They know they'll never have to raise the minimum wage again so long as they can keep their constituents' focus on transphobic bullshit.

@conrad-esq.bsky.social, @coldcrashpics.bsky.social and I checked out the first two episodes of CRYSTAL LAKE (debuting next week on Peacock) and it's a mixed bag (think BATES MOTEL messy). Cardellini is great, though!

There's a very fair appraisal of its unique strengths and weaknesses on this week's episode of @movieoubliette.bsky.social. I'm thinking I'm probably gonna pick up the book that it's based on now that I've heard @conrad-esq.bsky.social speak so highly of it.

"Odd Thomas" has a lot of interesting ideas and a great cast but it's got a bizarre tone that didn't work for me and a pace that makes it feel more like a pilot for a TV show. It's a special nightmare of mine because none of these issues would've been apparent before the film was already finished.

I didn't think this show was for me but I *have* been plowing thru the Friday the 13th series ever since I got back from TIFF so take from that what you will.

On the *same day* the Cornell Seven drugged and raped Jane Doe, Cornell banned four students (including the President of Cornell JVP) from campus for three years for nonviolent, pro-Palestine protests. The same Cornell officials let the rapists off with apology essays.

the "iced coffee at a job interview" discussion is obviously stupid but also a great representation of the fact that every single HR person/recruiter has their own different made up rules for candidates and all of them think they are absolutely correct

Incredible. First Secretary Mullin claimed that DHS had identified 15,903 noncitizens on Nevada’s voter roll. Then DHS officials told a skeptical Nevada, no no no, that’s just people we flagged. Here are the names of 185 people we KNOW aren’t citizens. All 185 were citizens. DHS got 100% wrong.

When the Department of Homeland Security sent Nevada a list of 185 names last month that it claimed identified noncitizens who had been improperly allowed to register to vote, state election officials got to work.
On Tuesday, the state sent a strongly worded rebuke to the federal government: Every single person on the list was a lawful citizen.
"As for the 185 individuals, our records indicate that they were citizens," Greg D. Ott, a deputy attorney general in Nevada, wrote, according to a copy of a letter sent to Department of Homeland Security officials obtained through open records requests.
"You have provided nothing of substance to suggest otherwise."

Following the meeting, Ms. Vogt sent a clarifying email to Nevada officials. "I also wanted to be sure I clarified that we did not reduce the 15,903 to 185," she wrote. "We've manually reviewed some of the 15,903 and confirmed 185 are not U.S. Citizens."
Now, Nevada officials are saying even that 185 number is wrong. They also took issue with a letter D.H.S. sent them in early September, in which the agency reiterated its initial claims about nearly 16,000 noncitizens on the rolls and pressured state officials to review each case in a letter to Nevada officials in early September.

A world where a twist ending is repurposed as a video title. where a thing's climax has been removed, leaving an advertisment for the gap where it used to be. such things are commonplace in. the twilight zone

The hosts of @movieoubliette.bsky.social are split on the final verdict, but I agree with BOTH of their takes: it's built from a lot of limp references to better films but it's also *having a lot of fun* referencing them all. So, should it be forgotten or remembered? My answer is—yes.

I wish I liked Event Horizon more than I do. It's a bold swing, with a standout production-design, and it's clearly having a lot of good, pulpy fun with the horror-bits, but the plot is just a little too unfocused for me to dial in, and the characters are basically interchangeable.
