I’m in Florida too, going to see the #Mets play the Blue Jays on Sunday. And the weather isn’t the only thing in DC that I’m happy to be escaping for a few days.

He does like one aspect of the classic Heaven, though: the streets being paved with gold.

Kanopy has a great selection of movies. I recommend it whenever I have the chance.

I’m saving this for future reference. I’ve blocked some of the accounts, but it doesn’t get rid of them all.

“Putin is determined to curtail Ukraine’s sovereignty...keeping Ukraine within Russia’s sphere of influence and preventing its Euro-Atlantic integration is paramount,” says Lokker.

Some comments from me on the 4th anniversary of Russia's full-scale invasion.

I’ve never done drugs, but I had to go to rehab after watching it.

A great game! As an alum of both schools, my loyalties are somewhat mixed. But since my undergrad school was Duke, the Blue Devils get my primary allegiance. #Duke #UMich

I've been trying to think of a perfect description of Bessent. I think you've nailed it!

No disrespect to the citizens of the Dakotas, but the former governors of those states who are now in the Cabinet are clowns.

Rubio's dream of imperialism | Euractiv Rubio's message at the MSC was: In the name of a Western Christian civilisation, go out and conquer. For this he was applauded by Europeans

"Listening to Rubio, the reality is that the US seeks to move to a 19th-century concept of the world, as a duty to those who need to be rescued from non-Western civilisation, by force."

Casablanca is currently streaming on HBO Max, so if you subscribe to that service, you can watch it there.

It should be required viewing for everyone in the Trump administration and all Republican officeholders.

I've been wondering the same thing. For years, I've been paying almost all of my bills online through my bank and keeping digital copies of the bills in Evernote. I'm rethinking the need to do that, but old habits are hard to break.

In retrospect, Sean Spicer seems like a paragon of honesty.

I'm surprised he's only claiming that he's been 100% exonerated. I thought it was more like 500% or 1000%.

My #LastFourWatched are four #BestPicture nominees from the 1930s—Wuthering Heights (1939), Of Mice and Men (1939), Ninotchka (1939), and Five Star Final (1931). All were first-time watches for me. My favorites? Of Mice and Men and Five Star Final. #FilmSky 📽️

What’s wrong with him? Is he not from “central casting”?

The reality show president again displays his weird obsession with “central casting.”

I can’t honestly say I was a Bad Bunny fan before this, but I enjoyed his show. Why anyone would voluntarily opt to watch a Kid Rock show instead mystifies me.

My #LastFourWatched include three #BestPicture nominees, two old, one new—Five Star Final (1931), Love Affair (1939), and Sentimental Value (2025)—and a Mission Impossible movie that I hadn’t seen before—Mission: Impossible - Ghost Protocol. All good! #FilmSky

Don’t these people ever have a reflective moment when they think, “there but for the grace of God go I”?

What would be involved in “interplaying” with this movie? Walking around in 5-inch stiletto heels while you pretend to care about anything other than yourself?

And I’m betting the bust of JFK in the lobby will be replaced with one of Trump.

The Worst White House Aide in History — Rolling Stone For the good of the nation and his already tarnished legacy, Trump should fire Stephen Miller immediately

I can only hope that a day of reckoning for this loathsome man will come—and soon.
