Charlie Chaplin and Mabel Normand in Gentlemen of Nerve (1914). Chaplin might never have become a movie star without Normand's guidance on how to perform for the screen

It’s official. Studio Execs are now using Chat GPT to evaluate screenplays. Here’s proof from a friend’s pass letter: Not only is it vague and unhelpful, it references one specific — an antique camera. The problem? THERE’S NO ANTIQUE CAMERA IN THE FUCKING SCRIPT.

Judy Garland #BOTD in the Nov, 1957 edition of Photoplay. "I've been in love with audiences all my life.” #FilmSky

NEW: At least 38 DOGE members work, or have worked, for one of Elon Musk’s companies. Meanwhile, nearly two dozen DOGE officials are making cuts to the same federal agencies that regulate the industries that employed them.

Strong linear tune-in for GOOD NIGHT AND GOOD LUCK: CNN's live telecast of the Broadway play drew 2M viewers on CNN Saturday, or nearly 4x the network's weeknight primetime average of late. It was the No. 1 show on cable and No. 2 overall (behind baseball on Fox, with 3M)

This is why I push back every time some democrat says, “Well obviously the border was a problem under Biden, but…” You don’t need to do that. I spent 20 years working with immigrant communities in the US, it’s been more or less stable the whole time. The difference is how people talk about it.

Mozzarella Sticks & Marinara Pringles (2008-2009, 2011, 2013): Potato crisps meant to evoke breaded, fried mozzarella sticks and marinara sauce, with notes of cheese, tomato, and Italian seasonings. Part of the "Restaurant Cravers" line of appetizer-inspired crisp flavors

I went over to Occupied Twitter to make sure this was real (no disrespect to OP), and Tapper also RT'd Jonah Goldberg praising Fetterman for saying Dems aren't "condemning" violence enough. IMO, Tapper's RT choices are far more partisan than anything @terrymoranabc.bsky.social wrote

"I personally was pretty surprised, actually, at how efficient the government was," Sahil Lavingia told NPR's Juana Summers. Lavingia was a successful software developer and the /FOUNDER OF GUMROAD/ a platform for online sales, when he joined DOGE in March.

This is fucking insane in any other timeline but this one.

1331.Busy morning time

Please rise 👑

This very much reminds me of the spiritualist craze of the 19th century that lasted into the post-WWI period. Basically, people who were vulnerable to begin with (specifically thinking of postwar grief) embraced a realm of spirits and fairies

ER doctor here! Please seek medical attention (go to the ER) if you are hit in the head with a ballistic. “Less lethal” weapons kill people all the time, in addition to causing permanent disabilities. If you don’t feel safe disclosing that you were protesting just say you were hit in the head, etc

It’s 2025. Jared Leto is starring in a Tron sequel, Kevin Spacey won an award at Cannes, Ezra Miller, Shia LaBoeuf, and James Franco all walked the Cannes red carpet, Garrison Keillor and Ryan Adams are touring, Louis CK won a Grammy… Tell me again that “cancel culture” exists

stay safe! avoid kettles!!

When people say that ”things were better back in the day,” I can only assume they're talking about 1983 frog phone

At no point in this entire article of 16 paragraphs does ABC mention that another cop killed this cop by shooting her in the back. Nor does it mention the name of the cop who killed this cop. Nor does it mention that the civilians involved never fired at them. ABC might as well be state media.

Babe Ruth made a cameo appearance in Harold Lloyd's Speedy (1928)

UPDATE: David Huerta was just released from custody!

Happy 19th Birthday to Sitka, the steller sea lion! 🎂🥳

Kudos to the Venice Film Festival for recognizing Kim Novak as "one of the most beloved icons of an entire era of Hollywood films." The 92 year old will receive the Golden Lion for Lifetime Achievement — and a new documentary on her work in VERTIGO (1958) will premiere at the Festival. #FilmSky

CM Punk saying I don’t defend billionaires and making a match for Saudi Arabia in the same segment. 💔

John Cena: “It’ll be CM Punk vs John Cena one last time...” Me: “Oh hell yeah” John Cena: “in Saudi Arabia” Me:

Heads up! There's a documentary about All the Kings Men, the band from the TV show Stairway to Stardom, that's been uploaded to YouTube. www.youtube.com/watch?v=_CbZ...

Your tax dollars pay for just about everything a police department does, which includes generating tons of reports, dispatch logs, and video recordings. Any citizen is entitled to see those public records to understand how the government works. By @andrewfordnews.bsky.social (Published June 2020)

Finally heard back from voc rehab. The earliest they could get me in for an intake appointment was July 31st. 🙃 I'd really appreciate it if y'all could share my ko-fi link and toss a few dollars my way if you can. 💜#MutualAid ko-fi.com/rlmroczkowski

It's podcast eve! On tomorrow's show, this happens:

Maybe Happy Ending for Tony ratings? Per early Nielsen data provided by CBS, 2025's show notched 4.9m viewers, the best Broadway's biggest night since 2019 (5.5M) and up 38% vs. last year (3.5M.) Methinks the 2026 hosting gig is Ms. Erivo's to snag--if she wants it.

You forgot to mention that Dave built Barstool on racism and extreme misogyny.

1330. Focus on the mass.

if seeing a mexican flag in a protest photo is what makes someone embrace ICE and their tactics, i just don't think they were really an "undecided" or an "independent" or even "on the fence."

So the job hunt hasn’t been fruitful at all and living expenses in LA are kicking my ass. I have my hearing on my unemployment case in a moment but I’m not getting my hopes up

January 6, 2021. That's my only response to any idiot spouting this pathetic, faux-tough-guy posturing. January 6, 2021.

Looking for sapphic RRRRrrrrromaantasy? How about a book that absolutely positively rocked Tara's world? "I’m going to need to read it at least a few more times to pull apart all the nuances, because there is just so much there." Read her review here: bit.ly/3HrR6dd
