I didn’t watch the first episode when it aired, but I loved the movie. The pacing was frantic, and the casting was flawless.

Lots of “jokes comedians only tell other comedians” stuff too, which was surprising

Did you watch/enjoy the movie Saturday Night?

ICE must be destroyed 🏳️‍⚧️🏴 @miawong.bsky.social · 7h

There's probably some historical precedent somewhere for ICE's strategy of arresting people's children for the sole purpose of drawing their parents out of hiding to come rescue them but I sure as fuck can't remember ever seeing anyone else do it

Moreover, ICE must be destroyed

I ordered this desk a year ago for $166, and was going to get a second one for another room, until I saw the current price. Thanks President Businessman!

Can you believe there are newspapers comparing Mamdani to Trump?

I had to go back and make sure I wasn't missing something with the Cuomo tweet.

A man who is very definitely in touch with the lives of everyday new yorkers.

[Me, a poor, on the subway, glowering jealously at all those fat cat, fancy pants rich people on the public bus]

Andrew Cuomo tweet:

@ZohranKMamdani's "plan" provides no relief for working families who take the subway, and unnecessary benefits to wealthy New Yorkers who take the bus and can afford the fare.

I focus on working families, while @ZohranKMamdani the mansion boy focuses on helping the rich.

To understand American politics, look at our media

There are 70,000,000 Americans who are fine with abusing children, poisoning themselves and their communities, selling public assets to private companies for pennies on the dollar, and school shootings

The media calls these people “Values Voters.”

Agree, but with one corollary: Attendance is mandatory but no squaring off against other liberals until next year. We need to stand united, and win or lose, you have to show you share a common goal to stop this administration’s march into authoritarianism.

Schooley @schooley.bsky.social · 1d

Some Democrats are already doing this, but I think all of them should treat No Kings protests as mid-term mandatory attendance events, like the local fish fry or county fair. Push back on the sweaty Republican attempts to make them seem scary.

you go out to these protests, it's kids, old folks, grannies, all kinds of people, and they're still going with "professional protesters" which I guess maybe works on the fox news crowd? but nobody else

Aaron Rupar @atrupar.com · 1d

Sen. Roger Marshall: "October 18 is when the protest gets here. This will be a Soros paid-for protest for his professional protesters. The agitators show up. We'll have to get the National Guard out. Hopefully it will be peaceful. I doubt it."

Most things that bring joy are abominations before the lord

That being said, pomegranate is a guac ingredient that’s been around since before Leif Ericsson set foot on this side of the world, rather than being some New York Times monstrosity

It makes sense that Shrek is a Broadway musical because at least 1/3 of Broadway musicals are Shrek in some way.

“What? A show about a smartassed outcast who just wants to be left alone so they tear the system down. That’ll NEVER get represented on a stage”

Hear me out - guacamole

I’m not saying the texture is good, just that it doesn’t hinder it nearly as much as long as it’s chunky guac. It also adds a flavor you wouldn’t be able to get any other way

Libertarianism is an awesome ideology because all it needs to sustain itself is gumption, grit, hard work, and several billion dollars in economic relief every so often
