How disturbing is the rest of the episode that nobody else has quoted Holly saying "Like a Play-Doh Spaghetti Maker" yet

Love historical stuff like this, the last time a team didn't pass all day.

No pass attempts. Punting on third down. Cleveland had a point to prove.

There are very few scenes in movies which always hit for me, when Madeleine Lebeau sings La Marseillaise, it doesn't matter what kind of mood I am in, it always moves me to tears.

It is incredible to think they made this movie during the war.

someone needs to out-retro the others and start dressing like George Halas.

Sid Luckman had the single season touchdown record for the Bears until 1995.

Slight amendment, memoir is memoir for liars, autofiction is memoir for liars without lawyers

It's a cliché to refer to a certain type of football coach as a mad scientist. It’s a cliché I really like, and keep returning to, because I like the image of Clark Shaughnessy in a Swiss Castle cutting his reel to reels in perfect time to a thunderclap. ko-fi.com/post/1940-NF...

also if you DNF things you're weak.

last one sorry! I like reading negative reviews of things I like! Either I hear an interesting perspective, or I get pissed about something low stakes, which can be fun and productive!

i yelled at my least favorite friend like a decade ago because he said some novel was a work of art and i said that means nothing! you just told me this novel was a work of art, why didn't you tell me that this novel has pages with symbols on them which represent words.

Kit 💀💀Were-Wren💀💀 @kitwrenaway.bsky.social · 1d

also! something I think about a lot: the bad ones are art too, and maybe it's good that we're treating previously disposable subgenres with respect! "Work of art" is not a title that only the quality entries get, work of art is a type of endeavor, and endeavors can fail!
