🤷🏾♂️ it’s hard to tell sometimes
Donald Trump and Republicans have tried to rig the 2026 midterms. Today in Virginia, voters sent them a clear message: The power is with the people.
GOP - *gerrymanders*
DEMS - hey stop that no fair
GOP - *gerrymanders even more*
DEMS - we mean it we’re gonna sue
SCOTUS - *legalizes gerrymandering completely*
DEMS - *start gerrymandering*
GOP - HEY STOP THAT NO FAIR!!!! 😭
What? I’m not wrong and it is interesting.
Today's Daily Mothra! 🦋
Production from "Godzilla vs Mothra" (1992)
So the profound degree to which the DUNE films are disinterested in Dune the novel’s primary thematic concerns really doesn’t bother anyone? That’s interesting.
There isn’t a new monoculture but that was funny and I honestly can’t believe we’re still talking about Piker.
The new monoculture is the unity that comes in recognizing how much you DON'T know that "everyone" (i.e. NOT actually everyone 😏) assumes everyone is supposed to, i.e. that poll trying to "gotcha" Dem voters about Hasan Piker where the OVERWHELMING actual response was "Who the hell even is that?" 😅

Did anyone else anywhere make films where comically fatally injured individuals take longer to finally die than Chang Cheh?
What bus again?
Would it be impolite to mention that Barack Obama got a deal with Iran with no bombing, no destruction, no schoolgirls killed, no US soldiers killed, no Strait closed, and no global economic crisis?
Olivia Wilde’s #TheInvite is phenomenal. Loved every second. An uncomfortably hilarious, deeply insightful chamber piece motored by sincerity cloaked in comedy. Pulls influence from Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf?. Edward Norton & Penélope Cruz are impeccable.
It's not a mystery to Californians why Secretary Xavier Becerra is surging: We know him. He has served the state with a steady hand for decades. From the Assembly to the US Congress, as AG and as president Biden's HHS Sec., He's always been there for us, and we're here for him!

Bless their little loser hearts, Virginia constitutional amendments first have to pass the full legislature twice before they ever go before voters
I do not want to be on guard when I read manuscripts. I do not want to be on guard when I read slush. I do not want to be on guard when I listen to music, when I look at visual art, when I WATCH A FUCKING COMMERCIAL. I hate Altman so much I burn with it. He and his kind have stolen the WONDER.
Congratulations, Virginia! Republicans are trying to tilt the midterm elections in their favor, but they haven’t done it yet. Thanks for showing us what it looks like to stand up for our democracy and fight back.
Then there was FL
are we supposed to open these
Big shoutout to Glenn Youngkin for being the worst Governor maybe ever. Northern Virginia is now the deepest darkest shade of blue.

The United States is still destined for greatness, but only united will we meet the challenges and seize the opportunities of our time.
These photos are gorgeous.
