In the 20 years since it’s win, Spirited Away remains the only non-Western film to have won Best Animated Feature at the Oscars

TELLING THE KIDS “DONT DO DRUGS” WONT DO ANYTHING. TELL THE KIDS TO SPEAK OUT ABOUT THEIR PAIN. THAT ITS OK TO SEEK HELP. THAT THEYRE STILL LOVED AND WORTH SOMETHING. ITS NOT FUCK DRUGS ITS FUCK DEPRESSION
Just saw an unfinished cut of TMNT: MUTANT MAYHEM and had soooooo much fun
Could watch these characters hang out for hours and hours. 2 ATCQ needle drops made me happy
I wrote this!
CHICKEN FOR LINDA! is simply one of the most inventive, charming and thoughtful animated features I’ve seen for a long time

My debut article for
@central_sauce
is out!!! I wrote about albums by Quelle Chris and Earl Sweatshirt and how they mirror the dense, complex nature of our existence as human beings. I think it’s good, you should read it
One of my favourite stories is from
@Mike_Eagle
’s Secret Skins. He said he drove from Chicago to LA listening to nothing but DOOM and They Might Be Giants, I believe. Idk why but that made it feel special whenever I spin DOOM’s music
After a years worth of writing and rewriting, here is my piece on
@yomilo
’s Who Told You To Think
I talk about the album’s celebration of boredom, and the way it intertwines that with discussion of the poet’s purpose:
First look at Donald Glover as 21 Savage in ‘AMERICAN DREAM: THE 21 SAVAGE STORY’
The film follows 21 Savage being detained by ICE & held for several weeks until the “Free 21 Savage” campaign led to his release.
Rich director hunting down struggling journalists who give their film bad reviews is a better concept for a movie with better class commentary than Saltburn
“Yes, of course, there are moments where I think, ‘Oh, I hope you die,’” Emerald Fennell told us about
#Saltburn
with a laugh. “‘Oh cool, you didn’t like it? Great. I hope you fucking die … and your whole family … slowly.'"
It is December 24th so I’m gonna spend the day listening to December 24th by Earl Sweatshirt on repeat while sitting on my bed staring at a wall good day

So I have an article in Rolling Stone(!!!) chatting about how Miyazaki refusing to show up and accept his Oscar exposed The Academy as a tool of American imperialism!
How about that
