Barbara Gomes Marques is documentary filmmaker who risks imminent deportation to Brazil. Loud voices in the film community could be especially helpful right now.

We hope and expect Lucy won't pull away the football at the last minute.

Some cool sunflowers from war-ravaged Portland.

Lindsay and I watched Zardoz for the first time a couple nights ago, and I find it funny how much of the talk about this movie revolves around Sean Connery's wardrobe, when that's probably the least bonkers thing about this ultra bonkers movie.

Disbanding ICE and prosecuting everyone who led and worked for it is, in fact, the moderate position.

My condolences

A very big Onion announcement: The Onion has spent the last two months working on a masterpiece. It's a documentary titled Jeffrey Epstein: Bad Pedophile. It's so good, in fact, we were set to release it in theatres nationwide on October 2nd. Then two weeks ago, Charlie Kirk was shot.

When the Right lies about the Left, it's called "Free Speech" but when the Left tells the truth about the Right, it's called "Inciting Violence."

Don't even come and try to sell Gerri any crap! She doesn't WANT THAT!

This one goes out to anyone who was a child after porn became less taboo in the 70s and before high speed Internet became widely available in the aughts.

Has this ever happened to you?

Dam been writing a book about this and she just TikToked it in 90 seconds.

anyone who says the fcc threatening to pull licenses of networks for jokes the president doesn't like is comparable to facebook taking the government's suggestion to remove posts saying bleach cures covid is not making a serious argument. they know they are being stupid and simply don't care.

i do not think americans want to live in a culture where jimmy kimmel is considered too edgy for television

Welp! Turns out I have shingles. Sure wish I had a chickenpox vaccine when I was young and I sure hope future kids in this coubtry will be able to.

Some personal news: I've been fired from the Washington Post in the aftermath of the Charlie Kirk shooting. Thread incoming. substack.com/@karenattiah...

The Nation pulls NO punches, from @espiers.bsky.social "There's no requirement to take part in this whitewashing campaign. Refusing to join in doesn’t make anyone a bad person. It’s a choice to write an obituary that begins “Joseph Goebbels was a gifted marketer and loving father to six children.”

The Dems have spent all day mourning a man that literally called for this, btw

Someone's triggered.

Liberals are doing the right’s job for it. By lionizing Charlie Kirk and refusing to acknowledge his real political project, they’re giving power to the right’s completely predictable effort to use his death to forward their goal of an authoritarian, fascist state.

Historically, the victims of political violence in America have been Black people, a fact that our country seems to conveniently forget anytime discussions about political violence come up

Which work? Calling for gay people to be stoned to death? Blaming airplane crashes on black pilots? Anti-vax bullshit? Election denialism? Pushing Great Replacement Theory? Kirk’s murder is awful and ominous for this country. But no, we don’t need to honor him or “continue his work.”

i'm not entirely convinced that the people begging for gun reform and pleading for less gun violence are the ones who made this country like this

That's a Chunky!

Incredible thread about how we got most of the rights we have today in the US as well as how The Federalist society and other right wing reactionaries have turned SCOTUS into an undemocratic institution no longer attuned to the voice of the people. Definitely worth reading all 47 parts!

Oh no if we take this to its logical conclusion, we might have to cancel Bill Clinton too, the accused rapist who gutted welfare

Is Jerry our MySpace Tom?

Slightly diminish a book A Tale of Two Party Cities

"but we can't support trans rights, it's unpopular!" just a reminder that US approval for marriage between black and white people at the start of the civil rights movement was 4%, reaching a whopping 20% by the end of the movement it's 95% now you don't wait for popularity for a rights movement

Succession in a nutshell.

a terrible game of Guess Who?

Varmint is a mountain of floof with tiny feets at the bottom.

Important to remember that everyone involved in renaming the DoD to the Department of War is afraid to take the subway.

I am not going to back down because the East Portlanders I represent are counting on me and other Oregon officials to protect our communities. When Trump sent federal agents to our city in 2020, he and his administration ultimately left as the losers. We’re not going to let him win this time either.

My friend Irene is running this campaign for her friend Eman, whom she met through a writing program. Eman has made it out of Gaza on a student Visa, but the rest of her family is still struggling to afford food, shelter and clean water. Any bit helps them survive: gofundme.com/4eman
