The Age and SMH are not off the hook either #BadBunny

Look, I know there's about one billion more important things happening in the world right now. But seriously @australia.theguardian.com: was there not a single Latinx writer available to review the biggest Latin artist in the world's one Australian show?

@danbarrett.au SMILING FRIENDS IS ON AUSTRALIAN HBO MAX!! FINALLY!!!!!

Biggest reveal of the PEACEMAKER finale has to be the loads of casual viewers discovering not only who Foxy Shazam are, but that they’re kind of lame.

Being excited for a Taylor Swift album in 2025 is as embarrassing as being excited for any recent Star Wars movie.

if this shooter winds up being a red-pilled groyper the Kirk newscycle length will be mysteriously cut from two months to two days

If you think about it, his murder being completely forgotten about in less than a week because the shooter didn’t fit the political agenda that would allow Republicans to attack marginalized groups is the most fitting tribute imaginable for Charlie Kirk.

As someone who actually did a Film Studies class in the early 2010s, OVERCOMPENSATING severely underestimates how many film bros decided to base their entire personality at the time around The Dark Knight.

Is "Death Cap for Cutie" a thing?

I sorry, but nothing has ever screamed "serial killer behaviour" greater than willingly using Bing.

I forgot Tucker Carlson's name, so I just googled "Fox News guy who wants to fuck the M&Ms".

I'm thinking about how a lot of Andor complaints centre around how Emperor Palpatine would have NEVER let "so much ineptitude go unchecked", which feels like either people are overestimating Palpatine's management capabilities, or they're ignoring how he literally rebuilt the faulty Death Star.

There's "Idiot Plots" - plots that can only exist if everyone is stupid. But what do we call the opposite: plots that can only exist if everyone is UNREALISTICALLY smart and/or somehow knows everything ahead of time?

Fair play to Papa Francis: If I had to meet JD Vance I, too, would also just fucking die.

Had a "lovely" experience tonight, rewatching CABARET, and realising the USA and its allies (Australia included) are currently around the beginning of Act 2.

For those who know: the Elon speech/"gesture" is our generation's Tomorrow Belongs To Me.

As one of the people who couldn't make it to the end, I'm delighted to hear that Michael Stipe is a mensch and that the victims were able to get together.

BTW: Michael Stipe's reference is ultimately good. He offered his place in Atlanta as a refuge and a meeting place for Gaiman's victims.

Stipe could write American Gods, but Gaiman could never write Losing My Religion.

That's to say: Love how both Severance and The Substance tackle our modern desire the "separate" ourselves from the often-undesirable labour that's necessary to exist in our world.

I expect this theme to be run into the ground very soon, though.

So I've been talking about the Michael Stipe name-drop in the Neil Gaiman article with a few people, and a lot of people were confused about what I was going on about.

Then it hit me: the reference is in the last paragraph. The article is so grotesque they didn’t make it that far.

Severance and The Substance exist in the same universe, right? They have to.

Casual Viewing | Will Tavlin A decade before Airbnb persuaded homeowners to transform their homes into hotels, Netflix convinced its users to turn theirs into mini Netflix warehouses. Customers who held onto their DVDs for longer...

"...a common note from [Netflix] executives is “have this character announce what they’re doing so that viewers who have this program on in the background can follow along.”"

Netflix is actively ruining cinema.

“Further, the posts of Musk and Libs of TikTok betrayed a misunderstanding of the Wikipedia editing process.”

The fact that 2024 wasn't immediately cancelled and replaced with a re-run of a good year is proof that there is no God.

Or at the very least, God has shithouse taste.

"And with that, the 2024 season comes to an end" With all due respect, if 2024 was a "season" it'd have been cancelled by early July.
