I sent this letter to my senators. I feel more scared and less safe than ever in my beloved USA and it's because of the actions of our own government. #abolishICENOW

Super duper enjoying Wonder Man but as others have said, if you have never watched Midnight Cowboy, please don’t start Wonder Man until you do.

Hollywood stop shooting themselves in the dick and make some cartoons challenge.
Animation ruled streaming in 2025. Again. Nielsen data shows 'Bluey' repeated as the most-watched title across all genres, while 'KPop Demon Hunters' was the most-watched movie, and Seth MacFarlane won the inaugural Streaming Icon of the Year award.

Don Quixote is a lovable character in fiction but WE’RE NOT SUPPOSED TO ELECT HIM PRESIDENT.
Trump: "There are windmills all over Europe. There are windmills all over the place. And they are losers. One thing I've noticed is that the more windmills a country has, the more money that country loses, and the worse that country is doing. I haven't been able to find any wind farms in China."

I remember the heartbreak that day we said goodbye to Dr. King. Feeling some of that heartbreak today as folks try to drag us all backward into the darkness. Love has got to win, y'all.

It’s not a rule that I should be writing more about things soon after they happen, but it wouldn’t be a bad idea.

Many ICE officers appear to be white supremacists who were unable to obtain jobs in other branches of law-enforcement. Some liberal critics say that’s a bad thing.

I lost my job, my kids have measles, and Trump's personal Gestapo is randomly executing American citizens. But at least now there won't be any non-binary characters on the new Paw Patrol spin-off.

I played this video, tried to scroll away quickly but my phone froze in place, playing this video over and over so I quit technology forever.
This is an artificial mouth created by Japanese researchers. It uses artificial vocal cords, a trachea system, and a flexible silicone mouth that moves and shapes sound in real time.

It sounds so human-like!
