tremendous journalism. this is what reporting is about. putting yourself in the line of it and getting answers. confronting loud belligerence with objective fact and a level head.

On top of all that it’s this weird attempt at a concept album where young Eminem is constantly rhyming about Caitlyn Jenner and Gen Z and “the PC Police” while modern Eminem acts like it’s the craziest shit anyone has ever said and it’s all just kind of a mess.

Back in 1989 in Japan, Kemco made a Famicom video game based on Roger Rabbit. They didn't have the rights to do that in North America, though, so, The Bugs Bunny Crazy Castle was born. Oh, and when it released on the Game Boy in Japan, it was a Mickey Mouse game there, instead. Let me explain.
It's new to me: The Bugs Bunny Crazy Castleretroxp.substack.com Now here's a series that merits an explanation.

Lemora is my favorite film - has been for some time now. Romantic and foreboding. Nothing I've seen has quite captured the dreamy isolation of rural queer self-discovery so well. Lucky enough to have two VHS copies and two vintage posters. Happy to see anyone talk about this one.

I love that Inspector Gadget (1999) and Dragonball Evolution (2009) both have this 'anachronistic old house against a changing landscape' bc it shares art directors and production designers

I happened to turn on the TV this morning just in time to see Fred and Ginger dancing to "Night and Day," and it hit me like a brick: Beauty and grace helped people get through the worst of the Depression and a war. Arts and culture are more valuable now than ever. 📷

Taking Ginger's bday to tell people to watch The Major and The Minor (1942, dir. Billy Wilder,) a film in which she pretends to be a twelve-year-old and seduces a grown military man. Yes, this is real. Yes, it's very funny. I promise.

If you’re listening to Taylor‘s coverage of any health issues, please reconsider. She wildly misrepresents studies to fit her own narratives (and is incredibly weird about it).
