A free and democratic society cannot silence comedians because the President doesnāt like what they say. This is an attack on free speech and cannot be allowed to stand. All elected officials need to speak up and push back on this undemocratic act.

A couple days after her wedding my daughter asked me if I could somehow preserve some of the flowers from her bouquet in resin. I consulted youtube and hereās what I came up with. The flowers had started to wilt somewhat but I think it still turned out pretty good.

The richest family in the United States, the Waltons, made money by not paying Walmart employees enough. This forced employees to seek government assistance for food and healthcare. Republicansā response is to take away that assistance because the Waltons arenāt rich enough.

Everything thatās happened over the past six months has been a response to an imaginary crisis. There is no immigrant invasion. No trade crisis. No scientific or governance crisis. Just people completely high off their own supply trying to fundamentally reorder society. None of this had to happen.

Booker: "We have a president who did nothing as people stormed our Capitol, & then when those people who viciously beat police & led to some of their deaths - therefore cop killers - were convicted, he pardoned them. So for him to be talking about responsive law enforcement is hypocritical at best"

Val Kilmer was a genuine movie star. He was also a killer supporting actor - his performances in "Tombstone", "Heat", "Top Gun" and "Kiss Kiss Bang Bang" are performances for the history books. Those movies were blessed by his presence.

Man, if you're an 80s movie kid, things are hella confusing right now. - Were the Wolverines right to defend their middle American town? - Should we have let Drago get away with breaking Apollo? - Should we have ignored the super stealthy submarine piloted by Sean Connery??

Gene Hackman dying seems a good time to tell you that Sam Raimi made a western called The Quick and the Dead, absolutely every cool actor is in it, Hackman destroys in every scene as the Big Bad, and for weird reasons 1995 America decided it was bad and erased it from memory

I mean this with all sincere respect. No one played a total bastard as well at the great Gene Hackman. I kinda grew up hating him as an actor due to that fact. Later in life, I came to respect all of his work.
