Live a life that makes Trump attack you when you die.
Rob Reiner was creative, generous, and intelligent; all things a stupid petty narcissist conman finds threatening.
Rob left a lasting legacy. Trump will leave nothing when he dies, just a gold plated gravestone people will only visit to piss on

Tons of people talking about what a gifted director of comedy Rob Reiner was but to me his most impressive movie is MISERY (1990). Absolutely expert handling of suspense beats - Reiner could've spent his entire career as a successful thriller director if he so chose.

Just a reminder that at least 600 Americans were fired for failing to show sufficient respect after Charlie Kirk's murder.

Ginny Di makes an excellent underrepresented point here in that the secondary damage caused by AI is that so many artists have to defend our own work as organic now. I had to put out a statement that BLACK PHONE 2 contained no AI because assholes decided to accuse us of using it and no other reason.
I love paying human artists and I hate gen AI 🩵

I'm not here to fight about whether or not AI is ethical (I've made my decision and I doubt I'm gonna change yours.) I'm just here to talk about what I and many other artists have been dealing with as we adjust to a new media landscape.

I've worked in management for more than six years, and my biggest pet peeve is when people can't hit "reply all" to a group email.

Banning trans people from owning guns is a really REALLY significant escalation and I think the scariest part about it that's not being discussed at all is that the plan is to declare that trans people are mentally ill

Moreover, ICE must be destroyed

Trump DOJ is looking at ways to ban transgender Americans from owning guns, sources say | CNN Politics
Senior Justice Department officials are weighing proposals to limit transgender people’s right to possess firearms, according to two officials familiar with the internal discussions.

Graham Greene has passed away at 73. A proud Oneida from Six Nations, he was more than an actor — he was a Canadian icon who brought truth and depth to every role. From Dances with Wolves to The Green Mile to The Last of Us, he carried Indigenous voices worldwide. 🌍

I love how Superman is getting all the love. He’s been my favorite hero since I was a kid. He’s had a lot of hate. It’s good to see him getting the love he deserves

CBS will end Colbert’s Late Show next May, officially citing financial pressures and changing viewing habits. Observers argue political considerations, amid merger talks and presidential scrutiny, played a decisive role in retiring the long-running franchise.
