FUN FACT: Michelle Obama and Jill Biden never had to hold a press conference to deny being part of a sex trafficking ring.

I’ll be offering trainings for Democrats on how to write Christian holy day tweets free of charge.
Please don’t let your 23-year-old intern who just finished reading their Costar natal chart be in charge of this stuff.

Easter embodies the idea that the past does not bind the future, that stunning new possibilities are open to us if we decide to rise, and that the only way we rise is together.

Remember how Gen X used to get shit on all the time because we were lazy and entitled and didn’t win a world war? Fast forward a few decades and we’re looking like fucking rock stars now, man.

My Cousin Vinny turns 34 today.
This fish‑out‑of‑water legal comedy coming was a perfect storm: Joe Pesci fresh off his Goodfellas Oscar, a sharp script that’s surprisingly accurate about the law, and Marisa Tomei on Oscar‑winning form - rare for a comedy.
Yoots of today, eh?

@TomiLaffly I even reviewed it on the NBC affiliate here in Little Rock, Arkansas.

Well, DREAMS was reviewed by *all* the trades, + NYTimes, Independent, Guardian, Telegraph, AP, Tribune, SF Chronicle, + AV Club, RogerEbert, Slant & various blogs. It IS being written about but not talked about. Says more about the state of marketing-driven film culture to me.
Rob’s Cheaper, Ad-Supported Version@r0bwatson
It says a lot about the current state of film criticism that a movie with Jessica Chastain as a San Francisco philanthropist in a sexually obsessive relationship with an undocumented Mexican ballet dancer is currently playing in 100+ theaters and no one is writing about it.

I hate that I had to grow up in the generation that got to see what life was like before the internet and then have to watch as it single-handedly destroys every single social entertainment space. Video rental stores, movie theaters, malls, arcades, bowling alleys, etc. The infinite access to at-home entertainment is turning us all into lazy, antisocial, depressed hermits and we’re just willingly allowing this to happen to us. The long term ramifications of this are so dire.

My hometown movie theater that I’ve seen almost every major blockbuster from the last two decades at and used to go with giant groups of friends to to line up for midnight premieres just suddenly closed this past week and I’m absolutely devastated 😭😭😭

@KeithandMovies I actually watched it again myself last night for the second time since my movie club discussed it today

@mcookAR It’s so good. I’ve watched it three times and it has had the same impact each viewing.

Interesting how Ron DeSantis touts as his record the capture and sabotage of institutions as a means to exercise power, but not a thing about how he improved people’s lives with that power. Really revealing of his mindset.

Younger generations “have fallen out of love with Harry Potter because they have fallen out of love with the worldview the series represents,” writes Louise Perry. “Which is to say that young people have fallen out of love with liberalism.” nyti.ms/3YZrXfu

Your state has the 7th highest homicide rate in the nation — over double California’s.
Spare us the grandstanding over “enforcing the law”— you’re a heartless fraud.
Tom Cotton@SenTomCotton
The deaths of Renee Good and Alex Pretti are regrettable tragedies. They could’ve been avoided—& further unrest can be avoided—if state & local officials work with federal law enforcement and stop encouraging civilians to interfere. There can be no mob veto on enforcing the law.

Did you know Eddie Murphy starred in a new comedy last summer? That John Cena and Idris Elba led a buddy flick? Jack Black played Santa! Melissa McCarthy met a genie! These are real movies, not 30 Rock-style gags. Welcome to the era of Black Hole Movies. theglobeandmail.com/culture/film-a…

UPDATE: Trump granted clemency to the son of his GOP congressional ally @rep_stevewomack.
James P. Womack was sentenced to 8 years in prison for distributing methamphetamine.
His release reunited him with his family during a difficult time for them.

The problem with Hamnet isn’t that it it’s inaccurate. It’s that it’s shockingly dull. slate.trib.al/62BRoEi
