Thought THE SHEEP DETECTIVES would be cute — and it is — but it’s also terrifically funny and quite moving 😮👍🏼

When you run for LA mayor but you’ve never voted for LA mayor before.

It’s code for woman with a college degree who won’t let you say slurs or fuck you

In consultation with my attorneys, this is my official response to Trump putting me on his enemies list:

Congrats also to Stephen Graham Jones for winning a Nebula and a Stoker for this book within the same hour

uh huh

Thrilled to report that CLOSE ENCOUNTERS OF THE THIRD KIND is on @criterionchannl.bsky.social this month, we are now watching and it is still brilliant ⭐️

Watching Hunter speak so directly now, I wonder if he was given the same dogshit “shut up and say nothing” advice that so many others who went through political smear campaigns heard over the last few years. Advice from the 1990s.

Just to be clear, if this was the other way around, a Palestinian filmmaker mocking the sexual assault of Israelis, they would be banned from the festival for life

See, I’m old and I don’t “get” furries but the point is I don’t *have* to, just admire the creativity and cheer them on as they do whatever this is 😃💚

Tried a “Cherry Limeade” from Poppi, the low-sugar soda, and it takes exactly like a Halls Cherry cough drop. Whether that’s a rave or a pan is up to you, I guess 😬 (Hey, I just wrote an Adrian Chiles column!)

If nothing else, MASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE has brought The Darkness back to us, the only band who’d wrap rock falsettos, a pan flute and *more cowbell* into their glorious 70s rock blender. We believe in a thing called love! 😂

Every few years we get some fucking uproar about "political correctness" or "cancel culture" or "critical race theory" or "DEI" or "wokeness" and every single time the punditocracy rushes in to say "no no no it's VERY NUANCED actually" and it always turns out to be exactly what you'd expect.

Every politician who pushed AI should be forever remembered as a snake oil salesman willing to sell out humanity. Lying to our faces while the writing was on the wall for all to see

Yeah he’d regularly say stuff like the woke mind virus will end civilization and people just didn’t want to interrogate what he meant by that.

Like the "surprise reversal" of the hole in ozone layer and the "false alarm" of Y2K. The lesson, as always, is that we can fix, or at least greatly diminish, almost any problem. If we actually want to.

"Nothing says you won’t be intimidated like firing someone for criticizing you." My new piece @thenation.com on CBS, Pelley, Paramount, Mark Ruffalo, the Ellisons, and the greasy orange stain Trump leaves on everything he touches. www.thenation.com/article/soci...

I firmly believe that the summer of 2020 — the combo of COVID and the George Floyd “racial reckoning” protests — made the rich feel mortal and genuinely afraid for the first time and every horror since has been a reaction to that. They must *never again* feel unease, never age, never die 💀

I hope New York boos Trump harder than he’s ever been booed before but then they’ll just blame it on Mamdani somehow 😐

Life finds a way 😃❤️

I think about Giles many times when I clean my glasses so I don't have to deal w/ something hard. He made that character an all-timer. His range was deceptively wide & he could modulate emotional tone so perfectly that it looked effortless RIP Anthony Stewart Head, a kind man & a hell of an actor.

Nicholas Galitzine has been super-charming in the press tour for this movie so I too hope he doesn’t take the fall if it tanks (*cough*Jared Leto*cough*) 👇🏼

Also, half the “blue dots” are ops.

How unfair to not give him the chance to file a performance review where he calls himself a self starter

I DonT knOw wHO tOOk thIS It took me twenty seconds to find the photographer: Steve Mackay. www.stevemackayphotography.com Nobody forced you to post this at gunpoint. You could’ve taken a fraction of a minute to credit the photographer.

Oh I forgot that you can’t say anything positive on social media without a guy like this showing up. Yes, yes, you’ve won the internet, congrats 🤷🏻‍♂️

Darcy has put on Lady Gaga’s “Mayhem Ball” on Apple and it’s like she’s answering the question “what if Marilyn Manson wasn’t an asshole?” 👍🏼

I found the Canadian version of The Onion! Thank you @scottdagostino.ca!

The Walrus invited me to share initial impressions, alongside the awesome Starling Centre crew (eg Alissa Centivany, @jredden.bsky.social, @lukestark.bsky.social) & others. "AI for All" seems less an optimistic promise than a threat. The real slogan is: "AI will be adopted until morale improves." 🧵

I don't feel sorry for any fan who plans to go to the US for World Cup games. None.

whenever people get into arguments about bluesky versus twitter I just come back to the fact that I don’t want to spend time on a platform where the biggest voices are the worst people on the planet

I don’t think *everything* should be viewed through a socialist lens but consider how a kid making a horror movie based on his YouTube generated more money and attention in cinemas this month than STAR WARS. Imagine if we gave those kind of kids the money we give Disney. The possibilities for more ⭐️

It may be Canada’s finest satire site but sometimes @thebeaverton.com is too real to be funny 😐

today in censorship-- discovered that a full episode of 60 minutes-- an episode featuring Scott Pelley reporting on Trump's anti-DEI measures affecting an armed services musical performance-- is... missing from the CBS website. Just gone.

Every election I’ve ever voted in 👇🏼

The best AI slop works when you *want* to believe it but alas, no 👎🏼

Is the rest of the world not using Twitter anymore? This is all garbage from America

People love historical what if scenarios. What if JFK was never assassinated? What if the Nazis won in WW2? A scenario I never see discussed is what if the aids crisis didnt decimate the gay men of America in the 80s-90s? Its easy to forget 1 in 15 gay boomer men died. An estimated 300,000 deaths-

Letting my “no more Bill Maher” policy slide just this once because 🎯

I had to step towards the street because a pair of massive SUVs in a driveway were spilling over onto the sidewalk but then a tiny woman in a huge Range Rover came speeding down the street at me. Squeezed! All in the midst of a gas price crisis. Feels like we are just the dumbest society ever 😐

Big ups for the Blue Jays admin

This is all that American politics is anymore

Doug Ford, savvy marketer that he is, knew “OPEN FOR BUSINESS” sounds a lot better to the Ontario public than “EXPLOIT US, AMERICA”🇺🇸

DOGE, eh? 😡

Transphobia has been *a Christmas gift* to child molesters, it’s so unreal and horrible 👇🏼

I need to say one more time, I do not understand how Samara Weaving is not an A list star. Give Kyle Gallner his flowers too, for sure, but looking at Weaving’s resume and performances… it just does not compute. Carolina Caroline should be a must see for Weaving fans.

A great way to win the World Cup is to exterminate all the other country’s players 😡

Today, on the anniversary of D-Day, I honor the 320th Barrage Balloon Battalion. Erased from too many tellings of D-Day, without this segregated, all-Black unit's courage, D-Day would have sustained more casualties or even failed. 1/ www.nationalww2museum.org/events-progr...

THIS! This is the crux of it RIGHT HERE 👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼

"AI is - by far - the money-losingest venture in human history, and it's practically impossible to overstate just how *bad* the AI business is." Please read this thread. Government of Canada, you especially.
