On And Introducing, @missmollymary.bsky.social and I are joined by @davidlsims.bsky.social from @blankcheck.bsky.social to talk this year's 2 Oscar nominated musician biopics, BETTER MAN and A COMPLETE UNKNOWN. Timmy, Bobby, Robbie, Monkey, & more! wherever you get pods: pod.link/1247934971/e...

wow I heard that if you preorder Simplicity you're actually VERY good-looking and cool

could use some writing gigs/side hustles rn! very good at: writing for television, writing about television (and other digital media writing/editing! i loved editing), fundraising/development, walking cute dogs, etc

#SaveThePCC Some of you may have read about the situation regarding our new landlord wishing to add a new redevelopment break clause, with only 6 months notice to our lease. For now, we're simply asking you all to share & sign the petition below; you.38degrees.org.uk/p/princechar...

In “Presence,” the director Steven Soderbergh finds his story by locking the monster behind the camera, writes David Sims. But the film is “less an entrée than a charming apéritif, albeit with a couple of smart twists worth ruminating on.”

I have wondered about this; certain it applies to RT audience score even more

that Emilia Perez number…

@blankcheck.bsky.social y’all proposed a Jelly counter on the Mickey Blue Eyes commentary to track when Jelly is supposed to appear on screen. Here is my mock up cc @davidlsims.bsky.social
