I don’t have an issue with people dunking on that bad Eddington review. I welcome dissent but that review’s a fundamental misunderstanding of what a film “should” be. Even worse, it’s one of the top reviews. It represents a crisis in the American psyche much like the movie itself.

I had a dream last night that Eric Adams quote-tweeted me. I need to shoot my phone with a gun.

When I stumble upon my coworkers' personal passion projects I get so sad. They all have passions, yet spend their waking hours selling [redacted] to people who don't even want them. So many dreams die on the vine.

A postmortem on mid-aughts American populism, but more importantly a foundational text for those seeking a futile path of righteousness in a broken world.

HIGHEST 2 LOWEST. Starts slow. Spike starts to cook halfway through. Then the last 20 minutes overstay the movie’s welcome. Did not love it.

Watched HIGH AND LOW and FANTASTIC MR. FOX totally randomly back-to-back on Friday. I was hooting and hollering when Anderson riffed on the Kurosawa’s mistaken kidnapping motif.

Incredibly reductive. Some of the best art ever has been made by awful people. Kanye West, Ezra Pound, Ingmar Bergman…. I wonder why we don’t give Akerman the same grace?.

My WEAPONS review. I loved the structure. I also loved what the movie tried to say once the supernatural mystique fell away.

Zach Cregger's horror epic, 'Weapons', works on multiple levels, but gets its true point across when the supernatural allegories fall into the background.

I’m tired of being quiet about it. This is one of the best movies of all time.

I ordered a $6 espresso tonic at the fancy coffee shop and they asked to see my credit score.

This piece really captures the affirming nature of the Dead and how it’s become a project that lasts longer than any of its members. AND how despite their label as a psychedelic band (not wrong), they wrote outlaw music.

The biggest problem with the Internet is that we weren’t supposed to be able to see everyone’s opinion this easily.
“I had to defend the rapist I knew was guilty, it’s my job,” is literally “I was just following orders.” Y’all are spineless and lack integrity. You can always refuse.

Tigers beat the Orioles and I drank a bunch of beer and sweat through my beater but only around my stomach.

My son and I both had salmon this morning. I made salmon cakes and I gave him Fancy Feast pate. Eating good.
