“Fascism” isn’t a slur for politics we don’t like. It’s a precise word with precise meaning. And in the face of what’s happening right now in America, it’s the most honest one we have. I’ll lay it out as plainly as I can. 🧵

I met Jeff in the few years he was living in LA trying to do the Hollywood thing. He is one of the most genuine, funny, talented, sincere, kind and great people I have ever met. Kinda knowing him personally will benefit my career in no way possible, I'm just so happy for his very deserved success.

So glad that Jeff Hiller won the Emmy for his brilliant performance in the criminally underseen & under appreciated SOMEBODY SOMEWHERE. That is all.

You matter. Until someone multiplies your mass by the speed of light squared— Then you energy.

As a kid that grew up in the suburbs where there wasn’t a lot of diversity, it was the X-Men cartoon that really helped teach me about man’s inhumanity to man, and the X-Men’s fight for equality. Reading this really sums up why you’re such a great fit on Uncanny X-Men right now. You get it.

Today’s talking point: “Maybe the shooter wasn’t a libtard, but at least we aren’t burning our cities down.”

The Right got a lot of exercise jumping to conclusions yesterday. So is The War still on, or…

democrat melissa hortman was literally politically assassinated in her fucking home less than 3 months ago and now everyone wants to comment on how bad it’ll be now like ok

The CEO is Piotr Szczerek and he deserves to be miserable forever.

If you had told me in 2012 that Mitt Romney’s presidential campaign manager would be posting like this 13 years later i would not have believed you

We built a calculator that doesn't work, but don't worry, it's also a plagiarism machine that will tell you to kill yourself. It runs on the world's oceans and costs 10 trillion dollars.

What people think they 80s were like versus what the 80s was actually like.

Their memorials are history. Ours are political. Because as always, there are two sexualities - straight, and political. Two genders - male, and political. Two religions - Christian, and political. Two races - white, and political.

READER’S DIGEST really knew how to assemble a banger issue…

Police state. Cop couldn’t wait to pull a weapon on an unarmed civilian quietly recording a traffic stop on a public sidewalk a good 20 feet away.

I've shared this quote before but I'll share it again, as it's one I've been thinking about a lot as I've watched how our oligarchs have been behaving over the past few months.

“Generation X, a lot of men like me-and I'm fully complicit in this-I think we have not outgrown our fandom in a healthy manner. And I think the biggest problem-look, I've spent 30 years writing other men's daddy issues, OK…”

South Park is getting canceled after this lmao.

Holy crap, #SouthPark. I really didn’t think Matt & Trey had it in them… www.hetrumpedus.com youtu.be/Afetnw70S04?...

In a night of pure magic with the incomparable @thejoedante.bsky.social and some gremlin friends, we had the best time at our sold out screening of GREMLINS 2 on 35mm (big shout out to our projectionists who helped make the night so unforgettable)

Man, this product we made sucks and makes the world so much worse. Please use it.

How does Jon Stewart on #TheDailyShow go from ripping media conglomerates new a-holes for kowtowing to Trump, to the point of doing a “go fuck yourself” revival style song, to rolling over for his guest who is literally running the LA Times into the ground with his pro-Trump editorial meddling?

"i asked grok" "i asked chatgpt" yeah well i asked carl sagan and he said the greatest enemy of knowledge is not ignorance but the illusion of knowledge 🧪

Did Trump have his #LonesomeRhodes moment this week? #AFaceInTheCrowd youtu.be/su3qmvCkvtE?...

The right-wing backlash against #Superman this week got me thinking: Has this happened before? That led to the discovery of these headline — from April 1940, when the official newspaper of the SS took umbrage at the comic book hero and ridiculed its creators. My how times change ...

I own this “Dead Ted” Keanu Reeves costume from BILL & TED’S BOGUS JOURNEY. At one time it fit me perfectly, lol.

Very striking how every right-wing conspiracy freakout was just a prophecy of what they planned on eventually doing - whether it was Jade Helm or FEMA camps, the moment they had the opportunity to make these imaginary monstrosities they came up with come to life, they did

“…and then Commander Riker said ‘Fire’ and we had to wait A HUNDRED YEARS to find out what happened next!”

🌌 Recently, we had the chance to interview @stevenmelching.bsky.social about his work on Star Wars Resistance, including writing the episodes "The Disappeared," "Into the Unknown," and "Breakout," as well as the unreleased episode "The Lost Book." Check it out here ▶️ youtu.be/_aRy5PWaiPY

Ariel view of thousands of protesters marching against Donald Trump in Downtown Los Angeles #NoKingsProtest

Protesters Urged Not To Give Trump Administration Pretext For What It Already Doing

Hello. I live in Los Angeles. The president is lying.

This right here is pure unadulterated hypocrisy. This is the GOP way. The original post is still up, but I took a screenshot just in case the puppy killer decides to delete it. #ProudBlue #ResistanceUnited #USDemocracy #Voices4Victory

Trump is deploying the National Guard in LA. Trump is holding a massive military parade on his birthday next Saturday. Read between the lines. It had NEVER been more essential for Americans to SHOW UP and PEACEFULLY protest the wannabe dictator. Show up for No Kings Day on 6/14. PASS IT ON!

There are a whole lot of parents spending 50 grand a year to send their kid's phone to college.

1/ Yesterday, #RFKJr. —the current Secretary of Health and Human Services—testified before Congress. When asked if he'd vaccinate his child against measles (in the midst of one of the worst outbreaks in recent history), he said: “I don't think people should be taking medical advice from me.”

Please enjoy this stock photo the local CBS affiliate chose for a story about traffic this summer

So I just learned about Texas (HB5510), a proposed anti-abortion bounty hunger law that will allow any Texan to sue anyone who posts, tests, emails, writes about, or otherwise provides information on how to get an abortion. It will also allow Texans to sue servers, websites, apps, and platforms.

"Masked security forces captured an opposition leader in the coastal province of New Jersey as regime officials continue their months-long crack-down against pro-democracy elements in the embattled United States. The arrest comes as the regime issued calls for summary detentions without trial."

Trump continually hiring from his TV favorites, like a 5 year old staffing up with muppets.

“Stone and Sky”

This, right here ⬇️ 💯 %

Trump argues this with such conviction that it’s clear he’s divorced from reality. Either that or he’s insisting that people ignore their own reality and accept his. This clip needs to circulate endlessly. It’s proof he’s unfit to serve.

This is high art
