"agents initially claimed [the victim] purposefully ran headfirst into a brick wall"
I used to take calls for Child Protective Services. We would call this "Injuries Inconsistent with Explanation." It meant we were dealing with a violent, abusive liar.

This is true and I was the only one on set excited about it (and playing the song on my phone to blank stares)
Just watched the new Knives Out and I think it's really important you know that the scene in the Seminary's Gym is filmed in the same place Rick Astley filmed the music video for Never Gonna Give You Up.
I saw the window tracery and immediately made my friends pause the film so I could tell them.

I was thinking about how some professions have relatively equal income distribution and some very much do not. Like, the highest paid fast food worker doesn't make a whole lot more than those at minimum wage. But with plumbers the top 10% make about double the bottom 10%

Y'all--this is far and away my favorite film from Fantastic Fest 2025. I love it for so many reasons, not least being it's like a master class on how to make a great movie with a minimal amount of money.

What was your first car?
Mine was a 1974 Ford Maverick that I got for $500 in 1983 or 84. It was not quite this color, but a weird bronzer-orange I can’t find a good pic of.
Post your first cars—I wanna see them!
