For us movie-loving Gen X kids, Drew Struzan’s art was always a promise of some amazing and cool adventures, coming soon to a multiplex near us. He was one of the folks who helped define the 80s and 90s blockbuster. RIP, sir.

As recently as last week, I was writing about the brilliance and impact of the art of Drew Struzan. Today, we learn he's passed. I'm gutted.

His artistic genius and inspirational images will truly be appreciated forever. May we continue to treasure his work & the man who made it. Thank you, Drew.

Love this — I would always get all 🥹 when my son used to get “a pleasure to have in class” on his report cards.

REMEMBER: if anyone starts trying to do a violence or whip up the crowd to do a violence. Zip tie them and hand them over to the police.

So the feds get their boys back unharmed.

tbf that Muncy DP was literally a generational play and the rest of the time it’s an RBI sac fly at minimum.

Maybe 10 pitches less and Roberts would’ve been tempted, haha.

I vaguely remember the concept of riding strong starting pitching deep into postseason games.

Why face the scorn when you’re unsuccessful against the league’s best pitching when you can just sit back and chill on your couch with a beer?

I’m going to dodge the broader JKR discussion but I re-read TDiR a few years ago and Susan Cooper’s writing is just wonderful, head and shoulders above the much more famous HP author.

Loved the Prydain Chronicles! Also The Dark is Rising, the Belgariad, the Wrinkle in Time saga — lots of fun and well-written YA fantasy back then.

One final note in case you get all the way down here: it's worth noting that Rotten Tomatoes is owned by Fandango, which in turn is partly owned by Warner Bros Discovery, or whatever that company is called today, and partly owned by Versant, which is a spinoff of Comcast NBCUniversal. 30 Rock stuff

everybody has at least one impression they like to do that's so transcendentally bad it inspires revulsion in everyone around them. yesterday i learned mine is charli xcx

Great thread. I lived in Portland for several years back in the 90s, and every bit of what she says rings true. (Not that she needs me to validate it, she has vastly more experience than I!)

What The Hell Is Going On, a thread:

I’ve seen some thinkpieces and posts about Portland protests that fail to understand the long-term hyperspecificity of Portland culture/humor, and frame it as a sort of shitposting meme-pilled ironic thing. Which is wrong.

So I’m gonna give you my breakdown.
