But above all else... why did the BBC and BAFTA chose to leave that in?

Why would you broadcast that moment?

What possible gain could that have except direct a shit-ton of abuse at a disabled person and exacerbate racial trauma for millions of people?

What a fucking disgrace.

Really incisive and nuanced thread here regarding disability, John Davidson , Michael B Jordan , Delroy Lindo and the BAFTAs . Please watch Sinners , I Swear , and John’s Not Mad.

Thank you @i-am-zagreus.bsky.social

I honestly can’t remember, it was so long ago. Just that we built it up so much to him, telling him that apparently this film was ‘redefining cinema’ etc etc and he was …massively underwhelmed 🤣

The funny thing is, that genuinely made me feel sad, like I’d failed you in some way 🤣🥺
I did like it. A lot. But I saw it on the back of HUGE hype and expectation. And we took our son, who we thought would love it but hated it. That definitely had an effect. It shouldn’t have but it did!

Internal White House meetings going on, like, "Hopefully the racism will distract from the pedophilia which will distract from the killings which will distract from the pedophilia again which will distract from the economy which will distract from the pedophilia a third time"

The Founders (rightly) thought financial corruption was so concerning they banned it in the Constitution three separate times: the two emoluments clauses, and the only named impeachable offense besides treason.

Starting in 2017, America decided it just kinda didn't matter anymore, whatcha gonna do.

in the plus side, watching the president of the United States destroy the entire geopolitical order because he didn't get a shiny award has successfully cured all my hangups about subtle character motivation in writing

More than 200,000 Danish citizens have signed a petition to buy California as a response to Trump’s attempt to take Greenland.

They say they will provide Californians with “rule of law, universal health care, fact-based politics, and a lifetime supply of Danish pastries.”

When he said “no casualties” he meant no casualties that he cares about.

MTG on the capture of Maduro:

“If prosecuting narco terrorists is a high priority then why did President Trump pardon the former Honduran President who was convicted…for trafficking hundreds of tons of cocaine into America?…This is what many in MAGA thought they voted to end.

Boy were we wrong.”
