It’s only the first one if they win 12 in a row.

You can’t fool me, they’re not allowed to win baseball games.

WNY native here. I know Bills heartbreak all too well.

The 2026 New York Mets: the most cursed team in history?

I’m sorry, the dude I keep hearing about on social media is out here seriously asking for “cool crimes”?

Orwell is so mad he never thought of "Go Pig or Go Home."

Caveat that I have not seen a certain upcoming musical biopic, but a lot of the displeasure with negative reviews sure sounds a lot like "How dare you remind me about the horrendous and indefensible allegations against this person whose music I like?"

…written by Nicholas Stoller? From the Muppet movies?

Being a Mets, Sabres, *and* Jays fan is really paying off today.

You ever try to code switch at work and fail? 😂

Honestly reads like a team full of people who absolutely cannot read the room. bsky.app/profile/pass...

I heard a Mets podcast today where one of the hosts acted amazed that people might want David Stearns gone. Yeah, man, he’s bad at his job.

I get that the manager is likely going first, but I dunno, the guy who a) hired that manager, b) fired all the coaches, c) traded away fan favorites, d) brought in a closer who can’t throw strikes, and e) brought in players to field positions they didn’t know ought to go.

McLean is great, but Mendoza seems incapable of letting a rested reliever pitch a clean inning in place of a tiring starter (great or otherwise). Sigh.

Why did Mendoza even let McLean pitch the seventh? The sixth suggested he might be tiring, and…well…

Obviously Walk Hard.

we all know I have no life, so:

I just keep hearing Kevin Kline in A Fish Called Wanda, shouting “We did not lose Vietnam, that was a tie!”

If they have any props from the "Tess as Julia Roberts" scene from Ocean's Twelve, I'm in.

The Tonight Show is built to liquify all phenomena into content. Trump, the political reactionary and demagogue, the harbinger of a crisis, was treated not as a threat to democracy or a figure of public concern, but just another wacky celebrity guest willing to play along. Fallon and his show are not horrifying because they are malevolent, actively creating suffering in the world, but because of a thoughtless, systematic refusal to perceive any of their work as having ethical consequences. Trump’s monstrosity becomes merely eccentric, as neoliberal media packaged as entertainment normalizes a failing status quo.

Illustration of Jimmy Fallon looking demonic

This is such a great encapsulation of the horror of the Tonight Show.

Well, take your time, guys, not like he's needed.

Some of us remember George of the Jungle very well! (Not even kidding: it’s slight but underrated.)

The sanitization and sanctification of Michael Jackson is one of those subjects I can't seem to talk about with calmness or rationality; I just stare at these money-machine enterprises and feel revulsion. I think I'll skip the discourse on this upcoming movie.

It’s not quite that niche, but Redwall.

The Jackson estate can't hide Leaving Neverland from those who've already seen it A suppressive legal battle turned the moving Sundance documentary Leaving Neverland into a ghost haunting the Michael Jackson biopic.

This essay, by @timgrierson.bsky.social, on Leaving Neverland and how so many people have once again chosen to ignore the reality of Michael Jackson’s legacy is as excellent as others have said: www.avclub.com/leaving-neve...

They could always try again with Disney’s America! (Not enough people know that nearly happened.)

I hate it when I have loose bodies just hanging around my elbow.

Honestly kind of a shame that they can't do something similar for older films' musical sequences. That's very clever.

My take on the debate over when to arrive at the airport is why do any of you care enough about this to debate it
