"He's been absent. I haven't seen him," said Snyder, an Army veteran. "He hasn't had a town hall. It's been a decade." Snyder said the last town hall Rep. Austin Scott held in 2015 was restricted to veterans only, and she wasn't invited despite her military service." www.13wmaz.com/article/news...

Ah yes the five genders

nypl book of the day This American Ex-Wife: How I Ended My Marriage & Started My Life Lyz Lenz Women initiate nearly 70% of divorces. Lyz Lenz, after her own marriage ended, argues that divorce can empower women, exposing flaws in American systems of power, justice, love and gender equality

I recently watched the same movie twice in one week; once at home and once in a packed theater. The film was exactly the same, but the different venues elicited very different responses. That led to this piece. I suppose the headline speaks for itself.

How long before MAGA accept that Trump is in office to drain American resources for his billionaire buddies and not to help ordinary Americans? www.cnn.com/2025/03/12/p...

Congrats to @mcuban.bsky.social for joining me in the @sxsw.com Hall of Fame — it was an honor to give him the award.

As Trump tries to dismantle the Department of Education, remember that his plan to cut the corporate tax rate to 15% would give the 100 largest corporations a tax cut larger than the entire department's K-12 budget. Really think about how twisted this all is.

I’m so grateful to have parents who made sure I got vaccinated.

If you love movies, I am begging you to watch more old movies, foreign movies with subtitles, genres you might think you don't like or aren't familiar with. If you're not doing these things you're missing out on some of the most incredible movies ever made. 🎥 #filmsky

Who agrees with AOC....

When I started screenwriting, I wrote in 3 Acts. I switched to 4 Acts just before my first sale. I was writing and teaching in 8 sequences before I knew that was even a thing. However you're writing today, it's likely now how you'll be writing tomorrow. Keep growing. Stay teachable. #scriptsky

Truth is rarely spoken by Kremlin insiders on Russian TV. But this is truth.

"The vaccination has stuff we don't trust," said the father of the 6-year-old girl who died from measles at the end of last month. Tom Bartlett visited with a family confronting an unthinkable tragedy:

Donald Trump just lashed out at Americans for not buying Teslas, saying they are “illegally” boycotting the company.

When MAGA Americans finally realize they too are victims of the criminality and predation they initially hoped would only be for those despised others (the immigrant, the gay, the brown, black, woke, the blue staters), then it will be a bridge too far. johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/if-trump-s...

Trump Says Recession Unfortunate But Necessary Step To Get To Depression theonion.com/trump-s...

As I watch Democrats fold on rights for marginalized groups, it kind of makes me want to scream. If you are willing to give any group up, I don’t trust you and I don’t want to know you.

There are dozens, sometimes hundreds of moments in a given day when I look around and I simply don't recognize this place anymore. It all seems terrifyingly foreign. Maybe you understand what I’m talking about. johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/the-americ...

It's official: The lunatics are now running the asylum.

Trump Recession Timeline: 1. This will be a Golden Age on Day 1! Prices will come down and economy will boom! 2. These policies won’t cause a recession. We know what we’re doing. 3. Ok, it will cause short-term pain but will be good in long term. 4. This is Biden’s recession!

NLRB employees line the sidewalk to welcome back Board Member Gwynne Wilcox at HQ this morning after a federal judge ordered her reinstatement. Trump fired Wilcox Jan 27 in what the judge ruled was an illegal removal.

A “we hate him too” sign was recently spotted at the San Francisco Tesla dealership which was likely placed by an employee. Love it.

“Deadly diseases don’t bother with borders; no wall will keep them out. If America stays the course, 'Something went wrong' will become the epitaph of a great country, one that once led the world in global health preparedness,” Craig Spencer writes:

I love to watch international travel shows. I was watching one last night about Switzerland. The American host was walking through a village and casually mentioned that some women in the country did not have full voting rights until 1990... WTF?

Folks, every administration assault on the law in this country is a test, an effort to see what they can get away with on a bigger, broader scale over time.

There's a fine line between not letting the horrible things get in the way of living a normal life, and ignoring the horrible things in hopes they'll go away—and too many people have catapulted past it.

There are times when you must speak, not because you are going to change the opposing side, but because if you do not speak, they have changed you.

I had to bring this here because it’s so good

Join us for our Texas Town hall! All are invited. Please share far and wide!

The rise of White Christian Nationalism under Bush. And the lingering fallout from Gingrich’s obstructionism and Limbaugh’s broadcasted lies - then just prototypes of strategies that Republicans would perfect since.

Today, more than 10,000 people across the United States and beyond Stood Up for Science. I feel deeply humbled, inspired, and energized—our work is far from over, but witnessing so many people unite to champion science and the hope it brings is truly incredible.

I can’t wait for you to all see what we made! #marvelstudios #thunderbolts #dialectcoach

Florence Pugh says #Thunderbolts is like an 'indie A24-feeling assassin movie with Marvel superheroes' "[It's] quite badass" (via Empire Magazine)

ICONIC: Yosemite National Park workers just hung an upside-down American flag—THOUSANDS of feet up on El Capitan. That’s not decoration. That’s a distress signal. They’re telling us the country is in danger. Are you paying attention? www.sfchronicle.com/outdoors/art...

Trump and Musk are dismantling our government and stripping away all the guardrails, convinced that we are too stupid, too fearful, too passive, too unknowing to successfully defy their hostile takeover. We need to prove them wrong.

Day 22 of action figures celebrating black character #BlackHistoryMonth All Ghostbusters are deeply loved but the most level headed and sensible was Winston Zeddemore. He was an invaluable addition, and while Ernie Hudson has a great career, this is my favorite character of his. Figure is Blitzway.

If you’re cheering for a South African sociopath to fuck over US military veterans then you should probably stop with that America first bullshit.

If you didn’t see #KamalaHarris’ brief speech at the #NAACPImageAwards, do yourself and your country a solid, go find the clip and get your mind right. #MyPresident
