45 years later, it's still one of the most influential modern horror films of all time. I wrote about THE EVIL DEAD, its humble beginnings, and its vast shadow over the genre for @inversedotcom: inverse.com/entertainment/th…

Time for another look at one of my favorite all-time shows, THE OUTER LIMITS. This time, for @reactormag, I explored eight episodes that, in a show often cynical about human nature, emphasized our penchant for empathy and self-sacrifice: reactormag.com/the-outer-lim…

Ossoff: Did Donald Trump win the 2020 election? Collins: There was a lot of doubt in that election… Ossoff: Not only will Mike Collins refuse to answer tonight, but he's on record repeatedly insisting that Donald Trump did in fact win the 2020 election, an election that he lost, and Mike Collins is on record. Supporting handing your tax dollars to the violent thugs and criminals who sacked the US Capitol and tried to overturn the election, aren't you, Mike?

I’m ok. Make no mistake: this is an attempt to target political enemies and weaponize federal law enforcement. For ten years, Trump has targeted me with baseless lies and smear campaigns. This is just the latest escalation in his campaign of political intimidation. I will not be silenced.

For @DenofGeekUS, I spoke with GODZILLA MINUS ZERO director Takashi Yamazaki about picking up where the brilliant GODZILLA MINUS ONE left off, his love of the franchise, and bringing a classic Godzilla foe back to the screen. #GodzillaMinusZero denofgeek.com/movies/godzill…

As a homicide detective, I can say with all of my being that there is no lesson learned in seeing someone die. But there is a price. And that price is your peace. Your decency. And the soul of our society. We don’t have to be this way, this fake tough but real ugly way. Stop
Breaking news: The firing squad execution of Fort Hood shooter Nidal Malik Hasan will be live-streamed, the Defense Department said. “People need to understand that there’s serious consequences for these types of things,” Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth said. wapo.st/4hNxK0C

What a pathetic fraud and liar this @JDVance is. Total scumbag.
Q: How do you define socialism personally? JD VANCE: I think in reality what it actually means in the American context is you want to replace American workers with foreigners workers, and you want boys to play in girls' sports

What kind of lunatic talks like this? The USS Lincoln returns to San Diego tomorrow after a grueling 10+ month deployment. Sailors are finally coming home to their families. And the President keeps saying, “Let them hit a missile into San Diego.” What the hell is wrong with this man?
Trump: You wanna see trauma? You wanna see problems? I said it the other day, let them hit a missile into San Diego or Los Angeles on the way. You wanna see problems? Let them hit San Diego. Let them hit Los Angeles. You wanna see a country that would be in free fall, we're not gonna let that happen. And they'd use it too

MAGA morons are the WORST of America. The very bottom of the barrel, just like their Dear Leader. What unbelievably wretched human garbage.
And the crowd CHEERED…for millions of their fellow Americans to be killed.

Donald Trump’s remarks were dangerous — if not treasonous — putting a target on two of our biggest cities and one of America’s largest naval hubs. I am directing the State Threat Assessment Center to actively monitor the situation in the event that foreign actors interpret the President’s remarks as an invitation to target California.

Marco Rubio: Iran is run by "religious fanatic lunatics" who "make policy decisions on the basis of pure theology" Meanwhile:
Hegseth: "Today, at my direction, I'm establishing the Office of Religious Affairs. It will report straight to the top -- a direct line to the secretary ... as Psalm 33:12 extolls us, blessed is the nation in which God is the Lord"
