Let’s be clear: ICE injured and detained the president of SEIU California for peacefully observing. ICE picked the wrong side. The wrong state. The wrong person. and the wrong union. David Huerta stood up. And now 750,000 SEIU workers are standing up behind him. seiuca.org/press-releas...

Well this couldn’t have come at a better time www.bbc.com/news/article...

TYRESE HALIBURTON AGAIN

Funniest basketball team of all time.

Organizing is an art, not just a science

More people should watch this movie.

After a 196-day strike 2,400 therapists, psychiatric nurses, social workers and psychologists at Kaiser Permanente have won big. The Southern California mental healthcare workers won 20% raise over four years, a $2,500 signing bonus, and more. truthout.org/articles/kai...

This is so infuriating. Fuck ChatGPT. Don’t use this site for anything.

To remember a perfect 5th, think of the first two notes of the Star Wars theme. For a perfect fourth, think of the Star Wars theme but subtract a step. For an octave, you’re gonna wanna do two Star Wars themes in a row then subtract a step. For a minor second, just think 1/7th of a Star Wars theme

Most points in Wolves franchise history with 143

NINE HUNDRED NINETY FOUR TO ONE

The New York Knicks led 111-94 with 6:26 left to play The Indiana Pacers outscored the Knicks 31-14 to close regulation. That's right... 31 points in almost 6.5 minutes.

I was about to be bummed that Reggie Miller wasn’t a part of this Knicks/Pacers matchup.

Don’t know if Aaron Gordon starting this game 7 despite straining a hamstring last game is making me more or less nervous.

My 19 mo nephew and I love going through Richard Scarry books. Just the best.

Ladies and gentlemen the weekend

“Marco, I want you in there as Jean Valjean, and give us your full energy on ‘Look Down’—remember, chest voice, not head voice! You’re a prisoner, for goodness sake, not Patti LuPone,” said the visibly anxious president theonion.com/trump-c...

THE JULIAN STRAWTHER GAME I was doing a lot of yelling and clapping alone in my apartment during this game…

David Zaslav was paid $51.9 million last year.

It is the first original movie that has managed to cross the $200 million mark since "Coco" in 2017. The last time a live-action movie accomplished this feat? The last movie to do so was "Gravity" Read More: www.slashfilm.com/1857902/sinn... www.slashfilm.com/1857902/sinn...

I’m so sucked into the NBA playoffs this year. I started live-calling some the games for my bf on the phone while he’s working. So I think I’m about a year away from an espn contract for commentary.

PUNCH UP NOT DOWN PUNCH UP NOT DOWN PUNCH UP NOT DOWN PUNCH UP NOT DOWN PUNCH UP NOT DOWN PUNCH UP NOT DOWN PUNCH UP NOT DOWN PUNCH UP NOT DOWN

Got to room 46 in Blue Prince! Also, my dad just texted to tell me he’s now hooked on this game, too. I have such fond memories of sitting with him playing Myst when it first came out.

oh well as long as the DOJ insists. who's in charge of the DOJ again i have the memory of a central florida meth head

My mom has been making and sending emotional support chickens to many friends and family members. I got mine just in time for the election in November 😂😭

……… yeah when you really start tallying up the Wellness Quack Body Count it is really, really, really, really bad

1) USPS did not lose $3.3b. It provided a service that cost $3.3b. *The Pentagon* loses you money, however, every time it accidentally yeets a fighter jet off the deck of a carrier

Road House. (Point break is fun but this is the superior movie imho) Pain don’t hurt.

First look at the poster for the 30th anniversary 4K restoration of Showgirls 💃 The film will return to theaters in the UK, US and selected international territories from June 6 courtesy of Park Circus Films

It was a surreal pleasure to play the US premier of this beautiful work by Rufus Wainwright after being a fan of his work for decades. Oh, also JANE FONDA narrated and seeing her work close up was unforgettable.

I didn’t give a wit about new pope coverage, but the first American pope being a man with Black ancestry born in Chicago by way of New Orleans by way of Haiti. Names his self after the pope who condemned slavery? In the Trump era? Oh, baebae, I am HERE for it. www.wwltv.com/article/news...

Absolutely Brutal.

🚨 music mentioned 🚨

i hope Trump watches Escape from New York next and asks for Manhattan to be returned to its 1997 state: a walled maximum security prison containing only prisoners and the worlds they have made.

There was a rather charming trend in the 1910s to introduce the actor at the beginning of the film by showing them first in their street or evening clothes and then dissolving into the costume of their characters. Here we see recent stage import William S. Hart become a bandit in THE BARGAIN (1914).

Happy Mayday!

Happy Mayday everyone!
