BELA GOES BANANAS! SEPTEMBER 8! Movies Are Dumb presents an all-new movie riff on the 1943 Bela Lugosi flick: THE APE MAN! Premiering in The Dumb Clubhouse 9/8! WANNA TRY TO WIN A FREE DOWNLOAD? Just "like" and reply below! We'll choose a winner at random on Monday! Good luck!
illustration by Carmen Cerra of Bela Lugosi in the 1943 movie THE APE MAN, looking rather ape-ish in a suit and top hat that resembles Abraham Lincoln, and he's surrounded by apes from Planet of the Apes. the entire poster looks like a retro comic book and it says FROM THE PRODUCERS OF THE MADS ARE BACK | CHRIS GERSBECK, EMMY MARTIAN & MATT REISER | MOVIES ARE DUMB: THE APE MAN

With further text:

I didn’t come anywhere near this when I was on the Roosevelt (‘87-‘90) - I think we hit like 85 straight days at sea. But even that was miserable. This is an abuse of the force and will have long term repercussions

Right now, everyone faces a hard binary choice between authoritarianism and democracy. If you don’t think it’s a binary choice and that because of your issue or issues that both sides are the same, then you’re part of the problem.

This satellite view of the smoke plume (from today) is insane. Look how far it stretches across the Atlantic.
Satellite view of eastern North America showing a large wildfire smoke plume and hazy air mass drifting across the, Midwest and mid-Atlantic United States, extending well across the Atlantic Ocean. Land features including the Great Lakes, Florida, and the East Coast are visible beneath varying cloud cover.
