First look at Dwayne Johnson as the Chicken Man in Benny Safdie's ‘LIZARD MUSIC’. The film follows a young boy who finds a secret late-night broadcast of lizards playing otherworldly music that opens a hidden door to the whimsical Chicken Man.

I also had no idea what this was before talking to @kandrpetras.bsky.social about it on our show, and once I found out, I also discovered why I had no idea what it was (it seems absurd!).
I regularly report this when it comes up in class: 0% of my students this year have any idea what the "hopefully" usage controversy is. Have never even heard of it. These are MFA writing students.

Alonso is right! And also, I watched Exorcist II in prep for seeing the doc, and... I had a heck of a good time, sincerely, not ironically, with that nutty-ass movie.
Still haven’t seen Boorman and the Devil, one of the year’s best docs? It makes its TCM debut Friday night, followed by a presentation of its subject, Exorcist II: The Heretic. #filmsky 📽 @davidkittredge.bsky.social @tcmtv.bsky.social
On the last episode of GBBO, Paul said something about how cookies should be “naughty,” and @nigella.bsky.social said she doesn’t approve of talking about food as naughty b/c we should take pleasure where we can get it. I’ve always agreed with that and also what Elon said here.

People truly believe their children are not autonomous beings. I see this over and over again with the transphobes in my comments. They think their children are a direct extension of themselves. Not only that they are the boss of their kids, but that their kids don’t have independent humanity.
