The Zohran press conference is your regular reminder that the entire administration folds like tissue paper at the slightest hint of confidence and conviction, and thus the fact that national democrats are playing a game of capitulation and weakness is exactly why they're all getting away with it

If I were even remotely afraid of embarrassment, I wouldn't do half of the stupid shit that I do, and none of the most fun stuff.
I cannot tell you how much I wish that this was even one of my ten greatest fears.

As others have said, it's an adaptation so loose as to be barely recognizable, but DL's closest analogue in the movie is DeAndre, played by Regina Hall.
wait holy shit One Battle After Another is based on Vineland? i'm almost done the book and it beats ass, who plays DL?

It's likely you've heard me mention DEMASCUS, a show I edited (and loved!) before it was shelved by its original network and lived in agonizing limbo for two years... until now, because the trailer just dropped!

I saw a few episodes of this at SXSW & it was *incredible*. Just been sadly thinking about how I'd never see the rest ever since. Can't wait to watch! 💞
Two years ago, I was crestfallen when a show I was very proud to have been part of, DEMASCUS, was shelved by the network — even though it was complete and it was awesome.

Well, our producers' perseverance has paid off and the series will premiere on Tubi next month!

I won't be the only one to say this, but man, Sly Stone and Brian Wilson leaving the station within a week of each other is just too much.

It says something unflattering about our culture that an artist owning her own work is not only newsworthy, but rightfully considered historical.

But hell yes, congrats Taylor!

All the IMAX showings of "Pink Floyd at Pompeii" on Sunday are at 2:00 p.m. Who the fuck wants to see Pink Floyd at two in the afternoon?

This is great news, and let me use this opportunity to mention that there's still a weird and wonderful TV show out there called DEMASCUS (a sci-fi comedy about Black identity) that got disappeared for the same balance-sheet reasons as this film.

Somebody buy DEMASCUS!

"We Built This City" hurts me bad, not just because it's a terrible song, but also cuz not long before, they had been an extraordinary band. They went from "The Ballad of You & Me & Pooneil" to this awful corporate b.s. (hypocritically posing as anti-corporate). It's just painful.
Fuck your favourite song. Tell me your least favourite song. The one that makes you die inside the moment you hear the first 3 seconds.

The more I think about BLACK BAG, the more I love it. I'm gonna have to see it in the cinema at least one more time.

(And yes, I realize that time is of the essence on that point.)
