This needs to be all of us. Use every chance you can to peacefully, publicly protest. #ChrisKluwe is a hero.

The cultural impact of Rob Reiner cannot be understated. Legend isn't big enough a word. It goes to 11. You can't handle the truth. As you wish. I'll have what she's having. I'm your number one fan. You guys wanna see a dead body? The very idea of a bucket list. The West Wing.

All from his movies.

I interviewed Rob Reiner as one of the bonuses for the @criterion.bsky.social BluRay of SPINAL TAP. We talked for an hour about the movie and his career and then they shut off the cameras and we talked about movies for another hour. A delightful, unhurried genius.

We taught kids to read, write, and dream; then trained them to hide, barricade, and bleed quietly while adults chose guns, cowardice, and silence over their future.

Once again, Russia has only itself to blame for this. It was its aggression that caused Finland and Sweden to join NATO and its Russia’s aggression that has strengthened the European alliance and put it on a war footing.

Massive Layoffs at the Dept of #Education Erode Its #CivilRights Division

Only five of the agency’s civil rights offices remain nationwide. Those who are still with the department say it will now be “virtually impossible” to resolve #discrimination complaints.

Measles didn’t make a comeback on its own.

This is RFK Jr’s anti-vax movement and his disinformation campaign. And equally as disturbing, some people are perfectly fine with this outcome.

Measles outbreaks are spreading across the U.S., and the country is now at risk of losing its disease-elimination status. Infectious disease experts say this is directly tied to Trump appointing Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to lead HHS. Are we great yet?

“If Russia wanted.” The dumbest argument ever.

“If Russia wanted to take Ukraine, they could.” “If Russia wanted to kill Zelensky, they could.” News flash, princess: Russia’s been trying to take Kyiv for 3 years—go ask the 1,000,000 dead Russians how that’s working out. Oops 😅

Putin claimed Ukrainian forces were "surrounded" in Kupiansk. He invited foreign journalists to see the encircled troops. Instead he got a visit from Zelenskyy who showed up to dismiss that claim. Ukraine went on the offensive cutting off Russians supply lines, killing 900 in 48 hours. #slavaukraini
