@rmayemsinger.bsky.social Hi Randi - I just noticed that you're a screenwriter. I've had an idea for a movie for about twenty years and I don't know what to do with it. I haven't seen it anywhere else. I don't know how to write a scrip. If you don't mind me asking for advice, what should I do?

Hell yes he should!

In response to pressure exerted by Trump and Elon Musk, Republicans have cut $190 million for 𝗰𝗵𝗶𝗹𝗱 𝗰𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲𝗿 𝗿𝗲𝘀𝗲𝗮𝗿𝗰𝗵 from the government funding bill. FUCK THOSE GODDAMN BASTARDS. 🤬

H/t @kylekulinskifromx.bsky.social

Under Chair Lina Khan, the FTC just voted to ban junk fees in hotels and live-event ticketing. This is exactly what government working for the people looks like. The lone no vote against this rule? Trump's pick for FTC Chair Andrew Ferguson. The contrast couldn't be clearer.

Somehow, after all these years, the sheer vacuousness still floors me.

From the Donald Tusk the Prime Minister of Poland

Yes, "flawed" in that the entire basis for the film was straight fiction.

Fascinating how this is coming out AFTER the election www.nytimes.com/2024/12/02/u...

Reminder that the woman accusing Pete Hegseth of assaulting her is a Republican, and the incident occurred at a Republican conference. She was there with her husband. Pretty difficult set of circumstances to dismiss as a witch hunt but seems like Republicans are going to try.

That’s serious political courage.

This is correct

Tried to warn them they weren’t gonna stop at abortion

QUESTION: Hannity says Joe Biden lied when he said he would never pardon Hunter. But Hannity is divorced. So when he vowed to stay with his wife until death did them part, was he lying, or did circumstances change?

The Hunter Biden story is a perfect encapsulation of what’s wrong with American media: Is it a story? Sure. But every newspaper in America devoting front page headlines to Hunter fucking Biden while Trump appoints a cabal of rapists, racists and con-men to positions of enormous power is MADNESS.

IYKYK 🤭

Call me crazy, but I think Justin Sun, a Chinese national being prosecuted for fraud by the SEC, sending Trump $18 million should be a bigger story The direct enrichment of Trump by a foreign national weeks before he takes office has merited no coverage in the NYT or Washington Post

BREAKING: House Speaker Mike Johnson announces that male Republicans neutered by Donald Trump may continue to use the men's bathrooms.

Some Congressperson should read the House Ethics Committee Report about Matt Gaetz into the record. Why has no one done that yet? Is there a good reason?
