This summer's surprise film that hits you in the feelings: The Life of Chuck, based closely on a Stephen King novella of the same title. My kid mourned a character for a whole week after seeing it, and didn't seem to realize it was also about processing my kid's future death and mourning that, too.
I am extremely fond of you, Evan, and I hope you'll understand when I say I wanted to like Bridesmaids. I also hated Red Dawn with the heat of a 1,000 suns when it was released and I went on a date to see it. HAAAAATED that movie. That film reference came out of nowhere, but after learning at Wonkette that the RW douche bros want to start an anti-Hollywood film studio of their own, and one of them said how much they enjoyed films like Red Dawn, it brought the memory back to me. I'll never get that time back. I hope they pour lots of their own money into that stupid film studio and lose their shirts. Feelin' petty today, sorry!
"Representative Randy Fine of Florida has drawn intense criticism for comments he made on social media last week calling the images of starving children in Gaza a campaign of “Muslim terror propaganda.”
“Release the hostages,” Mr. Fine wrote, adding, “until then, starve away.”
Mr. Fine, a first-term lawmaker who has been outspoken in Congress about his Jewish faith and staunchly pro-Israel views, made the remarks the same day that he was elevated to a seat on the House Foreign Affairs Committee, the influential panel that focuses on international policy." [NYT]
I very highly recommend a movie going places: it’s the best documentary about growing heirloom roses ever made. It shows up regularly on Tubi under the title “Pacific Rim.” https://youtu.be/FbLIZvNHY2o?si=J-nBr7Z-pODdXWNO
OMG Atsuko Okatsuka is *wonderful*! Please go see her shows and clap for her all the time and marvel at how she's brilliant and hilarious and also dresses like a flower!
You know Charlie, if the most vibrant, exciting city in the world frightens you, go to Branson Missouri or that fake Noah's Ark in Kentucky for your vacation.
"Apparently Epstein kept stealing staffers Trump really liked or something?" He snagged a girl that Trump wanted to keep for himself, and then he did it again.
I just laugh at magas who are too scared to go to NYC. This Charlie Kirk character was lying, of course. If he was so scared then he wouldn't go there. I'd like to invite him to subscribe the Dallas Morning News paper and read the daily shooting report. It's a real western shoot-out every single night, but you'd never hear about it in the Nooz.

Martini dahling, I still don't get your posts.

Ta. I probably knew that.
Thanks for the koalas to take the taste of Jesse Watters et al., out of my mind....mouth? Image? I'm having a confusing morning.
Babby! :D
Koala kiss!
Koalas are kool.
Koolalas?
"When do I get the eucalyptus?"
Those ears!
It's Ma Supial!
Oh Dad… 😝
That's one cute and sleepy babby....
I have NEVER seen a wee baby koala bear before; thank you, marvelous Martini!
Looked cartoony at first
Nor have I, equally grateful.
Joey! Don't worry kiddo, it gets better...
Mama, just snoozed a bear…🎶
Babby Drop Bear!
Cuteness overload!
Koalas are reptiles? Australia is so delightfully weird. Cute little curious creature.
"The Koalas are in the 𝘙𝘦𝘱𝘵𝘪𝘭𝘦 𝘏𝘰𝘶𝘴𝘦! Where else would they be? Where do you keep 𝘺𝘰𝘶𝘳𝘴?"
Sorry I asked...
I was going to make a similar non-comment, but fortunately read yours first.
(Babby koala): "Hi there! I should grow into my ears and nose eventually."

Perfect summer movie: Surf's Up

Evan, Evan, Evan . . . you're only just NOW finding out about "Bridesmaids" and Atsuko Okatsuka??!! Well, better late than never!
If you like Atsuko, check out her HBO comedy special, "The Intruder" - it's excellent!
I’ve always said gun humpers are the biggest cowards in the world. Now it appears they are only a subset of Kustist Kowards.
I missed this if posted earlier:

In queso emergency, pray to Cheesus.
To steal from the comic artist Evan Dorkin, “!Vaya con queso!”
I lived in NYC in the late 70s and never once was I Charlie Kirk-level scared.
Not that Charlie Kirk has any credibility in the first place, but if he did, misspelling "Manhattan" would not enhance it.
Jesse remains high on the list of people that if I encounter in real life, my wife knows why she's getting a call about bail

Dad strong. Jebus, if it was physically possible for him to strip nekkid (ew) and twirl, his meat curtain collops would resemble a pasty tutu.
Sry wonkerts, it was in my brain and it had to come out.
