'Avatar: Fire and Ash' review: Spectacular effects in search of a story
It's a peerless visual experience, but has little actual story to tell.

the thing is, “differing political views” used to be about what percentage to tax high earners and not whether brown people are humans

Everyone has a list of so-called "red flags" when they're dating. And for some, especially younger Americans, different political views is a relationship deal breaker.

On 'Heated Rivalry,' hot gay sex, and the reason woke is winning
It has been a word-of-mouth hit despite the rocky political terrain it’s in.

When the time comes - and it will - I will happily write a check to the relevant agency if they’ll use the money to prosecute these assholes.
ICE detain father shopping on Christmas Eve—then steal his family's groceries.

Then 3 agents divvy up his paid for food—taking what they want for themselves.

"Can I just get the wife's number to call and let her know?" woman asks.

"No, guess he should've complied," agent says.

ICE agent recognized out Christmas shopping—throws tantrum when citizens profile him.

"We're trying to prevent you from kidnapping our neighbors," they say.

"I'm not doing anything but walking, leave me alone!" he yells.

"Not right now you're not—but the past 5 days you have."

“Why greatness? Why is goodness not enough?” asks Essel (Alicia Vikander) about the hero’s central quest in #TheGreenKnight. Or as Lizzo once put it, “Why are men great ‘til they gotta be great?” Merry Christmas!
'The Green Knight': Never forget what happened this Christmas Day
This mythic fable gets better, richer every year.

From my review of #Hamnet: "The performances by #JessieBuckley and #PaulMescal as their characters grieve are remarkably raw and committed, channeling the near-physical agony of losing a child." Read the rest, like, and subscribe!

'Hamnet' review: Chloé Zhao's drama is such sweet sorrow
Zhao is on a path to becoming one of my favorite filmmakers. 'Hamnet,' therefore, had a lot to live up to.

Pound/dollar for pound/dollar, the good people can do in buying and wiping out debt (especially medical debt!) is astonishing, and it baffles me that more people with very medium amounts of wealth don’t do it when it would mean so much to people who are drowning
The actor Michael Sheen used all his money to start a fake debt collecting business, buy 900 people in Wales's debt, and excused it. If Musk bought ALL $194 billion in medical debt in the U.S. and excused it in the same way, he'd still be the world's riches man by hundreds of billions of dollars.
