I wonder if Avowed gets better and how much if every character vomiting exposition like they're talking to a five year old is a quirk of having to appeal to a gamepass audience that's not inherently committed. Or maybe I'm forgetting that other games were like this

Oregon is a good state because it has adopted the key lesson of Fromsoft design that you must have at least two poison swamps (Hawthorne Fred Meyer and State Leg building)

More movies should have Michael Jai White in them

Saddam's tunnel was wild

It's wild how relatively accessible keeping up with movies is versus other mediums. Seeing ~60 movies from last year means I've seen most movies people bring up and I couldn't have done one completionist run of BG3 in their combined runtime

🎵He knows when you are sleeping He knows when you're awake He knows by the way you use your walk You're a woman's man No time to talk🎶

Realizing I'm not grown up enough to not write a whole essay because a classmate says something that pisses me off

Brutalist/Anora Oscar race feels better than this world deserves

What do you mean Maria Limanskaya died last November? She was just a child really

I'm in awe that one movie managed to Chris Farley its way through trans identity, Mexican stereotypes and the concept of musicals, found time to fit in a visit to Israel, and then knocked All We Imagine as Light out of Oscar contention

Deleted a post about the inevitability of the Trump-Musk falling out because it is still terrifying for as long as it lasts

If getting queer-baited by Disney is losing chess to a dog, trying to cancel dril is getting involved in a land war in Asia

"oh ho, but just last year you said running people over with with a big steamroller was wrong!” I exclaim delightedly as my enemy fatally runs me over with a big steamroller. it seems I have won this battle of wits

Actually sometimes being disconnected is the smart thing

It'll be interesting to see how Trump squares saving TikTok with his tough on China rhetoric goo goo gaa gaa waahhhh

No one is prepared for the level of Sinophobia we're about to see from the In This House community

New vowels must have been invented here

Sometimes I listen to this YouTube video with all the original BioShock audio logs and that game still feels like a miracle

its adam and steve, not donald and trump!! #Resist

One wonderful quirk of getting older is having had the same kind of online interaction enough times that I can just fast forward to blocking people

I don't know what the practical solution to this is, but it's very annoying to be advertised a movie that not only hasn't come to my city but doesn't have an established time that it will. Like "yes, I want to see your movie, please make that possible. Why are you showing me if I can't have it"

Sound and the Fury ⛳🌊🪦💲

Imagine living in 2024

I'm sick of people talking about positions or power like they're an Xbox controller

Regal is running an M&M/Red One crossover ad where the red m&m edits himself into the movie. The premise is that this is a laughable idea, but I'd much rather watch that version

Goomer (noun) - one who enjoys legumes Gooming (verb) - eating legumes

No. Try again

Lot of talk about how dangerous Portland is but really the worst of it is that it creates unrealistic expectations for how quickly you can get through airport security

I have a friend who every year forgets what holiday I celebrate and wishes me a happy hanukkah and merry christmas (Not Jewish, but I'm flattered)

Fascinating watch if you had the question "what was the deal with that one extension everyone was promoting a few years ago?" bouncing around somewhere in the wrinkles of your brain

Listening to podcasts of people's year end top 10 movies and always kinda floored to hear Strange Darling make it. Really?

Low stakes conspiracy theory is that Obama hasn't actually watched a movie in 20 years
