Socialism. Horror movies. Bad jokes.
Saw two movies over the weekend that turned out to be a thematically resonate double feature.

Companion (theaters): Fun!
Birdeater (Amazon Prime rental): Fucked up! But fun!

Both deal, in different ways, with male insecurity and the physical/emotional violence it spawns.

Imagine the American Presidency being viewed by history as a minor road bump in your exceedingly long life of nearly uninterrupted good deeds and correct opinions. Jimmy fuckin’ Carter, man.

The next CEO slayer should mark their place in history by engraving their bullet casings with the words “It’s-a,” “me,” and “Mario!”

It’s terrific that two of our most powerful elected leaders are so old that they’re all fucked up from falling over.

If you don’t understand the meaningful semantic difference between “homeless” and “unhoused” I’ve got a 5th grade to introduce you to.

Turducken is a duck stuffed inside a chicken stuffed inside a turkey. It’s fuckin’ fowl.

Snorks were just underwater Smurfs. More cartoons should’ve done that. SCUBA Doo, for instance.

The abolition of the barbaric, centuries-long Chinese tradition of foot binding was no small feet.

I love tater tots, but the name "tater tots" is unsophisticated. I'm going to start calling them "potato children."

I’m the guy who gets The Rock those little shirts. He says "make me look like fourteen softballs in a cotton sack" and I say okay.
