The people who feel entitled to critique protest methods or phrases interestingly don’t use their power to just…do the thing.

I forgot to post this last night but here is the updated #HorrorWatch list on @letterboxd.social. Twins of Evil was a good one. It was at turns spooky, sexy, goofy and gory, a perfect mix that made for a fun group watch.

I am actually dead serious about this: riding Amtrak is a delightfully social experience; I have had so many really meaningful conversations with total strangers and for the most part you can also get up and walk away if you’re done talking, which you can’t do on a plane. It’s perfect.

RFK saying he “never saw kids with ___ (medical condition)” in the 1940s like ok buddy you were a badly behaved child not an expert diagnostician, your family literally lobotomized your own aunt for having symptomatic depression, and we didn’t have tests and treatments for most things in the 1940s

Last April, South LA Cafe owner Joe Ward-Wallace approached two LAPD officers about a cop he saw driving recklessly in the community. In response, Joe was assaulted and arrested by the cops, denied bail, and held in solitary confinement for days. He is now suing LAPD.

a lot of dem thought leaders will take this to mean that the problem’s solved without doing any reflection on why it was a problem in the first place

"The anti ai discussions on here are getting unhinged!" I disagree. The techies declared war on artists. I think our response is understandable. "It can do good things!" Ok then rein in your man Sam. I'm not taking being called "unhinged" by anybody who brings up the basilisk very seriously tho.

Democrats did not run on Defund. Sometimes I think that Democratic voters themselves don't know this. They ran AGAINST Defund.

For nearly 60 days, no food, fuel, medicine or other items has entered the Gaza Strip, blocked by Israel. Aid groups are running out of food to distribute. Markets are nearly bare. Palestinian families are left struggling to feed their children.

"Why aren't young people protesting?" Consider—because they all got their shit rocked by police and prosecutors last year trying to stop a genocide, and you abandoned them.

submitted 13 hours ago • 130 comments

Worse than abandonment: you sided with the fascists who beat and jailed them. You praised the corrupt & complicit leaders of the genocide, and mocked the student protesters. You called for their imprisonment when their protests against US-sponsored slaughter, made your drive inconvenient or delayed.

going through another round of "but the slogan was stupid" about defund the police, and, i wanna suggest something: picture that there was no slogan. no particular phrase that just entered the public consciousness. there was just the protests against police brutality. what do you think changes?

Absolutely right. If you know how movie financing works you know they were popping champagne corks Monday morning at the studio, and that was without this insane second weekend. All this “concerned” coverage is bullshit.

If you imagine a scenario of victory over Trumpism, ask yourself if the image in your head might be related to a movie or a distant decade. If so, put it on the shelf. Make room for the harder work of thinking in the real and the present.

Hey, all you men that ARE okay? You need to actually engage w these fuckers who AREN'T and get them to see some fucking common sense & realize women are human beings worthy of respect. Which is the bare minimum. It shouldn't fall to us to fix the problem a whole lot of you have with this reality.

This is exceptionally well reported: in case after case Trump has surrendered long time US interests to favor Russia and gained nothing in return. When you put it all together it a staggering surrender. www.nytimes.com/2025/04/26/u...
