Hot Buttered Cinema
Of course it isn’t funny—it’s maddening and pathetic. It won’t really be notable again though until he actually drops over on camera, at which point MAGA will valorize him for it, claiming it’s only the natural consequence of A Godlike Hero working 21 hours a day to save the entire world.

I avoid those served-at-your-seat venues like the plague! And to tell the truth I have a better-than-average experience w audiences at movies (good movies, anyway)—so yea, to my mind (some) theaters are as much to blame these days for our poorer “cinema culture” as anybody else.

It’s one thing to acknowledge the truth of times-that-are-changin’, but that Lawrence aside….just 🤮

Aside from the insane amount of time, the part that truly infuriates me is when they show the “put your phone away & be quiet now, here comes the movie” bit, and then POW, up comes *another* 15 minutes of commercials, trailers, so on.

It’s like they’re *training* people to ignore the request.

I take that as a warning that plans are already afoot to have AI-generated Rick & Ilsa cameo in the next season of Wednesday

I’d be inclined to agree—except have you sat through the AMC or Regal pre-show material recently? Lotsa levels of malice there. 🤯

We all agree* to stop making fun of his stupid sleepy old ass once he quits the job that keeps putting him to sleep.

(*No, we'll still be mocking him until he lays down for his dirt nap. Actually the insults will continue long after that, but just *tell* him we all promise to stop if he resigns.)

Doesn't even deserve the Rest in Peace Prize, but when he "wins" it, the entire planet will nevertheless break out in jubilation.

I mean it’s gratifying that Will finds Trump as loathsome as every normal thinking person should—but buried deep in his piece, he’s essentially ascribing the flourish of Trump’s evils to America’s failure to be hardcore little-government-conservative enough.

Positively surreal levels of shamelessness. I think I saw a recent post quoting Mike Johnson as saying Trump works 21 hours a day? F*cking mental.

When his entire party has control of the mechanisms that would hold him to account and/or remove him from office, and they fail to make use of them to do so -- that, more than the man himself, is the even greater danger.

Oh I'm sure he's just warming up. Next he'll probably "hereby proclaim" the entire Biden presidency as null and void because "rigged election" and that the country either owes him an additional four year term, or all history books must by law at least say he was elected three times.

"I wasn't involved in it."

Surest sign of all that:
1) It happened
2) It happened in the most illegal way possible
3) He knew 1 & 2 all along and was probably directly involved

Before too long this d*ckhead will be claiming the dictionary is a Communist plot to overthrow him

Any reporter worth their salt should be thrilled to lose access after asking the follow-up: “Mr. President, if a medication costs one dollar per pill and you have reduced that price by 500 percent, how much does the one pill cost then?”
