As a HS music teacher I’m legit bummed I haven’t heard any students bring it up

Meanwhile DR. SLEEP was a sequel to THE SHINING that just used different actors and the film worked great because, well, acting, directing, editing, story, etc. worked great. Using AI? Not so much

I saw NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET as well at 8; and BLADE RUNNER @5! Dad told me BLADE RUNNER was about “Han Solo tracking evil robots. And also flying cars” and holy crap was 5 year old me confused AF during that movie 😆

I saw BEVERLY HILLS COP in theaters at 8, and I was a rock star in elementary school being able to quote the movie; I’d go to the bathroom and it with friends to quote the swear word lines so we wouldn’t get busted (in catholic school) 😆 🤣

A terrific AFP fact check uses reverse image searches to expose how a White House video took scenes from Florida, Texas, South Carolina and Nebraska and lied that they showed "Chicago is in chaos."

Post from WH about Chicago "in chaos," showing scene from another state.

Weird thing to say just 8 months from hosting the FIFA World freaking Cup. You know, THE biggest sporting event in the world?! 🙄

I was in HS band in central OH and we played several Bush Sr. rallies for 92 election and I hated it all (except I did meet Schwarzenegger at one when he mingled with us). I went to a Clinton rally for penance & shook his hand and I never didn’t vote Blue since my first election in 96

The GOP that gave us the Jan 6 terrorist attack and then pardoned the terrorists is calling the No Kings rally a pro-terrorist rally. These are despicable people.
