It’s fine without being scratchy. It’s dark and full without being blotty. I am going to go buy ten more now because I realized I’ve only got 4 left in the house.

BANSHEES OF INISHERIN treats depression as a state of anticipatory self-mourning, fear of death and fear of being forgotten, but also sees this state as solipsistic, self-fulfilling oblivion, a way of blotting out what little light exists while it still does. “How’s the despair?”

McDonagh mulls over life not as a litany of success but as finite years in company of others. To fear not living memorably enough to be remembered is to court despair over kindness; to forget all other people mean, what matters outside of us, is to banish love, to be left alone.

Spent the majority of the runtime believing this was Brie Larson, which somehow made it make sense

I’ll say more later. For now, I’ll just share the types of “funny” DMs Justin Roiland would send me. (Posted and deleted this last night because I was worried about any backlash. But this dude made ME - someone who wrote a Rick & Morty concept album - never watch his show again)

Oh, you’re a Colin Farrell fan? You loved The Banshees of Inisherin? But did you see Phone Booth in the theater in 2003?????

new paper: the 2021 Child Tax Credit — which from July to Dec 2021 gave qualifying families up to $3,600 per child in auto monthly payments — not only appeared to “reduced child poverty by half” it also notably “improved the mental health of adults in the lowest-income families.”

Related thing to note, I think: There’s one cut here at the outset but after that you don’t need another.

I’ve got a quick graphic design request for someone looking for an easy job. Hit me up here if you’re interested - and of course I’m happy to pay for work. No payment in exposure here!

Courtney B Vance recording Angela Bassett’s acceptance speech on his cell phone like this isn’t a major television event with 1000 cameras in the room is King behavior tbh

I understand it isn’t equivalent, but reading about curious kids engaging with text, asking questions and making connections only to be shushed and shamed by a sweaty, bigoted administrator makes me feel the same rage as if I’d watched an adult punch a kid in the throat

Suddenly, Beeman, a school admin present for the recording, starts waving her hands and interrupts Robek. "I just don't think it might be appropriate," she says of The Sneetches.

You may argue THE BANSHEES OF INISHERIN wasn’t comedic enough, but you’re wrong. I know, because I’ve seen the unfunny version.
