Is there an ethical way to get the answer without paying money to The MLM For YouTubers to sit through 2 hours of Ellis doing that exasperated millennial wine mom shtick?

A screenshot of a BlueSky post by Lindsay "Nostalgia Chick" Ellis, promoting her new Nebula video with the title "Yeah, But is Dolly Parton Really THAT Great?"

The answer is probably going to be "Yes, but with an asterisk," snugly buried inside hours of rhetorical packing peanuts and poorly lit cutaways to Ellis in Dolly drag smirking at the camera.

A more fitting outcome would be to leave both of them stranded on an island with nothing but a couple crates of Marlboro 100s and truck stop peptides

A YouTube thumbnail from the Apologia Comedia channel, titled “We’ve Never Wanted a Woman to Take Everything So Bad.” In the foreground of the image is recently divorced comedy podcaster Christina P holding a lit cigarette and baring her teeth in a strained Ninja Turtle grimace. Behind her are black-and-white images of her now ex-husband, extremely divorced comedy podcaster/trust fund baby Tom Segura.

The actual video is just dramaslop about their divorce and its implications for the Rogansphere. It’s not terribly interesting, and not even willing to reckon with P and Segura’s history of spewing hate and platforming fascist handmaidens like Andrew Tate.

In every festival lineup, you can always spot at least one instance of "A24/Netflix/Searchlight called in a favor"...

From the 2026 New York Film Festival list of Main Slate screenings, the Chris Rock directorial effort MISTY GREEN is conspicuously included despite 1) the very dire-looking trailer, and 2) Chris Rock's disappointing track record as a writer/director

If you think that's crazy, just wait until Tim Dillion realizes Tim Dillon is a fraud

Is it an old joke? Yes. Are you delighted by any opportunity to look at Willem Dafoe? Also yes.

Had the pleasure to see EL TREN FLUVIAL (The River Train) at this year's ND/NF, with Lucas Vignale and his co-director Lorenzo Ferro in conversation. Vignale was a clearly gifted artist with a fresh vision and a warm, humanistic sensibility. What a horrible loss.

I know the city is trying to reduce the rodent population, but surely there are more humane methods than subjecting them to Tribeca Festival screenings

A tweet by “Next Best Picture” podcaster Giovanni Lago, featuring a small rat or mouse standing along the edge of a carpeted screening room aisle. Lago states, “Shoutout to the friend I made today in the ‘press room’ waiting for a Tribeca screening to start.”

All day long I’d been cussing myself out because I couldn’t find any pictures of Tiana from all the shows we did, even our last one together in February 2020. Then I remembered I have this absolute classic banger
