my sister’s friends watched three movies to prepare for their first theatrical bollywood movie experience. They did not check with us first. they watched chak de india, taare zameen par, and 3 idiots. The movie we were going to see was Jawan.
I didn't realise taare zameen par is so popular outside india.

wearing a nice outfit and going to feed pigeons is honestly a very enjoyable, low-cost activity. keep a little ziploc bag of pigeon seed in your pocket in case you see pigeons.

can I just say cause I’ve been holding back on this. why do these prompts always say non alcoholic drink. that’s so easy! coffee. banger. coconut water. banger. guava juice. banger. diet coke. banger. apple cider. banger. what’s hard is making alcohol taste yummy.

Worth noting that the final nail in the Biden coffin was reportedly that he was losing by 7 points in Michigan, which has a significant Arab population.
Biden is out, in no small part,.as a consequence of public resistance to the US-Israel alliance. The resistance successfully shifted global politics on this issue. Now the pressure must be placed on HARRIS to change policy direction. US-Israel has already failed militarily….

A lehenga fit for a queen, designed for the silver screen. In JODHA AKBAR (2008), Aishwarya Rai Bachchan’s red wedding lehenga is a feast for the eyes: vibrant zardozi embroidery, centuries-old craftsmanship, and a hidden gem—quite literally. Look closely and you’ll spot a

@Dan_J_Maher @vanillatary Yes! People get so offended by “The Beatles are overrated” that they seem to forget what the world overrated means. It doesn’t mean awful. It means maybe they didn’t invent music and maybe they did copy from other artists like Chuck Berry.

whole ass political science departments have made their careers out of coming up with statistical models just to dig up some proof that plea bargaining leads to racially inequitable outcomes. and these guys just… typed it out and stuck it on their office cubicle as a reminder.

@vjgtweets Coldplay can easily sell out an entire tour in the US in a day. Fossil has a huge section in the NYC Herald Square Macy’s. There’s no need to impute their overall broad appeal onto specifically Indian people’s tastes and aspirations. That’s so needlessly condescending.

lmao in my freshman year of college some white dude was like “you must be indian” and I was like “yeah 🙄” and he was like “are you Kannada” and I almost fell over cause even Kannada people don’t guess that. It turns out he had one (1) indian friend and guess where they were from.
in college this drunken frat bro started making clicking noises at me because I said I was east african. i said "you racist piece of shit, i bet you have no idea where i'm from" and with no hesitation he said "you're probably from eritrea"

i feel like this is a little revisionist history. a lot of effort was put into blowing up barney’s blog and “the bro code”. crucially, the girls he hit on were constantly made to seem like the butt of the joke. and it was ALWAYS lily or robin calling them “desperate”, “skanky”.
Every so often, somebody writes a think piece about how Barney from #HIMYM is problematic. This confuses me, because Barney was always written as a parody of toxic masculinity, not an endorsement of it. I feel sad for all the time the think piece writer wasted not thinking that.

After his experience directing Home Alone and dealing with the shitshow that was Macaulay Culkin’s family, Chris Columbus really put in a lot of effort to cast child actors with normal parents. That’s why all three of those kids turned out mostly ok despite being megastars.
Daniel Radcliffe should be so f***** up from being the kind of child star of that magnitude that he was, and by all accounts, he's a decent guy, a great actor, and an incredible ally. Good for him, that's nice!.

um what do you mean?? The plotlines literally cross over
I don't think the target audiences for Greta Gerwig's "Barbie" and Christopher Nolan's "Oppenheimer" overlap all that much, so I don't see what the problem is with them both premiering on July 21, 2023. Barbie fans aren't really into "I am become Death, destroyer of worlds.".

wow. I knew gone with the wind was successful but this list really puts it in perspective. wow.
Just realized that no movie can beat Gone with the Winds box office gross adjusted for inflation 🟰 4.19 billion dollars unless they can pass that mark. And seeing how tickets for Gone with the Wind cost premium I’m not sure that’s a possibility.
