- Hoping for some classic Raimi #sendhelp
- A lot of content creators have politics as crazy as professional athletes do, just in the opposite direction.
- Everything in Minnesota is terrible and Trump needs to be stopped. But seeing the Left take that and try and turn it into grist for separate political goals like new constitutions is also ghoulish.
- He was in a really good one that came out last Spring. In wide release!
- What I’m most hoping out of the He-Man movie is that he tells the Eternians he is a human and they hear it as heman and that’s how he gets his name.
- In the last decade ????
- I do think I would have respected Marty Supreme a tiny bit more if they had gone for the vampire ending.
- The reason the DSA will never achieve its goals isn’t because they’re impractical or ill thought out, it’s because they’re run by crazy people.
- My main takeaway from doom scrolling all day are the number of people looking for groups to blame all of their problems and it’s not just the rascists or the right.
- They believe that because that’s what the electorate said in all exit polls and also that the fascism elements weren’t as important. We can ignore what they said and try to fight the last battle over again but I don’t see it working.
- Bluesky gonna Bluesky
- The problem here and with Morris’ piece is the risk of replaying 2020-24 over again. The countries’ natural reaction to Trump does not mean they don’t want the reform the senate worked on in 23-34.
- "I spent much of 2025 pointing out that political pundits were misreading immigration and effectively ceding ground to Trump. This argument was controversial when I started making it. Now it is undeniable," writes @gelliottmorris.com. www.gelliottmorris.com/p/ice-is-a-7...
- I’m so excited for the first FCBD offering from Amp Comics, our continuation of the 80s staple Greatest American Hero, with a fantastic cover by David Mack! I can’t wait for people to be able to see this.
- At the comedy show.
- I would rather not cut off Medicaid or SS funding or FDA inspection just because the WH sucks.
- Reposted by Joshua StarnesSaw something similar (on a much smaller scale) last night in SF. A Nurse and Rabbi excellent speakers. DSA rep was cravenly trying to get signups and attacking Mayor Lurie. Not to mention being an arsonist returning to the ash pile of their efforts.
- Maybe no one will want Greenland anymore after this
- There needs to be a bunch of investigations of ICE in the next admin and people need to go to jail.
- Do we?
- That would make it less likely for impeachment to actually happen. Performative resistance will not help us.
- It was sadly clear a year ago this is what was going to happen. A lot of people said we were being dramatic.
- I don’t know, voters in exit polls said pretty clearly they didn’t care about dangers to democracy only price.
- A lot of leftist taking Trump’s brazenly illegal invasion of Venezuela as the perfect time to reiterate their attacks against Kamala Harris. Which tells you all you need to know about the left and their true goals.
- People who think like this are a big part of the problem and actively support people like Trump who benefit from apathy.
- The message America was always awful actively turns away voters and puts them into the arms of Trump. People who talk like this are Trump supporters.
- So obviously all the bluster about Iraq being a mistake was just about not stealing their oil while we were there.
- I usually don’t get too crazy over impeachment talk because it’s more about posture than reality. But if the Dems do take the House in 26 they really do have to file Articles over Venezuela.
- I’ve tried real hard with Letters From An American but every time I read it, it sounds like someone took the days Discover tab from Bluesky and feed it into ChatGPT. It totally unrelated news I will be launching my politics Substack next week.
- No.
- imagine giving backshots on the Don Callis bed 😂😂😂 #AEW #wrestlesky 🤼♂️
- In general I make it a rule to never look at someone’s list of best films of the year and say ‘man what are you thinking?’ because I think your list is your list. But sometimes you guys make it really hard.
- Bari Weiss and her ilk remind me of a number of people I have worked with who’s only real skill was selling themselves.
