Someone needs to update the Divine Comedy and invent creative punishments for us to enjoy. Although Weinstein being bedridden 23.5 hours a day & alone except for a 15 minute phone call every 3 hours to yell at people & an orderly has no idea who he is… that’s pretty good
the other day i read "I'm giving up atheism. there's gotta be a hell for some of you people" and have adopted it as my new stance on religion
this is Bill Gates's playbook too. all that charity money, like you're gonna submit a P&L to St Peter at the gates
'I should get my rape charges commuted bc I used mob boss techniques to produce aggressively mid Oscar bait' LMAO thank you for your generous donation to high culture, now go rot 📽️
this was hilarious. he's suffering & scared & such a crybaby. "it's incredible to have the life I that I had & the things that I did for society & not have the leniency to deal with me in a kinder way" 😂 I wish we got to see them all suffer like this but take the wins where you get 'em 📽️
I went from 10 unread emails to 85 and they just keep coming... 😭 If you need me, I'll be hiding under my desk watching movies on my iPad
Watching the weather on @ryanhallyall-xpost.bsky.social - these weather livestream channels are like the dream of the future internet in old scifi novels. This is what we imagined we would do with all this technology

That clip of Timothee Chalamet being like “no one watches the opera or ballet” is wild and I am dying over every ballet and opera acct (correctly) being like “we’ve been here for hundreds of years before you and we’ll be here for hundreds of years after you” lmao
Kristi Noem on her first day as Special Envoy for the Shield of the Americas
“ “ “You miss 100% of the dogs you don’t shoot.” -George Orwell” -Rudyard Kipling” -Wayne Gretzky” -Michael Scott
If you're at the airport and Kristi Noem is doing the ominous little message from the TSA screens, you no longer have to do anything she says. Leave your laptop in the case, whatever.
This is the closest you’ll ever see me to reverential about a filmmaker. Most important living director & a model for humanity, Jafar Panahi 📽️ (an Iranian cinema series is coming soon to movie club & Panahi will be heavily featured 😉 )

Oh you know I have THOUGHTS lol
they make these lists to generate discussion and this is my contribution to the discussion! i'll make some nicer lists next 😇
feelin snarky today, so here are my bottom Top 500 Letterboxd movies. either I refuse to see them or wish I hadn't bothered 📽️

😂🤓 this is me fighting the film bros (and The Raid didn’t make the list! Embarrassing)
41%... honestly, not bad considering I'm such a stubborn contrarian when it comes to the online film bro "top films" discourse. I'll watch the Godfather when all y'all watch Jeanne Dielman 📽️ #letterboxdtop500 @letterboxd.social

Watching these congresspeople of color make the people’s case against the Epstein class and cheering 🙌 more more more!
Bondi sounds like she needs a lorazepam 🤣
using rude initials at work, like
follow-up = FU
pick-up = PU
back-order = BO
these are the little things that get me through the day
Twin Cinema Movie Club bonus feature:
Bela Tarr's DAMNATION (1988) 5pm Saturday at the Cleveland Cinematheque! 📽️

Humans have existed for 300,000 years and we got to be alive at the same time as Catherine O'Hara 📽️ 👸
What’s the opposite of seated? When something should be for me but I could not be less seated? I’m standing at the exit, I’m running away from the theater #wutheringheights #beatlesquadrilogy 📽️
Art is politics. When our culture is in a crisis, engaging with art deeply and critically is not a distraction or escapism. It’s essential to understanding where we are and how we got here. We can’t deprogram ourselves from ideology unless we can identify it, and it is embedded in our art. 📽️
😂 uh oh did you find out the hard way
I will check these out!
Ooooh I am interested in the vacuum bags. I 💙💙💙 freezing things 🤓
