"This is Spinal Tap" is probably the funniest movie ever made, absolutely hallucinatory in its perfection, like peak 30 Rock or golden-age Simpsons

Get a guitar or some drums, or a trumpet. Pick up a brush, a pencil, some clay or a welder.
Just make shit. It doesn't have to be good (eventually it will be) just make music, art or write or whatever.
It's literally never been more important.

Imagine they cared about road safety and not needlessly harassing cyclists in High Park.
There’s a very clear signal here that Toronto police do not care about this camera or this crime.

A ★★★ review of Friendship (2024)
I'm a huge Tim Robinson fan and this was 1hr and 40mins of that. Super funny. I don't want to say it's just a giant I Think You Should You Should Leave sketch. It's more like a Tim Robinson character ...

Blown away by Sinners in IMAX 70mm last night in Vaughn. That was until an unfortunate film tear ended the movie about 20 minutes early. Hoping that is solved for the next screenings. Excited to finish the film soon. The print looked AMAZING! #imax #cineplex #sinners #film #canada

Most generous way to read it is: at best, Doug Ford was duped out of hundreds of millions by an Austrian conman who swiped another company's name and logo in order to falsely claim he operated six spas across the world.

Agreed.
"The Iron Giant" was born out of heartbreak, but manages to be warm, joyful, and funny, while delivering a lesson that becomes more vital with each passing year. Let's discuss this perfect movie...

Easy to lose this in the noise of the day, but the prime minister of Canada just said the US president, leader of the global hegemon, wants to soften us up economically so he can annex us.
That is one of the most remarkable statements, and realities, in our history.

Two things can be true at once:
1. I have real sympathy for individual Americans who feel held hostage themselves.
2. This isn’t just a fluke or a blip or just one man. It’s their democratically-elected government, reflecting their system, leaders, and in some way or another the American people.

Ursula le Guin, on the accusation that fantasy is an escape from reality
![[“Fantasy is escapist, and that is its glory. If a soldier is imprisoned by the enemy, don’t we consider it his duty to escape? The moneylenders, the know-nothings, the authoritarians have us all in prison; if we value the freedom of the mind and soul, if we’re partisans of liberty, then it’s our plain duty to escape, and to take as many people with us as we can.”]](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:hppum4l25hcczzffastsicpq/bafkreihuubdwcftfkvvlnepoaf6pfxqulryfp7ydrydi5fe2pflwz63wgm@jpeg)
