If Russia wants peace, they should end the invasion.

'Did you even say thank you?'

I have covered presidential politics for 40 years. This was the most juvenile display by a President and Vice President I have ever seen. Other presidents treated their enemies with more respect. This is a low point and a dark day for the US. Totally embarrassing.

It took seeing adult bullies to understand that my childhood bullies didn’t even really want to hurt me, they just wanted to feel powerful and how I felt about it wasn’t even in the equation. I can’t imagine someone not outgrowing that, but apparently it happens quite a lot!

Currently at the Minnesota Gopher’s basketball game against Northwestern. Down 0-10 during the first three minutes. Yikes!

Just wonderful writing on the 60 Minutes piece on President aMusk dismantling of USAID "The world's richest man cut off aid for the world's poorest people." Well done.

Two paths diverged in the woods and America took the psychopath.

As chilling a meme as I have seen. But I agree.

Horrible news for this country. One of the MANY terrible things to come in the next four years.

David Lynch said that filmmaking should be fun & joyful. Of course it can be hard work. Of course the work itself can encompass all kinds of pain & painful truth. But the act of creation itself should be full of joy. I think about that all the time. RIP David Lynch. You are immortal.

He "got stuck" watching Seth Meyers? I guess Musk wouldn't let him have the remote.

Zuck can call us virtue-signallers all he wants, but the fact is that he and Musk made their communities toxic, and we have several places to go, like here, that are not. Which is needed and useful, especially right now. This post is an official, bonafide ™Signal Of Virtue.

Game over. Congratulations, #MNVikings. See you next week against the Rams. You’ve officially blown it.

A lackluster first half of this #MNVikings game. Darnold is missing throws left and right. Huge mistake on the kickoff for the Vikings that cost us 3 points. In a game like this, the Vikings can’t afford these mistakes. Hoping for a better second half. #VikingsVsLions

Donald Trump will be president for another term. But he will forever be a convicted felon and an adjudicated sex abuser.

Happy New Year! I'm going to hold on tight to friends and family, and try to be more consistently kind with others, as we are all under siege this year (some of us in profound ways). It's going to be hard, but my wish for all of us is a 2025 of joy, success, and peace.

The posters for “Babygirl” and “Joker: Folie à Deux” are eerily similar. I can’t be the only one who’s noticed this!

Honest. Decent. Principled. A Lifetime of Selfless Service. #ThankYouJimmyCarter 🙏

James Mangold’s “A Complete Unknown” is a must-see, filled with great performances. Read my review here: boxd.it/8c0Ct3

Donald Trump tapped drug user Matt Gaetz, who was found by the House Ethics Committee to have had sex with a 17-year-old girl, as America's Attorney General. The country's top cop! If you're not outraged by such blatant hypocrisy, you're not paying attention.
