MICHAEL BEST ACTOR JORDAN!!!!!!!

Alysa Liu and Ryan Coogler, god bless Oakland

So cool that people are still discovering this #Sinners syllabus, published by the African American Intellectual History Society, and composed by Jemar Tisby & Keisha N. Blain. Enjoy!

Wow! #Sinners www.aaihs.org/the-sinners-...

Sinners deserves Best Cinematographer simply for the fact that it's a modern movie where you can tell what's going on during all the night scenes

Anyway here’s a video of Ryan Coogler’s speech for winning best screenplay for Sinners on Jan 13 at the NBR, which he uses to talk about Minnesota and Renee Good and whether or not filmmaking can empower political change

For anyone curious, this is the brilliant Professor Yvonne Chireau, who talked about her role in consulting on "Sinners" here: religiondispatches.org/2025/04/24/i...

Timothee Chardonnay’s publicist just turned off her phone and checked herself into a facility.

Michael B. Jordan wins Best Actor in a Leading Role for Sinners #Oscars

Y’all she had a HIP REPLACEMENT IN DECEMBER.

The full performance of “I Lied To You” from ‘SINNERS’ at the 98th Oscars. #Sinners #Oscars2026

I don’t think this shit will work but i never want to hear about free speech from any trumpers or anti anti trumpers ever again, fuck off forever bsky.app/profile/cram...

lol. CBS had been trying to get Zohran Mamdani for an interview, but Bari Weiss' deranged tweeting caused him to turn it down link.vanityfair.com/view/5df1007...

Reflecting on the attack at Temple Israel.

Tillis: Don't appeal this ruling. The probe was a "failed attack" on Fed independence (Pirro just announced she will appeal Boasberg's ruling).

My favorite bit from ACTION PHILOSOPHERS: the end of "Epictetus The Stoic" written by @fredvanlente.bsky.social , drawn by me, colored by @adamguzowski.bsky.social Kickstarter for the *third* Action Philosophers book is happening right now: www.kickstarter.com/projects/roc...

bonus Discworld QOTD, from The Shepherd's Crown "FOR I CAN SEE THE BALANCE AND YOU HAVE LEFT THE WORLD MUCH BETTER THAN YOU FOUND IT, AND IF YOU ASK ME, said Death, NOBODY COULD DO ANY BETTER THAN THAT…"

You have got to be fucking kidding me.

If you visit the Twin City Model Railroad Museum in Saint Paul, you can see a miniature model train set inside of an actual model train set!

Great thread from @rebeccasolnit.bsky.social in the replies here.

This interview with the great @rebeccasolnit.bsky.social was a "wow" moment for me. Thanks, New York Times and David Marchese. www.nytimes.com/2026/03/07/m... I couldn't help noticing the question that seemed the most Times-like to me.

Re supposed end of the Target boycott: it’s 100% bullshit. See statement below from an *actual* leader of the initial DEI boycott. Even if true (to repeat, it’s not!), it’s not up to any small group. Target has fixed nothing + compounded its DEI sins with ICE complicity. People are done with it!

tough look for a man with a line of antiperspirant deodorant

No it isn't. www.theroot.com/the-target-b...

fuck the ADL

There's so much that doesn't reach the level of national news media. One example is that anti-ICE school walkouts are happening every day across the country, but are really only covered by local news. And those walkouts are *meant* to be highly-visible actions. Most community organizing is not!

A DOGE staffer assigned to the National Endowment for the Humanities to flag grants for "DEI" tries to explain what "DEI" is. This deposition is part of a lawsuit by the @acls1919.bsky.social, @historians.org and @modernlanguage.bsky.social.

I dunno, am I the only one who always found the British royals tacky? Like I’m sorry, these are people who every time I ever saw them on tv had zero social skills or charisma and had the world’s tackiest hobbies like yachting and Nazi costumes and ecofascism?

This didn't happen. The perception that it did is largely based on fictional shows that were about rich people. Much more common was a household where one person (theoretically Dad in a het household) was the higher earner and paid the housing costs and the other paid utilities & food

this is how I access Bluesky

I have created a diorama of the Partridge family attacking the Brady Bunch family. My life is very boring.

A sermon on Mary and Martha. The pastor kept saying Martha was wrong to want her sister to come in and help when they had guests. Mary was sitting on her butt and as the older sister, I knew that shit wasn't fair.

Here's the Karoline Leavitt interview people are talking about. Maria Bartiromo asks if Trump might send ground troops into Iran, because "mothers are worried" about a draft. Leavitt replies that ground troops aren't in the current plan, but Trump won't rule them out. No mention of the draft.

the reverse version of those “evolution of man” drawings

The South ending Reconstruction and plunging their populations into a backward looking culture and economy until it was forced to modernize by the Civil Rights movement is imo a very clean parallel.

this made me cackle all the way through

MANDATORY TIMELINE CLEANSE

A thought. 💡 How come it's campaigning in every other community, but it's pandering when it comes to actually earning the Black vote? 🤔

I heard that first line in [Maxine Waters voice] and I am with you on this. I know who didn’t vote for Harris and we need to stop wasting time on them if they’re still trying to justify it.

I once treated a guy with a massive back piece that was straight out of Geiger, think overlapping skulls in a mobius strip winding around a cross. Someone asked him if he planned to add flames and he said "No, that's KKK shit" and he was a white boy from Alabama. Come on now.

This thread is not about whether Platner is a Nazi. It’s about how he lies like a toddler when he’s cornered. And that’s enough. He’s not electable, and Susan Collins knows it. You can too, if you can read this thread, or this 18-page document. 2/

Well, gas is expensive, and food is expensive, and we’re doing a war nobody wants, but at least there are no jobs

Apparently, Andrew Tate has some dumb point to prove and tried to cross into Dubai, and is now being held in a detention center by Saudi Arabia. If they could keep him right where he is forever, that’d be a win for humanity that we all really need right now.

It is 2026 and we are not fucking doing this anymore. EIGHT WOMEN came forward and told stories of Franken GROPING AND FORCIBLY KISSING THEM. The man was a sexual abuser. He did not and does not belong in congress. Fucking period. End of conversation.

I think you should all be more normal about Jamelle Bouie.

SCOOP: Proton Mail provided Swiss authorities with payment data that the FBI then used to determine who was allegedly behind an anonymous account affiliated with the Stop Cop City movement in Atlanta, according to a court record reviewed by 404 Media.

Well, this is appalling. I use proton mail and I guess I'm now looking for a replacement.
