Bo Burnham is starting to look a little more like a prophet every day.

Come back Bo. We need you now more than ever.

Hi hello I know I've been gone for a while but anyways. Maybe I'm a little full of myself or maybe I'm just not as good as I think I am but tell me how I'm putting up 30-12 with 16k damage on Junker Queen and still hard stuck low silver. This doesn't make sense. Is this silver performance? Am I just bad? What is going on.

This post from Cinema Language on Instagtam (who is one of my favorite writers in the world of film criticism, incidentally) is pretty much the perfect summation of why I remain enthusiastic and hopeful about the future of movies.

There's always something to be excited about. You've just gotta look past the drivel.

As we get closer to the 2024 presidential election, just wanna remind everyone of Neck Deep's HEAVILY underrated song, Don't Wait.

Distrust and disobey the lies.

Some photos of the damage in western NC from hurricane Helene.

If you have family or friends in western NC, reach out and see if they're okay. If you can help with recovery, please do. People in that area have lost everything, and over 100 have been found dead already. Every little bit of aid helps.

Been eyeballing the fuck out of the Criterion edition of Throne Of Blood. Will pick up soon methinks.

To all my people out there currently in the path of, or being affected by the hurricane, stay safe! <3

The new Mortal Kombat 1 DLC is great and I really like the new characters and content and I especially like that they took the animalities, a feature generally known for being shite, and actually made them good, but it's hilarious to me that the 5 chapter story expansion is more cohesive and better told than the 15 chapter main story.

Emerald Fennell casting Jacob Elordi as Heathcliff in her Wuthering Heights adaptation is so wild bc like,,, I haven't read the book, but isn't Heathcliff supposed to be,,, not white? And isn't one of the major plot points the racism and abuse he faces from the family that adopted him? Like are we just,,, ignoring that? Emerald??? Explain yourself???

To people joking about the Diddy situation: please remember that this is very real and there are real people that have been victimized by that monster. I get it, 1000 bottles of baby oil is egregious, but let's not also forget the men and women who suffered at his hands for God only knows how long, yeah? Also friendly reminder that some of your favorite celebrities were *probably* involved in it, so it's probably a good idea to not be defending people who we know were at Diddy parties, yeah? Much love, have a nice night <3.

So we can all agree that Silver Springs is like, the prettiest breakup song ever right? Like it's between that, Lover, You Should've Come Over, and Slow Dancing In A Burning Room. How do you physically make something so pretty? This shouldn't be allowed.

Watching Challengers and I haven't finished it yet (I still have an hour left) but man oh man, it has fucking catapulted Josh O'Connor onto my radar. Dude came out of nowhere and is blowing me away with his talent. Will have more thoughts after I finish it.
