An equisitely detailed Talmudic analysis of the birthday note. Where do we go from here? Will Republicans continue to defend child rape? The good news is that WSJ is not backing down from their accurate reporting.

“Then they started to talk about cuffing me, and that if the kids were here legally, what do they have to lose by answering. I told them that they still have their fifth and fourth amendment rights, and that they don’t have to speak to you or help with any investigation.”

I know I’ve said this several dozen times, but right wing lunatics frankensteined together unrelated Bible verses to create “the antichrist” and a description of what he would look like, and then the guy fucking showed up and they love him.

found it, starts at around 5:30, as good as rock music gets

Thrilled to be in London and able to see The @mekons.bsky.social finish the UK tour @ The @100clublondon.bsky.social before they go continental and beyond with Horror 🔥🐴🔥

Watching the season premiere of The Rehearsal and curious if Nathan Fielder has seen CHARLIE VICTOR ROMEO

Time for a rewatch

@worstpossible.world The latest episode makes me wish there were a Charlie Victor Romeo-style play about the Richard Russell incident

Thank you, Dr. Carla Hayden, for your leadership and commitment to ensuring access to knowledge for all. Your service as Librarian of Congress has inspired a generation of librarians, archivists, and readers. Photo: Dr. Hayden meets with Internet Archive founder @brewster.kahle.org, 2017.

Well, it now appears that the media room will be open, so I'll try to live blog the JGG (Alien Enemies Act) hearing before Judge Boasberg myself. (This is on behalf of @lawfaremedia.org.)

My new toy arrived, with commemorative 3D glasses. This is probably in questionable taste but I don’t mess with true crime so my rubbernecking voyeur gotta come out to play somewhere.

don’t mind me (having just watched black box recording reenactment “documentary” Charlie Victor Romeo) trying to reconcile the ghoulishness of the conceit with the excellence of its execution (but also staging these reenactments as black box theater pieces … golf claps all around)

An underseen great in this category is Charlie Victor Romeo, a film of a play that re-enacts several black box transcripts of plane crashes; it’s findable on Mubi and elsewhere.

Imagine waking up today and you’re Charles Vinegarsyndrome and out of nowhere all 169 copies left of Charlie Victor Romeo are being express ordered before Sunday.

If you haven't seen it, there's a fascinating movie called Charlie Victor Romeo based on the transcripts of air crews during various fatal and nonfatal air accidents. It's the filmed version of a play that has been used for training by a number of different organizations.

I recently watched Charlie Victor Romeo, based on a play that uses transcripts of black box records of plane disasters. There’s no attempt to make it look “real.” It’s a play on film. Totally nerve-wracking. But I agree, it takes special talent to film a play.

w00t! Checkout the remastered version of CVR from our BluRay release showing up online in 2 & 3D on #mubi & #AppleVisionPro & hopefully #appletv soon!

This was 70% of the guys I went to school with. They didn’t do the assigned reading. BS’d their way through the discussion. Sounded unprepared and not intelligent but still became class president because they threatened someone’s dog.

Once again, the main goal of Trump's tariffs is soliciting bribery. That is why all who go looking for a coherent (if misguided) economic strategy that aims to benefit the country come away confused. Make manufacturing boom? Stop fentanyl? Generate revenue to replace income tax? Nope. Corruption.

Soon there will be a F.Supp. citation for Skadden, Milbank, Paul Weiss, and Wilkie being sniveling little bitches.

IYKYK 😂

"What do you know about American tariff law and golfing in adult diapers, 007?"

Look into the eyes of the singers. This film was made during WWII. The extras were in exile. They didn't know if they were ever going to get their home back from the Fascists. youtu.be/HM-E2H1ChJM?...

Brian Eno on the police raiding a Quaker Meeting House.

I have noticed that Theo Von, whose thing is being truly the stupidest person I have ever seen, moved really really quickly into talking about Jews controlling the media. Seems like we are moving into a really scary future at warp speed with Holocaust denial the next stop.

Right on @ansonmount.bsky.social

So Putin made the Trump envoy in Moscow wait 8 hours past the scheduled meeting time to meet with him, and this (below) is the length of the red carpet the Canadians put out for U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio. This Administration is getting exactly the level of respect it deserves.

A report from a Romanian friend of mine: “just came from a conference in Moldova. Russian forces in Transnistria are training with offensive drone weapons and have added more tanks to their small force there.” Go figure. It’s what I mention in this article: www.thebulwark.com/p/trump-ukra...

Do you remember your first cable TV lineup?

"The position we’re in with Putin isn’t toe to toe. It’s tongue to toe. The toes are his, and the tongues belong to Trump, Hegseth, Waltz, Witkoff, Bessent, JD Vance, and the rest of this bootlicking administration."
