Discord message from August 23, 2025: "I have to say, I feel like I was witness to some kind of male bonding ritual. Bros were loudly whispering Pacino's lines to each other, laughing and *definitely* sobbing, and when it ended a little group stood up and clapped while slowly turning around to see if the rest of us would follow suit. I've gained immunity to cringe through long trials on the internet, but I felt...the Heat"
Get an email from PlayStation saying I have to verify my age to use chat services and not that I’m chatting to any other gamers anyway but after a while it just feels like I’ll not be arsed to use most of the internet if it keeps going on like this

I remember traveling on one of those short-term "mission trips" churches do as a teenager, thinking that my knowledge of Spanish would be very helpful in the Yucatán. When I got to Xochenpich what I discovered instead was that the more rural people spoke Mayan, and knew less Spanish than I did.
Sexually abusing women is expressive; it indicates values. These men's values disqualify them for both the responsibility and the dignity of power.
Wait, does he get a gun?
Hulk Hogan in some sort of fetish gear in this movie for children
The kids can read now and so they know of the existence of the secret fourth "3 Ninjas" movie on the disc, and so they must see it for themselves instead of believing me that it is bad, but at least we get Hulk Tarhogyan
If you haven't seen it, So Fades the Light seems like it would fit well with what you've listed
The replacement of Jesus with Trump as the messianic figure in right wing American Christianity is predicated on plausible deniability, and Trump breaks this contract every time he explicitly acknowledges that he has taken the place of Christ in their worship.
"Genuine article" feels too complimentary for Mr. "Patterns of coordinated inauthentic behavior"
Actually he's summoning in to help us kill god once again
Minerva staring soulfully up from my lap
How she looks at me when it's movie night just like every night
No doubt the requisite minds have many "common-sense" adages about the Hungarian race (?) and if not, they will soon
Mom silently enters the room first, then emerges with an armful of oil tankers.
"YOU'RE RUINING MY LIFE MOM! WORST DAY EVER!"
The principal of my kids' elementary school just celebrated her birthday and dispensed temporary tattoos of her face making a silly expression to every student. I then ran into her on Saturday at the farmer's market with her face on both my (face) cheeks per my kids' wishes. 😅

Bisexual in the sense that—
This imo is one of the dark sides of true crime as a category of media for entertainment/consumption. Even though its defenders often insist they're protecting women, they have this breathtaking sense of entitlement to all information about their target despite being basically just voyeurs.
Nooo don't say this Jennifer Tilly and Brad Dourif are both For the Girls 😭
I always forget I have a letterboxd profile, but I do like the stats, so I took the time to log (I think) all my movies since February during munchkin's karate class

Amateur sleuths in the comments really exposing that they can't even read headlines, let alone the article itself
"...perhaps the longing for safety was itself just another kind of violence—a violence of cowardice, silence, submission. What was safety, anyway, but the sound of a bomb falling on someone else's home?" —Omar El Akkad, American War
I remember the gasp in the theater
"I'm a cowboy//On a steel horse I ride" every day in Anchorage
It's like the saw about hammers and nails. Bezos never met a problem he couldn't solve with a pee bottle.
idk but it actually feels like an intensification of degree rather than a difference in kind that after one president arms a genocide while disavowing it the next would just go ahead and explicitly threaten to use our weapons for another one
The fact that everyone isn't asking this is proof that they don't read good books around children
Hey if you're a young adult in the US pay very close attention to the moment because in shockingly few years the popular account of who did or said or supported what right now will be at times unrecognizable. Don't let that break your brain or just you, as a person.
The so-called Leader of the Free World is proudly signalling his intent to commit open-and-shut defintional genocide against one of the world's oldest civilisations. There is no equivocation to disguise how disgustingly evil this is, and any politician who remains silent before it is irredeemable.
This one is a hell yeah
