Man, if only we had decades of movies and centuries of literature warning us about the consequences of fanaticism, greed, and unchecked power.

It doesn't matter if I agree with your stated opinion, if you post AI images, I'm muting and/or blocking you. They aren't fun and they're not funny.

Go find a cartoon drawn by a human to make your point.

Robert E. Lee got his ass beat at Gettysburg by a professor of rhetoric and oratory from Bowdoin College and generations of reactionary fantasists have died mad about it.

Again I would like to reiterate, as something of an expert on the man and his work: there is actually nothing funnier or less film-literate than accusing someone of *ripping off Quentin Tarantino*

This whole concept in LOTR is one of my favourite parts of the whole book. “Evil fucks up because evil people fundamentally cannot imagine that others are not motivated by the same things as them” is another theme that feels relevant right now

It's been a popcorn week for my #LastFourWatched. The only commonality I can find this #LetterBoxdFriday are the quality actors (and voices) who elevated these movies beyond the writing. In the Turtles' case, include the animators.

Welcome to my #LastFourWatched nominee edition — past and present.

#Oscars 2025 hot takes: While One Battle After Another is a very good movie, Sinners deserves to take home best picture.

And sorry Ethan Hawke, you're great, but Delroy Lindo is overdue.

I am reminded that a startling number of people believe that if you’re a member of the military and you don’t like something your government did, you can just throw up your hands and quit the next day like any other job.

It Does Not Work That Way

All I know is that Past Me is a lazy screwup whose job apparently involves ruining everything for Present Me.

This leaves Present Me without the time or energy to help Future Me. But that's ok. What's Future Me ever done for anyone anyway?
