I will not be seeing Wuthering Heights because Emerald Fennell is a goddamn hack and I'm still pissed about Saltburn and how much of a waste of my time and money that was

Given my upbringing it's really funny that the only people I know now who've gone into the military are both northeastern Jews from liberal families

Couldn't find this post to qt on this site (because it's bad) so I have to manually copy the image from the MLB Twitter account to make this joke

Welcome to DC, where the rivers are full of shit, the trash doesn't get collected for weeks after a storm, the sidewalks are covered in dogshit, armed fascist thugs stalk the streets and the mayor does nothing but give money to billionaire owners of sports teams

this was a little silly but at least believable after one term of trump, but is transparently flimsy after two.

donald trump is forever. the forces he represents are not just going to vanish like a dream. democrats need to contend with this fact to find a way out of the pit.

The left should probably figure out an idea for foreign policy that isn't just "status quo ante Trump." That's a reason why AOC doesn't sound all that different from Jake Sullivan at Munich

Year 1 of transition: If I don't put on a full face and a dress to go to the grocery store I will kill myself

Year 5 of transition: Getting called bro by the cashier is worth not having to do makeup or put on anything but sweatpants

Ben Rhodes with the closest I've ever seen a Blob official come to having a conscience
“McNamara hid behind a story about complexity [in Vietnam] to avoid this full reckoning, which let his successors off the hook…. Time and again he used his powerful mind to rationalize staying rather than taking a moral stance and leaving.” —@rhodesben.bsky.social
An American Reckoning | Ben Rhodes

Finished Titus Andronicus for my Shakespeare in a Year plan (I fell a bit behind) and it is remarkable how the same man who wrote the nuanced, tragic depiction of Othello is the same man who wrote Aaron, who doesn't have traits beyond "I am a Moor and love murder and rape"

I really do think ushers should get guns. Had to tell three guys behind me to shut up, there was someone in my row using his phone to illuminate a notebook during the film. People are unable to behave in public anymore

I really do love the constant feeling of “the world you know is ending, modernity and the railroad and the government are coming” that so many Westerns have
