"The Dream of the 90s is Alive in Portland" is 15 years old; it is as far from us as the Macarena summer is from its release

From my review of PER ASPERA AD ASTRA: It is tiresome to see a battle between good and evil once again devolve into a fistfight between the hero and the baddie, but when the hero throws punches while yelling "Screw your bullshit meta-verse, I'll beat the shit out of you!" then we have no choice but to stan.

'Per Aspera Ad Astra' Film Review - A Spectacular Anti-AI Thrill Ride It’s so nice to see something uniting the entire world, especially when that thing is a hatred for artificial intelligence. Per Aspera Ad Astra is a Chinese kids’ movie, released for the lunar new yea...

PER ASPERA AD ASTRA 📽️ is a blockbuster Chinese kids' movie about the evils of AI and it's nice to see hating AI bringing the whole world together! I had fun movieswetextedabout.com/per-aspera-a...

Star Power Makes 'Late Fame' (Glasgow 2026 Film Review) Who’d be young? With your whole life ahead of you and no sense of who you’re truly are, you live in anticipation of a brilliant future that will obviously come to pass somehow. On the other hand, who’...

Is LATE FAME 📽️ a perfect movie? No. Thanks to the astonishing central performances of Willem Dafoe and Greta Lee, does that matter? Not a whit movieswetextedabout.com/star-power-m...

Happy-go-lucky "Skiff" is a Golden Coming of Age (BFI Flare 2026 Film Review) The main takeaway from Skiff is that it is an unusually kind portrait of a family. It’s a picture of the time when the children are in their late teens and can largely take care of themselves. They ha...

I really liked SKIFF 📽️ which is about a young person on the cusp of some big realisations about herself in the context of a happy and supportive family that doesn't quite know how to help. The sibling relationship shown here is unusually strong movieswetextedabout.com/happy-go-luc...

YOU, ME & TUSCANY 📽️ is a sweetheart of a romcom, Regé-Jean Page has earned his seat in heaven with his work here, and we have got to get smarter about what we go to the movies for. Plus bonus references to Denzel in addition to the footnotes! movieswetextedabout.com/you-me-tusca...

'Seized' is The Moment (Sundance 2026 Film Review) Since Seized showed at the Sundance Film Festival, news has dropped about the dismantling of the Washington Post by its billionaire owner. The ability of a free and fair press to hold power to account...

SEIZED, which played Sundance 📽️, is a very very very important documentary about the importance of journalism and the danger of complacency when it comes to how freedom of the press is being eroded movieswetextedabout.com/seized-is-th...

All those "show us what you looked like ten years ago" or "show your green art/animal art/art of women" memes are being used to train AI

Exclusive: ICE Glasses Homeland Security is making “smart glasses” to collect intelligence on Americans

Here's what a senior homeland official told me about their development of ICE smart glasses: "It might be portrayed as seeking to identify illegal aliens...but the reality is that a push in this direction affects all Americans, particularly protesters."

This Is Just To Say

I have turned off
the AI features

and which
you were probably
hoping
to monetize

Fuck you
they were stupid
so unnecessary
and so annoying

This remains the best sartorial choice I have ever seen at a gig

Number of velvet vulva hats at the gig: one

Number of youths on the security line who goggled at the vulva hat, then clutched each other and whispered "do you think she knows what it looks like?": two

Band t-shirts of the gig: The Clash, Foster the People, Spice Girls, Kendrick Lamar

Best t-shirt of the gig: a young gentleman in a muscle shirt on which was printed WHOSE JIZZ IS THIS

Berlinale 2024 review: Teaches of Peaches Year: 2024 Runtime: 102 minutes Directed by: Philipp Fussenegger, Judy Landkammer Written by: Cordula Kablitz-Post, Schyda Vasseghi By Sarah Manvel The appeal of certain artists can always be boiled d...

TEACHES OF PEACHES #Berlinale is about art centered on disgust and despite this, like Fuck the Pain Away, completely rocks

The last few months have made it obvious: pregnancy-related arrests are on the rise, 'equal protection' bills to punish abortion patients as murderers have been introduced in over a dozen states—and now the groups that promised for years never to punish women are suddenly on board

"wow me with your best brightest love" I think I'm going to have to take a break again for a while

I think that Liu is my favourite Watson because traditionally when Holmes does some brilliant deduction, Watson's job is to say "My God, Holmes, how did you work that out?" in wonder, so the audience can see Holme's brilliance, while Liu's Watson asks because she wants to learn how she can do it too
