Heads up.

CALIFORNIA PEOPLE! Vote YES on Prop 50 and mail your ballot!! If you don't have one, get one!

some people told dave chappelle his jokes weren’t funny and this ego maniac has been having a meltdown over it for ten years

MAN. Second heartbreaking ending in five games for the Rams.

start telling your friends and family now that CBS is no longer reliable, because I'm still explaining how Newsweek was hollowed out by Republican ghouls and that deal was like a decade ago

No one, and I mean NO ONE, in Hollywood is talking about Tilly Norwood except over drinks for a chuckle. Actors are such an important part of the creative process - you want an actor who can surprise you every take, not one whose performance you dial up and down on a laptop. This is an ad campaign.

In case it wasn’t clear, the anti-DEI crusade has never been about merit. Zero news experience. Never been a reporter. Elevated to Editor in Chief of CBS News, one of the most storied news institutions in the nation. www.mediaite.com/media/news/p...

I was sent this by a Georgian this morning. 2025 premiums vs 2026 premiums for someone making $65k a year. Republicans in Washington did this. This is what I'm fighting to stop. This is what’s at stake in this shutdown fight.

ADP numbers for September were -32,000 on a projection of +51,000. August was revised to -3,000, marking the first consecutive negative months since the heights of Covid. This is bad.

In all the chaos, I would urge folks to remember that a lot of folks now don’t know when their next check will come. The vast majority are good people who love this nation deeply, and many of them are still working despite not knowing when they’ll be paid Have compassion.

Just like no one misses Leno. No one remembers his comedy (whereas Letterman's is revered.) His entire tenure is forgettable, outside of the infamy of what he did to Conan.

A reminder that no matter what the news says, no matter how Republicans try to frame it, voters OVERWHELMINGLY blame Republicans for any and every government shutdown. Every. Single. Time.

That Burr is spinning this with “Saudi Arabia’s not that bad!” is the whole point of the royan family bringing him and the rest of the comedians over and paying them obsscene amounts of money. The comedy was incidental. The whitewashing was what they paid for.

Since the Ezra & Ta-Nehisi discussion is still happening: the main point I think most are missing is that Klein is saying the role of the journalist-intellectual is to do strategic politics, whereas Coates says the role of the journalist-intellectual is to tell the truth

This wretched government

Indie director Barbara Marques has been kidnapped by ICE. She is legally married to a U.S. citizen & was at a green card mtg when she was abducted and prevented from seeing her lawyer. Her husband Tucker May does not know where she is. Please spread the word so he can find her /1

Stuck in a scene? Do what the pros do: use brackets. Write what the story beat is: [Our hero gets out of the fight through clever means] Then just keep writing what happens after. Maintaining momentum is key to getting the most words on the page. Meanwhile solutions often present themselves later.

War-ravaged Portland, 5 minutes ago

I worked with Bob, long ago. Best of men, best of writers.

It took just three days to get Sinclair to back down, and what it got in exchange for agreeing to put Kimmel back on the air was...nothing. This is not what happens every time you stand up to a bully, but if you don't fight back, you'll never know if you would have won.

I have confirmed this as well. Per an industry source familiar with the situation, ABC and Kimmel made no editorial or content concessions to Sinclair.

Their only power is our fear because when we push back on anything they lose.

Shockingly, it turns out there is a limit to what is tolerable. This is an opportunity to be exploited. Record everything. Get loud. And get trained in bystander intervention. www.nytimes.com/2025/09/26/n...

Two hours and already past a million views on the second night back... www.youtube.com/watch?v=EHNY...

I still believe the CIA was paid to drop off podcasting equipment in the Black community.

Another win for "Fuck you. Make me."

HELP LA and Orange County Hive mind...my daughter is struggling to find a location for her film thesis. Anyone have land property/a big backyard that looks forestry with trees? She is struggling to find a location because she needs to do an overnight shoot and public parks close early.

Giorgia Meloni, Italy's PM, is a far right fascist who supports Israel, but the general strike Italians carried out 2 days ago scared the shit out of her. Strikes are the most effective way to get politicians to do what you want them to do. Shut down profit and they stand to attention.

Jimmy Kimmel's Monologue now has 14.3 MILLION VIEWS on YouTube. It would be a shame for you to share it www.youtube.com/watch?v=c1tj...

You cannot trust information coming from Kash Patel's FBI. You cannot trust information coming from ICE. You cannot trust information coming the Trump administration. You cannot trust information coming from Republicans.

Tonight, the American people - in defense of free speech - returned a political satirist to the airwaves after a burgeoning fascist regime tried to silence him. It’s an historic night. I won’t forget it.

A-fucking-men.

He launched a more powerful defense of journalism than the vast majority of mainstream journalists have and that's an indictment of them.

The Kimmel monologue was 18 minutes of extraordinary, raw television that will be hated by the people who wanted him off the air for good. Trump and Brendan Carr lost this one as badly as it's possible to lose.

He is COOKING.

ABC has posted the first 28 minutes of @jimmykimmellive.bsky.social WATCH: www.youtube.com/watch?v=c1tj...

DC/DMV folks: When Jimmy Kimmel fails to air at 11:35 tonight because Sinclair Broadcasting wants to punish him, light up the station’s switchboard and tell them you will be contacting and boycotting their advertisers.

Now that Jimmy Kimmel is getting reinstated, many MAGA figures are trying to argue that this shows Trump *didn't* use authoritarian abuses to originally oust him. This is a transparent scam from MAGA, and media figures should not be gaslit by it. New piece from me: newrepublic.com/article/2008...

Contact phone numbers here: abc.com/news/772f26f...

Which is EXACTLY what Eisner would've done, and thrown in the NFL too.

Well, there it is. Sinclair is digging in for a fight, so please help push back -- find stations in your area, watch their local news to see what ads they run, then write those advertisers to tell them you're boycotting as long as they're on a Sinclair station. List here: sbgi.net/tv-stations/

Pushback works

Dana Bash knows Trump has called people fascists multiple times but doesn't care to mention it, because she's not a reporter.

Somebody at Disney googled "How to unring a bell"

New: Sarah MacLachlan, Jewel, and more musicians scheduled to perform at tonight's premiere for Hulu's ABC News doc LILITH FAIR have all pulled out after Disney scrapped the red carpet. First notable talent consequence of the Jimmy Kimmel situation.

Hey everyone! Monday we will be back at it again at Disney in Burbank from 9 AM to 1 PM! Join us to fight for the 1st amendment and to fight against fascism! Please repost and spread the word! TY! #FreeSpeech #FirstAmendment #JimmyKimmel

This post has now been deleted. Suggesting it really was a DM to Bondi, violating presidential Records Act, and basically all national security protocols. But who cares. All the laws are for trampling now.

yup.

Cardinal Timothy Dolan failed to report direct admissions of rape by multiple priests, lobbied against extending the statute of limitations for sex abuse, and moved money off the church books to hide it from victims of sex abuse. In case you were wondering.
