The White House is turning into a gaudy whore house.

He could have built a ballroom without the illegal destruction and desecration. I believe that these pictures are the reason he did it.

I want more people to care that SNAP benefits are being cut off on November 1. 40% of SNAP beneficiaries are children. This is callous and vile.

The best post on this. Anderson lives in France. Perhaps he was conducting "research."

Amen.

I’m disgusted by the photos of Ttump’s demolition at the East Wing, but I’m even more sickened by the renderings of his mar-a-lago ballroom dwarfing our White House. Once we’re rid of this despicable man, that ballroom must also be removed.

Thiel left dead in a ditch.

He's literally tearing down the White House. Literally. LITERALLY.

Sweet god. If this isn't a "let them eat cake moment," I don't know what is.

I knew I wasn't the only one who thought of Omar Sy's take on LUPIN.

Bless Shirley, because she's effing right. I have a friend who used to be a working musician in the SF Bay Area. Meaning, he didn't have any other job. Did he make a lot of money? No, but he was able to support himself. #Music #PayArtists #Spotify #Streaming

🤦‍♀️ Do people understand that anxiety, in of itself, is normal? It's not *bad* to experience negative feelings absorbing a story or piece of work; the work and criticism are done in the understanding of where your reactions are coming from.

When you are pure of heart no amount of earnestness is Cringe. When you are a malevolent little freak no amount of sarcasm is enough to make you cool

An excellent read. Make no mistake. Fascists, dominionists and authoritarianism crack down on artists for a reason.

You know what? I liked Mario Cuomo. I'm sure there were problems, but he did have that magic charisma. Andrew doesn't have his father's political acumen or rapport-building. Hell, he doesn't even have his younger brother's good looks (not that *that* should matter).

Whew! When Almodovar gets going, he REALLY cooks! I'll be digesting THE SKIN I LIVE IN for a minute, but we can never doubt Pedro Almodovar's prowess as a director or his love of beauty and color. #FilmSky #Films #Movies

Drew Struzan Forever

So this episode aired almost 36 years to the date on which the star of this movie would pass. The answer was ANNIE HALL, featuring the great, and now sadly late, Diane Keaton. Congrats to @gwbiscuit.bsky.social for ringing in first with the correct answer.

🧵: Last June, more than 5 million Americans joined #NoKings rallies across the country, protesting President Trump's authoritarianism. And this Saturday, with your help, it's going to be even bigger and better.

Art matters. Drew Struzan definitely mattered to the art of movie posters.

I'm so sad. I honestly want her life made into a movie.

A lot of us are on the same page about Diane's passing.

found exactly the one use of “evil recoils in the presence of Christ” I am willing to sign off on, HOOOOOOOOLY SHIT Father Larry did not come here to fuck around

after millions of views and shares of my Portland Frog art. (thank you all🙏🏾) I got requests to highlight priests, and chickens, and Chicagoans, and T-Rexes, and more… all of us who refuse to bend the knee. so this is for US. 𝚂𝚝𝚊𝚗𝚍 𝚃𝚊𝚕𝚕. 𝚆𝚎 𝚆𝚒𝚕𝚕 𝚆𝚒𝚗.

“We can give $20 billion to Argentina but we can’t afford the CDC’s measles experts” is a hell of an argument

RIP

Gene Hackman, Robert Redford and Diane Keaton all going in the same year. Absolute titans of '70s cinema

David Lynch Gene Hackman Robert Redford Diane Keaton Michael Madsen Val Kilmer Graham Greene Claudia Cardinale And more…. This is a massive slice of cinema history right here. Can 2025 just fuck off already please?!

That it's possible to be in a world where Woody Allen has outlived Diane Keaton??? My heart feels very sore indeed.

I've sung the praises of the delightful l2024 movie THELMA with June Squibb, Richard Roundtree, Parker Posey, etc. Until today, I hadn't really listened to Nick Chuba's score. It makes me want to pull off a caper. Snatches of THE PINK PANTHER and MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE (a direct influence).

Christ alive.

The most bone-chilling fact I learned is that the last privacy law the US passed was in the 1980s!???

If it’s worth banning, it’s worth owning. #BannedBooksWeek

The vindictive prosecutions of political enemies are not a distraction from the Epstein files - they’re one and the same: wielding the power of the DoJ to persecute your foes AND to protect your friends.

You made it halfway through the week *and* we still have free shipping? Sounds like the perfect time to treat yourself to a new book and support indie bookstores in the process. 📚

Can’t decide what to buy on Prime Day? Try: absolutely nothing, and then go support indie bookstores instead 📚

I just laugh screamed! Hopefully, I didn't scare my neighbors.

Weaponized incompetence + paternalism is a hell of a look.

Hope is a discipline, an action. Jane Goodall passing away on a speaking tour is yet another example of this. I think we have tied "action" to the idea of a work product, i.e. something we can walk away from.

May Jane's legacy continue to inspire conservation and inform the value of all life on this planet.

Donald Trump and Pete Hegseth invited the entire military leadership of the U.S. to Quantico to demand treason. They called our citizens “the enemy within” and promised to use American cities as “training grounds for warfare.” This is how republics die. www.mind-war.com/p/full-metal...

THE same day! What the hell are we doing???

Hmm, I think if people are thinking Warner Bros gambled with ONE BATTLE AFTER ANOTHER and have "failed," I think they're asking the wrong questions. I think anyone would be cleared-eyed that PTA doesn't do massive hits. Rather, I'd ask if they're hoping to just break even for cultural significance.

Y’all. Republicans are FINE with poking holes in the filibuster. They did it ten days ago so they could confirm 48 Trump appointees at once. Don’t let them tell you they can’t pass a CR without Dems. www.nbcnews.com/politics/con...

This is SUCH a great turn of events!!!

Amazing picture!
