oh get fu©ked. Hamas’ anti LGBTQ+ stance is not, or ever will be, an excuse for the genocide of an innocent population. And you’re trying to use it as a justification by bringing it up here.

Oof, I misread what the act was about, almost said something stupid. (Initially thought that he vetoed the disclosure requirement, not repealing that requirement.)

He’s got nothing to worry about. I’ve been assured by many people here that it’s not stock manipulation because “he’s just a dude who talks about stocks.” How could that be wrong?

Biopics are definitely a toss up in quality, it's why I tend to avoid them.

It doesn’t even seem like a trend; fluff documentaries have been around since...documentaries. Behind the Music was rarely revelatory so much as a quick-bite collection of known facts signed off upon by the (surviving) band members.

Aren’t these crypto bros just some form of libertarian who end up voting GOP anyways?

I’m looking forward to seeing the Henson documentary, but for Henson fans, the multi-part deep dive into Henson’s entire career that Defunctland did a few years ago is absolutely extraordinary and a must-watch.

This is pretty much the trend, right? Not just on pure documentaries or direct to streaming. Things like Bohemian Rhapsody and Rocketman suffered from the same problems. The people who are still alive get involved and make sure they aren’t serious looks at somebody’s life, but hagiographies or puff pieces.

There are plenty of documentaries, and one fine semi-autobiographical film, that detail the darker side of the Beach Boys and Brian Wilson’s story.

I would definitely agree with this.

Except the economic motivations of those hiring nepo children isn’t to fill a role that sells a lot of tickets, it’s to create a generational talent with access to the same network of contacts and producers that the parent had. Lily Rose-Depp, Scott Eastwood, Zosia Mamet. These aren’t actors getting jobs because…

I thought Once Upon a Time in Hollywood purposefully cast a bunch of nepo babies for the Manson family? Kevin Smith’s daughter, Andie Macdowell’s daughter... thought there were others too?

Em’s been trying to offend people and then complaining about people trying to silence him for his entire career, especially in his Slim Shady persona which this is explicitly a return to / culmination of. Actually being shocked by any of it is just playing into his hands.

Ha, that headline came to mind for me as well. What’s funny is that he doesn’t even really say anything outrageous in the song in the first place. Like, what’s of note here: a couple of hacky trans jokes that felt like light jabs at worst, the usual tired celebrity references, and... a participation trophy reference…

Going back to my youth, the Onion had a story that stuck with me headlined

I like the video for the most part, but somebody in his inner circle, PLEASE stop him from going back to these terrible punchlines. The interpolation choruses too. The whole throwback angle doesn’t work when he keeps going back to the well that made him fall off in the first place.

Eminem has been shit for way longer than he has been great. He had a stellar run of albums in the late 90s and early 2000s. And now he continues to dump on his legacy with every new release. This has nothing to do with his politics, it’s just obvious that he’s tired and has nothing to say anymore.

Season 9 was a hallucinatory fever dream. 

The name of the person you aren’t recalling is O. Machu Pichu.

I really liked the post-Larry seasons of Seinfeld(never seen Curb).
