I do appreciate a review that just so thoroughly eviscerates a bad movie like this one does.

"If this is what it takes to get a rom-com greenlit these days, maybe we should just let them die. Death with dignity is surely a better fate for the genre than fascist capitulation." Zero stars for this piece of shit movie. My review of ONE NIGHT ONLY for @ebertvoices.bsky.social

god brooklyn vegan was such an institution, what a loss.

“Music publications BrooklynVegan, Alternative Press, Revolver, and Goldmine have been gutted by parent company Veeps... Nearly all the staff at each publication appear to have been laid off yesterday. Veeps, which is now owned by Live Nation, acquired the publications in 2024 or 2025”

I'd like to thank @shutdownfullcast.bsky.social for somehow knowing I'm going to be in a car driving around Cape Cod and the greater Boston area next week and dropping an abundance of podcasts to help pass the same.

This is playing at the Sidewalk Film Festival in Birmingham, Alabama - sidewalkfest.com/festival/ - and I highly recommend checking it out.

Getting real sick of slop midwives pleading for a 'respectful discussion' of AI as relates to the arts. Your use of AI to 'make art' is not respectful. It benefits from stolen art, destroys the planet, and does not make you an artist any more than someone driving 26.2 miles is a marathoner.

Even in death, we still have to deal with bullshit Hulk Hogan lies.

Every discussion about Linda McMahon should start with the fact that she is credibly accused of sex trafficking minors and covering up child rape for decades

Carl T. Bergstrom@carlbergstrom.com · 2d ago

Pro-wrestling executive Linda McMahon issued a letter today (in her role as US Secretary of Education) demanding that universities justify their existence and explain policies to the Trump administration by the end of 2026. Not sure what the endgame is, but it sure feels like a trap.

his book about going to every SEC stadium reveals that he is a die hard Counting Crows fan and also he worked very, very hard to never have to actually practice law.

I still cringe at baby me buying his first book and the one on Tennessee football (this is before the heel turn to RW grifter). I dropped one in the charity bin; the other I lent to a cousin who's a Vols fan and have since told them they can keep it.

Which film do you think perfectly captures the 1990s? Probably Mall Rats, but that's a boring answer, so here's a Christmas one instead (technically another Christmas one, since I'm quoting a Christmas movie).

People think "Hollywood" is rich and famous. The reality? Film and TV is a national industry. It's a blue collar industry. And it is an industry free fall. My latest for @newrepublic.com on how the Paramount merger would crush blue collar workers who can not afford it newrepublic.com/article/2136...
