If this is a result of Chi Ossé’s intent to primary, good. If this is the result of Jeffries not sucking as much as people think, also good.

One episode of ‘Le Bureau des légendes’ to go, and I’m starting to suspect that Daisy won’t be named as new head of the DGSE.

Shamet!

“flood the zone with shit” “release the Epstein files”

I regret to admit that I bothered to see if “part 2” was up yet. But now I can spare you needing to do the same. It’s not.

Senator Lindsey Graham, 2018: "There's not a smoking gun; there's a smoking saw"

can a bone saw treat a bone spur?

The plan.

this cursed image found me while I was looking for something else, so now you have to see it as well. apologies.

“The Democratic Party’s leadership is not only failing to effectively fight back against Donald Trump, they have also failed to deliver a vision that we can all believe in.”

Move over Elvis, here’s Debbie Reynolds and Carrie Fisher.

sometimes in life a person *does* need to choke way the hell up on a hammer and lightly tap-push a nail into place, but…. not that person. and not that nail. let it fucking swing. physics.

My Veterans Day inspired tv watch recommendation is ‘Boots’ (streaming on Netflix). Based on the memoir ‘The Pink Marine’ by Greg Cope White, it’s got a great cast, and a wildly oh shit of course ending that really got me.

He He Hello!

Fuck The Baileys.

randomly popping on to mention that the sound design in Rose Glass’ ‘Love Lies Bleeding’ was absolutely superb.

November 21 an 22 - Fall of Freedom - www.falloffreedom.com "an urgent call to the arts community to unite in defiance of authoritarian forces sweeping the nation."

ahhhh! ¡so yum!

I’M MAKING IT AGAIN AND I CAN BARELY WAIT FOR LUNCH! (this time with “proper” sweet potatoes)

Does someone have a list of all the people who promised to leave NYC so we can put them on free buses to Florida?

Thank you Curtis. Seriously. Without him we’d be looking at Mayor Sex Pest.

They aren't afraid of Mamdani, they are worried about what he would unleash among VOTERS. That those voters would say: "actually, we're not buying this centrist bullshit you've been shoveling for decades, we want something else." That's what's being litigated in these Dem elites are worried essays.

Diane Ladd… Rest in Power to the original Flo.

Rest in Power Donna Jean Godchaux.

This soup that I just threw together in minutes… sooo fucking good. Thank you to @nigella.bsky.social and to the universe in general.

Let’s get Dino a few more backers! [pictured: some “fan art” I made for prior campaigns]

TL;DR, vote no

That’s quite a lovely moon tonight.

Got a chance to see Frankenstein by @realgdt.bsky.social at the Angelika, and it was wonderful. (I still prefer the popcorn at Film Forum) Happy Halloween one and all.

My NY Ballot Proposal would be to eliminate Ballot Proposals.

I… can’t unsee it. SpongeBob is Paul Klee’s monster dancing to a soft song….

Is Greg Bovino ruining Sean Penn’s shot at an Oscar nom?

Working on a project that marginally involves President Carter’s AG, Judge Griffin Bell, and came across this… Sighs.

That said, congrats to Charles Todd for being on *any* list that includes John D. MacDonald.

The Bonwit Teller building walked so that the East Wing of the White House could run.

Never mind every other single abominable or corrupt thing to this miserable moment, the extrajudicial and unevidenced execution of 34 human beings by the U.S. Navy on the orders of a U.S. President acting in peacetime is sufficient for his impeachment and conviction. If we were a republic, I mean.

Loki’s offspring… the wolf that kills Odin even though he raised him, and who pretty much triggers Ragnarök. Got it. Um… interesting.

How long before the Newsome - Platner 2028 ticket gets floated?

Dan Goldman is an Islamophobe and yet this is unremarked upon.
