This is what weak and insecure people think confidence looks like: buffoonish bluster and swagger, like a 12-year-old bully. It doesn‘t inspire trust or security. It inspires grave concern for the lives of the people serving our nation whose fate is in the hands of these overcompensating oafs.
what a crazy night for sam altman to be like "yeah we got that dept of war deal, and there's no moral concerns here"
Look where so many people falling for the excuse that “it was only locker room talk” has gotten us.
To have that much wisdom at that young of an age. Amazing, honestly.
You know the polling's bad when they're forced to admit aliens are real.
In a stunning turn of events, newest baby gets the nod from CineStory. Looks like I’m headed to Idyllwild in May! Thanks so much @cinestory.bsky.social for advancing this fun little script. Excited to join the CineStory family!
Matt Walsh • @MattWalshBlog • 39m X Having the halftime show for your biggest game of the year in a language almost none of your lifelong fans can understand, while waving the flags of countries that none them are from, is the biggest fuck you that l've ever seen a corporation give to its own consumers • 972 The Toon Libertarian * @ToonLibertarian X.com Unreal. I felt insulted and slightly threatened.
The softest people.
Just spitballing here, but maybe we should celebrate all this beautiful stuff and have a better country?
In case you were wondering, Bad Bunny isn't eligible to run for President.
... until 2032.
Mac Randolph RIP Alex Pretti, he was my Dads ICU nurse, he read my dad's final salut at the VA after he passed away. Never wanted to share this video but his speech is very on point. Also my Fathers final words to me was continue to fight the good fight. He would be honored in Alex' sacrifice, and ashamed of this current administration. In my Dads words I encourage you all to continue to "fight the good fight"

Thrilled to be a part of this year's cohort!
Let’s do this together. Let’s keep our hearts open, and let’s keep seeing each other, and let’s keep allowing ourselves to be seen."
To give ourselves fully to the world, even the parts of ourselves that we’re ashamed of, that we’re afraid of, that are imperfect. So, the people that we speak to... they can also learn to see themselves and fully accept themselves...
I still can't stop thinking about Chloe Zhao's acceptance speech.
"The most important thing of being an artist is learning to be vulnerable enough to allow ourselves to be seen for who we are, not who we ought to be...
A nice bit of encouragement from @theblcklst.bsky.social.

@franklinleonard.bsky.social following up so you know I didn't slack. Just over a year later, and this script just received an 8 on the Black List.

Please read this entire excellent piece by Caroline, which points out that a judge ordered the Feds (again) to stop doing **this exact kind of thing** and they are still continuing to do it all over Chicago
Ah, the false victory...
People going "America was always fascist" or "it's been like this since the 1980s" or making related claims don't seem to realize it, but they're telling everyone that nothing different is happening, nothing worse than usual, so if you weren't up in arms about eg 2013, you shouldn't be now either.
Next time an exec gives you the “too on the nose” note, just send them the lyrics to The Life of a Showgirl and tell them that’s no longer a thing.

Great thread.
And see... I was just telling people that the half season of him being evil was my favorite stretch of the show. He was cartoonish at times, sure. But I preferred the post-sex love/hate tension to them making puppy dog eyes at each other constantly.
I feel like Angelus has to be the consensus #1, I mean come on.
These people are insane.
Imagine going to a funeral and the eulogizer spends his time screaming about all the people hated by the man who just died.
These people have literally gone off the deep end if they think this is how decent human beings behave.
No worries, he'll change his mind on this the minute it becomes politically expedient for him to do so.
Oh my God, I'm dying... 😂
1. Do not obey in advance. Most of the power of authoritarianism is freely given. In times like these, individuals think ahead about what a more repressive government will want, and then offer themselves without being asked. A citizen who adapts in this way is teaching power what it can do.
