This is straight up nazi shit. The nazis published propaganda on Jewish crime. If this were blackcrimeuk or immigrantcrimeuk everyone would see it for the bigoted shit that it is.

Pretty sure most people are missing the boat on why SINNERS is killing it at the box office. It's not the horror - horror tends to do well and there's better horror movies than this - it's the sex. It's the raw, filthy, sweaty, hungry, wet, horny-as-shit fucking. Ain't called "BLEEDERS," is it?

ICE Agents Wait At Edge Of Delivery Table To Deport Newborn

Forgive the earnest post here, but one year ago this week, Global Tetrahedron took over The Onion. We've since brought back the paper and ONN, dramatically increased revenue, and hired more writers and artists. But most importantly, as other places debased themselves, we refused to bend the knee.

Once again Cherokee Nation and other Oklahoma tribes are having to step in and feed non-Native children because of Kevin Stitt's refusal to accept programs that would help Oklahoma's low-income children. 😡 www.newson6.com/story/680c12...

Will Forte says he’s thrilled that ‘COYOTE VS ACME’ will be getting released. “I’m gonna promote the crap out of it, just tell me what you want me to do and I’ll go, I’ll do whatever — go to the top of Mount Everest, I’m there.” (Source: www.hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie...)

Happy Independent Bookstore Day! Read Maris's piece, then go show your local indie bookstore some love. They're so much more than places to get books--they are places to engage with ideas and others in your community. Staffed by actual humans to help you find the books you didn't know you needed!

Le DVD de Mission Cléopâtre était par exemple un BIJOU, rempli de blagues dans les menus, et bourré de bonus absurdes, comme la Director's Cut qui était une version du film en accélérée, sauf les passages avec Alain Chabat 😂

NEW: Avelo Airlines is facing backlash after it signed an agreement to carry out deportation flights. A letter from Connecticut’s AG cited ProPublica’s reporting on ICE Air flight attendants, who said it was unclear how shackled detainees would get off a plane in an emergency. By @mckenziefunk.com

Yes, go buy books elsewhere tomorrow (and every day you can).

Aka arguably the largest intentionally facilitated product downgrade in the history of capitalism www.theverge.com/news/655930/...

Elon backtracked on DOGE savings goals from $1 trillion to $150 billion. But watchdogs report only $12.6 billion in verifiable savings. That represents just 0.173% of the U.S. federal budget for 2025. We're losing vital government services for basically nothing in return.

Si vous me suivez ici, vous savez sans doute à quel point ce lieu et le précieux travail de ses équipes comptent pour moi. C'est un bastion de la cinéphilie francilienne bien sûr, mais aussi un lieu de rencontres et d'échanges dont la pérennité est aujourd'hui menacée : sauvons le Forum des Images !

Ryan Coogler’s ambitious “Sinners” is the director’s first entirely original film—a challenge that he had been afraid to confront. “I realized it’s now or never for this,” he tells David Sims:

Tomorrow, a certain online mega-retailer launches a book sale, just days before Indie Bookstore Day on 4/26. This is no coincidence; Bookstore Day is one of the largest revenue drivers for indies. Indies need our support to thrive & build community spaces for all...mega-retailers do not.

In 2000, John Waters donated 372 pieces of his art collection to the Baltimore Museum of Art. They named a rotunda after him in their gallery. He requested an all-gender restroom be named for him instead. #BOTD

People experiencing pregnancy loss in states with abortion bans told us they wished they had known what to expect and how to advocate for themselves. We created this guide for anyone who finds themselves in the same position. (Published Dec. 2024)

Trump is sending a Russian scientist who created a breakthrough cancer detection microscope back to Putin's Russia. She was a dissident who criticized Putin and now will be in danger.

This is deranged. Jan. 6 defendants were repped by one of the best public defender offices in the U.S. They were more likely to be released pretrial & got comparatively light sentences. SCOTUS threw out a bunch of convictions, which almost never happens. They got gold-plated due process!

NEVER ever thought I’d be a librarian for PBS 🤯 And now I’ve had the honor of being Resident Librarian for PBS and PBS Kids for a year 💙🩵

Stop calling it deporting, so MAYBE more Americans will get it. "Deporting" is sending someone back, after due process, to the country they came from, where they arrive a free person. This is human trafficking to a foreign torture prison for the rest of their lives. GET THE LANGUAGE RIGHT.

This is the hero I've been talking about speaking with. It's my third time interviewing him. I hope it's not my last.

Anyways, here’s what the actual “Ultimate English Wizard” has to say on trans issues

What a shitty framing in the article. Most of us in other parts of the world would sell an organ to have the kind of government support for research that the USG provides. There’s no “dependency” - it is one of the best uses of taxpayer money.

“young men don’t have positive role models anymore” listen Sinners is 138 minutes long and I think at least 25 of those minutes are taken up with explaining how and why to eat pussy

This is all fascinating. I had no idea Ryan Coogler negotiated a contract where he kept final cut, first-line profits, and the rights to SINNERS after 25 years. But the idea of studio execs FREAKING OUT about it ("What if EVERY in-demand creative wants rights over their own work?") is even better.

BREAKING: SCOTUS orders the government not to remove anyone from the United States under Trump’s Alien Enemies Act proclamation who is a part of the potential class in the Northern District of Texas case until further order of the court. Only Thomas and Alito note their dissent.

My latest review. I’m mixed on “Sinners” but there are intriguing ideas and moments of awe.

Just a reminder that Trump/DOJ continuing to let Abrego Garcia sit in CECOT is *a crime*. Deprivation of rights under color of law is a crime. Was it an "error" at first? Maybe. But once they were aware of the error, and ordered by a judge to return him, and then refusing, it's willful 1/

One of my favorite places in the world is having a tough run of luck. I understand this isn’t a good time for anybody but here’s how to help if you can and are so inclined.

Israel murdered this beautiful soul. Remember Fatima Hassona. Watch and spread the film "Put your soul on your hand and walk". And never stop fighting the mass murdering death machine that is the Israeli state. She was 25.

“THE TRASH CINENA FANDOM IS HEALTHIER THAN THE CLASSIC CINEMA FANDOM BECAUSE THEIR AFFECTION IS OFTEN ROOTED IN HONEST ASSESSMENT OF THEIR TASTE AND A LACK OF VANITY, NOT CARING FOR OR DEMANDING EXTERNAL VALIDATION, WHICH IS A CONSTANT REFRAIN IN OLD HOLLYWOOD CIRCLES…”

Just so we’re clear, everybody calling Kilmar Abrego Garcia a “terrorist” or a “gang member” are lying, and they know they’re lying, and they repeat it for purposes of confusing people who don’t follow this stuff closely into accepting what was done to him.

YOU CAN COUNT ON ME Criterion edition in July!! With a commentary track from Kenny Lonergan! It only took 25 years but it’s happening!

Not as high on Ryan Coogler’s SINNERS as everyone else. But it’s a dizzying swing that spins so out of control it’s sort of a marvel to behold. My review via @ebertvoices.bsky.social.

Kilmar Abrego Garcia has been sitting in a Salvadoran prison for over a month because the Trump Admin made a mistake. Now, the Admin is defying SCOTUS & refusing to bring him back. If we allow Trump to violate Kilmar's rights, none of our rights are safe. Kilmar is all of us.

Constituents to Chuck Grassley: "Are you bringing back that guy from El Salvador?" Senior Citizen: “If I get an order to pay a ticket to pay $1200 and I just say ‘no’, does that stand up? Because he just got an order from the Supreme Court and he just said ‘screw it’” “I’M PISSED!”

This was my classmate. He was a student in my ethics class, and we used to sit next to each other. Most dedicated person in the class to legitimate justice for all people. He legitimately cared. I am so horribly heartbroken

Actress and Brody South Dakotee superfan Kelly Marie Tran is back to promote her new movie “The Wedding Banquet.” Then, Emily formerly of the SpaceX girl department and the mysterious Randall Handler drop in to discuss their things!

One of hundreds of people abducted by ICE and sold to slavery in El Salvador was a 19 year old with no criminal record in the US or Venezuela and no tattoos of any kind. An ICE kidnapper who grabbed him outside his house said, "He's not the one." The other said, "Take him anyway." So they did.
