@valerie-ughh.bsky.social managed to sneak this one in St. Louis, but between Helium being strict and the show being ridiculously entertaining that’s the only one either of us managed, lol

Rhys Darby on stage in St. Louis, leaning against the mic stand with one hand in the pocket of his VERY skinny jeans, hair all floofy and generally being our adorable sunshine man

Kevin Costner's narration is fucking horrible. Why am I watching this?

No money in the red kettles. Mutual aid instead.
(And no, I'm not taking questions about this.)

Salvation Army seen feeding ICE today. For anyone who doesn't already know about their bigotry, here is more, No need to give them your money this Christmas, or ever.

It’s dinner time for the police. Appears to be pizza from a Salvation Army van.

Broadview’s “free speech” curfew starts soon, at 6pm.

Also the fact that Costner encouraged Michael Blake to turn his spec script into a novel so Costner could direct a film based on a novel is straight out of an episode of The Monkees.

Hey, you idiotic propagandists at the New York Post:

God Bless America isn't the national anthem. It's a SHOW TUNE written by Irving Berlin.

Watching Dances with Wolves for the first time since the 90s and am amused to see he's traveling from Ft. Hays, KS to Ft. Sedgwick, CO by way of South Dakota...

When we say “No Kings” this should include the nasty billionaires who use their money to control all media and the government.

Our nation's federal employees are more than just numbers on a spreadsheet.

They make sure we have clean water.

They protect us from financial fraud.

They provide healthcare to our communities.

They make our government actually work for people.

Do not forget this.

Yup. And there were Choctaw code talkers in WWI, but they've been mostly forgotten as well

World’s most dangerous dictator complains that world’s dumbest, most personally vile dictator didn’t win the Nobel Peace Prize. Reminder: none of this is normal.

Putin is standing at a podium, above him are words about Trump deserving the Nobel Peace Prize, and Trump thanks him.

Just like America didn’t single-handedly win WWII, cishet white men weren’t the only Americans who fought fascism. We’re damn good at forgetting, though, aren’t we?

Genuinely what the fuck is the reason why leftists are so eager to write off the contributions of ethnic and national minorities to allied victory in WWII because they do this with the Americans and the Soviets

"They really just honored that scene, and the thing they brought to it is their natural connection and really playing it honestly with each other, and listening to each other, and the way they look at each other, and how tender they are with each other." #OurFlagMeansDeath

I feel like this applies to other forms of bigotry as well - there is a definite power dynamic at play. You can’t just reverse things and have them be exactly the same, but bigots will absolutely try.

when a woman says "i hate men", i think "oh no, a man did something horrible to her"

when a man says "i hate women", i think "oh no, he's going to do something horrible to a woman"
