When I saw this show a few weeks back, I searched for which old REM song they were using.

It's not. It's new. But it feels like sophomore year in college to me. And for that, I'm grateful to Michael Stipe and Andrew Watt.

THREAD: I got laid off from NYMag/Vulture after 14 years. The family lost 75% of income + medical. Now mzs.press bookstore, once a side project. is do-or-die for Judith & I. I feel weird telling you this because others are doing much worse. But if you could like or share this, we'd be so grateful!

The Best Comedy of the Year Is a Documentary About Death In ‘André Is an Idiot,’ a man’s dying wish is to get roasted. Mercilessly.

The most I've laughed during a movie this year.

It's about a real-life dying dude.

So cool that we got to help Chris announce his next Star Wars book! The entire interview is REALLY good and if you like comparing Star Wars politics to real life you will really dig their conversation (watch/listen here: youtu.be/nNTLYZiGf54?... )

Honored and moved by this lovely, lengthy tribute. Thank you, Chaz, and all the wonderful folks @ebertvoices.bsky.social. No big drama or scandal here, I'm just choosing to use my time differently. But I'm so proud of my years with Team Ebert. Roger changed my life, and I'm eternally grateful.

There is a lot in this book about robber barons siphoning away prosperity, leaving crumbs and decay for everyone else.

Sounds familiar. This passage could be written about today’s tech ghouls.

I wrote “Movies Aren’t Too Long, They Just Don’t Know When to End” in 2021, but it was internet erased. I found it and rewrote it a bit because it’s only become worse since then. (See: THE RIP.) Movies have always been long! They just *feel* longer now!

Walton would be fantastic. Also a good friend of Duvall, so there’s a heritage there with King’s own suggestion.
