Boy! It'd be nice to not have to talk about him if people with three-quarters of a million subscribers didn't make videos about the guy that also briefly touch upon misrepresenting experiences I had personally! That'd sure be fuckin' nice! But, guess it's easier to tell US to shut up than them, huh?
OH HO HO Oneyplays said Doug is cool so now everyone is suddenly fine with him. Nah fuck off with that shit. Doug and Rob are garbage people
It bugs the fuck outta me there's this new wave of people who think Doug, Rob and his company are cool when it was proven ages ago through the Change the Channel document the Walker Brothers are massive assholes. I dealt with Doug's shit behavior at a con ages ago so I can back it up with how he is
Another notable thing: it’s looking like this will be the first year in 13 years Marvel doesn’t have a movie in the top 10. Superman meanwhile, with a wildly different take and tone on superhero movies, did surprisingly better. -Repetition- fatigue is real.
Most profitable movies of 2025 so far look like Sinners, Weapons, Materialists, & Minecraft. Nearly all them were not expected slam dunk hits with huge marketing campaigns. In case of Sinners, there was a weird insider whisper campaign to torpedo it before release! www.vulture.com/article/is-s...
Look at this in an article on biggest fumble of 2025, Sony licensing K-pop Demon Hunters wholesale to Netflix, which could’ve been a giant lifeline to theaters and Sony and despite insane demand for it, won’t because of Netflix’s current strategy to end theatrical. www.bloomberg.com/news/newslet...
Right now there’s a lot of articles about how 2025 US total box office so far proves movies are in decline. It’s mostly bullshit. The real story of 2025 is original movies audiences want to see are doing individually far better than anyone expected, and studios seem to not know, or what people want…
The key takeaway is Netflix’s bragged about algorithm that spies on every click you make gives them more data about audiences than ever existed in cinema history. But it has not led to their biggest hits. K-pop DH was made fully separate from Netflix & has crushed their $320 million Electric State.
That's completely impossible to enforce
I have no idea one way or the other, but if the president was gravely ill & dying, this is exactly how it would play out. Any president, not just him. We wouldn’t want hostile foreign powers to know we were vulnerable. Especially when the leaders of said hostile foreign powers are all together.
Make this morally bankrupt asshole famous.
My statement on @nadler.house.gov’s decision not to seek re-election next year.
Real talk, though, this is what can happen when Europeans surrender their actual identities to partake in the social and political advantages of "whiteness." Their "heritage" becomes corporate logos.
He provided chat logs to "prove" Lindsay was cool with the To Boldly Flee rape scene. He found out I cried in his studio bathroom and his reaction was to side with Michaud, who cornered me alone. All due respect, Doug can fuck himself.
I'm just gonna say it, the rewriting of history around DW and the infantilization of him and claiming he was just ignorant and didn't know anything is infuriating. Him not being the CA CEO doesn't mean he wasn't one of the top three dudes in the room making whack-ass decisions.
73 isn’t young, but it’s too young to be gone. I’m really sad about Graham Greene, who elevated whatever he was in.
they are threatened by anyone who lives in reality instead of the algorithmicly-curated simulacrum they've constructed for themselves.
It’s time to teach Susan Collins a lesson.
We need a Hakeem Jeffries of the right.
Please report this scammer. It's not me.
Pretty significant tax increase!

The United States had one of the worst COVID outcomes in the entire world from a body count standpoint. Anyone who argues with a straight face we were TOO cautious is an unserious imbecile.
Only one of us is qualified to diagnose autism and assess IQ—and it isn’t you. 😊✌️
gen Z guy watching a movie that made him feel two different things: Ah, this is "tonal whiplash," a terrible flaw.
RIP sir... a huge talent. "Graham Greene, a Canadian actor best known for his Oscar-nominated turn in the 1990 film “Dances with Wolves,” died on Monday in Toronto after a battle with long illness. He was 73."
On September 1, 2025, we lost a true legend. Graham Greene, Oneida from Six Nations Reserve, walked on at the age of 73. Over the span of more than 175 acting credits, he gave us characters that were unforgettable, complex, and real. redpopnews.com/remembering-... #redpopnews
...aren't you AFRICAN? ... ...and, like, the version that's kinda not originally from THERE either?
I’m in the camp that blames this on the internet. It showed people with extremist views they’re not as fringe as they thought, and gave them tools to organize, while getting tons of regular people to believe the most important issue is “something must be done about the people who bother me online.”
Man, James Cagney was the SHIT.
I still feel like they could've squeezed another Season out of that one... youtu.be/hV7OacHXpfU?...

Portland, Maine crowd as Democratic US Senate candidate Graham Platner takes the stage today.
And now one of the Democrats. Incumbent bloodbath midterm coming.
Thank you on this labor day!!
I dunno if "Blueskyism" has helped move the numbers UP ⬆️ on our independent film and pop-culture Patreon; but it sure would be swell to see that be a thing and there's a super-easy way for all you FINE folks to make yet another one of these stories a reality 😉 www.patreon.com/moviebob1 #blueskyism
"Blueskyism" helped the Mississippi Free Press overcome algorithmic suppression on other platforms (Facebook, Threads) and ride out plummeting engagement on Twitter following Musk's X takeover. Thank God we took our eggs out of the X basket when we did.
Holy hell @maconblair.bsky.social THE TOXIC AVENGER really understood the assignment
There probably is a lesson in the fact that Obama shepherded the most left-wing piece of federal legislation since the Great Society, over opposition in and outside his own party, and is chiefly remembered by the left now as a do-nothing moderate.
Oh I've been expecting that one for over a decade.
RIP Graham Greene. Every time he popped up on screen when I was a kid, my mom would excitedly point him out for being an actual Native on the screen. Able to be deadly serious and infinitely hilarious (even in smaller roles like Last of Us), he ate up the screen. Nʌki’wah brother.
RIP Graham Greene, watch Clearcut or go to hell
Man when they eventually make the "Closer to the books!!" 🤮 streaming TV show version of 'GODFATHER' it's going to be just the worst thing ever, huh?
the men who leave comments on clips of scenes from The Godfather talk like they personally served alongside Michael Corleone in the Pacific Theater of World War II
THE TORCH HAS BEEN PASSED. My legendary prowess and decades long winning streak at this game is spoken of in fearful, whispered tones in the secret halls of carnies. No man can defeat me at Whack-A-Mole... But my daughter IS NO MAN.
Platner: No one cares that you pretend to be remorseful as you sell out to lobbyists. Symbolic opposition does not reopen hospitals. Weak condemnations do not bring back Roe V Wade. Maine deserves better than Susan Collins.
Usha's husband is bad at impressions.
Yeah, he's dead.
Bluesky is now among and often *the* highest referer to @motherjones.com. That’s traffic that has been additive. Only Twitter has dipped btw, the rest as fairly steady state (and instagram impressions and video views on all platforms up enormously.)
Anyway, my friends at Bluesky proper should start marketing this place with these kinds of quotes. It makes this website seem like the fucking Thunderdome when in reality it's a place where I post pictures of Viscous Brown Food-Like Substance On A Plate solely to unnerve people.
Impressive, but if your publication is in want of a bordering-on-has-been movie critic I *think* together we could turn those numbers AROUND! 🫡 (...no but for real though I'm always looking for work so yea 🤣)
"Blueskyism" helped make The Onion one of the largest newspapers in the world in less than a year. If we had spent all of our time on Twitter, we'd be poorer, dumber and terminally ill with internet poisoning. He's just angry he's wasting away over there in a nazi agnostic lane that doesn't exist.
I would just like to personally posit that The Democrats would win more elections if they would watch more YouTube essays about modestly obscure old movies. Perhaps mine? Actually, just mine. Specifically mine 👍 youtu.be/gZ4pggt_m84?...

Chloë Grace Moretz and Kate Harrison got married this weekend. (via Vogue)
Mayor Bowser was doing more to help Washington DC when she was out of town on vacation.
This is a completely ahistorical framing of Nazism and a baffling misread of Trump, especially this time through, where the embrace of 'secular crazy' internet-brainrot and RFK's crunchy-crystal-health-woo bullsh---ery was MUCH more key than the jesus-juicer buy-in that every generic Republican gets
Amerikkka aways protects guns over children… we watch the kids die every year… over and over again…
why is donald trump tweeting about how he can see his mother in the corner of the room telling him it's almost time to come home??? and why is it "so bright in here, brighter than i thought it would be" in the White House?
"President Trump owes us answers about his health": weak, frames him as good-faith statesman, boring "What did JD Vance know about Trump's health and when did he know it?": interesting, carries implication Trump's health is fucked up as a given, implies scandal spreading throughout admin
people say posting isn’t praxis but our posting made the president of the united states imperil his own health, maybe his life, to stage a stupid photo op while recovering from some illness and/or procedure to treat that illness
He's also got no sauce, no base and the media doesn't "like" him. Trump is the exhaust port on his own Death Star.
People don't get this: The very fact that Vance DOES have commitments, beliefs and people he listens to is why he's NOT more dangerous or powerful than Trump.

Okay, gang... I understand the gag here AND people's revulsion to it, but if we *must* split this very dumb hair? STALINISM. "Maoism" if you want to be spicy about it. The "state-capitalism organized under a strongman in ostensibly socialist states" is just named for whoever the leader guy was 👍
Depends - as they were, or as each has imagined them? 😉
Best I can figure is they want to get something out of there in a way that somebody else currently in the building (ie the press or a VIP) is never aware of it. Like bedsheets caked in shit, for example.
Today we celebrate one of my favorite characters portrayed by one of my favorite people. It’s the anniversary of #Peacemaker! Watch new episodes every Thursday on HBO Max.
Man…. My country’s children’s television programming is in the PITS. Unless someone does a huge rebound, this will be BLEAK.
Only in my mind, sadly 😥
It's still wild to me that Twisted Metal ended up with a more beloved second season of television than The Last Of Us... Fans AND critics alike! #FizzVsGaming
Plus more Turtles later this year.
Everybody clench.
When I was an Amazon driver, holidays weren’t really holidays. Nobody gets paid holidays. If the holiday falls on a day that you’re regularly scheduled, you have to make up that day to get your regular weekly hours. Would it kill the company to give everyone real paid holidays? Happy Labor Day.
lol the Atlantic rules
I am okay with this I will be even more okay with it if and when QAnon jumps on that bandwagon
COVID arguably cut the "effective" years of Trump I's policy project in half
It really shouldn't take "All the worst voices in fandom media are saying X so we have to acknowledge Y" for people to finally acknowledge Y has been objectively correct all along. Some of us have been (LOUDLY!) pointing at Y for years now 🤷♂️
We've allowed dorks who can only see artistic value through who has the biggest number to dominate the discourse for far too long... #FizzVsComics
If this MFer actually *dies* it'll be twice in a row we've had to go "Yea, American Fascism was kinda cookin' there for a minute until BASICALLY THE ENDING TO 'WAR OF THE WORLDS' threw a speed-bump in it."
This should be the lead story in all major national news outlets. Public health people prefer to stay out of the limelight unless there is no other choice. I can’t overstate how bad things have to be for 9 former CDC directors to band together and pen an op-ed in the NYT warning the entire country.
Have the "someone else in a pullover mask" rumors started yet?
*(this movie is called "MEAN GUNS" from 1997. It's ...pretty good? Not as good as you -want- it to be based on this setup, but as straight-to-video microbudget 90s B-movies it's solid. Albert Pyun was the director, RIP to a real one 🤘) youtu.be/ZJ1ci5Z12EU?...
looking so good, king! keep it up!
"The Amazing Digital Circus" - Episode 6 🙃
👆 Which - TO BE CLEAR! - is fine, there's no "right" way to do these things. But that's the point ...I don't think it's any more right/wrong to start off and go "NAH, I'll figure this out later. Or I'll have a better idea."
I think that's SOME of it, but I also think a lot of it is that the fanfic "ladder" has supplanted the old creative-writing "workshop" world in certain ways, and for some "building a system/world" for their own material feels like laying down a safety net for working without an IP to "fic" off of.
...b/c they ran ONE strip that got a bunch of sentimental "Aw, we love the kids!" mail and Keane went "They don't necessarily WANT jokes, even? Well okay then!" and rapidly morphed it into what it's known as now 🤷♂️ (it probably helped that he *didnt* hate his wife+kids, of course...)
Oh yeah, Hank Ketchum is in a class of his own among genuinely BAD people in comics history. Genuinely wild case-study in how "Family Circus" STARTED as the same kind of occasionally snarky 'Working dad vaguely resents his family' strip but morphed into totally the opposite...
Any time. We're all in this together, or at least we ought to be 🫡
