Today’s protests and rebellions would be wise to take note of the seventeenth-century radical-by-chance who led a frenzied mob against Spanish Habsburg rule and turned a spontaneous riot into an enduring inspiration for the upheavals to come.

I've ran into him every day of the fest and he's at my hotel. My partner correctly identified that most of my dislike is how similar we are; fair.

Clearly it was a terrible idea to impose pressure on the White House on this matter, look at all the nothing it did, @mattyglesias.bsky.social was so right

Just ran into Anthony Fantano in the VIP during the Charli/Troye set at Primavera and in a sign of personal growth did not bring up any atrocious album review beefs

this is like drake and kendrick lamar but they're both drake

I'm sneaking glimpses of the US melting down in between watching a Spiritualized show in Barcelona. What a very specific vibe.

The new Holy Father has performed his first documented miracle

OH MY FUCKING GOOOODDDDDDDDD MATSUNO YOU ARE THE ETERNAL GOAT

We’re at the closest hotel to the fest and are hearing soundcheck already, v excited

Im voting for Zohran

just a reminder that the dem who ran this campaign unseated a 3x gop incumbent who had never won by less than double digits

"It's called 'literary sci-fi,' T — it's when you rewrite a Twilight Zone episode with a thesaurus and sell it to a bunch of fanooks who think 'Heinlein' is a cheap beer"

This is a good example of how Democrats don't have to settle for a "least bad" option. Compared to another blue state gov whose likely running in 2028, Pritzker is imagining a country we want, rather than Newsom's diet fascism

Idk what field mics Apple is using but that Vivas HBP sounded like Neil Peart hitting a woodblock

Not that I'm complaining but: juiced balls found their way to LA for this series lol

As NYWFP works to consolidate support around its slate of candidates, we're proud to rank @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social #1 🥳 To give voters clear guidance, we're ranking a full slate of 5 candidates. When we unite, we can defeat Cuomo & elect a mayor who fights for us. Let's get this done!

kind of obsessed with 2025 pride merch...I'm calling it cowardcore.

Nathan Fielder is on CNN prefacing all his comments with “as a pilot…”

We're now 8 points away from sending Andrew Cuomo back to the suburbs.

No definite decisions made yet, but it's definitely getting to the point where whenever a tour is announced, I'm like "should we buy the LA shows or the NYC shows?" because we have no idea when we're moving back. Grizzly Bear's surprise announcement is proving difficult to decide

Just went to a screening of Walk Hard and in addition to running into @emla.bsky.social who with no pre-planning ended up in the seats directly behind us, John C. Reilly dropped by at the end and did a ~15 minute Q&A. Not a bad wrap on the holiday weekend

my lock screen reminding me that the vibes are in shambles tonight

open chart, keep scrolling down www.gelliottmorris.com/p/republican...

The Studio gives me as much anxiety as Severance does, just a different flavor. We started late and just watched ep 2 last night, and I was watching half of it through my fingers.

Truly wild that the Yankees rotation is missing the 2023 AL Cy Young winner and the 2024 AL Rookie of the Year and is somehow... good?

uhh let me be PLUR

And Day 3-

Primavera Sound set times are up, and I think I've got my days planned. This is a grid of like, my widest possible options, so some overlaps are easier than others. Day 1 actually doesn't have too many bad overlaps. (also lol @ set times at a Spanish festival)

The House bill increases funding for ICE but $45 billion which is 5 times their current budget of $9 billion. We are seeing the rise of a fascist police state with the ICE gestapo as its vanguard.

🎥 Recorded in January and just aired on RTE tv now. We are clearer than ever on who we are and what we stand for. We will have a short statement soon. FREE PALESTINE 🇵🇸

Let’s go Knicks

I just recently finished a Cheers rewatch (well, at least of the Sam & Diane seasons) and it was a reminder that I'm not sure there's ever been a TV character with a higher value-per-screentime ratio than Norm. So many eps where he'd have three lines, but it'd be the most memorable joke.
