Think the sentiment is true and in theory it could be a good bit. But sometimes it feels writers who spend too much time on Twitter write lines for Twitter. As in, blunt and badly written. Haven’t seen that pacemaker show but I saw similar screen caps there.

I think you're right; this isn't written as a human speaking to another human, let alone a woman speaking to a family member.

You can almost see:
"Let me tell you what I, a woman, know about anger - buckle up!
🧵 1/11"

Critical Drinker is a very solid critic btw :wow

Can't stand his schtick and his arguments aren't usually very well supported imo.

I can understand not caring for his presentation but I disagree about the second part.  I think Drinker regularly offers astute observations and smart fixes (where applicable) to the movies and shows he reviews, and he does it without needing a half hour or more.  Much like with Tom Chick's critique on games, I don't always agree with Drinkers criticisms or praise, but even in those instances I usually get something worthwhile or compelling out of their observations.

Apparently because there's a tiktok trend where black creators post vids of themselves happily frolicking in nature, no one else can do this or else you're stealing from black people. Kill me.

You could tell he was helping the other less experienced and younger actors get through the scenes.
From the few episodes that I watched, he was the best thing about the show but obviously couldn't salvage it.

Literally the first frame when it cut to the lady gave “the most annoying person you’ll ever hear” vibes. Closed it. Maybe there’s a compelling point. Don’t care. Am comfortable going through life without hearing it.

It's a shame that such a good story is wasted on such a shitty cast except for Gina.

I bet you could make a great Hunter Biden movie or TV series with Christian Bale or Edward Norton as Hunter and Woody Harrelson as Joe.
On the other side of the spectrum Jonah Hill already perfectly portrayed Trump Jr. .
The Better Call Saul crew is done with their show, so what the hell is Netflix waiting for?

The timing of when NASCAR threw the caution that ended the Xfinity race made it seem as if they wanted to make sure that Brandon Brown of "let's go Brandon" fame didn't have a chance to win the race.

Or they wanted to just end the race to stop the wrecks.

It's actually true, though. Generally it's context dependent (of course) but if you read "I hate Mondays" in, say, the middle of the heated comment section about police arresting gangbangers, don't be surprised.

Do you think the family gathers round to watch her sex scenes together

Quote
When asked how her family feels about the more explicit scenes on the show, Sweeney explained that she invited her entire extended family to the premiere, including her grandparents. Too overwhelmed with excitement, Sweeney didn’t think about the sex scenes in the season 2 opener.

“I was like, ‘It’s a Hollywood premiere! You’ve got to come!’ And we were all sitting next to each other and…giant screen. Like, ginormous screen,” she said, laughing over the embarrassing moment of her scene with Nate Jacobs (played by Jacob Elordi).

When a shocked DeGeneres asked how they responded to Sweeney’s nude scenes, the actress replied, “They said I have the best tits in Hollywood.” The White Lotus actress’ grandmother even waved from the audience, giving a thumbs-up in approval.

First off I got questions for any straight guy who saw that picture and immediately focused on the t-shirt a man was wearing. Secondly...at what point do young celebs just stop responding to this shit. I get 18-26 year olds are addicted to social media and view it as an extension of their lives but you gotta stop feeding trolls at some point. If she had simply ignored this, it would be a dead topic by tomorrow. Maybe even today. Why would you ever cater or respond to Very Online people who literally believe you should block family members from your life who dare vote for the wrong person. Everyone here knows I think Trump and his MAGA crowd are dangerous idiots but jesus christ what the fuck is wrong with these internet people....just ignore them please.

You're not really wrong there, but Gary is super autistic when it comes to Tolkien & LOTR stuff, so dude's been on a massive tear with the show (which I think also looks tepid and soulless).

Kevin Sorbo's non-sequitur tweets about "liberals" or whatever are great. I've thought this for a while. I feel like he randomly sees something and then spends like a whole day workshopping a reply in his head before he tweets it. I don't care if the reality is otherwise, my reality is this is canon.
