It ain’t looking good for Target 🤷🏽‍♀️

The Skip and Loafer gang on their way to school 🌸👞

Started watching White Lotus and the only way I can describe this show is it’s got a sense of slice of life with dramatic moments that are more comedic, and all the while, we’re just watching rich people say and do dumb and absurd things. I’m enjoying it but I’m still trying to figure out the hype.

Idk if this does anything but because we still have cable, whenever an ad for the wizard boy world at Universal comes on, I change the channel. Get that terf’s shit off my tv, goddamn

Rediscovering artists in my 30’s that I used to listen to in my 20’s is a wild experience. And the best part is that any bad memories I have attached to them have more or less gone poof, so it just feels so refreshing and new while also feeling nostalgic. If you feel healed enough? I recommend it.

For context: The OVERWHELMING majority of films experience a 40-50% drop in box office receipts in their 2nd week. Studios prepare themselves for that as a given in their business models. A 10% drop the week after release is unheard of.

if coogler looked like damien chazelle no one would question the studio deal given his record of hits. fruitvale station: $17 million on a budget of $900K creed: $173 million on a budget of $35 mil black panther: $1.35 BILLION on a budget of $200 mil bp2 2: $859 million on a budget of $250 mil

Movie you watched more than 6 times using gifs

y’all…forgive me. I never mathed the math and just realized mid-convo about him that Vader/Anakin died at 45 😭

Wondering where to spend your money (or which bookstore choose as your "home" store on Bookshop or Libro.fm)? I've put together a couple of starter packs of #indiebookstores to help. go.bsky.app/DZdrHhm go.bsky.app/9bTR428

People need to not bring J*nathan M*jors into the Sinners conversation. Idgaf how good an actor that man is, he went and fucked up, and that’s it. Y’all need to stop wondering what if over that man and start wholeheartedly appreciating the incredible talent of Michael B Jordan and what he did.

We need to publicize major AI failures so we can completely eliminate it from society. 👍

This is a good and meaningful choice by the Democrats; I don’t know that they’ll be able to restore what’s been lost, but the senseless cruelty of this particular move must be, at minimum, seen in daylight

💥 BREAKING: Levi Strauss shareholders voted today to reject a proposal calling on the company to cease / abolish all DEI efforts (tally TBD). LEVI Board: “Diversity and inclusion principles are critical in ensuring that our products reflect and are relevant to our diverse global consumer base.”

When I left the Washington Post in 2023, my colleagues and I were worried AI would hoover up our work and enable "zombies" to churn out stories based on our reporting and writing styles. Today WaPo announced a partnership with OpenAI. And here it is: Zombie Gillian Brockell. I DID NOT WRITE THIS.

Good morning Happy Earth Day

moreover it's not just about humans surviving startup culture. it's critically also about the dinosaurs surviving startup culture! the humans and dinosaurs being occasionally at odds is a side effect, not the core tension. the villain is not t rex or velociraptor, it's hammond's arrogance

Ryan Coogler is a generational film talent that we don't talk enough about in those terms. That is all.

And on Earth Day? Fuck them.

ppl keep mistaking Jurassic Park for a survival film against dinosaurs when it's actually a survival film against startup culture

If the big “lesson” you took from Sinners was that women are always a man’s downfall, gtfoh. In fact, I’ll just block you lol. Like I don’t think we watched the same movie cuz idk how you can watch this and still find a way to disrespect Annie like that.

I would love to see an art book, script book, or making of book for Sinners. Give me ALL the BTS and concept art for this movie, cuz like I’m still obsessed and will never not be obsessed.

nobody likes religion but everyone loves a good papal conclave

every story about studios thinking SINNERS cost too much at $90M has me remembering THE ELECTRIC STATE cost allegedly $320M, and then I realize I'm the only person to remember THE ELECTRIC STATE, a movie that I have not heard one human person discussing at any point since its release

SINNERS is only deemed to have cost too much because i) R Rated ii) The studio don't get to keep it forever (the negative rights revert back to Ryan Coogler after 25 yrs) iii) Warners are in schtick iv) Zaslov resents every penny of outlay. He is not a creative, but an accountant v) fuck zaslov

as funny as the 'jd vance killed the pope' jokes are, let's not lose sight of the fact that he literally HAS been party to the actual murder of civilians including the bombing of an apartment building full of innocent people in yemen, that he described as 'excellent'

Counter-argument: You should use Sinners to springboard yourself into some other Black American horror like the following

For me, I will remember Francis as the Pope who called the Holy Family Church in Gaza every day as the city, and even the church itself, was bombed by Israel.

None of you in queer adjacent, leftist discords dare give them the scan of your ID or your face so you can view "mature content"; doing so would be extremely fucking stupid and endanger you and everyone else on the server.

Can't say I'm a fan of the organization, but the guy in charge the last few years seemed to have his head screwed on pretty straight.

To add to the list of #BlackHorror novels suggested in the quotes, I recommend Johnny Compton’s #TheSpiteHouse. It’s an awesomely creepy story about a Black father dealing with a haunted house (and other scary things, but no spoilers).

Is there a list of all the Black cultural references from Sinners, esp that dance scene? I can’t stop thinking about this movie and need to go down an entire a rabbit hole of folklore and analyses.

ill remove you. block you unfriend you.

“Hey you can’t come inside my house” has to be the funniest vampire rule aside from the one about running water which is just frankly laughable.

When I was in the bathroom after watching Sinners, two older Black women (complete strangers to each other) were talking about the movie and basically nerding out over it. It was awesome! That’s why we need stories like this! It’s new, it’s different, it connects people! That’s the gift of art!

Wrote about one incredible shot midway through "Sinners" that functions as its visual, musical, and thematic centerpiece. One of the best things I've seen this year: joysauce.com/the-incredib...

OH. MY. GOD. Sinners is so freaking good, y’all better watch this movie so Ryan Coogler can give us more movies with his brilliant vision.

Finished S2 of Severance and I need S3 right now. But in the meantime, analysis videos will do cuz this show has me messed up and is still giving me goosebumps.

i really need cis folks to get this through your heads. no, they don't want me in the women's bathroom. or the men's bathroom. they don't want gender-neutral bathrooms or special "trans only" bathrooms (like some will claim). they want me to simply not exist.

I really hate dealerships because tell me why my car has been kept hostage by them for 3 days now over something that could have been done in a day? And I know it could have been done in a day because I had the same problem twice and they fixed it…IN A DAY 😩

Pascal about JK Rowling and the anti trans law on UK: ‘I can't think of anything more vile and small and pathetic than terrorizing the smallest, most vulnerable community of people who want nothing from you, except the right to exist’

being 30+ is great cuz now anything fandom drama happens I can go "I'm too old for this" and anyone caught up in the drama will see im 30+ and assume I'm like 1 foot in the grave already cuz 99% of fandom drama is teenagers duking it out over dumb shit and they think being 30+ is old

OH SHIT!! I need her like three years ago!!
