People who watch videos without headphones in hospital waiting rooms should be euthanized when they see the doctor.

one thing you pretty consistently see is journalists defending coverage decisions by saying "that's old news, everyone knows it, no need to report it." another is journalists defending coverage decisions by saying "everyone is talking about this, we must cover it" convenient!

Today is the most humid day in Boston I can ever remember.

Seems like there should be a national conversation about whether the GOP should be nominating a convicted felon, an adjudicated rapist and a guy whose led his party into three electoral drubbings. But nope, press don’t want that.

Two weeks away from one of the worst days of my life and knowing that is FASCINATING.

I have no idea the best path re Biden but I do know a solid week straight of “Biden Old” and “Rich Dems Worried” above-the-fold stories are *obscene* in the face of SCOTUS using the Constitution to wipe their asses purely in the service of reinstating a felon rapist as president. Crazy-making shit.

Trump telling oil billionaires he would gladly accept a $1B bribe to be their puppet president: 1 day story Biden has lousy first half of debate: Top headline on 3rd day & counting

A corrupt, partisan Supreme Court declared the President is more powerful than the King we rebelled against, essentially ending American democracy, and yet this isn't the lead story anywhere just 24 hours later. The United States press is an enemy to the people of this country.

Not a line in all of A Song of Ice and Fire more heartbreaking than "Egg, I dreamed that I was old.”

Reviewing Kinds of Kindness posed an unusual problem for me, which I think made for an interesting piece. nerdist.com/article/kind...

KINDS OF KINDNESS Is a Weird, Captivating, and Frustrating Experiencenerdist.com Yorgos Lanthimos' Kinds of Kindness is a weird, captivating, and intentionally frustrating experience that doesn't care if you like it or not.

Top Gun: Maverick not pulling the trigger on the heartbreaking ending it so beautifully set up really prevented it from being a true all-timer. Still really good, but man it was all there for the taking. Instead keeping a potential third film alive won out.

Got some disappointing news yesterday, but rather than focus on that here's my review of Nope which I was especially proud of even though I should have given it another star* entirely. *That happens sometimes when embargoes lift right after you see it. nerdist.com/article/nope...

HOUSE OF THE DRAGON Reveals a Monumental Connection Between Starks and Targaryensnerdist.com House of the Dragon season two begins with a huge revelation about the secret of ice and fire that bonds House Stark and House Targaryen.

In fairness, there will be two main pieces from me on Sunday night. One where I shred the show for something I think is wholly indefensible, the other where I nerd out so hard you'll feel me shaking with excitement through your screen. Truly a (Seven Kingdom) land of contrasts....

For those of you who mostly follow me because of a specific franchise, I am going to be officially losing my mind out of anger, frustration, and disbelief on Sunday night/the rest of my life.

Early returns indicate I am clearly in the minority when it comes to how I feel about Inside Out 2. Full review coming to @nerdist.bsky.social tomorrow.

Uh, I do not like the upcoming new show. AT ALL.

There was a sequence during Furiosa where I had to fight the urge to stand up and cheer at the end.

One thing that would surprise Game of Thrones fans who aren't super deep into book lore and theories is that the Mad King was probably right about multiple mass conspiracies against him.

Today is the Game of Thrones series finale's five year anniversary. But I've had major issues for much longer.

Just wrote something incredibly earnest and personal about a very uncool place. Definitely looking forward to all the responses from very nice strangers who call me a loser.

forgot how to write. nothing can be done about it doctors call it "idiot disease"

patriot front is marching unopposed in West Virginia right now no police in sight. People really need to be asking why neo-Nazis are allowed to march with impunity while peaceful students protesting against genocide are being beaten, mercilessly and treated like a invading army.

Obviously nothing but respect and solidarity for people protesting on these campuses, but I'm surprised at the disgust I feel not just for the politicians cashing in some consequence-free state violence credits but the Speech Warriors cheering it on. They want to make the whole country their HOA.

Today is the five-year anniversary of I Think You Should Leave's premiere on Netflix, which means today is also the perfect day to listen to the Laser Focus podcast episode when @kyledanderson.bsky.social and I discussed the show's best sketches. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/b...

A lot of accusations are flying about people wanting their politics in the movie, but I would've settled for something -- anything -- about how journalism works even within the context of the film. It abstracts all you're talking to the point where they seem like individual Jedi, basically.
