it really sucks to be responsible for the solitary point that was missed the whole night, thereby keeping us from a perfect score at @geekswhodrink, as i did to @markhardboiled @cecycorrea tonight. (at The @HighballAustin in Austin, TX for #geekswhodrink)

living up to our team name, @cecycorrea & i may have occupied Deniz & Shane's spots at the bar, but we sadly couldn't quite muster a top-three finish like 'em at tonight's @geekswhodrink (at The @HighballAustin in Austin, TX w/ @johnwsmith @jsterlingpound)

after a couple of near-misses w/ losing it forever, my ADHD ass is so proud of how much better i'm getting at immediately returning the charging case to my bluetooth earbuds into my pants pocket as soon as i'm finished putting 'em in my ears.

#NowWatching: had never seen Christophe Gans' 2006 adaptation of the SILENT HILL franchise before tonight's #TerrorTuesday screening of it. not so sure i was wrong to have been wisely skipping it all these years. (at @AlamoDrafthouse Cinema – South Lamar)

#NowRewatching: stayed ahead of a terrible storm for this inaugural #AGFADROME screening: @filmarchive's freshly-scanned DCP of H. Tjut Djalil's 1989 film LADY TERMINATOR. (at Alamo @Drafthouse Cinema – South Lamar in Austin, TX for #LadyTerminator [1989])

#NowWatching: it's become such a cliché to just keep rewatching JAWS every memorial day weekend, so to get a little spicy, let's try Steven Spielberg's 1977 film CLOSE ENCOUNTERS OF THE THIRD KIND for a change. (at AFS Cinema – @austinfilm in Austin, TX)

listening the polly platt season of @RememberThisPod & arrived to the filming for 1978's PRETTY BABY in new orleans, when polly was surprised to learn that brooke shields' mom teri found a bar that was open to allow teri to be drunk by 11am, audibly bemused by the nola of it all.

RT @adamgoodell: The mayor from Jaws is still the mayor in Jaws 2. It is so important to vote in your local elections.

.@Whataburger, i know your parent company is based in chicago nowadays, but could y'all please do me the kindness of adding an option of having one's sandwich cut in half whenever one is ordering thru y'all's mobile app? (at @Whataburger #84 in Austin, TX)

m.c. hammer badly mismanaged his finances & squandered his wealth has become a well-known cautionary tale, but can anyone explain why courteney cox & lisa kudrow can't sustain a comfortable existence from FRIENDS residuals that they're appearing in ads for a match 3 mobile game⁈

unduly influenced by @HannahHa, i have resigned myself to the idea that in my dwindling time left on earth, will i ever get another chance to eat @popeyes on the occasion of a new pope being named⁈ #PopeYes (at Popeyes Louisiana Kitchen in Austin, TX)

#NowWatching: closing out #DocDays 2025 w/ Bonni Cohen's heavy collage THE WHITE HOUSE EFFECT, and then Sandi Simcha DuBowski's SABBATH QUEEN, uplifting portrait of Rabbi Amichai Lau-Lavie. (at AFS Cinema – @austinfilm in Austin, TX w/ @steps_huettner)

#NowWatching: a nightcap rewatch of THE SHROUDS last night contributed to my late start for the last day of #DocDays, opening w/ David Usui's BEEN HERE, STAY HERE. (at AFS Cinema – @austinfilm in Austin, TX for #BeenHereStayHere )

#NowWatching: closing out my evening w/ my 2nd #DocDays 2025 screening, Elizabeth Lo's 2024 documentary MISTRESS DISPELLER, followed by a virtual q&a w/ the director herself. (at AFS Cinema – @austinfilm in Austin, TX for #MistressDispeller by @lizbklo)

"♫ that's just so typically May ♫" w/ @mauryjacks @MarkHardBoiled @cecycorrea & i reverted to our classic seating arrangement for @geekswhodrink tonight & look what it got us: 3rd place 🤦🏻‍♂️ (at The @HighballAustin in Austin, TX for #geekswhodrink )

as tempting as certain memes might be this time of year, please keep in mind that for a myriad of reasons, Justin Timberlake is a sh*tty person, so please consider using this instead.

it occurred to me during my latest rewatch that despite SINNERS having a negligible drop in box office for its 2nd week of release, WB Discovery will inevitably fumble the bag by not letting it breathe & continue to print 'em money in cinemas by prematurely dumping it on HBO MAX.

#NowRewatching: unless a 70mm print makes its way here, one last SINNERS redux at the 4pm showing in IMAX, b/c of the limited options in town, it's been the most primo experience (at Bullock Museum IMAX Theatre in Austin, TX for #SinnersMovie w/ @j4titude)

. @drafthouse, where's my free popcorn⁈
