It was originally set to be filmed in color, but Billy Wilder didn't like how it made Curtis' and Lemon's make-up look, so he opted for B/W.
If you are willing to give up some of your rights to keep other rights, you shouldn't be surprised when they come after the ones you thought you saved. She doesn't seem to have learned anything about bullies in school.
Can't wait to hear that a bunch of federal workers are going to get fired for not showing up for a job they're not being paid for.

Isn't that a form of involuntarily servitude?
Oh, come on Laura, I'm sure there's at least one mirror in your home.
Does Ramon mind sharing his noodles with everybody? Does he even have enough to go around?

Damn spell check anyway. Thanks for letting me make light of a bad situation.
I'd feel sorry for her except she knows he's a wanker with political ambitions who has no moral compass.
A typical Republican response to lower level employees getting a wage raise, and a typical FOX article misrepresenting facts. Instead of showing the percentage of the increase to the employees, they show the total cost which is easier to foment outrage against.

I admit to only a partial reading of what I see as screed. Complaining that 33% of judges are women? Why isn't it 52% like the population? To think that the author was able to say this without being pilloried is horrifying.
Trump didn't write this. The grammar, spelling, and punctuation are pretty much correct. Also he had a party to go to where he was the center of attention.
Once again I had plans to go out last night, but ended up staying home. I'm an extrovert who's transness is causing anxiety and reluctance to expose myself to the big pockets of transphobia here in SE Texas.
I had never heard about the extra neurons in autistic people, but it makes total sense. I like learning something new each day if possible. Thank you.
Were peacock tongues on the menu? Inquiring minds want to know.
This should happen Cal. Judge to Rep Jackson.
Judge: Let me get this straight, your State of Texas can redistrict to gerrymander new Republican seats, but California can't? Why is that?

Jackson: Well, er, we are Republicans with a mandate and we can do whatever we want and they're Democrats.
Jesus, was he actually trying to look exactly like tRump or what?
The Justice Department laid off or ran off how many lawyers in the past 9 months? Also military lawyers may be subject to ethics rules, but may be swayed to do a substandard job to keep in the good graces of Hegseth to retain their ability to remain in the military.
Hegseth orders the military to detail dozens of attorneys to the Justice Department, AP learns

An example of a foreign Ambassador doing what the US media fails to do on a daily basis.
With a whole pineapple!

I guess he's keeping tRump's mental decline reserved for his next tell all book due out August 2028.
.. Party leadership intentionally keeping Congress out of session so Trump can wage a war on Venezuela without being ordered to stop or not have funds cut off for it? Johnson said yesterday that Congress won't be called back into session until at least January.
Hear me out on this because I may be totally wrong. Speaker Johnson has Congress recessed. Trump has sent an Naval Taskforce towards Venezuela. Only Congress can declare war. Presidents can use military force at their discretion for only 30 without Congressional approval. Is the Republican... 🧵
My understanding of AI is that it can distill the input it has to answer questions put to it. It can't however generate an original thought. It can't ask itself questions. The output is only as good as the input. So why spend all that money? What am I missing?
