I offer a challenge to the Horror score composers of the world: stop doing bad ripoffs of the Exorcist score

Little known fact is that baseball is better actually when the white sox are winning. I googled it it’s true

as a young teen, one of the first times in my life I was certain that I was looking at a drunk man was during a jose x 4 chant at sox park

i'm a little confused by it tbh. i'm not a big fan, but i don't think he's pernicious or anything

this is where it's heading for me too. i haven't even read the reviews, but a tomato score around 50 is kind of an awesome place for this one to be

Personally I see it as an enterprise too over-leveraged to destroy shit in the ways people fear; and one that, in an even slightly less favorable political climate, is primed to break itself up into more manageable pieces, for some financial relief

i really struggle to even believe the levels of lost-the-plot derangement on display in Illinois senate race ads that beg the viewer to know and care about who Hasan Piker is

cannot be overstated how badly the sky fucked up. i try not to be a jilted fan about my teams, but this one is going to be hard to ever forgive

At the bar to watch the Sox, and no one’s even looking at the screen. We’re all talking copilot, grok, and Claude. That’s what the people are into these days

used to write a lot about the looming possibility of a young big $ NBA player turning down a big extension, taking the qualifying offer, and effectively breaking a big part of the league's talent control structure. i stopped writing about it because it seemed like no one was ever going to do it

i don't think i really had feelings about billy bob thornton before but the Landman/T-Mobil ad combo has quickly placed him in the get the fuck out of my face category

pretty happy with the information/news walls i've built up over the last year. i'm still over-informed, but much more often have the pleasant sensation of not knowing what the hell anyone is talking about

tom cruise has been a boring franchise-slop actor for twenty years, garnering broad cult praise from a broken nation for leaning too far into a midlife crisis that became a deep-life crisis. his new movie, an attempt to over-correct this long derailment, will only highlight it further

i know that managing sports-watching during the streaming era can be annoying and expensive, but people act like it was so easy to know what channel games were on in the past, and that simply wasn't the case. there was confusion then as well; and, even more so, just not that many games to watch

teams play zero preseason minutes at full football speed, so the NFL doesn't really start getting competent until week 5 now. but the average fan isn't discerning enough to care about the lag in quality, so hey, it goes on
