Abolish Ice, fire them all, and then prosecute everyone, based on every complaint. I don't care if it takes a decade. I want these people ten years from now afraid that their friends and loved ones will find out they worked for ICE.

If you're grasping for anything to feel good about right now - and that's a very difficult thing to find - feel good about the fact that not everyone is as much of a spineless, collaborating coward as our elites. Total strangers will risk their lives to stand next to you.

"very fine people on both sides," remember that one

if you don’t want to see a video without actually playing it yourself, shut off autoplay

The reason there are observers is so that they'll have video to prove it when the authorities try to bullshit everyone. However, that's also the reason the authorities are shooting observers.

It's a start.

Violent paramilitary organizations are shooting civilians in the face in Minneapolis and we're just supposed to sit here doing our jobs?

🎉🎉🎉

I bought the @funcityeditions.bsky.social Blu-ray of this last year, so you're welcome I guess?

This is an excellent piece of reporting, and also quietly makes the case that Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is an absolute lunatic whose wealth has protected him from ever developing empathy, a conscience or a moral compass.

Been rewatching Golden Girls. Grew up with the dub, it's crazy how different the sub is.

Internet's stupid, shut it off

Naturally - these boys ARE the moment! But reminder: the Globes are totally irrelevant and they love to latch onto celebrity and whatever’s popular at the moment

There's "let's shoot the dream sequence in Super 8" and there's "let's shoot this in 16mm and process it to turn the grain into a miasma that channels our protagonist's wounded soul" and then there's "let's shoot an entire streaming series in 4:3 to remind people it takes place in the '70s"

Trump is going to lose his shit about not being saluted, isn't he.

Truly the best of us.

i was the only home whose cable didn’t go out when the sopranos finale aired and it showed tony looking up and seeing two guys walk into the restaurant holding hands. then it cut back to tony shrugging, which you have to understand in 2007 was a very powerful statement

THE GOOD PLACE. Take it sleazy.

This will be glorious. It might also destroy the cinema. But that would be glorious as well.

Zohran just went out and fixed the Williamsburg Bridge bike entrance. Just did it. No faffing, no nonsense. Bam. Fixed.

A classic.

January 6th has some teeth.

I know there's other shit going on, but this year's Canada's Top Ten is pretty solid.

did anything happen after that

Munchausen by dissociative identity disorder? Is that a thing?

This is good, you should read this.

kidney harvest

Obama left office nine years ago

Canada stepping up in its traditional role of "guy trying to get the blackout drunk to put down the hammer," I see

New SHINY THINGS just dropped, featuring three recent releases that just want to make you really uncomfortable.

From last year. This really does nail it.

By virtue of being the definitive cinematic chronicler of post-Soviet collapse, Tarr ended being the most prescient seer of the slow, endothermic decay of the 21st century. Werckmeister Harmonies is one of the great movies about doomscrolling despite the fact the most advanced tech in it is a truck.

Béla Tarr visiting a store in Peru selling pirated DVDs and posing with the owner and bootlegs of his own work, one of the realest ones, RIP

Ah, crap. What lousy news to wake up to.

A reminder - before Trump, MAGA, Musk and Fox rewrote history - that this is what the entire country agreed had happened five years ago today:

I know it's just clickbait, but COME ON NOW

"Slenderman is doing politics the right way" -- Ezra Klein, tomorrow

Well, this sucks.

This is the funniest thing that's ever happened on Threads.

This is what living in the year 2026 should look like this is the coolest shit I’ve ever seen

can someone stop making this merchandise so fucking relevant please eatf.art/usa

And @kateatherley.bsky.social just noticed I'd posted Queen and Beverly when this was actually at Queen and BERKELEY -- dammit dammit dammit.

Motherfucker finally saw the three spirits

I love this, and would also add something I've discussed with @realgdt.bsky.social in the past: We create fictional monsters as a way of containing and exploring the real ones humanity throws at us every goddamn day.

Oh great, he got a good night's sleep

... hey, has Trump been heard from today? Is he all tuckered out after all the crimes?

The man had Vanilla Ice and a Ninja Turtle at his New Year's Eve party, he CLEARLY thinks it's 1991

So it increasingly appears Trump just made up the idea that he was in charge of Venezuela. Made it up. Confabulated it. Confirming he is not aware of what is happening around him, and should no longer be in this job. Can't walk this one back peeps.

Toronto! Is anybody looking for a dog in the Moss Park area? Just saw this big white dude sniffing around the trees at Queen and Beverly, ran away when I tried to approach. Heading towards Parliament now.
