2020 Academy Awards

I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

Bates is deserving. Kinda disappointed Paul Walter Hauser wasn't nominated.
