Fucking great news. There comes a moment every Spring that I call the “Eye Know” day, when the only thing I want to do is cruise with the windows down and listen to that song. It’s the sound of blue skies. 

Burton is a polymath. He directs plenty of TV shows and has podcasts and acts and all kinds of other stuff. If he says this gig is what he wants, I’m cool with it because it is also what I want. 

Listen, I’m not one to defend the GOP, because fuck those assholes, but labeling redlining and housing discrimination as a GOP problem absolves more liberal areas when they emphatically do not deserve it.

How can Seth Meyers possibly drink that much and not die? It’s gotta be watered down right? 

I think it’s more akin to onanism, so perfect for Lokis.

When De Palma is considered more of a foundational influence on the medium, which is to say never. 

You are either A)lying to yourself B) sitting much too close to your TV or C) have a fuck-off enormous TV.

The human eye literally cannot tell the difference between 1080 and 4k at greater than eight feet away unless the screen is more than 75 inches. 

That’s just Tarantino’s opinion, man. Art is a conversation between creator and audience. 

As someone who did some questionable shit as a teenager that I’m not proud of today, seconded. 

You’re describing two sides of a homophobic coin. Yes, dudes shouldn’t care if someone thinks they’re gay because that’s ridiculous, but it’s equally problematic to suggest that men who are sensitive and close platonically with other men MUST be gay. It’s saying that being in touch with your emotions is the province…

I think the point Mackie was trying (and admittedly failing) to make is that the insistence that male characters must want to fuck each other if they are vulnerable, emotional, or caring towards one another is just a well-meaning but still pernicious form of homophobia that contributes to and reinforces toxic…

wut?

They will never stop. They’re saltier than the Dead Sea. 

Oh, my dude, how I envy you, because you get to watch Babe: Pig in the City for the first time. George Miller just produced the first one, but he sits in the director’s chair here. It’s practically a fifth Mad Max movie, and it fucking owns. 

I’m not Catholic, but I was raised Lutheran and my father is Jewish, so I know from both matzoh and communion wafers. Communion wafers melt in your mouth compared to matzoh, which have the mouthfeel of cardboard and dust. 

If there’s one thing I know about technology it’s that it stays expensive forever. 

It’s not a net positive because it’s transparently a pump and dump scheme and Musk has just materially harmed a lot of people.

Also, fuck him. 

Oh, no, something was influenced by a thing I like. I hate it. 

Eh, even if we grant the mindset that they have similarities, I don’t understand why a fan of Venture Bros. wouldn’t be stoked that something influenced by the show is also available.

I tend to like things that are reminiscent of the things I already like. I must not be a true fan or something. 

Nah, we’ve always been obnoxious.
