Romancing the Stone turns 42 today.
Studio execs had zero faith in this Douglas/Turner/DeVito adventure from Robert Zemeckis. Then it cleared $100M, and suddenly Zemeckis could make anything he wanted. So he made his pet project... Back to the Future. DeVito's fall is hilarious!

PLEASE give users the option to permanently delete the godawful “for you” tab. It’s as addictive as meth, makes everyone angry and miserable (also like meth), and yet you guys won’t let us take away the “consume meth” option and instead keep it permanently placed front and centre of the app. Which means anyone trying to curate their experience/quit meth has no choice but to just delete X.

Accustomed to addressing the nation. Linguistics for visiting dignitaries. At home north and south. Largely trusted except when Ireland ahead late on. Arguably as much of a poet as incumbent. Would @HamiltonRTE do the decent thing and take on this presidency gig?
