This is not an argument for despair, but an argument to make it harder for them to commit murder.

The more they get away with murder, the more murder they will commit.

Hey everyone Andrew Cuomo's doing a canvass this Saturday at Grand Army Plaza in case you wanted to sign up for a canvassing shift for him cuomoformayor.nationbuilder.com/grand_army_p...

(final thought as i'm swiftly slain by a band of ninja assassins) kind of a crazy amount of ninjas to hire for this

The red tide now poured from all sides of the monster like brooks down a hill.

So exhausting..

A top tier useless politician begging to lose a primary next year.

One Battle After Another and Sinners both lay out a formula for cinema success: diverse movies where white nationalists get duffed in the most graphic way possible shot and presented in increasingly baroque high resolution formats.

NEW: Neon, an app that pays you to record your calls so your audio can be used to train AI, and already rose to the top #5 free apps on Apple's App Store, has gone offline after a security lapse. We found the app exposed users' phone numbers, call recordings, and text transcripts of those calls.

On this day in 1913, the Baltimore City Council passed an ordinance requiring Black and white residents to live on separate blocks. The law was part of the first city-wide effort in the country to create legally segregated neighborhoods.

STICK TO THE BOAT, is your true motto in whaling; but cases will sometimes happen when LEAP FROM THE BOAT, is still better.

It's too late.

Yeah, I had to try three sites to cancel Disney+ but the runaround only made me more determined to do it.

Donald Westlake kept taped above his desk a card that read “Weird Villain,” because he had trouble spelling both words.

Just a friendly reminder that in the mid-80s, Knorr (the powdered soup and gravy company) had a weird scarecrow mascot made of vegetables.

LiveAI demo fails on the first prompt at Meta Connect 2025. #Meta #AI #LiveAI

One thing that bothers me tonight in particular is how so much of this is happening because of grand and sweeping capitulation by the media, by companies, by Congress, by people in power. Even when they don’t have to — they simply comply, acquiesce, and appease.

Sometimes I wish I could apologize to John Singleton for thinking the parts of HIGHER LEARNING about the alienated kid who gets seduced by white supremacists then shoots up a campus was kind of over the top back in 1995.

Auch der zweite Roman der Harlem-Krimi-Trilogie von @colsonwhitehead.com ist überragend. Drei smart verknüpfte, vor Leben & Details sprühende Episoden über die Ganoven, korrupten Cops, Revolutionäre, Filmleute, Politiker & Brandstifter im schwarzen Harlem der 70er. #booksky #lesen #krimi #harlem

In the 1st episode of my cop show, the higher-ups force the protagonist to see a shrink after a violent incident and he’s like, “Thanks for seeing me. I hope our work together and the transformative insights into my job carry over into other areas of my life."

Built in the 13th century. So that mosque stood for 800 years with every sort of person from every place and every religion in the world passing through Gaza century after century, only for it to be blown up by some shithead loser sitting behind a computer that we probably paid for.

Robert Redford playing a gentle incarnation of death, coming for a frightened old woman in The Twilight Zone episode "Nothing in the Dark" (1962). An extraordinary performance then, terribly bittersweet today

I can't remember the details, and can't find them now, for my favorite Robert Redford anecdote, but: When Indecent Proposal was being discussed, someone asked a film critic if she would sleep with Robert Redford for $1 million, and she replied, "Yes, but where would I get the money?"

Remake of Children of Men but it’s about a non-white family from another country trying to get home safely from a vacation to Florida’s Disney World

SISKEL & EBERT, which premiered #OTD in 1986, had a master class of an opening sequence. Thirty-five seconds, 21 shots, and a flawless establishment of the professional rivalry of two Chicago newspapermen who inspired a generation of film buffs. #FilmSky #TVSky

Stop reading the news and normalize lounging inside “Visiona 2” by Verner Panton at the Cologne Furniture Fair in 1970.

“The retired general [said] more than 10% of Gaza’s 2.2 million population had been killed or injured – “more than 200,000 people”. That estimate is…close to the current figures provided by Gaza’s health ministry, which Israeli officials have frequently dismissed as Hamas propaganda.”

I remember standing on this platform, 40 years ago, reading a paperback of “On the Road” and thinking, God, this guy is so corny.

You can write this only if, by virtue of your income, identity, or both, you are utterly removed from the consequences of politics. To pretend that the racist, misogynistic, anti-gay vileness that Kirk spent his life spreading is secondary to the fact that he spread it "the right way" is appalling.

It's truly hard to believe that it's been 24 years. As always on this day, from @colsonwhitehead.com: www.nytimes.com/2001/11/11/m...

The intense concentration of self in the middle of such a heartless immensity, my God! who can tell it?
