That apology should also come from other fellow progressives, who were too busy clamoring for morality gold stars from the very people who hate them that they were willing to throw the rest of us under the bus just to say they took the high road.

Two points, same theme:
1.) Between the release of “Press” and this “courtroom edition” of her new album, Cardi B remains undefeated in spinning legal drama into rollout opportunities.
2.) Doja Cat is very good at what she does (Performing, marketing, general spectacle).

LOST IN STARLIGHT (Netflix) is such a stunning look at love that is quiet, yet bigger than the cosmos. Beautiful animation with a killer, intimate soundtrack. A new favorite.

That social media thing where someone forces us to witness their terrible relationship, then gets upset when the public tells them that their relationship is terrible.

Please tell me about your favorite moviegoing experience. The one that really made you believe in the magic of movies and, more specifically, leaving your house to watch movies.

Sascha Jenkins has died. I interviewed him for this 2021 piece reflecting on the complicated legacy of Rick James, which he examined in Bitchin'. He was one of few contemporary filmmakers not doing celebrity docs as fan service. RIP www.nytimes.com/2021/09/01/m...

Heyyyyy, so the gleeful, post-courtroom influencer recounts of the Diddy trial are weird. THEY ARE WEIRD. And I don’t remember seeing this with any other trial.
Anyway, Cassie’s trauma isn’t TikTok fodder. Stick to actual journalists who know how to report professionally, with compassion.

If your brain thinks suggesting a book JAM-PACKED WITH THE N-WORD as a reading recommendation in response to a movie with a Black-led cast set in the Mississippi Delta, you aren't, on any level, the person to be writing a piece.
After you watch Sinners, you should read George R.R. Martin’s excellent and underrated vampire novel
