Very cool to talk to director @alicewu.bsky.social on the occasion of her SAVING FACE becoming a part of the Criterion Collection! Alice is feeling seen by two very different complicated women: Frances from FRANCES HA and Jane from BROADCAST NEWS. maximumfun.org/episodes/fee...

Meanwhile, #F1 felt like being in a loud nightclub AND a very long board meeting simultaneously. Did not like.

Sorry Baby is fantastic. Eva Victor doesn't miss a single note. Wow.

#VALKYRIES! Good god, who are they going to cut when the Eurobasket players return??? The vibes on this team are UNREAL. #wnba

Paige Bueckers is adorable, like if a Fanning played bball. #wnba

Thank you to @letterboxd.social for commemorating our 20th anniversary with a wonderful conversation with Adesola Thomas! So wild it's been 20 years when the actors still look exactly the same...

Funny thing is I hate Valentine's day... but I guess my movies don't? Huge thank you to @ezwrites.bsky.social and @nytimes.com for the #SavingFace callout! www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

Movies to Watch if You Love (or Hate) Valentine’s Day

Great movies to watch no matter how you feel about the holiday.

At this point, The Onion should just pivot to fact-checked hard news. @theonion.com

As someone who has reported on AI for 7 years and covered China tech as well, I think the biggest lesson to be drawn from DeepSeek is the huge cracks it illustrates with the current dominant paradigm of AI development. A long thread. 1/

The "he's not gonna listen to her" reactions are missing many points. Lots of other people are also hearing it. Lots of people can see him hearing it, then weigh what she's said with what he'll do. Lots of people can see her refusal to surrender these ancient teachings to the latest face of empire

Rev. Mariann Edgar Budde to Trump: "I ask you to have mercy upon the people in our country who are scared now. There are gay, lesbian, and transgender people in Democratic, Republican, and independent families, some who fear for their lives ... and the vast majority of immigrants are not criminals"

Biden has less than two months to accelerate and expand production of the bird flu vaccine for willing farm workers before RFK declares it’s poison.

The "duh" of it all is that health insurance should never have been a privatized, for-profit venture. Our health vs. CEO's pay is like bureaucratic Gladiator writ large.

Conclave is so good. Then again, I am all-in on a bunch of bitchy Catholics throwing down.

Yes! I asked if they could do this at the end of “The Half of It”, but they said there was no way to change their system. It always made me sad that most people who worked on the film would never see their name scroll past in the credits. #filmsky #netflix

Sarah O’Connell@sarahoconnellshow.com · 2y ago

Netflix - please stop minimising the end credits of movies to suggest something else. Let viewers enjoy the soundtrack and see the cast and crew that worked on the film. We'll exit it ourselves when ready to. #film #filmsky #movies #moviesky

I think about this a lot as I'm panicking in my shower.

Hahaha! I found out that was in my wiki during a meeting with a well-known actress who said, “I read in your Wikipedia that you lead a private life. I - too - lead a private life.” And I thought: “*That’s* what it says in my Wikipedia?” In truth, nothing all that interesting to report…

I thought that episode 5 of Interior Chinatown was really well done, so I went and looked up the director ( @alicewu.bsky.social ) and found what's probably my favorite wikipedia line ever:

This was a fun one! All eps now available on Hulu for your mind-bending, meta binging pleasure. Had the honor of directing ep 5. Got to witness humble genius Charlie Yu at work, plus a stable of killer cast and crew. As DP Mike Berlucci said in prep: “Let’s get weird…” #interiorchinatown
