the “young” cast for Dune 3 is basically the defining group of actors for this generation, we’re going to look back in 20 years and wonder how the hell Denis pulled it off
Framing this as being a jab at him and not an acknowledgment of her contributions to the history of Black art Sinners is meant to celebrate doesn’t sit right with me at all actually.
What’s wild about this take is how completely nonsense this is if you know *anything* about the early Pixar movies.
The magic of *every* Brad Bird movie is that they are about his experience being a child prodigy who got hired to 1980s Disney and was not allowed to create.
all this timothee drama tells me is that everyone is desperate for a good old hollywood villain to fit your narratives but you picked the most normal guy ever to project onto
CORRECTION:
I found the actual report and missed a few key details.
$800k is the entire amount spent for ALL meals over three years for the ENTIRE mayoral staff office (about 200 people) for ALL p-card meals/purchases, and for ALL special events, including:
$52,588 TOTAL on:
ALL Ravens home games (over 3 years)
ALL Orioles home games (over 3 years)
PLUS:
$4,315 on six city council meetings
About $3k for bereavement and funeral expenses for employees who died
$310 on baby showers for multiple employees
The issue seems to be the lack of waivers with *pre-approval* on these purchases, but the finance office says they would have approved them anyways.
One charge included in the report is $1,174 for an employee Thanksgiving lunch for the office. That comes out to about $6 per person.
But I guess "Mayoral staff of 200 people spent an average of $1,335 per employee per year over three years, but not all purchases received waivers prior to purchase, even though the office said they would have granted the waivers anyway" is a lot loss sexy than what the media ran with.
