Americans: please I'm begging you I can't afford my electric bill Republicans: we're giving the lieutenant who murdered 34 villagers at My Lai a Smithsonian exhibit ✊
Under my direction, the soldiers who fought at the Battle of Wounded Knee will keep their medals. This decision is final. Their place in history is settled.

So many people coping over this because it interferes with their narrative that Biden was a doddering old fool who gave Netanyahu everything he wanted. Maybe the fact that Netanyahu wanted the other guy to win should've been taken more seriously.
“The Situation Room connected the call. Biden jumped in. “Bibi, man, what the fuck are you doing?” He gripped the phone tight. “You think I’m Santa Claus? No Santa in Israel, pal.” theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0…

I'm from a very different part of western Mass that's 90% white and is one of the only communities in the state to vote for Trump three times. Nice to read a story about harmless lunatics instead of someone calling ICE on their landscaper

They think "secret" means politicians tenting their fingers and wearing the masks from Eyes Wide Shut and "public" means automatically brave and helpful. Which makes sense when everything about politics is a performance to them

People can offer whatever defenses of this they want, some of them are even valid. But imagine what all the pundits and posters would be saying if this was any normie Democrat. There would be a 1000 viral "UNIPARTY" / "this is why voting is pointless" tweets an hour
Mamdani: We also know the president not just as the leader of the country, but also as someone who has built quite a lot of housing in our city.

I can't imagine this is a big enough constituency to offset the losses but we'll see how it plays

This is how every podcast should work. Host or guest says something stupid, other one calls for a fact check, then the first person reads out loud how wrong they were. We could've stopped two Trump presidencies
one of the funniest clips is bobby lee telling andrew santino that "korea doesn't really have a history of oppression, we didn't have slaves" and andrew says ok let's google that and bobby recites "korea had the longest unbroken chain of slavery of any society in history"

It's a beautiful scene from a movie that suffers a little from being a part one. But the series as a whole is great. I get why people give them the side-eye now with JK Rowling's bullshit but I don't understand why at the time they didn't receive the same awards attention as LOTR

Genuinely surreal. They don't even add like a badass soundtrack, we just hear the sound of his breathing while he squirts off shots and admires the German craftsmanship (twice). It's like if this guy ran for Senate
The Blake Masters 2022 ad where he makes himself look like an insane person remains the worst ad I’ve ever seen

All the people who are currently saying they can't bring themselves to vote for a Democrat because they're being mean to a twitch streamer are implicitly accepting this as a trade-off
She came to the land of opportunity through a legal process like so many before her. Followed the rules. Showed up to an immigration appointment after the most devastating health event a woman can experience. Gets shackled like an animal. That’s our country now.

Democrats are pretty vocal about the fact that there's no endpoint in politics where we achieve utopia and can all put up our feet. It tends to be the left flank where you see the repeated complaint of "oh so every election is important and I have to keep voting until I die??"
The Dems genuinely thought that beating Trump would be an end of history moment that would sweep right-wing populism into the dustbin of history and restore American politics to some pre-polarization era. They had no clear conception of politics or governance beyond that fantasy.

The socialist left going all in on defending a rich dilettante twitch streamer while attacking an actual activist who's devoted her life to protecting people from gun violence gives you a pretty good window into their priorities
You can be snarky and deflect Shannon, or you could just deal with the issue: if you’re opposition to Piker is about his alleged antisemitism, which he denies, why have you said nothing about Loomer, who is a proud open Islamophobe? Not one word? Why not call out GOP bigots?

Had to say goodbye to this guy a few days ago. My travel buddy (and twitter avatar) for nine years. Very weird coming home without him there.
This is Dozer. When we adopted him from the shelter my roommate made disparaging remarks about his looks and THAT IS WHY HE IS MINE.

The governor built a concentration camp in a swamp and sold themed merchandise for it. He's decimated higher education and appointed a surgeon general whose mission is to spread diseases to school children. It's also muggy as shit and expensive
I'm very averse to anti-Florida rhetoric. There is a rich queer and multi-racial working class history here. Some of y'all give pretentious when you say you'd rather die than live in this state

3:10 to Yuma is both a great modern western and maybe the best both Crowe and Bale have ever been. Crowe is at his most devilishly charismatic and Bale exudes decency. Neither men ever feel like a cartoon.
Without saying Gladiator, name a great RUSSELL CROWE role...

I don't know what Carson Daly's up to these days but for this and "The Middle" by Jimmy Eat World debuting on TRL in the same year he should be considered a great patriot
25 years ago, Michelle Branch released ‘Everywhere’

Saving Face is an all time great rom-com, whose director later made The Half of It, which also deserves to be in the collection someday. Early Summer might be my favorite Ozu, one of his funniest. Would also snag The Rock and Chasing Amy in a heartbeat.
You are welcomed to the Criterion Closet but are only allowed to pick a film that has never been picked before. What are you taking home? (List in comments)

All else aside these dudes should not be making comedy skits. It's not a skill they have. Very good at harassing people though
Oops we thought this was Haley Stevens's office

Hollywood has a lot of problems but one thing it gets right is a social structure where Trump supporters live in fear of outing themselves and the loud and proud ones only have access to shitty jobs at Ben Shapiro's production company
