Pedro Pascal Got The Last Laugh (?) On Kieran Culkin At The Emmys For That ‘Suck It, Pedro’ Remark From The Globes

Pedro Pascal Kieran Culkin

At the recent Golden Globes ceremony, Succession‘s Kieran Culkin (already infamously) accepted his award (for Best Actor – Television Series Drama) while telling fellow nominee Pedro Pascal (of The Last Of Us) what he thought of the moment: “Suck it, Pedro.”

That was a total Roman Roy moment (although much kinder than that d*ck pic move from Succession itself, thank goodness) and went viral accordingly. Well, Pedro was ready for a bit of revenge at the Emmys. When he had the opportunity to take the mic, Pedro decided to tell everyone how he hurt his shoulder (not his arm): “Kieran Culkin beat the sh*t out of me.” Naturally, FOX bleeped out the profanity-laden sentence on the broadcast, but the S-bomb would not be kept down for long.

Now for the comparison reaction shot.

If you wanted to watch the “Suck it, Pedro” again, here you go.

Your move, Kieran Culkin. (Please keep this faux-feud going.)

Fortunately, the Emmys are going over far less awkwardly than the recent Globes ceremony. Awards season might finally be hitting its groove in 2024. Host Anthony Anderson is pulling off one of the more difficult gigs in the biz with much more to come in the broadcast.

Grizzlies Rookie GG Jackson Was Overjoyed He Got To Talk To Shaq After A Big Night Against The Warriors

TNT

The Memphis Grizzlies picked up a 116-107 win over the Golden State Warriors on Monday evening. Despite the team being in the midst of a, quite frankly, unbelievable injury crisis, Memphis defended its homecourt thanks in large part to the play of rookie forward GG Jackson.

A former 5-star recruit who spent one up-and-down year at South Carolina and went in the second round of the 2023 NBA Draft, Jackson has started to get a little more run as the injuries pile up in Memphis. Monday ended up being the best game of his young career, as he went for 23 points on 6-for-9 shooting with six rebounds, two blocks, two steals, and an assist. And after the game, Jackson got to talk to the Inside the NBA guys, which meant he got to talk to Shaquille O’Neal, which meant he got to geek out over Shaq praising him.

You could already tell that he was in a great mood — he called talking to them a “dream come true” — and then, at the 1:18 mark, Shaq chimes in and Jackson’s face just lights up.

“I don’t have any questions,” Shaq said. “I just wanna say congratulations, young fella. You’ve played a hell of a game. And if people didn’t know who you were, they know who you are now. I’m so proud of you, congratulations on being ready, brother.”

Charles Barkley then chimed in with a joke, which led to Shaq telling Chuck to count the rings. Jackson, who turned 19 less than a month ago, loved all of this, and honestly, if all of this happened to me when I was 19, I’d probably have the exact same reaction.

It’s Unfortunately Official: Rhea Seehorn Never Won An Emmy For ‘Better Call Saul’

kim wexler
amc

The Emmys have made a lot of mistakes since the first ceremony aired 75 years ago. Remember when Modern Family won Outstanding Comedy Series five years in a row? That was weird. But in recent history, one of the most galling snubs is Better Call Saul star Rhea Seehorn only been nominated for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Drama Series twice — and losing both times, including during tonight’s ceremony.

No offense to Jennifer Coolidge, who is thriving, but she already has an Emmy. And Seehorn gave an all-time great performance as Kim Wexler.

At least she’s the people’s champions.

“Of course, the awards are not supposed to be everything. They’re not always a meritocracy. People who are great don’t always get them, or people you didn’t think were great do,” Seehorn told the AV Club in 2022 about her Emmy-less streak. “The snub thing is weird because who were you replacing if you were snubbed, right? There’s just a lot of great work out there. You do get hopeful.”

Better Call Saul has actually never won an Emmy. It has five more chances: Best Drama Series, Best Drama Actor for Bob Odenkirk, and Best Drama Writing for both Gordon Smith (“Point and Shoot”) and Peter Gould (“Saul Gone”). Stay tuned.

Christina Applegate Received A Standing Ovation As Soon As She Popped Onstage At The Emmys

The 75th Primetime Emmys are rolling with winners to be celebrated all evening. First, however, Christina Applegate popped onstage early in the ceremony to present an award, and the audience was ready for the former Kelly Bundy of Married… With Children fame. Applegate previously predicted that the 2023 Screen Actors Guild Awards would be her final awards show as an actor, and she attended that ceremony with a cane brandished with a “F*ck MS” message.

Let’s just say that it’s a good thing that Applegate was wrong, and although she didn’t win her supporting actress category (for Netflix’s final Dead to Me season) tonight, everyone was thrilled to see her onstage. The standing ovation tells the tale:

The third Dead to Me paused filming for several months when Applegate received her MS diagnosis. She still managed to embrace rage metal during the season, but on a more serious note, she told Variety, “[I]t was about kind of learning — all of us learning — what I was going to be capable of doing.” Additionally, “I had to call everybody and be like, ‘I have multiple sclerosis guys. Like, what the f*ck!’”

Calling it now: Christina Applegate needs to show up at every TV awards ceremony from here on out.

Neuroscience learns what Buddhism has known for ages: There is no constant self

Proving that science and religion can, in fact, overlap, University of British Columbia researcher Evan Thompson has confirmed the Buddhist teaching of the not-self, or “anatta,” is more than just a theory.

“Buddhists argue that nothing is constant, everything changes through time, you have a constantly changing stream of consciousness,” he tells Quartz. “And from a neuroscience perspective, the brain and body is constantly in flux. There’s nothing that corresponds to the sense that there’s an unchanging self.”


This reality that nothing stays the same should be liberating, because if people believe it, they’ll no longer define themselves by their thoughts or be limited by a fixed idea of who they are. Their possibilities will be endless.

Buddhist Monks have known for thousands of years what science is just now learning: the mind can be changed by training it. Neuroplasticity, as it’s called, endows people with the ability to grow and evolve, triumphing over bad habits and becoming more like the individuals they want to be.

Buddha, religion, self awareness, evolution, enlightenmentDiscover & share this Big GIF with everyone you know. GIPHY is how you search, share, discover, and create GIFs.

Still, exactly how consciousness relates to the brain eludes both Buddhism and neuroscience. Buddhists suppose there’s an iteration of consciousness that doesn’t require a physical body; neuroscientists disagree.

“In neuroscience, you’ll often come across people who say the self is an illusion created by the brain,” Thompson says. “My view is that the brain and the body work together in the context of our physical environment to create a sense of self. And it’s misguided to say that just because it’s a construction, it’s an illusion.”

Here’s a paycheck for a McDonald’s worker. And here’s my jaw dropping to the floor.

I’ve written tons of things about minimum wage, backed up by fact-checkers and economists and scholarly studies. All of them point to raising the minimum wage as a solution to lifting people out of poverty and getting folks off of public assistance. It’s slowly happening, and there’s much more to be done.

But when it comes right down to it, where the rubber meets the road is what it means for everyday workers who have to live with those wages. I honestly don’t know how they do it.


Ask yourself: Could I live on this small of a full-time paycheck? I know what my answer is.

(And note that the minimum wage in many parts of the county is STILL $7.25, so it would be even less than this).

paychecks, McDonalds, corporate power, broken system

Mike Tomlin Walked Out Of His Press Conference During A Question About His Future

The Pittsburgh Steelers saw their season come to an end on Monday afternoon. Despite getting within one score of the Buffalo Bills in the fourth quarter of their Wild Card matchup in Orchard Park, the Steelers were just unable to get over the hump, as the Bills were able to pick up a 31-17 win to earn a matchup with the Kansas City Chiefs next Sunday.

As for Pittsburgh, the team will now enter the offseason on the heels of a 10-7 campaign where they just managed to sneak into the postseason. There are still big questions that need to be answered, though, like how the team will break its ongoing playoff losing streak and whether or not Mike Tomlin will stick around long-term. Tomlin has only one year left on his contract after this season, and perhaps unsurprisingly, he wasn’t in much of a mood to discuss the future.

One very good way to get across that you do not want to answer something is, certainly, to just get up and leave while the question is being asked. Regardless, with Bill Belichick leaving the Patriots, Tomlin is now the NFL’s longest-tenured head coach, as he’s been at the helm of the Steelers since 2007. He’s never had a losing season, but Pittsburgh has not won a playoff game since making the AFC Championship Game in 2016.

The NFL Announced The 2024 Divisional Round TV Schedule

josh allen patrick mahomes

The schedule for next weekend’s NFL Divisonal Round had to wait an extra day to be released due to the weather in Buffalo, as typically the league would hope to have that done by Sunday, but with Bills-Steelers not able to be played until Monday afternoon, they had to wait.

With the Bills getting a 31-17 win over the Steelers on Monday afternoon, the Ravens and Chiefs were no longer waiting to know their opponents, as Baltimore will host Houston and Buffalo will host Kansas City. With two Monday games, next week’s game featuring those teams were guaranteed to be the Sunday games to give them 6 days in between game days. Unsurprisingly, the latest in the Chiefs-Bills budding rivalry was given the primetime placement, while Detroit will host either the Bucs or Eagles in the early window.

The two top seeds will play Saturday, with the opener in Baltimore between the Ravens and Texans and the 49ers hosting the Packers in San Francisco. The full TV schedule for the Divisional Round can be found below.

SATURDAY, JANUARY 20
Houston Texans at Baltimore Ravens, 4:30 p.m. ET (ESPN)
Green Bay Packers at San Francisco 49ers, 8:00 p.m. ET (FOX)

SUNDAY, JANUARY 22
Tampa Bay Buccaneers/Philadelphia Eagles at Detroit Lions, 3:00 p.m. ET (NBC)
Kansas City Chiefs at Buffalo Bills, 6:30 p.m. ET (CBS)
