Not one comment is about how "this movie glorifies stealing" like the rightwingers said when coming after I Love Boosters

For the first time yesterday, I experienced the new @alamodrafthouse QR code ordering system and I can tell you it’s truly awful. Rather than making ordering food and drink more efficient, it actually adds steps to the process AND if you want to order additional items during the film you HAVE to open your phone.

Inflation is at a three-year high. Everything costs more — groceries, gas, healthcare, a plane ticket.
The math is simple. Every American dollar spent overseas on war is a dollar that could’ve been spent here at home to pay for a dignified life. It's time we change the equation.
Perfectly reasonable response. I’m not sure why any university would even allow an IDF member on their campus. Why would you want your students to be antagonized by rapists and baby killers?
COLLECTIVE civic joy in Los Angeles is such a rare and wonderful thing.
I want to bottle the feeling of everyone on the platform grinning at each other & waving at strangers & documenting the moment & generally being in it together.
