To put this in scale, Elon Musk's salary from Tesla alone could fund the SNAP program for the entire country into 2034.

RIP to this guy who I remember mainly because his last name is one letter away from mine

Noroi (2005) The Priests (2015) The Wailing (2016) It Comes (2018) Sleep (2023) Exhuma (2024) All the best exorcism movies of this century are either j- or k-horrors, sorry Hollywood

lol Trump could not give less of a shit

I find myself confused by modern Kathryn Bigelow films which feel almost affectedly cold and serious when her earlier films wore their emotions on their sleeves in such a thrilling and compelling way.

The ending of House of Dynamite is laughably bad and spineless.

I don’t know how many times I’ve watched this video. I don’t know how we’ve gotten to the point where men in full balaclavas can abduct daycare teachers while they’re watching children. But I do know that this isn’t sustainable. Abolish ICE. There is no way to reform this.

A quieter page from Tyler Landry's 'Of The Self' for Hostile Planet. Tyler also did the cover as well which we're just about wrapped on. Pre-launch page up for next couple days until the campaign starts: www.kickstarter.com/projects/715...

Finding out about some new book that sounds intriguing and adding it to my library hold list is a nice little dopamine treat in the middle of the day.

let me call you back boss I’m with a custoid right now [hangs up] i’ve been dreaming of ways to serve you.

I've been waiting to see Barry Lyndon for the first time in a theater. There's a DCP showing this month at the theater close to me, but should I continue waiting for a 35mm screening or just go for it?

Beshear: Let me be clear. The president has both the funding and the authority to fund snap during a shutdown. In fact, every other president in every other shutdown has done so. People going hungry in this instance is a choice that this president has made.

Every single time some art world influencer post worms it’s way onto my feed I thank god I have nothing to do with that world besides occasionally going to galleries to enjoy the art itself. What a rotten and tangled nest of parasites.

Zohran has now gotten more votes, in New York City alone, than 49 members of the U.S. Senate did when they get elected; It's likely that, when the final tally is complete, he'll have gotten more votes than half of all Senators currently in office. *This* is what power and purpose looks like.

Okay I’m gonna make a zine to sell/give out with copies of my book!!

A 34-year-old as a politician: My god he's like a baby. It's like they just elected an infant to be their mayor. A 34-year-old as an athlete: You have to admire the bravery of him attempting that dunk, knowing full well the grim reaper is right behind him.

This was horrific to watch. Agents entering a daycare, wrestling with and abducting a teacher in front of small screaming children. I just… what the fuck are we doing here.

The notion that ANY of Mamdani’s policies could realistically be described as “extreme” is completely laughable and can be dismissed out of hand.

Mamdani says in his victory speech, “we will hire thousands of teachers.” This, and not the proprietary chatbot classroom, is the future of education.

ah, perhaps instead of pumping millions into endless factional infighting Dem donors could invest in making local Dem organizations genuine civic spaces that can reach people during and between elections

@aoc.bsky.social says of Mamdani victory: "A lot of people...are willing to talk about party unity when it serves them, but not party unity when it serves everybody." "We have a future to fight for, and we're either going to do that together or you're going to be left behind."

Mayor-elect Mamdani directly addresses President Trump: “So Donald Trump, since I know you’re watching, I have four words for you: turn the volume up.”

This year I read some books about New York and I want to read even more in the new year.

Mamdani: "We can respond to oligarchy and authoritarianism with the strength it fears, not the appeasement it craves. After all, if anyone can show a nation betrayed by Donald Trump how to defeat him, it is the city that gave rise to him."

I love New York!

Zohran opening his speech with a Eugene Debs quote 😮‍💨

Reminder that this is a winning position, and people support it

Mamdani cracks 1M votes, the first NYC mayor to do so since John Lindsay in 1969

BIG BREAKING: Democrat Zohran Mamdani is elected Mayor of New York City, in the largest turnout vote since 1969. He becomes the first Muslim and immigrant mayor of New York City, and the first Muslim to be elected of a major U.S. city.

Fuck yeah!

One thing we don’t bemoan enough about AI is that it will kill the beautiful and bizarre and frequently delightful art of stock photography. I’m so serious!!!

It's so vitally important to our entire national politics these days to just pretend that nobody on the left feels, or is allowed to feel, a really deep hatred toward the tyrants and war criminals who have spent the last twenty five years destroying the future

It’s so funny that Republicans and other anti-Zohran entities like to pretend that Mamdani is hard to say when it sounds like an Italian name and is as easy to say as any of those.

I don't know what will happen in NYC tonight, but I do know that regardless of outcome, any number of public figures, celebrities, politicians and institutions that oppose Mamdani have done so with a level of rhetorical ugliness, racism, and dishonesty that should neither be forgotten nor forgiven.

Schumer needs to be electorally put down so badly.

“Nicholas Romano, 40, a professional doofus who lives in Bay Ridge, Brooklyn, was seen wearing a rainbow propeller hat while picking his nose and wiping a large booger onto the bubble next to Andrew Cuomo’s name on the ballot.”

The framing of this is hilarious: Democrats deeply worried about the repercussions of a victory www.msnbc.com/msnbc/news/m...

I wanna make a zine

I’m excited for Pluribus

Halloween may be over but if you don‘t want to let go of the scary spirit yet you should read my new collection of horror comics from @oni-press.bsky.social! bookshop.org/p/books/litt...

People fucking hate this guy. They fucking hate ICE. They fucking hate how much power he has. He is at 63% overall disapproval to 37% approval. That's lower than their poll after January 6th. And this poll was done before he started intentionally starving people. I wish our media would reflect this.

we don't regain control if musks and thiels can continue to run around untrammeled and in possession of limitless power. all of these guys will need to be gelded. this isn't about retribution. they are genuinely risks to public safety and security

It’s weird how much ”Noirvember” as a concept works. It just feels right to watch these movies in this month, but why?
