It can be fun to watch a bad movie and marvel at the rainbow of bad choices and missed opportunities that all coalesce into one awful brew. But sometimes the bear gets you, and you end up watching something so terrible that the people responsible can’t be punished enough. I give you: THEODORE REX.

Folks, read this excellent essay detailing what happened in the hearing about transgender people in military service. Rude Pundit says Judge Reyes refused "to buy into the cruel fantasy world that Trump and most of the right in this country demand we all live in."

This guy's a total dumbass and definitely Phony-Tough - fated for an ass-whoopin'...

Another MAGA Asshole™️®️

We are a rogue nation.

Melissa Harris-Perry. Tiffany Cross. Alex Wagner. Joy Reid. I'm sure there's a pattern here but I can't quite put my finger on what it could be. (/s)

If you want an arm gesture to indicate your loyalty to a group or movement, you can make up your own. We'd've thought it was dumb, but you don't have to do the Sieg Heil. If you keep doing a Nazi salute, then we're gonna go ahead and call you "Nazis" because, clearly, that's who you are.

The Trump post office takeover story has this extraordinary line: "according to six people familiar with the plans, who spoke on the condition of anonymity out of fear of reprisals." That shit sounds like it's out of some totalitarian regime, not the United States. wapo.st/4309Ysp

You’re either with the Nazis or against the Nazis. Those are the only choices.

It's really disheartening to be so ashamed of one's own country.

"A deeply earnest musical that isn’t afraid to look silly—and does, quite often. 'Strangers in Paradise' wants to speak to the young while addressing hot-button issues, a formula that is catnip for us because there are so many ways for it to go wrong..."--Shane Wilson (@shanewilson.bsky.social)

Meanwhile, we await what a heroin addict who fondles bear corpses has to say about the effectiveness of vaccines.

CSI:MUSK "Elon, there's so much pushback on Making America Great Again." "Yes, Donny. *puts on sunglasses* I did Nazi that coming." YEEEAAAAAHHHHHH! *Won't Get Fooled Again plays - ironically, now*

This is why you fight these cowards. The moment you stand up to them, they crumble. Homan has nothing. The Fourth Amendment is clear and I am well within my duties to educate people of their rights. He can threaten me with jail and call names all he wants. He’s got nothing else.

Currently working on an essay about the concept of a “perfect album” if there even is such a thing. What does that mean to you? What qualifiers would you put in place? What are the criteria that full length album of music must meet in order to be considered a perfect album?

NOT a part of this week's Kevin Willmott Film Festival, but worth a mention. Still very relevant in terms of current events, but very hard to find - never had a proper release. Prime for (re)discovery, if there's adventurous film festival/repertory programmers still left... youtu.be/aPbFsepkbmM?...

“The reason we face the worst is because it helps us imagine the best.” What a fantastic, hopeful read. Treat yourself to this, and then spread it around.

Woof

I seriously think he's just gonna hand the keys over to Putin.

things are going great!

"Pour that funky coffee, White Boy..."

It is perfectly legal to know your rights and to educate others about them, too. EVERYONE in the United States, citizen or not, has rights. I will not allow this administration to intimidate us from helping you know about them. Here’s our shareable guide ⬇️: (pt. 1/2)

Gonna be really hard to teach these lit courses there if you can't talk about systemic racism. From the Naval Academy course catalog:

I'm guessing he was getting an idea of how to set things up in the United States.

If I were a Democrat in Congress, I'd be calling every man who kowtows to him "Trump's bitch," as in "He's Trump's bitch. I am not Trump's bitch." And then I'd say, "And Trump's just Elon's bitch, so you're the bitch of a bitch. Now fuckin' censure me, bitches."

I know a lot of people who voted for Trump are getting hurt by his policies, and it sucks because kids and others are hurt, too. But I have just one question before I decide whether to be kind and forgiving to them: "Would you vote for him again?" Because I guarantee more than half would.

"Welcome to My World, Rudie..."

They are openly committing crimes, and the only reason they would do that is if they are absolutely not going to allow a Democrat to ever be president again. If you thought there was an outside chance you could be thrown in prison, you wouldn't brag about breaking the law.
