Trump spent hours with a victim. What an insane headline.
WaPo headline: "Epstein wrote that Trump knew of sexual abuse but didn't participate That account, included in a new tranche of documents, conflicts with Donald Trump's denial of ever knowing about Jeffrey Epstein's solicitation of underage prostitution before Epstein's 2008 plea deal."

What the fuck, Shout Factory? (This is from Diabolik DVD, which did nothing wrong here.)
As you may have heard, Shout Factory seriously undercut stores with their release of HARDBOILED. With no indication that it was going to be severely limited or allocated, we received only 1/4 of our entire order....which we found out only this week. We have spent a lot of time discussing this matter with our distributor and while we have no clear resolution, we haven't given up hope that that we will still get more though it is not definite and there is no clear time line. Seeing as they would have to make more, it could be weeks before we know more. In regards to orders, we did the fairest thing and counted back the number of copies from the first order until we were out. If you are receiving this email from us, your order is still pending. All that said, we are offering refunds for Hardboiled so you can try your luck elsewhere. We know this is industry wide but Amazon, Wal-Mart and Shout direct are still taking orders though we have no idea if you will actually get one from these other stores. We are also happy to hold your order until you have secured a copy elsewhere, so you don't need to immediately cancel and keep your place in line with us should we get more. Also, we assume there will be an ARROW UK version at some point so if you want to roll your order into store credit for the future, that is certainly good for us as well. As of right now we also have no idea if A Better Tomorrow (though we will know more about this soon) and/or The Killer will also be affected so we can't comment on those titles but as of now we are only offering normal store credit for cancellation of those titles. In the nearly 25 years we have been doing this, we have been shorted here and there but never to this degree and never with no advanced notice. This could have been easily prevented with some basic communication so we are enormously frustrated by this and will be very cautious with future preorders from Shout and hope you understand this whole situation was completely out of our control.

You have meddled with the primal forces of words, Spelling Bee, and I won't have it!
Spelling Bee refuses "immane," a very real word uttered by Ned Beatty in his legendary NETWORK monologue.

I encourage you to block and ignore forever these two culturally illiterate imbeciles. These movies have overwhelming artistic value. They may not connect with you, but they are vital works. Classics. Neither writer has earned the right to pass such harsh judgment on the aforementioned films.
Coach Finstock calls THE DEPARTED and THE IRISHMAN "dogshit Scorsese movies" while defending Michel Mann's HEAT, which Clara Jeffrey derides as "meh to terrible."

Alcohol withdrawal?
They said Hegseth is becoming increasingly “obsessed” with his own security and exhibits frantic behavior, such as fidgeting and pacing during meetings. “There’s a manic quality about him. Or let me rephrase, an even more manic quality, which is really saying something,” an insider told the outlet. “Dude is crawling out of his skin,” another source said.
