Another reason why I hate all the stupid “comedy is dead” discourse from Joe Rogan land is it’s always sunny in Philadelphia has been on the air for years. You can be fucked up and offensive as long as you are also, you know, funny
Or, he’s doing the Just To Be Clear part of this youtube.com/watch?v=vPkZ...

All the Epstein emails are powerful elites saying shit like “Hello my friend the pedophile, i need your advice as a pedophile, what do you think about this other pedophile? Pedophilic Regards, your Friend ;)” and instead of swinging from a gibbet most of them are still writing op-eds against leftism

Great piece by Zadie Smith. When the right talks about classics or "Western" culture, these works are only important to the extent that it demonstrates their superiority, they have no interest in art in and of itself beyond that www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Like yeah the script and characters are bad but you can tell this is from a director who worked on Hannibal
I hate to be the guy who’s like “that movie you all hated was actually good“ but I just watched in the tall grass and that is one of the coolest looking horror movies I’ve seen in a long time

1. Watch The Lowdown, one of the best shows I've seen in quite some time.
2. Read Kathryn on The Lowdown, one of the best TV columns I've read in quite some time.
3. Profit.
wrote an essay about the lowdown, and how it can be hard to think about drama at a time when there never seem to be consequences for bad guys, and how the lowdown offers us a way out

My number one problem with John Wick is that they do a phenomenal job casting character actors who inhale scenery until they get to the top dude, who’s played by some guy being boring. Should’ve been Tony Dalton or shohreh aghdashloo
Anyways my point is that the first John Wick movie kicks fucking ass but the subsequent John Wick sequels are over-long and oftentimes boring but no one wants to say that because we all like Keanu and want him to be happy

I am calling upon the people of Ireland to immediately begin construction of a thread on this site about how you or someone you know was roasted for a fashion choice. We need it.

All roasts must have come from Irish people *only*. Please respect this important rule, it makes a difference.

I have a plan to save movie theaters and it’s gonna work:

Double-price for phone-friendly showings. You can have your phone out the entire time, make calls, talk, bring young active children without fear of being judged.

Half-price for silent showings. Phone use gets you banned for six months.

The Lord of the rings always stuck out to me as a tale of how big mighty cities can be corrupted in an instant without the thoughtful presence of more sensitive creatures like wizards and hobbits, but I guess that’s why I’m not a billionaire dumbass
The far right is obsessed with Lord of the Rings and Musk keeps posting about "hobbits" because modern scientific racism owes more to fantasy worlds and gaming systems than genetic science, and they see both as effective mediums for right-wing propaganda www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2025/1...
