Post the same actor in two roles that show their range

what athlete's expression will stay with you the rest of your life?

Yknow what? I’ve been sitting on this for a decade because I’m not into punching laterally but I AM FINE with punching far right lunatics. Just a handful of short weeks before GamerGate started, Briana Wu, who I spoke to 0 times before this, sends me this *wild* ass email. 🧵

Bro looks like he had a two episode arc as a bad influence on one of the kids from Home Improvement.

Clinton Kill Count confirmed.

Right now Andrew Cuomo is at home crying like a little girl!

Oh so you don't have to spend millions on a liberal Joe Rogan or attack trans people or support genocide to win after all

One of the most interesting parallels in American life right now is WWE bending over backwards for the Saudis and Trump administration and watching their fans get gradually more uneasy with it, while AEW just grinds away and slowly grows as their talent wears Abolish ICE shirts on cable TV.

It's one of those things like "the velvet underground only sold 6,000 records but everyone who bought it started their own band" but for everyone who answered "yes" to this being given a national newspaper column

just tough sledding to see so many of the 20 best hitters on the planet in one game, hate to see it and etc

Early this year I watched every film I could find by dissident Iranian director Jafar Panahi - most of which are banned in Iran and/or were made 'illegally.' They served as great reminders that 1) a country is not its government and 2) creative avenues always exist in which to resist oppression.

If you were too young in 2003 here is what Bush told the American people: 1) The Iraq War won’t cost a lot of money 3) We won’t need a lot of troops 4) We’ll bring peace and freedom to Iraq 5) We’ll find WMDs 6) We’ll be welcomed as liberators 7) It will be easy 8) It won’t take long All lies.

If I get killed in a retaliatory terrorist attack, do not avenge me please I understand

hey panera can we have the lemonade that kills us again

It’s easy to lash out at Trump voters right now, but in their defense the Nelk Boys were really convincing when they said everyone should risk dying for Netanyahu to protect the integrity of high school girls volleyball

Beating the yankees feels like when you see a cop trip on the sidewalk

I know it's corny as hell, but I'm so happy to see a smiling Sammy Sosa in Wrigley Field. It's bullshit that it took us 20 years to get here, but I'm over the moon that it has happened. I can't overstate how important he was to my generation; simply put, he was larger than life, he was everything.

Sosa back in Wrigley reminds me of when I went to see a Lions game and it was Barry Sanders' first time back after the retirement/falling out. In both cases it took way too long and was horseshit it ever happened in the first place.

The repression of trans people is not, by and large, a grassroots outpouring of hatred from the American people. It's something that's been carefully planted and tended over years by a handful of media people and their pet reporters.

Joaders, as I stare down the barrel of 40, I'm seeing the results of mental stagnation on people my age and the long term results of it in people older than me. It's grim. People who fully stopped learning 20 years ago, and are just guttural, reactionary monsters now. AI is gonna turbocharge that.

Hello Clayton Kershaw, here are some Bible verses to consider writing on your hat tonight Exodus 23:9 Matthew 5:43-44 Hebrews 13:1-3

Hey there, quick reminder: DW Griffith was a racist who invented nothing The silent era lasted for four decades, give or take, and can’t be covered by watching three or four movies Ignoring the earliest projected cinema of the 1890s and 1900s hobbles knowledge of cinema generally

please don’t put in the newspaper that that i got swamp ass

Luke Easter career run. He was beautiful. His cards were all beautiful.

Please don't go Full Cole Irvin

best Simpsons headline?

Feels like watching my son pitch.

ESPN suspended me from Twitter for telling a creationist colleague that evolution was real.
