A nice walk is a truly lovely thing

this is like some old man posting but i’m feeling a little under the weather today and so my exercise this morning is just a long walk and you know what activity rocks? taking a walk.

Boo dey!

I’m screening my new movie, BET ON A BAD HORSE, at the Eastwood Performing Arts Center in Hollywood tonight at 7:30PM. So excited to share it with the world! www.eastwoodpac.com

“The Tariffs Shelf”. This dude is the dumbest motherfucker alive.

The golf itself isn’t that big of an issue; the issue is that Obama played mostly on military bases, whereas Trump *only* plays at his own private clubs, thus directly and corruptly enriching himself off the presidency. And it is completely normalized now.

LA friends! I’m showing my new feature film, BET ON A BAD HORSE, at 7:30PM on Thursday, Dec. 4 at the Eastwood Performing Arts Center in Hollywood: eastwoodpac.com

This is correct, and my pitch is: Cannonball Run but also Star Wars

god, i wish alt-weeklies were still a thing

I still contend this is the most important quote of the 21st century: "We're an empire now, and when we act, we create our own reality. And while you're studying that reality—judiciously, as you will—we'll act again, creating other new realities... 1/2

Can confirm. Surprising crowd in tiny (and bright red) Fremont, NE.

About 15 years ago, this feature-length music video came out. It was called GIRL WALK ALL DAY. I first saw it at @sxsw.com and just revisited it the other day. It remains a true joy and a gorgeous love letter to New York. Highly recommended: youtu.be/UYStHmyoAsw?...

As an LA resident, this is the stupidest shit I’ve ever heard

This is one of my absolutely favorite showbiz anecdotes

The thing to understand about Chicago is that the people who live here love this fucking city, and we will defend it. Always.

Russia didn’t help get me elected in 2016. And I will prove it by doing everything that Russia asks me to do. by Donald Trump

we do not need to live like this

What else happened in 2008? (Perhaps it was the election of the first black president…)

THE NAKED GUN had every kind of joke: smart, dumb, visual, wordplay, callbacks, nudity, the works. So fun to see a big comedy with a large audience.

The studio system really did at more than one point spend tens of millions of dollars bringing this Dutch pervert’s dreams to life, and I think we can agree we were a better country for it.

Starting with Trump himself

The fact we have secret police whisking people off the streets doesn’t get enough attention. It ain’t normal and we’re further down the road to authoritarianism than you think.

There are lots of people out there who don’t realize just how many of us are infuriated with what is currently happening in this country. It is so stupid, so destructive, so unnecessary, and so wrong.

Big ups

If there’s one thing this era has taught me, it is that you CAN, in fact, judge a book by its cover. (see also: Stephen Miller)

Still not sure Democrats have adjusted to facing an opposition completely unmoored from reality.

Evergreen

kind of just endlessly sad and grieving that there are so few voices in the public sphere making the basic principled argument that immigration is an affirmative good in every way and the best way for this country to serve humanity is to welcome people who want or need to leave their homes

my most Gen X coded belief is that cities and the culture at large suffer profoundly for the near-complete death of alt-weeklies

Republicans lied about Hunter Biden doing this so they could completely ignore it when Trump’s sons actually do it. It wasn’t about getting the Bidens but creating conditions for Trump to get away with it.

To think the other possibility was prison.

The Trump Organization is building a new 80-story tower in Dubai, which represents a stunning, almost unbelievably corrupt conflict of interest. And it is barely a news story. That’s how bad things are right now.

You might even call them “deplorable”.

C’est vrai
