deleted his tweet as soon as an actual war popped off

For years on my old blog I published the names of servicemembers who died in Iraq & Afghanistan. No other outlets were. These are the first 4 Americans to die in the Iran War. Capt. Cody A. Khork, 35 Sgt. 1st Class Noah L. Tietjens, 42 Sgt. 1st Class Nicole M. Amor, 39 Sgt. Declan J. Coady, 20

Per The Economist/YouGov, half of Americans support ABOLISHING ICE. Literally, "abolishing." yougov.com/en-us/articl...

if you think the greatest threat to effeminate gay boys is the trans movement and not the cis straight men who overwhelmingly exclude and brutalize them then you should walk into the ocean immediately

Star Wars: Star Pilots features the voices of pilots from both the rebellion and empire during the Galactic Civil War. The main POV is Wedge Antilles, taking place after the events of The Rise of Skywalker. AND YES, BIGGS IS MENTIONED 🥳 Written by @chriskempshall.bsky.social , out this October!

a thing historians will marvel about when they study this era is the extent to which the "war is a thing that happens to poorer, browner people" class went about systematically dismantling every aspect of the global political order that confined the costs of war to poorer and browner people

Uh no...we definitely realize it.

Haven't done this in a while but some news re: ETE--after a lot of back and forth over how and whether to keep the old site live, we've now been fully relocated to a new, MUCH cheaper hosting platform and the site has been given a spit-polish (meaning I fixed a fuckton of dead image links).

Boy, does this make me think of Justice Jackson’s Youngstown concurrence, in which he warns of the danger of a president unilaterally initiating a war, and then using that war as a bootstrap to claim extraordinary powers at home.

Incredibly classy tribute to Warner Bros chiefs Pam Abdy and Michael DeLuca whose future is unclear after Paramount won WBD from Paul Thomas Anderson giving them thanks on behalf of One Battle, Sinners, Weapons filmmakers #PGAAwards

trying to think of the mainstream press reaction if a Dem President illegally implemented a policy this unpopular

Press gave Biden far worse coverage for a small number of American soldiers dying while leaving a war than to Trump for a similar number dying while starting a war for no reason. It makes you think!

there is no metric by which this is true. even 2028 primary polling (which is meaningless in general but seems like a fair yardstick here) doesn’t have him on top. just a brazen attempt to impose him on us by the rich and the commentariat.

The Department of Education has hung a massive banner honoring a racist college dropout who built a lucrative career out of targeting professors for harassment

Nobody here wants to talk Resident Evil with me :(

it’s probably fine that this meme is one of the top posts on every military Reddit sub right now

If America still had the rule of law, this would be the easiest prosecution ever, but we all know absolutely nothing will happen.

if people are using classified information to place bets, then theoretically others can analyze betting behavior to find signals that reveal classified information.

the incentives here are so obscenely terrible that the entire thing should be illegal by default “I am sabotaging negotiations because I stand to make piles of money on Polymarket” is absolutely in play, what a horrifying clusterfuck

Jayme Lawson from Sinners hit the nail on the head and said how I felt with the whole BAFTAs situation.

I'm hearing reports that the elderly despotic leader is now afraid to reenter the capital and is attempting to establish a functioning government in a gilded palace located in a remote southern part of the country.

Israel has closed all the crossings into Gaza and reimposed total siege.

It’s depressing but this shit doesn’t happen to North Korea

the US once again sending the message loud and clear: never negotiate, just get nukes. Never compromise, just get nukes. Never give in to sanctions, just get nukes. what could go wrong

this is what they said it would be like under socialism

“if you won’t let us use your product to spy on Americans and kill without supervision we will single-handedly destroy your business by fiat” is the single most authoritarian anti-business action I can ever remember any administration taking

#residentevilrequiem is pretty good so far, but the decision to explain in the opening cutscene that Jill died at the end of RE5 and was replaced by a clone named Jiill Vaalentine is a questionable one. It explains her youthful appearance in Death Island, but just feels like a gimmick honestly.

Two hours away! #residentevil #residentevilrequiem

Anyone else having the worst 2024 election Deja Vu? Corporatists who at least embrace diversity vs Corporatists who embrace whatever the hell Donald Trump wants to do.

This really feels like an Orban/Erdogan situation in which the aspiring dictator is making sure his friendly oligarchs control as much media as possible www.cnbc.com/2026/02/26/w...

Netflix won't counter Ellison's offer. Ladies and gentleman, the full right wing power grab is here and will now be beamed into every home on CBS, CNN, HBO, movies from Warner and Paramount. about.netflix.com/en/news/netf...

It's Resident Evil Eve! I watched the 2002 film and enjoyed it more that I used to. #horror #filmsky letterboxd.com/fitzmartin/f...

Michelle Obama was excoriated for encouraging kids to eat healthy.

ICE "should be abolished, but also it should be prosecuted" - Democratic Rep. @sethmoulton.bsky.social, from the centrist wing of the party, tells me he wants his party leadership to go further than just reforming ICE. Doing that is "no longer believable." Full interview: zeteo.com/p/moulton-ic...

Disability and Mental Illness are so horribly treated by the genre at large. I’d really like to fix that. #horrorwriterschat

THIRTY SIX HOURS #RESIDENTEVIL

Watch Spanberger's live response to the SOTU:

quick thoughts on the spanberger response. it was a good choice to pull a bob mcdonnell and have an audience so that you're delivering something and not just speaking to a camera. spanberger could use some practice on the teleprompter. that said, the speech is good and she is delivering it well.

I think Spanberger is hitting all the right notes here. She sounds reasonable and righteous. Not nailing the party down or offering any concrete policy but simply excoriating Trump.

I can’t tell others what to do, but here’s why I won’t be seeing Scream 7 bsidesbadlands.com/boycott-scre...

Idc how good a point you think he's making on Palestine you in fact DO NOt need to hand it to Tucker Carlson please have an attention span and time horizon longer than three minutes people

One day, at least some of these hockey players will have to explain to their children why they allowed themselves to be used by a fascist.

Two days until that slasher hits theaters. Watch these meta slashers instead! boxd.it/eUHlq

Ok Tisch needs to go

it was a snowball fight!! zohran needs to fire her now. this is a waste of time, taxpayer money, and straight up insane

“Disabled people have the right to participate fully in public life” and “Black people have the right to not face slurs” are normally both Norman Rockwell guy dot jpg statements, but today they are in tension and it’s making everyone insane.

Please be angry at BAFTA for their handling of this and not at a disabled person for their disability
