3 years ago I saw The Last Jedi and realized if I didn’t do something, I was going to become the same kind of fan that threw a hissy fit after The Phantom Menace. TLJ def wasn’t my favorite Episode. Had #StarWars changed or had I?

A short story of mine is releasing today as part of the Curious Cats collection from @ThaliaPress!!! My story, Back Pasture, is one of 12 mysteries of the feline persuasion. You can order a copy here: amazon.com/Curious-Cats-O…

Hilarious that ER casts Michael Rappaport as a man who dies from a chemical burn and then they reveal that his ex-wife hates him because he walked out on her and his newborn daughter. Incredible work.

Close enough House of Leaves adaptation.

Duke would have been better off just holding it. Ten seconds left, just take the half court violation. Maybe UCONN gets the ball with 0.1 seconds left?

This primary is a referendum on 2024. Do you think Democrats made fundamental errors or was it a fluke?

Rewatching Breaking Bad, Bob Odenkirk is throwing 98 mph and painting the corners in every scene he’s in.

Crossplay is eating Words with Friends’ lunch with this little feature. Who needs drugs when you have a win probability chart like this?

Hilarious bit in Breaking Bad where *every* side character is wearing a memorial ribbon for the plane crash victims EXCEPT for Walt.

@JoePostingg I didn’t think it wanted you to “side” with them at all. You’re supposed to be appalled by the whole affair. The central characters are both perpetrators and victims of a meaningless conflict that leaves homes destroyed and several people maimed or dead.

Warfare (2025) is a weird movie. It's a brutally accurate depiction of a military operation where the filmmakers want you to side with the guys doing monstrous things for unclear reasons.

The Texas Senate Primary boils down to this: who is running a campaign like MJ Hegar or Collin Allred and who is running a campaign like Mike Collier or Beto O’Rourke? I know my answer.

ICE can take the express elevator to hell.

If you know, you know.

@bottleneckloser I’ve taught in public schools for almost a decade. I want my child taught by a trained professional in every subject! Not taught by me, a layman, learning how to teach Math, Science, Art, Reading, Social Studies, etc. It’s asinine.

In my experience in working with homeschoolers as an environmental educator, they were crazy at stuff their parents are good at but are soooo behind on everything else. If ur parents are good at math, you’re cracked at math, but then you can’t read for shit because ur dad can’t

The most dumbfounding choice here is setting soooooo much of the story inside people’s minds or in a secret THIRD dimension that looks like a planet Riddick would crash land on. It looks terrible and makes much of the season a slog to get through.

Finally finished Strange Things. For the most part I feel it nailed the character beats and emotional moments, but it’s weighed down by exposition, muddy visuals, and a story that veers away from what made the first four seasons great television.

The last 30 minutes of It’s A Wonderful Life hit like a million bricks.

“To my brother George, the richest man in town.”

@jonathanmb32 What’s changed is the villainy on display mirrors our own government too closely. How different is Lockjaw to the ghouls in power right now? Bardem’s Chigurh or Waltz’s Landa we can distance ourselves from because of time and setting. The academy doesn’t want a mirror.

There was literally a three-year run in Best Supporting Actor of unflinching villains running away with that category

I voted in this poll.

If every Democrat ran as well as she did, we’d end up with 250 seats in the house.
