happy june 1st fags

$15,120 raised for the Palestine Children's Relief Fund in just a little over 13 hours, with the initial announcement coming at night in the U.S. This brings the total raised since Nov 2023 to approximately $136,000. Thanks everyone. Feel free to continue donating, the page remains up until 31st.

I still think the best idea for progressive donors is to just revive every alt-weekly in the country and staff them with 10 reporters each.

Rangel was a real one. Maybe not entirely free of corruption, but he was definitely one of the more memorable House members for a long time.

Beware, this is how the movie Coherence started.

I haven't seen Companion yet, but I found out that the movie's writer-director has exactly one other screenwriting credit—Fred 3: Camp Fred. The third film based on Lucas Cruickshank's Fred character. I'm not sure what to make of this knowledge.

one thing i keep coming back to, on a personal level, is the importance of reading and writing--and i mean reading *books* and writing *essays*, stuff that takes you away from social media, and really forces you to sit with others' thoughts--and your own.

I was a college student who took econ classes and believed in market-based solutions and means-tested programs, and 20 years later, the GOP has convinced me that we need confiscatory income and wealth taxation

Pope Leo XIV called Wednesday for humanitarian aid to reach the Gaza Strip and for an end to the “heartbreaking” toll on its people, as he presided over his first general audience in St. Peter’s Square. religionnews.com/2025/05/22/p...

“Ceasefire”

People who are still shouting that Israel is not committing genocide must be clapping their hands over their ears every time an Israeli minister steps onto a podium because

Impossible to watch this video without weeping. What these people have gone through I simply cannot imagine.

‘I just want bread’ This elderly Palestinian man, Sameer, broke down in tears from extreme hunger caused by Israel’s blockade in Gaza. At least 1 in 5 Palestinians faces starvation in Gaza as Israel continues attacks.

Just remembered that Hegseth is part of CREC 😑

I don't know if there's ever been a culture more in love with charlatans than ours. "Success" defined entirely by how good you are at tricking people into giving you money. An entire country of aspiring slop merchants

this entire website is a counterpoint to that

If you have a Letterboxd account, review a Mission Impossible movie. Like, right now.

Oh so NOW they want our movie??? 😂 Do yourself a favor, buy it on Blu-Ray when it comes out in a week and OWN it. Support Ketchup Entertainment and their tireless work to help distribute our film, both in theaters and physically.

For an embarrassingly long while, I forgot the existence of jockeys and thought the horses just ran around the track of their own accord. I was like, wow, those are some pretty smart horses! This happened this decade and I'm in my 30s.

We need just one more Bond or Mission Impossible movie but with Nathan Fielder as the villain.

Musk saw the Tumbler from the Nolan Batman movies and thought, "I'll recreate this but worse."

Rewatching the Mission Impossible movies before the last one, and it's kinda hilarious how 2nd movie's plot is basically "Covid was an engineered bioweapon so Bill Gates could profit from vaccines."

Uh there might be something wrong with me :(

In these dark times, it’s great to come together and find something we can all take joy in.

I might've seen an elderly man caught in a gift card scam IRL. He wandered around a Dollar General and tried to buy his fourth (!) Google Play gift card, but the cashier refused. He'd already returned the 3 others, claiming they didn't work. Didn't realize what I was seeing until later. Poor guy.
