@soonrightaway Pynchon would never say this: He would sing it
English
Thomas Pynchon speaks out on co-writing the screenplay for Sam Levinson’s adaptation of Gravity’s Rainbow with Levinson himself.
“Sam is a wonderful collaborator and a fabulous friend with elite Thomas Pynchon ball knowledge. I have one thing to say: we’re cooking.”

@punishednuz The disrespect Robertson faces on this app daily because the limit of most people on this app’s definition of good cartooning ends at Dan Mora drives me batty. He’s so expressive and communicates so much so subtly
English
@Vanessa_ABee @anheqiao69 I think it’s inherently less active than reading print or braille. An audiobook will make choices for you through the tone and pacing of the narrator that the reader will have to make on their own. Audio books are good, but they engage the brain differently
English
@maxfriedmanmax @anheqiao69 you don’t think listening can be active?
English
is reading braille “reading” and why?
Sav Shawz@shawzsav
Hot take but listening to an audiobook is not reading and it’s actually insane to think otherwise
English
@Vanessa_ABee @anheqiao69 It’s about active rather than passive consumption
English
@anheqiao69 if things can be read through touch, why can’t they be read through other senses like hearing?

@JoestarJokic Wolves being unable to punish those same minutes was the most frustrating part of the whole series

@cavs_fn @lukeisamazing RJ is also very good at explaining the rules, him explaining why hacking Mitchell in the last two minutes still worked because Mitchell was part of the play was very clarifying
English
@lukeisamazing They’ve got good chemistry. Legs actually knows how to break down the game and RJ is great comedic relief on top of having great insight
English
ESPN has all that Disney money and can’t even find anyone competent to pair with Mike Breen. you can’t put talent like that with Tim Legler and Richard Jefferson, who barely have 3 brain cells to run together between them

@jaycaspiankang Biased as a wolves Fan but Wolves Nuggets 2024 game 7 was sick as hell
English
@NBABabySecret Wemby is just so beguiling. He’s the strangest looking man I’ve ever seen and he seems to have perfect control of his bizarre body. I can’t help but feel like I’m getting a wonderful show watching him, and I say that as a Wolves fan
English
Getting pushback on this.
Look, I’m THE “the Thunder are annoying” guy. I get it
But at the end of the day they are a normal very good team. It’s not existential to a decade of Basketball.
We are gonna be so sick of this Wemby shit by year 10 I’m telling you.

How rooting for the Spurs to win feels

@MichaelRedd_ I’ve had so much fun with my friends these last few years, and ultimately isn’t that what a hobby is all about?
English
Saw someone else already said this, but winning a ring isn't the only definition of success.
If you asked Minnesota fans three years ago if they'd take the run they've had, most would say yes. It's some of the best seasons in history, even without a ring.
I'm sure Sacramento fans would take the early 2000s back if they could, too, even though they didn't win a ring.

I really hate how when a team loses we relitigate everything. The Wolves gave up a bunch of picks for Rudy and he had a bad Game 6 against a better team. They traded KAT because of the CBA for Randle and he had a bad series. They made two WCFs and got to the second round, for a team that has been a historical joke since KG in 2004, TWENTY years ago. They built a good team, they couldn't get it to put it together. It doesn't mean it wasn't worth it.
English
@lachancenaomi27 You honestly don’t see any artistic intent beyond the erotic? Nothing about depicting the realities of life?
English
@MaxMenoitiades It’s called having fun with language, aka a joke. One could even call it queering language. Also, everyone knows exactly what it meant, so what’s the point of acting confused?
English
there has been a growing number of people using the phrase “jerk off” in this way, and it must stop. jerk is a penile verb. i recall a man getting flamed on tiktok for talking about “flicking his bean” and rightfully so! what bean? what was gillian jerking?
Max Friedman@maxfriedmanmax
@Michell6454304 @soonrightaway *makes a movie where Gillian Anderson jerks off Hannah Einbender* I sure hope no one is uncouth enough to say this made them horny

Outmogged by Big Ennis once again

From comics to live-action, the final episode of ‘THE BOYS’.
English
@soonrightaway Yeah if he had written something completely different it would be completely different
English
as a professional writer i feel like you should be able to say an actress is beautiful or write about a movie’s eroticism without being like “i got a freaking boner and needed to go to the bathroom to jerk my little ding dong”
English
@Srirachachau @KolleenCarney People are calling it “safe horny” but apparently that’s not safe enough! And it’s because he’s a successful critic? The idea that a critic has to censor themselves once their successful enough to meet the artists their critiquing seems counter-intuitive
English
@maxfriedmanmax @KolleenCarney At worst it’s corny but it’s really nothing
English
Is this one of those sexless 25 year old radfem accounts? Is this movie not meant to be a horny romp? Christ this is the least "gross" joke I've ever come across that has this much hand wringing around it
caroline :)@soonrightaway
i’m aware it’s not a review lol it’s a gross joke made by a professional film critic on a public forum. what does it being in a review or not have to do with anything. my point is that film critics shouldn’t be doing the “step on me Gillian Anderson” schtick at all. it’s creepy!
English
@Srirachachau @KolleenCarney That’s the thing that’s really made it stick in my craw. Calling “100 years horny jail” sexual harassment is just beyond the pale, it’s so tame
English
@KolleenCarney I feel like it would be different if he was ogling the actresses in the review but that’s not what he did
English
@tornadojally Mayo Clinic saved your boy Bron least you can do is get us a ring
English
@DCTalks1009 @Michell6454304 @soonrightaway Like, I get it, men are scary. But he didn’t even say anything really out of pocket. If it was “I wanna huff Einbenders farts” it’d be one thing, but “100 years horny jail” is a crazy thing to pearl clutching over
English
@maxfriedmanmax @Michell6454304 @soonrightaway Not trying to be too controversial here but swap his gender to female and keep the relationship, kids and age and this wouldn’t be an issue I suspect
English
it drives me nuts that professional film critics talk like this. there’s a level of fame/industry access at which this sort of thing crosses over from “being annoying” to “sexual harassment” lol
English
@Michell6454304 @soonrightaway Sorry, disagree. This is a critic deliberately engaging with the work, and it’s also just a throwaway letterbox review. You’re just imagining them being offended by this, and it’s a puritanical impulse
English
@maxfriedmanmax @soonrightaway sorry but if you have a solely professional relationship w someone, it is a weird thing to say. there are ways as a critic to talk about erotic art without going “i’m going to horny jail!”
he’s 40 y/o. it’s uncouth. and it’s the same shit as these moron influencers on junkets
English
