Wow. Is Tucker still terrible? Yes. Is this huge? Also yes

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Sure I nodded in agreement, clapped, & laughed, but what you don't is that when my hands were under the table, I had my left fingers crossed AND gave him the finger with my right. #revolution

The most underrated comment in the whole thread

Yes, the fact that I'm attending the White House Correspondents Dinner might SEEM like a supine gesture of complete deference to the insane dullard who demands total obedience from the press, BUT that's until you see the secret message I have on my pocket square

This Lego video for drunk FBI Director Kash Patel is fantastic.

“It’s a couple of things that work beautifully in concert. First: no music. Audiences are so sophisticated, but what they’re not accustomed to is not being told how to feel,” Wyle says. “You take all that out and it forces a level of engagement where you’re now looking for clues within the frame of the screen, which forces you to look up from your phone. And I think that is extremely engaging, especially to young viewers who aren’t accustomed to being asked to participate in a nonpassive way in the viewing experience.

“Second point, shooting it with almost exclusively 50-millimeter or 65-millimeter lenses, which is the most comparable to the human eye—and only shooting from the point of view of a human being that’s present in this space. There are no cameras on gurney wheels going in the hallway. There’s no cameras on the ceiling looking down from a God point of view. You are limited to the perspective of a participant. You can look away, but you can’t leave, and it becomes an endurance test for you to stay on your feet as long as we’re on our feet. Which [brings me to my] third point: real time. Real time has an aggregate sense of tension that you don’t get in any other form of storytelling. What happened before is happening now, and these two things are going to add up to the next thing. And if we throw more ingredients into this cooker and keep ratcheting it up, it’s going to pop.”

Wyle makes eye contact for his next point, delivering it with a Robby-esque matter-of-factness. “Fourth point: The election went the other way,” he says with a shrug. “We could have been a really good show with a lot of nice things to say in a perfectly normal Kamala Harris universe. And instead we became almost a beacon of hope and humanity in an alternative universe. But in the midst of that, fifth point—this is essentially competence porn. You’re watching really smart, dedicated people do what only they know how to do at a level that you don’t know how to do it, and you’re so fucking glad that they’re there doing it, and compartmentalizing their own stuff to put your broken pieces back together. You’re so reassured by knowing that there are people out there that laugh and joke and have the ability to lock in like that.”

this is fucking unreal stuff from Noah Wyle on the magic of The Pitt. www.gq.com/story/noah-w...

One of my all-time favorite 90s bands! All of Rubberneck holds up & provides me with one of my constant writing soundtracks--listen at least once a week

I just said the exact same thing out loud💔

Mark Ruffalo, Glenn Close, Ben Stiller, Jane Fonda, John Cusack, Kristen Stewart, JJ Abrams, Katie Phang, John Leguizamo, and over a thousand actors, writers, directors, journalists, producers, composers, and Hollywood executives have signed a letter against the Paramount-Warner Bros. merger:

25th. Now. What kind of mental gymnastics do those Christian Nationalists perform to be fine with this one? He's so disgusting

You probably live over a Hellmouth 🤷‍♀️

The end of Viktor Orbán’s autocratic regime is a victory not just for Hungary, but for people who value democracy around the world. Congratulations to Tisza, to incoming leader Péter Magyar, and to Hungarians everywhere.

🤣🤣🤣. This comment wins

Trump’s latest proposal to gut the U.S. Forest Service isn’t about efficiency—it’s about walking away from the stewardship of our nation’s forests.

Fewer firefighters during fire season, less protection for watersheds.

Doing so without Congressional approval—that’s why we are fighting back! 🌲

Be best!

Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum has signed a decree establishing Universal Healthcare for all Mexican citizens.

The United States could’ve had this, but people chose economic collapse, cruelty and death instead. I’ll never regret voting for Hillary Clinton and Kamala Harris.

As a Californian, I firmly believe Tom Steyer is the best option for Governor. He supports abolishing ICE & is running to tax the rich, build housing, ban Corporate PAC money in CA elections & pass CalCare.

The other major candidates are less progressive & have mistreated their staff. It’s simple

It does make me really sad, though. I thought he was a good and authentic dude--I totally misjudged him

Some of the most successful political propaganda was convincing so many Christians that supporting policies that gut social safety nets, cut healthcare, defund SNAP, roll back environmental protections, and endlessly fund war is somehow the “pro life” and “family values” position.

"They have the entire deck, but I have managed to hang onto a 2 of clubs. #artofthedeal."

As a break from the chaos: I love it when I see an ad for a tiny ComiCon type event where they can't snag a lead/celebrity & it reads: "Featuring Gabe Smith, Star of 'The Walking Dead'" & the dude has one IMDb credit & it's "Negan's Man #7 S8 E12"

@joshmankiewicz.bsky.social What's the over/under that you'll be heading to Oregon next year to cover this...and that, in a shocking twist, the husband is a suspect 🤔?

Regardless of whether it’s all talk, when the leader of our country expresses plainly genocidal intent, everyone has to do something.

For citizens of all political stripes, it means rejecting this madness. For Congress, it means taking action to rein him in. Now.

I'd even venture that this is an understatement. He stands for, on, and by nothing. He'll do whatever Theil tells him is advantageous. And is far smarter & younger than Trump. Not a ton of Vance heads, even in MAGA world, but that won't matter. He needs to go, too

To be clear, when you threaten to murder an entire civilization, that’s not only a horrific threat to commit genocidal war crimes, it’s evidence for immediate removal from office as well as instant arrest for abuse of office and crimes against humanity. Stop normalizing this.

This is the most horrifying, psychotic, grotesque message Trump has ever posted—openly threatening to commit genocide. This is beyond reckless. It’s dangerous, dehumanizing, and utterly unfit for any leader.

I, for one, refuse to apologize or take responsibility for the insane violence our president is foisting upon the world. What he's doing is not American. It's Trumpian. More than 2/3 of Americans do not support him. The rest are trapped until we can figure out a way to get out from under his shit.

💯!!
