I love Sean’s “keep making films for the big screens” mantra which he has made a trademark on the Anora festival and awards circuit but the bit about parents sharing films in theaters with their kids felt especially resonant tonight. Do this, please. If theaters are meant to survive, they need kids.

Hulu ruining the Oscars is really poetic coming after Sean Baker’s speech about streaming services killing the movies

The NYT asking with a straight face: “Why, after more than a decade of TV representation would transgender Americans be losing ground?” www.nytimes.com/2025/02/28/a...

if i were winning an award for emilia perez (ew) i would simply fucking say anything about the assault on trans lives and rights in this country

Unbelievable headline

My rationale for putting ANORA at the top of my best-of list is that I came out of the theater floating like a cartoon character sniffing a pie on a window sill. Nice to see others felt likewise, if not specifically likewise.

As long as we’re talking about movies there’s no better collection of film quotes than Money Plane

Anora is an excellent choice for Best Picture. Two things: 1. Anora feels like the closest thing to a modern take on a 60s-era Billy Wilder film, I can’t quite explain why. 2. Go watch Tangerine and The Florida Project to see how good Sean Baker has been for a while.

A movie on my best of the year list won multiple Razzies (MEGALOPOLIS) & a movie on my worst of the year list won multiple Oscars (EMILIA PÉREZ). I think time will be kind to my stance on them.

As an occasional writer about superhero things who used to complain that "supervillain runs for office and wins" storylines are stupid because everyone knows Norman Osborn is the Green Goblin and they've seen him murder people on TV, I've had to reexamine many of my priors

We need to stop these circular firing squads in leftist circles, why just the other day they tried to cancel Sexpest McWarcrimes, for shame

Ratios like this are why i appreciate bluesky

people who think and act this way shouldn't be allowed to live in society. we need to bring back exile. stick this lady on a boat and shove her off into the sea.

Finally reunited

Ain’t no rule that JD Vance’s mom can’t trade him for percs again

Reading Jon Moxley's memoir (called MOX), it's great. He's got a great & relatable writing style. I think even a non-wrestling fan would enjoy this book. I've been reading it on my lunch breaks at work & I've had to explain to a few coworkers what I was laughing at.

congrats to all the liberals calling the attacks on trans people in the U.S. "tragic but inconsequential since there aren't all that many of them" for finally finding out what they'd have done in 1930s germany

Why the phrase ‘step aside’ was invented

me ending emails with "Best Regards"

I disagree with his policy of being a sexual harasser

you do not, under any circumstances, gotta hand it to Andrew Cuomo

remember when this guy covered up a brutal police killing? i do!

Zelenskyy stayed in Kyiv while Russia was bombing the city and sending in hit squads to kill him. J.D. Vance fled to an undisclosed location because some peaceful protesters yelled at him while he was on vacation. This is why I believe victory over these people is still possible.

Andrew Cuomo, in addition to being a serial sexual harasser, knowingly sent people with Covid into old folks homes, leading to a massive rate of infection and death for the elderly. Read and share the @propublica.org story about how Andrew Cuomo killed your elders.

NYT editorial staff choke on rusty nails in Hell challenge.

These people have spent years saying the cancellation of college lectures was a slippery slope to totalitarianism. Now that marginalized minorities are losing their rights — literally the Niemöller poem — it's just an oopsie with no broader implications.

I'm not sure what to call this if not evil. www.washingtonpost.com/immigration/...

🚨 BREAKING: After torpedoing yesterday’s meeting with Zelensky, JD Vance fled to Vermont for vacation—only to be met by hundreds of furious protesters. Couldn’t have happened to a better guy!

Marco Rubio is like having Tom Wambsgabs as Secretary of State, a man whose ambition is to be an empty suit, on board to take any stance, say anything, whatever the boss wants, and sponge up some of the pain that comes back, all for the trappings, the title, the plane rides, the suits, to be there.

how is everyone not tired of being ruled by decroded senile old fucks

Donald Trump literally told Zelensky to surrender his territory to appease Putin. This is a literal threat to Europe. Of course they are pissed, and they should be.

JD Vance made me so mad yesterday that I’m going to stop recommending Hillbilly Elegy to the other members of my liberal book club.

Big time “thanks again" to everyone who breathlessly lifted up Hilbilly Elegy

I just want to know what the beef between Gary and that lady was no waaay he was just standing there by coincidence lmao

rfk jr. coughing up a whole flattened armadillo with tire tread marks on it and suddenly talking normal

Genuinely appalling and revealing how much more thorough, thoughtful and well-researched the videogame speedrunning community has been in evaluating Elon Musk's claims than the tech press or DC political press youtu.be/z1ykCc588Zw?...

If I wrote this, you all would say I was taking the bit too far, wouldn't you?

the GOP knows how badly Trump fucked up and so are in ALL HANDS ON DECK mode to quickly spin a different story, reminiscent of Trump's bad loss to Harris in the Presidential debate. You will learn a lot by watching and observing who in the media goes along with this push!

UPDATE: HE RETURNED IT

the most ashamed i have felt as an American was recognizing all my Iraqi friends had a specific facial expression when talking about dead loved ones that meant, "they were killed by your military but i don't want to say that because we're buds and i don't want you to feel bad"

there were a lot of people who were absolutely convinced that harris dropped the ball by not going on rogan and every single thing rogan said during the campaign and has said since the campaign suggests that he never intended to actually have her

‘A cat is never on the side of power’ Chris Marker

The attack on DEI shows why liberals should stop arguing about "strategic" use of language forever. DEI stands for three uncontroversial virtues that most every American accepts, and the right still turned it into a vile slur. It doesn't matter what you say - they will poison it because YOU said it.

Again, the richest man in human history personally individually directed this
