Gee, if only Tom Cruise and Steven Spielberg had made a blockbuster movie about how this was a bad idea.

Jeff the killer (who looked like a weird chibi funko pop like mascot costume) broke in to kill me and my family. As this was happening I kept yelling to my mom that he was gonna, "Jeff the kill you."

Hey chums!

Are you looking for a queer romcom full of banter, hijinks and Big Feelings? Have you ever wondered what if weddings also had a Worst Man? Good news! We've been working really hard on a book just for you!

What happens when Radcliffe Raleigh, a professional relationship-ruiner coerced by an evil billionaire to sabotage her daughter's wedding, catches feelings for the Best Man? When he realises he's on the wrong side of the job, can he turn around all the chaos he's sown in time to salvage the wedding?

Vibe-wise, think Glass Onion meets White Lotus meets Leverage. Also, it's very funny.

THE BLUES BROTHERS (1980)

[anim-ttrpgs]

Every “True Crime” story (that isn’t just complete sensationalist fearmongering) is always like

“Ashley Jones was found murdered in her apartment in 1986, but police couldn’t seem to find any leads. Police were baffled. The case.. went cold. In 2005, a deputee at the Cantalope County Sheriff's Department realized that one of the napkins in the break room was actually a signed witness statement claiming to have seen Bob Smith commit the murder. This witness statement came just days after the killing, but had never been followed up on. Police tracked down the witness, and Bob Smith, now aged 65, was arrested and, accepting a plea deal, was found guilty in January 2007. In 2024, he was released on parole after serving just 17 years of his 20-year sentence. Ashley Jones’s family.. were outraged.. In response, the governor of Mississippi passed ‘Ashley’s Law,’ requiring all prisoners in the state convicted of a felony to serve the maximum sentence possible without the possibility of parole.”
