At least there was an excuse to use this word.

Some of the gem we missed live for those of us who only watched the #Tonys prime-time telecast. #HarveyFierstein

Amplifying this. #TonyAwards

Auntie Mame quickly became one of my favorite classic movies once I finally saw it fairly recently. I can’t wait to watch it again just in appreciation of Pippa Scott. #RIP

No one portrays pigging out better than Charles Laughton. #HenryVIII #TCMParty

The “wedding night” attempt at sex ed is hilarious. And their interaction is all the more delicious knowing their real-life marriage. #ThePrivateLifeofHenryVIII #TCMParty

Charles Laughton may be my favorite actor of his time, and this—his Oscar winner—was one of the performances that did it for me. His range of characters within a short period—including #HenryVIII, Javert, Captain Bligh, and the glorious Ruggles of Red Gap—is unmatched. #TCMParty

Love the multiple marriage and family analogies. #TCMParty

Acton came up with the quote "absolute power corrupts absolutely" in 19th century but no one epitomizes it more than Henry the VIII three centuries earlier. #TCMParty

Claud Allister! It’s been years since I’ve seen Bulldog Drummond but you don’t forget a character actor like that. #ThePrivateLifeofHenryVIII #TCMParty

The resemblance is uncanny—and what an entrance. #HenryVIII #TCMParty

“‘Tis a pity to lose a head like this.” - Anne Boleyn #ThePrivateLifeofHenryVIII #TCMParty

But crazy entertaining. #ThePrivateLifeofHenryVIII #TCMParty

It is 100% carrying water for the opposition to participate in this collective delusion that Dems for some reason need to answer for every teen who throws a rock rather than hold the Trump admin accountable for intentionally creating chaos and breaking the law to stoke violence. They are in charge.

You have no obligation to defend or explain the behavior of random street protesters. We have a lawless government that is flagrantly violating its legal, moral, even philosophical obligations to us. Everything else is secondary

"Bothsidesism is 'suicide for democracy.' In becoming stenographers rather than reporters, journalists effectively legitimize MAGA lies, hate, and fascism as just one reasonable side of a debate in which all partisans are equally credible."

The disparity btwn what’s actually happening in Los Angeles and the way it’s being mischaracterized is one of the biggest stress tests of modern media in recent memory. Botted socials, AI, old clips, declining literacy—it’s like seeing a broken emergency response system hit by a storm.

if you've never heard it before, this is the best album ever youtube.com/playlist?lis...

There's a riot goin' on.

💔One of the Greatest musicians on Planet Earth 💔 Like Elvis was the King to Rock Sly was the King of Funkadelic You Rocked My World with your Funkadelic sounds Sly Stone💜💔 R.I.P🤘🏿🤘🏾🤘🏼

What we have seen in the last few weeks is the ending of the Elon Musk presidency and the start of the Stephen Miller presidency.

Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem called Los Angeles a “city of criminals” and not a city of immigrants. But like its name, Los Angeles is a city of angels. We protect and look out for one another, especially the most vulnerable.

Another ‘can’t wait ‘til Sunday night’ for us kids. Right up there with the Beatles.

I’ve been thinking about this lately with anything that has to do with the performing arts. #TonyAwards

Unreal! #TonyAwards

“Maybe Happy Ending” wins my award for the play I knew nothing about before tonight that I want to see. #TonyAwards

It was worth the wait. That show, man. If I’d seen only one new musical over the last decade, I’m glad #Hamilton was it. #TonyAwards

I like how they introduced all of the best play nominees. More than anything, the most important benefit of awards is to pique the interests of more audiences. I know at least one friend who’s seen “Purpose”! (And family members who have seen “Oh Mary”…) #Tonys

I was just saying how I wondered if there was anyone out there who could afford to do with the #Tonys what I do with the #Oscars, seeing the nominees in all the major categories. How many Tony viewers have seen two, three, five, ANY nominated Broadway shows over the past year?

I was today years old when I discovered there was another actress named Michelle Williams. #Tonys

Time for the #Tonys. Good thing this is the awards ceremony happening at this time and happens to take place in New York…

Lots of talk today about the demise of BlueSky. For whatever it's worth, it's been a boon to indie publishers like us. Twitter and Facebook have pretty much silenced us, so the engagement here has, and continues to be, wonderful.

I've made this point multiple times before but if Bluesky wants to grow, the things they need aren't opinion pundits but accounts that publish new information. That's breaking news reporters, politicians and stuff like official organization accounts that publish official statements.

Dissent IS patriotic

Actually it must be allowed, as has been laid out in the very first amendment of the Constitution

Don't miss that the President of the United States is saying he thinks the situation in LA is now under control with existing forces.⬇️ That means there's no legal or policy basis to actually federalize (read: politicize) the National Guard.

Nothing like getting sanctimonious law and order lectures from Republicans who refused to vote convict Trump after 1/6.

Every accusation is a confession

What’s happening in LA is an a good reminder of how ever more fragmented our information landscape has become On Bluesky it’s almost entirely about executive overreach; on X it’s “LA is burning; deport them all”
