Black Dynamite and Hot Fuzz are two of the few perfect comedies

It sucks sometimes being part of the generation cursed to explain computers to generations older and younger than us

High as hell and watching 2001. I know it's a cliche but this really is one of the best movies ever.

Reading Caro's The Path to Power and fucking hell LBJ used to force subordinates watch him shit as a dominance move

Just saw that a new season of The Rehearsal started. I'm gonna watch it but I need like a day beforehand to mentally prepare myself.

Criterion's Bob Caro/Bob Gottlieb doc is fucking fire. I've watched it like six times now. youtu.be/gv3CRojrbeE?...

I'm becoming more of a gushy romantic as I get older and I've watched this like a dozen times since it came out on Friday youtu.be/sNY_2TEmzho?...

The Flamin' Hot commercial is seriously one of the funniest things SNL has ever done. One of the few funnier bits is Ego Nwodim getting the audience to shout swear on live TV. SNL is notoriously hit or miss, so I'm beyond shocked they had two bangers in one episode. That whole episode was damn good.

Bobby Moynihan in the bowling episode of Documentary Now breaks my heart while making me laugh. I want to hug him and tell him everything's going to be all right.

Listening to the Interstellar and Tenet soundtracks back to back--both phenomenal--my uninformed, musically-naive opinion is that Hans Zimmer was doing the best work of his era, and Ludwig Goransson was doing amazing new shit for his own era.

Tenet is the best weed movie and it's not even debatable

A whole lotta dong in the new season of Righteous Gemstones

I Am Cuba will always be one of my favorites. Fuck what a good movie

Showed my wife Babette's Feast for the first time and she realized it's the non-musical foodie version of Footloose.

I want to hump the new PTA trailer youtu.be/2694wPBs7Ew?...

These horny cooking videos are out of control youtube.com/shorts/PkkT7...

Checking on the socials after a bunch of days off is so freaking weird. I'm woefully out of touch and wondering why I ever wanted to be in touch.

Ongoing thing in my relationship is I randomly surprise my wife on dinner nights out by telling staff that it's her birthday. She loves surprises and she's always excited and she always plays along.

I love McConaughey abs and I hate movies that don't feature McConaughey abs, yet my favorite McConaughey movie, Interstellar, is one that never gives a glimpse of McConaughey abs. Conundrum.

Biggest revelation about aging is the joints feel everything so much more. Getting up from a chair means remembering every place where my body bends.

Breaking: Gavin Newsom caught breaking into homes, peeing on leftovers

Netanyahu has not allowed any food, water, or fuel into Gaza in two weeks. Now he has resumed bombing, killing hundreds of people and breaking the ceasefire that had given Gaza a chance to live again. NO MORE MILITARY AID TO ISRAEL.

Say what you will about people calling their Senators newly horrifed to demand action, that's at least a theory of politics with a clear mechanism for change and a clear way to organize neighbors, unlike smugly posting that the American project was always fascist & asking why anyone is surprised.

TikTok not beating the "world's most effective brain-smoothing technology" allegations www.wired.com/story/airpor...

It is human trafficking.

Thats on purpose because the merits with repsect to land use are indisputable. Defending a uniquely American land use system that yields some of the worst housing shortages in the world cannot be defended so it gets abstracted to "deregulation" in the hopes to avoid the issue.

I’m sorry that news organizations still can’t say Trump will receive his instructions from Putin and agree to them, because that is assuredly what’s going to happen.

NEW today from @miamiherald.com: more men sent to El Salvador on Saturday have been identified by their families, including a 27-year-old who entered legally at a port of entry in 2023 through the CBP One app and a 29-year-old father of a baby born here last year. Neither have any criminal record.

I can: I see the Biden industrial policy as in line with abundance, because it engaged in industrial policy that actually resulted in an increase in productive capacities. In housing, land use restrictions are the biggest obstacle, but when they're out of the way we SHOULD subsidize to catch up

The manosphere deliberately giving dudes the wrong dating advice as a way to make them less appealing and more bitter is so frustrating because the correct advice is very simple: give a shit about yourself and others. That's it.
