Another fun way to look at movies this #oscars season is via reading screenplays! This link has all of the screenplay nominees (except OBAA, which I don't think is online yet) and several more besides, both nominated for other awards and not. www.simplyscripts.com/oscar-screen...

Swap F1 in Best Picture for No Other Choice or It Was Just An Accident

Swap Kate Hudson or Emma Stone (probably the latter) in Best Actress for Chase Infiniti, Hailee Steinfeld, Amanda Seyfried or maybe even Jennifer Lawrence #oscars
If you’re gonna run around on the internet talking about Oscar snubs, you have to say who you’d swap out.

Those are the rules.

We live in a society (barely.)

One of these years, I'll get it together enough to try more shorts when they're shortlisted for the #oscars. A lot more of them are online before official nominations drop.

Having said that, a lot of them are still available! I'm watching a few today and I'll link them as I go.

Accidentally woke up in time for #oscars nominations, so I guess I'll do some live reacting here? The live announcement stream's starting in a couple minutes. www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZaLp...

Oh hey, this is relevant again.

I have so many thoughts about the Globes. Like, the fact that it didn't exist for a couple years because the voting body was accepting bribes. Or the fact that it's serious enough that major stars show up, but not so serious that said stars won't get intoxicated.
Predicting award show wins is a silly game that I like to play, so just fyi: the Golden Globes are just one of the precursor awards to the Oscars, and usually not the best predictor of nominees/winners. Guild awards are better (because you get more Oscar voters in them).

The column is about "Dave's" brand cigarettes, which had a made-up backstory about being hand-crafted by some made-up guy named Dave. Read this shit, this guy was spitting fire

One of my big highlights of 2025 was reading* the Murderbot Diaries. I was hoping I'd get the last of the released books from the library before the end of the year, and guess what just appeared from my holds!

(*well, listening to; I did the Kevin R. Free audiobooks and had a blast)

I just feel like some of y’all need to see my mom’s Star Trek tree. Many of these ornaments have been collected over decades, but the tree skirt she just made this year.

I don't normally talk about things like the Animal Farm trailer because of the way anything spreads when you give it engagement (I'm not reposting for that reason), but it's a good time to tell everyone to not give Angel Studios money.

This is the Sound of Freedom people, if it sounds familiar.

I saw this and nodded and moved along with my day.

And then Sara's child told me how much they enjoyed all the posts (I saw several of them) and revealed that Sara sent them something like 65 messages. I'm impressed, honestly.
i spent a full forty-five minutes this morning spamming my child with pictures related to their Special Interest over text message

One day, I'll stop being surprised that my favorite YouTubers (that aren't elder millennials) started off as Minecraft YouTubers. But that day isn't today.
wait this is actually really fun, I've been making video essays for half the time my channel has been up (before that, I was making Minecraft videos of course)

I'm sure I have a serious answer, but my funny answer is Death's Hand by @smreine.itch.io because there's a character in there based on me.
omg. Kat Abughazaleh just posted that if she's elected, she'll swear in on a copy of Octavia Butler's Parable of the Sower.

If you were elected to public office (never mind whether you'd ever actually run), what book would you swear in on?
