Next time you see an elderly person with a walker or in a wheelchair, remind yourself that they might've lived wild lives that we could only imagine.

Great discussion by the @warmovietheatre.bsky.social crew about one of my favorite genre mixes — war and noir. Attack! is hard-boiled combat drama with a fantastic cast, unsung and ahead of its time. Nice counterpart to another fave, Kubrick's Paths of Glory. Get the podcast, see the movie. #noir

It was great to discover The Last Bookstore in downtown LA. Can’t think of a better use for an old bank. #booksky

There are more of us than there are of them.

RIP Maria Riva. What an amazing life! Her biography of her mother Marlene Dietrich is one of the best in the genre. www.nytimes.com/2025/11/02/a...

Portland rainbows forever

Great thread from a fellow born-and-raised Portlander. I ❤️ this town. (hat tip @sethcotlar.bsky.social)

TLDR: Judge Immergut GRANTS a 2nd TRO blocking the Trump admin from sending ANY federalized troops from ANY state into Oregon/Portland. (Full hearing thread below)

❤️👏

RIP Martin Cruz Smith. Great writer and big inspiration to me.

I have sent a copy of ‘The Onion’ to every member of Congress. To spread its message to less powerful people, I have also taken out an ad in a lesser newspaper. Read my full letter here: theonion.com/why-im-sendi...

A Dem lawmaker and her husband were killed by a guy for their political views and it’s already out of the news.

The scale of the rally in Portland is MASSIVE. Simultaneously crossing the Morrison and Hawthorne Bridges in one long parade of democracy. Tens of thousands of people. #NoKings

No Kings, Portland OR Bring your friends. www.mobilize.us/nokings/even...

Bravo

Nothing to see here. Just @emilyjaynef.bsky.social being forcibly removed from NY-17 Rep. Mike Lawler's town hall tonight for having the temerity to act like a citizen of the United States. Hero.

The United States of America is now just a sports gambling app writ large

Thousands of protesters gathered at the Japanese American Historical Plaza on Portland’s waterfront before they started marching south down Naito Parkway onto the Morrison Bridge. #HandsOff protest live updates: www.oregonlive.com/politics/202...

#HANDSOFF #NYC

Spectacular view of 100,000 people attending the #HandsOff march in NYC

Tough to capture just how huge and fed up and peaceful the march in Portland is today. Tens of thousands easily. #handsoff #pdx

Proud of my Portland #handsoff #pdx

Oh wow: Portland Oregon is NOT KIDDING #handsoff

At least now I understand how he bankrupted a casino

Good day to remember that a US President has no inherent power over tariffs whatsoever. It’s not like war powers or pardons. It’s entirely delegated by Congress to deal with emergencies. GOP Congress cld modify that law tonight and bring this to a screeching halt.

I have to be honest. I think the people in power are so stupid, sheltered and insane that there's no real overriding goal or strategy to any of this.

Reminder that Congress can stop this shitshow anytime they want.

White House says no one will be fired over the Signal scandal because no one involved was trying to cure cancer.

Every time I walk past a bank, I face an ethical question. Should I just rob it? It's a stumper.

Note for editors and producers: Forcing Ukraine to surrender to Russia is not brokering a peace agreement. Taking dictation from the Kremlin is not diplomacy. Betraying our allies is not courage.

Are you furious about Friday’s vote to give Trump more power? I am, too. Here are 3 things you can do: 1⃣ Get up. Action beats outrage. 2⃣ Speak up. Hold electeds accountable. 3⃣ Show up. Organizing together is powerful. Join me in this fight. Your country needs you.

No kings.

Budapest today. People are demanding that PM Orban resign.

I’m voting HELL NO on the Republican CR. It hands Musk and Trump a blank check, turning your tax dollars into a wanna-be dictator’s slush fund. No accountability. Just corruption on autopilot.

I am voting no on the CR. Trump and Musk are taking a wrecking ball to vital services for veterans, seniors and kids. I will not support a bill that helps them do it. I will support a clean 30 day CR.

Notice to flat-Earthers all around the globe: Please alert the authorities if tonight’s Total Lunar Eclipse looks like this:

Here for it. Who doesn't need a break from this kleptocracy shitshow? 😬

On the ground here in 🇯🇲, where Lionel Messi's Inter Miami is set to play Cavalier FC in Concacaf play tomorrow. Tickets are still available for as little as $20. I'm struck by the fact that you could fly from FLL to Kingston and see Messi play — and you'd possibly pay less than you would at home.

The modern Republican party can accurately be described as a group of child molesters who are stealing from us
