β€˜A very dangerous person’: alarm as Pete Hegseth revels in carnage of Iran war Critics say brash, bombastic Fox News host out of his depth to guide US military through murky new Middle East conflict

β€œI wish I could say how cavalier, obtuse and hopeless Secretary Hegseth is at leading the Pentagon. I can’t even muster the words to describe his self-adulation, matched only in scope by his apparent moral depravity.”

Something I really love about Rey in the Sequel Trilogy is that, having grown up on Jakku, she's always getting a kick out of and appreciating the beauty of the different planets, biomes, and cultures she encounters during her travels.

Maggie Gyllenhaal clearly has a LOT on her mind. While the boldly feminist message she's driving is crystal clear, there's so much else going on it feels like the plane she's flying is about to break apart at any moment. Ultimately I think she lands the plane with a more emotionally grounded ending.

Yes, it's a Frankenstein story, but The Bride! is an unabashedly campy genre mash-up, from Gothic romance to crime thriller to black comedy - think Bonnie & Clyde meets Joker meets Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf? Did I mention there's also a full-on Thriller-style dance sequence? 'Cause there is. πŸ˜…

The Bride! is such a wild, ambitious, chaotic experience that I feel a second viewing is mandatory before I draw any conclusions as to whether or not it "works" for me as a film.

Jessie Buckley and Christian Bale are excellent, though - deliriously committed to the ride. I was always entertained.

We owe a debt to the people of Minnesota. Their brave and determined resistance and refusal to be cowed in the face of terror and persecution, even as they endured unimaginable sacrifices, is what got Kristi Noem canned. They stood together, and she utterly humiliated herself. They broke her.

Good riddance, Kristi Noem

The people of Minnesota got Kristi Noem fired.

Let me be clear: I’m glad Kristi Noem was fired. But we still have to abolish ICE.

Ding Dong, ICE Barbie’s reign of terror and incompetence is dead!

(I doubt Markwayne Mullen’s tenure will be any better so long as Naziferatu Stephen Miller is driving policy. But let’s take our wins when they come. Noem’s utter failure to defend her actions shows public accountability still works)

kind of crazy that if you have enough money and don't like what you see in the media, you can just buy up every film studio, news station, and social media app and change it

Amazing how truth can actually leak from a Republican Senator's lips once he's no longer running for reelection. But only then.

Jessie Buckley has won the Golden Globe, BAFTA, Critics Choice, and Actor Award for her performance in β€˜HAMNET’.

Only award left is the Oscar.

I still think One Battle After Another is the favorite to win Best Picture because the PGA+DGA combo is pretty damn formidable. But with Sinners winning the SAG Ensemble prize and clear widespread support with its record 16 nominations, the door to a Parasite-over-1917 style upset remains open.

They went to war with Iran (which nobody in America was asking for) so they could conjure an excuse to allow ICE to keep murdering Americans and teargassing schools here at home with impunity (which nobody in America was asking for).

Paramount should enjoy its growing news monopoly while they have it because when Democrats win back power we are going to break up these anti-democratic information conglomerates. All of them.

just for shits and giggles the next 24 hours, take a look at media coverage of the Paramount/Warner/Netflix triangle and see how many outlets clearly acknowledge Trump corruption and influence played any role in the outcome

or how many acknowledge Ellison's goal is autocrat-friendly agitprop
