2025
