Trump keeps it succinct, that thing he’s known to do when something goes really well for him.

Talked to so many people who were at the first protests of their lives today. Ex-Republicans, introverts, 90-year-olds and 3-year-olds. This was at an intersection in a 60,000 person town. Haven’t felt hope like this in my life.

"defund the police" was so obviously correct. I really don't care if it doesn't poll well. it's like telling me that I should stop saying I like vaccines if they stopped polling well.

Especially if you're on the fence about it, protest today. Fascism is isolating and lonely. Its very goal is to make you feel like you're the only person unwilling to accept a cult of personality. On days like today you fully realize there are more of us than there are them. You will feel better.

It’s not just that they normalize political violence. They also accuse the left of engaging in mostly imaginary violence, which gives unhinged right-wingers justification to “retaliate.”

The donors don't want their workforce deported. But you'll be subject to deportation if you quit your job or join a union or try to bargain for better wages or complain about sexual harassment.

I’ve rewatched Royal Tenenbaums and Get Shorty this week. As often and as capably as he brought comic timing to his roles, it’s wild how few of them Gene Hackman took that were full on comedic. Because he was amazing at them

‘He said that he tried to work with Mr. Cuomo as mayor. “I tried respect. I tried compromise,” he said. “And what I found was he didn’t keep his word, he didn’t tell the truth, and he put his political interests ahead of New York City’s needs.”’

anyone who works for ICE is a bad person imagine clocking in at the child traumatization factory every morning and thinking that’s an acceptable thing to do as a human being just unconscionable

they were always like this. the thing that changed is that the circle of people they felt to have to be respectful to used to include powerful democrats and it no longer does.

My addendum to @mtsw.bsky.social’s refrain is that billionaires who own media achieve their goal of helping Trump by hiring people like this. This isn’t a journalism problem. Reporters making $18/hr at my local paper don’t have this problem. No, this is the talent that gets you hired at the bigs.

I'm literally NEVER concerned about the Proud Boys showing up in LA. Every single time the Proud Boys have shown up in LA they've gotten their shit kicked in, bear sprayed, stabbed, and run over.

The Democratic Party right now is basically that guy in a movie hostage scene who stands up like “listen everybody if we just all do everything they say, we’re going to be fine” and then they shoot him in the kneecap and he spends the rest of the movie bleeding out in the corner

It would be great if America’s pundits would pause this entire genre. “Burning down my house means I don’t need to take out the trash!” Your cleverness is not winning the day right now.

It’s really a shame that the economics of cinema make it so impractical for filmmakers to just fire off glossy, mid-budget shorts, because I’m realizing that I don’t consider the Dahl shorts to be in his top five or even top eight but they’re also the ones I rewatch the most because it’s so easy to

the giveaway here is that if you were really concerned with more ideological diversity on bluesky, you wouldn't be telling people already on bluesky. What are we supposed to do about it? You'd be telling conservatives that they should join the site. Goal is to convince people to abandon here.
