I’ve sat on A HOUSE OF DYNAMITE for a bit, and no, I don’t think it works. The same tale told from three POVs, none of which do much (if anything) to illuminate each other.

(Also it’s a horror story about how our faith in the competence of American leadership is misplaced. Boy, is THAT timing off.)

I'm not really open about this but I am on SNAP. Journalism is a full-time job for me, be it entertainment, news and political commentary, or writing about baseball. I also freelance for another entertainment outlet. But all of these jobs combined are still not enough to get by.

Deviating from the tired eat-the-rich movies of late, #Bugonia is a mesmerizing takedown of humanity, brimming with tension and pitch-black comedy. My review via @wehotimes.bsky.social: wehotimes.com/bugonia-movi...

Some convoluted thoughts on how a mind-bending twist on HBO Max’s Peacemaker and late night TV hosts banding together might point the way to resisting America’s growing authoritarianism. https://loom.ly/2PdbkY4

Had a silly time with @claudioalvesdc.bsky.social discussing how The House of the Spirits whitewashes Isabel Allende's novel, the film's lack of authenticity, the epic actressing event of seeing Glenn Close and Meryl Streep share the screen together, and so much more! Give it a listen!
Episode 17 of The World According to Glenn is out now, discussing 1993's The House of the Spirits!

@claudioalvesdc.bsky.social joins me to break down Glenn's performance in this misguided adaptation of Isabel Allende's beloved novel. Listen now!

Friends, we got a call to action 👇

We have the right to know when and how our creative works are used, especially when it comes to GenAi!

Let’s Be Clear: Artists & Creators Must Have Transparency NOW!
Every single day we don’t have transparency, the value of copyright loses ground and the harms inflicted to creative industries grow. California has always been on the forefront of policies that can ...

A website describes an organization with an ambitious scope of LGBTQ2S+ activism, including grants for community organizations and assistance for asylum seekers and refugees.

But it's all a scam victimizing people who work to advance queer and trans rights.
