ONCE WERE WARRIORS is a stone classic. THE EDGE is probably not a good movie, except I think it might be my favorite movie? variety.com/2025/film/gl...

Do they still have, is there still “the jerky boys

Cornell agreed to pay $30m, hand over admissions data with demographic breakdowns, produce annual "campus climate" surveys to check on antisemitism and changes "since October of 2023," and—here's the dumbest part they agreed to—that the govt can open new investigations whenever it wants. Appeasers.

embarrassing

I’m divisive.

Mmmmmm… e-commerce…

It's awesome that they're probably going to tank the entire world economy for this nightmare tech that no one actually wants

The Musk bonus news isn’t so much dismaying from an “awful person gets rewarded” standpoint - at this point there’s no higher level of luxury for him to ascend to - but because it gives him so much additional power to hurt people.

We are in this weird situation where we would prefer they not think they are going to prison, because it means they are more likely to give up power peacefully. But they also need to go to prison, and we need to build a consensus around that point

Kiyoshi Kurosawa's Columbo

Wait, James Remar is in ALL’S FAIR? Why isn’t he on the poster? Why isn’t he in the *middle* of the poster?

barely a metaphor lmao

trying to imagine the person that goes, "man, it's really important that i vote, i gotta keep steve bannon out of prison"

I feel like right after the photo Cruise dropped the bucket and grabbed Jr by the shirt all “what the fuck is this I hear about you dropping a streaming show at the same time? I THOUGHT WE UNDERSTOOD EACH OTHER”

Loren Dean is this mysterious actor who I see in something like once a decade and he’s always great.

I helped make a film, out this week, called “Rovina’s Choice,” about the deaths this man without conscience or accountability has caused — already 600,000, ⅔ of them children.

best ending of all time, let's be real

A particularly enraging thread given that Republicans have made relentless sneering assholery the core of their identity.

It's abundantly clear that a lot of Department of Homeland Security agents take great pleasure in inflicting violence on other people.

that's for edam sure

Watching RFK jr run away from someone collapsing feels like a harbinger of things to come

Weather app says it's 53 but feels 39, pretty insane differential there

When the freelancers and contributors did the trans rights letter we really thought the fact that they think highly enough of us to pay us to write/draw/shoot for them would have made them pay attention. Just the opposite: It triggered their innate contempt for their perceived lessers.

These people are viscerally terrified of the possibility that someone else might be able to make them feel bad about something because they find that a deeply disempowering sensation, and I think a lot of their specific political stances are actually *downstream* of this.

But I’m gratified there are still many staffers who have not signed on to the leaders’ politically driven bias, which has now embraced racism with growing fervor. It’s truly shocking I’m grateful to read Jamelle Bouie everyday, though the opinion pages are increasingly platforms for white supremacy

I used to rant that Ross Douthat’s whole function is to launder far-right ideas to liberal readers, and occasionally someone would argue with me about it… and then the NYT gave him his own boutique series with a *specific mandate* to do exactly that.

incredible pun work in the replies. bluesky, the official social network for dads

Confusion, hurt and guilt seek meaning and answers. Will they be forthcoming? Time for @macrogers.bsky.social - Give Me Away 0313 Spotlight: Connie 💜 podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/g...

Cool. What would you call the other wing then? www.nytimes.com/2025/11/03/u...

It always cracks me up when he just angrily demands a new narrative.

I should add to my story.

downvoted… simply for being human

Are any of these assholes predicting compulsory burkas in NYC gonna be asked about it later when it’s clearly proven untrue?

I think it's suboptimal that everybody is insane and racist now.

I’m a middle-aged adult man with a reasonable awareness of the most pressing issues facing our world who still occasionally becomes ludicrously despondent that Ncuti Gatwa never met the Daleks.

What’s gonna be the pathetic fig-leaf argument for why you can redraw in some states but not others?

“Hatred of wokeness is a sturdy, durable, authentic issue, but hatred of the Trump administration’s corruption and anxiety about the cost of living somehow aren’t”

Appreciate him articulating this explicitly although people will continue to rationalize bsky.app/profile/atru...

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

the time has come for journalists to flock to bluesky to take the pulse of real america

The latest, 11pm: —Prop 50 wins —VA Dems flip Gov, LG, AG; & gain in House —Dems win NJ-Gov —Mamdani wins —PA Dems win supreme court —ME vote-restricting measure loses —Krasner & Bragg win —JD's half-brother loses —GA Dems flip 2 statewide offices + Dem are leading to flip so many local offices.

When you stop using X then open it back up after a while, you realize how obviously it’s designed to elevate vicious jerks who share Musk and Trump’s cruelest, dumbest beliefs. Harder to see when you’re addicted to it; blazingly apparent from the outside looking in. Journalists: It’s bad for you!

Sorry to Pawan Kalyan, but I’m afraid THEY CALL HIM OG is not as entertaining as the election posts.

Funniest part of this is that he’s saying the shutdown is a disaster for Republicans, which seems a touch off message but okay who am I to argue

AOC: "This is about, do you understand the assignment of fighting fascism right now? And they assignment is to come together across difference no matter what."

Assemblyman Zohran Mamdani, who is also an NYC Mayoral candidate, is held back by authorities as he tries to approach President Trump’s border czar Tom Homan. This is in Albany. (Video: Bill Mahoney)

i don’t like him, but, man, turning down $10M in favor of haterdom is an all-time, world-class, heavyweight champion hater move

Head in hands wondering how this could happen to me, the popular president who posted a video of myself shitting on everyone 2 weeks ago

Bill Ackman gotta be on the third draft of a tweet longer than Middlemarch right now
