It’s disgusting that where we need resources to aid our own country’s suffering, we cut them off while spending more money on The White House lawn. This administration are sociopaths. apple.news/ADWbtzI6eQSi...

Between not being able to maintain a pool and measles out of control, feels like this government is the last group we should trust with any sort of health care.
FactPost@factpostnews.bsky.social · yesterdayActing AG Todd Blanche plans to outlaw abortion nationwide: We're working to get solutions so that the Dobbs decision becomes permanent in every single state. We're putting policies in place so that states can't do things like mail abortion drugs. We will have victory, and it will be permanent.

One of my most prized possessions. My old man - who worked for the Chicago White Sox - was able to get his pals at WFLD to surprise me on my tenth bday with this signed @svengoolieofficial.bsky.social photo AND a mention on air. This weekend I turn 53 and still a life long die hard of Sven!
@doctorow.pluralistic.net is on @laist.com right now laying out in very plain and entertaining terms where we are at with AI. Highly recommend you tune in. Hopefully they’ll make it available for a repeat listen somewhere.

Total bullshit. @vulture.com cough up the money. Freelancers can’t wait 60 days to get paid.
Jason Bailey@jasondashbailey.com · 5d agoWell, it’s invoicing day, and since they’re really apparently not going to pay me for something I wrote for them two months ago, I guess today is the day to post about how @vulture.com fucks over its film freelancers. Long (sorry) thread, with receipts:
If I won the lottery I would hire an interior designer and just say “Columbo murderer” while waving my hand around my home office.
This is produced like a high school TV 101 class. But worse.
Make It Make Sense@themimsshow.bsky.social · last wk.Is Abdul El-Sayed actually a capitalist?
The day after their Oscar win, I saw Glen and Markéta eating Great Kahn’s Mongolian BBQ at the Beverly Center Food Court. That felt fitting as he seemed like a very down to earth dude who just focused on his music. Sorry to hear of his tragic end.

5000 views and 200 likes achieved 🥹 I'm so happy I got a following of Silent Hill Homecoming enjoyers after years of getting unprompted, backhanded comments about the game.
Rumin InLove@rumininlove.bsky.social · 9mo agoNever gonna stop pushing this vid, I ain't giving up hope on 5,000 views and 200 likes. Vids dogging on Silent Hill Homecoming get released every year to thousands of views, would be nice if a positive vid caught up to all those negative ones. Damn you, algorithm!
Excellent read about Chicago film history.
Scott Tobias@scotttobias.bsky.social · last wk.I've been a critic in Chicago for almost exactly 27 years, and the screening room at the top of 70 E. Lake St. has so many memories for me. Good piece from Richard Roeper, and I love that he talked to the projectionist, Steve Kraus. Great guy, great at his job: www.rogerebert.com/features/a-h...
Made me think - this film could have made a killer Happy Meal.
