Oh, I am GETTING the #CuttersWay restoration. One of my favorite movies. John Heard is the lost 70s-80s leading man. Lisa Eichhorn should have been huge. Jeff Bridges is achingly pretty. Losers fighting the right fight even when the fix is all the way in. Haunts me.

“Stop honoring our dead. You’re making us look bad” is the new “suckers and losers.”

Rewatching #KidsInTheHall on Peacock and it’s baffling. Words like “f-g” and “f——t” are bleeped when Buddy Cole uses them to self-identify. But Mark McKinney’s racist cab driver uses them as slurs un-bleeped. Genuinely suspicious.

The MAGA who regret voting for Trump, will 100% vote for the next Trump regardless of how much of a racist bigot he is.

They haven't actually learned their lesson. They're just mad they're getting hurt too.

These people didn't vote FOR Trump, they voted AGAINST vulnerable communities.

The SAVE Act and its more extreme version, the SAVE America Act, could shut millions of eligible citizens out of our democracy.

Apologizing for voting Trump is meaningless. Sorries are meaningless. I don't care if you were tricked you became a Nazi. You now carry that for the rest of your life. All that's left is to atone. Now that you know better, do better.

Trump calling up all these reporters after over a decade of calling them fake news, combined with the way they are rolling over for him like lapdogs because they got their precious “access” should make you sick to your stomach.

These guys were selling t-shirts until they needed a war to cover up the intentional damage they did to the economy and the president's involvement in a pedophilia scandal.

That the “protect women’s sports” crowd thinks Trump joking about how the gold-winning #USWomensHockey team didn’t deserve to come to the White House is hilarious says it all. Republicans hate women and trans people. It’s all about the bigotry.

TODAY: We posted about MAGA Republican state Rep. Susan Lynn posting that her son just got called up and deployed after Trump & Bibi started this war with Iran.

FLASHBACK — 2020: Susan posted thanking Trump for “not plunging my son and daughter-in-law into another war” 👇🏽

I will never get used to the disdain our country holds for brown and Black children.

From Palestine to Iran to Sudan, we normalize the destruction of schools and hospitals and daycares. We reduce children to death tolls and their futures to rubble with no consequence or second thought.
