Goodnight to the brilliant and beloved Catherine O’Hara, whose presence brought so much joy to our screens. Here she is giving one of her scene-stealing performances as Gail, the Mister Softee vendor, in Martin Scorsese's AFTER HOURS (1985). ❤️

One of my favorite Catherine O’Hara roles is, perhaps, one of her least known, as an ice cream truck driver from Martin Scorcese’s After Hours.

Melania Trump’s New Movie Is a Documentary. It’s Also a Tragedy
The First Lady probably should have plagiarized the plot of her film from a blockbuster hit.

nails it! "The American Way" is not one of conservatism: It was coined in the very liberal Superman radio show to discuss acceptance and tolerance as Superman fought prejudice and racism. Adventures was a VERY liberal show for its time.

Reps Tarra Simmons and Shaun Scott have introduced a bill in the WA State Legislature that would prohibit state and local law enforcement agencies from hiring individuals who were previously employed as sworn officers with ICE on or after Jan 20, 2025. This is called an idea whose time has arrived.

Tory MP Simon Hoare has given a very vivid quote about Donald Trump's comments on Nato allies, which could actually be used in many contexts about the US president: "Frankly Trump makes my flesh creep and my stomach turn. Where are his advisors? Where is his nurse? Where is his sense of shame?"

This is 100% FALSE. Immigration judges do NOT play any role in issuing administrative warrants. They are generated and signed by ICE officers themselves. ICE’s own training materials say they can’t be used for a search of a home! Here’s a blank warrant form. Note who signs it.

Writing anything about Archie Goodwin instantly turns into a tribute piece because he was the one person in comics universally loved. I haven't been this astonished by an essay since I wrote about Gray Morrow. Boy, I would love for that to be my legacy: one of such talent and kindness.

“But the surprise of the moment has been the extraordinary solidarity that ordinary Americans have shown with immigrants and against Trump-Miller-Vance's parade of ethnonationalist horrors.” This is the reason we’re going to win.

Been thinking lately about the Winter War of 1939-40 in which the world’s smallest democracy fought the Soviet Red Army to a standstill for 100 days, inflicting grevious losses. Guys on skis with rifles using hit-and-hide guerilla tactics. 300K+ Soviet casualties.
