The New York Times reported today that over the past 70 years nearly 2,000 minors were abused in Illinois by the Catholic Church. None of the abusers were drag queens.

Yeah, I don’t get it. HBO Max had a rough launch, but it’s been the streamer that we’ve watched the most consistently in our house over the past few years. Seriously: Succession, Barry, Hacks, The Righteous Gemstones, The Last of Us, Starstruck, The Flight Attendant, Mare of Easttown, Starstruck, The Tourist, Perry

this is kind of a bootlicker take. HBO Max didn’t have an easy start but eventually offered more quality content than nearly any other streaming platform.

Slurp my Chipotle Diarrhea you waste of oxygen.

My main question is where they were going within NYC that they were being chased for TWO hours. Traffic is bad, but it’s not that bad.

I felt this way about Pan’s Labyrinth. Gorgeously shot, dark as HELL, even more viscerally violent than I was expecting. Glad I saw it, never again.

Seriously, fuck Mamet, and fuck anyone who would want to work with this deranged asshole at this point. He’s like the play/movie writer version of Frank Miller for comic books. Their early work was lauded as a cutting deconstruction of toxic masculinity, fascism and homophobia, then their later works show that, wait,

That was so beautiful.  Thank you for sharing.  I love how, when you needed her most, she stepped up.  Too many parents don’t.  Bless you always.

This is such a beautiful post!! Christina and I have been together for more than 12 years, and she has long expressed anxiousness about the idea of publicly sharing certain details about her past. I’m so glad that she has finally chosen to share—with such coregiousness and wit—how her mother’s support and acceptance he

Given her background, I assume that she’ll be there to mend fences with advertisers, and to rebuild the communications department. Replying to all inquiries with a poop emoji can only last for so long.

I had the priviledge of working for Debbie Reynolds at her Las Vegas hotel.

Is the arc de triumphe one not qualifying for some reason? That one was amazing. 

If I were in charge there would be some shuffling on this list (everyone is entitled to their own opinion of course), but I would keep the top two right where they are.

Hugh Grant has never really been an upstanding guy over his history - it’s just that the times have changed and he hasn’t.

Thiel is such a fucking weirdo. It’s enraging that he is able to have ANY influence in politics.

I love JLC but Stephanie Hsu is the better ‘supporting actress’ in EEAAO.

Also kinda bummed that Angela Bassett lost out. Sure she “only had one decent scene” but Judy Dench won for ten minutes of screen time in Shakespeare in Love (and being screwed over the year before in Mrs Brown).
