Millions of people will die because of cutting international aid and this is what these bastards are doing instead.

ICE used your taxpayer dollars to trick out a bunch of trucks in new livery, all painted black with "ICE" and a logo printed in gold on the side (and Trump's name in gold on the back window), then shoot a rap video in DC to post on social media.

I am not making this up.

Just heard from a source that ~100 ice/cbp guys are in little Tokyo. Then saw this. JANM has detailed and haunting exhibits on Japanese interment. This is particularly ghoulish.

Alex Fernie @ferniecommaalex.bsky.social · Aug 14

Piece of shit ICE fascists are swarming Little Tokyo. Posted up outside the Japanese American Museum threatening people with internment. Impossible to overstate how disgusting these people are.

Turns out I’m extremely hyped for Marty Supreme.

Obsessed with these actors Josh Safdie snatched out of the Coen Brothers universe.

Makes my nose bleed thinking of how many ‘film influencers’ don’t actually watch movies and are not motivated to watch anything from before 2015.

This thread feels plucked from my soul, and because I'm chronically online, it means that I'm also plagued by the new generation of "voices" who don't know film history but instead parrot videos they watched made by other people instead of forming their own thoughts and engaging with art.

One of the weirder things about being an old horror fan in 2025 is the sheer number of voices belonging to 40-somethings who haven’t bothered watching certain foundational titles. Why are we listening to you?

Real big time loser behavior to cry over and over about not getting an award and then presenting it to yourself.

Acyn @acyn.bsky.social · Aug 13

Trump: Since 1978 the Kennedy Center honors have been amongst the most prestigious awards. I wanted one, never able to get one. I would have taken it. I waited and waited and waited and I said to hell with it, I'll become chairman. I will give myself an honor. Next year we'll honor trump, okay?

Oh, thank God! Won't have to see one of the best writers about film and culture articulately express his dedication to compassion and justice anymore. What a relief!

Yes, Walter Chaw has been suspended from Bluesky. He's not sure why yet ("guillotine jokes or Gaza gfms," in his words), but, yeah. This place sucks, huh?

Below the image, a table lists historical details: Bismarck was named after Otto von Bismarck, built by Blohm & Voss in Hamburg, laid down on 1 July 1936, launched on 14 February 1939, and commissioned on 24 August 1940. Its fate was to be scuttled after severe battle damage on 27 May 1941 in the North Atlantic, with coordinates 48°10′N 16°12′W.

Amelia is highly skilled, v funny, and, on top of that, she’s really kind and supportive of others in her field. Hoping to connect her with more folks since she is part of the IGN layoffs.

Amelia Emberwing @thatwitchmia.bsky.social · Aug 12

Guess it’s my turn to say that I was laid off at IGN. Real crummy birthday gift, to be honest, but my union fought like hell on my behalf and people came out of the woodwork to support me. Couldn’t be more moved by my colleagues & friends, and am devastated to lose a job and community I love. (1/3)
