I haven't seen a single article about how Matt Berry or Kit Harrington or John Lithgow or Keira Knightley or fucking Nick Frost AND Simon Pegg have very publicly made it clear that they value a big blood soaked paycheck over human rights

If you rename the Department of Defense the Department of War, then bomb fishing boats in the Caribbean, and shoot an unarmed priest in the head with a pepper bullet, you should automatically be barred from receiving the Nobel Peace Prize for the rest of your life.

Activist Okey Vitalis Nnorom who joined the Omar AlMokhtar Flotilla remains in detention, despite earlier false reports claiming he was handed over to the Nigerian embassy in Jordan. The occupation authorities deliberately obfuscated information and misled lawyers about the detainees’ status.

David Simon, creator of ‘The Wire’, being interviewed by Ari Shapiro (NPR)

SHAPIRO: OK, so you've spent your career creating television without Al, and I could imagine today you thinking, boy, I wish I had had that tool to solve those thorny problems...
SIMON: What?
SHAPIRO: ...Or saying...
SIMON: You imagine that?
SHAPIRO: ...Boy, if that had existed, it would have screwed me over.
SIMON: I don't think Al can remotely challenge what writers do at a fundamentally creative level.
SHAPIRO: But if you're trying to transition from scene five to scene six, and you're stuck with that transition, you could imagine plugging that portion of the script into an Al and say, give me 10 ideas for how to transition this.
SIMON: I'd rather put a gun in my mouth.

Don't think for a second we will applaud the genocider and the genocider's sugar daddy for stopping the death count at 65.000 and leaving people locked in a apocalyptic wasteland.

They want all the remaining hostages in phase one, if all hostages are returned what bargaining chips remain to make Israel to the rest of the acts? Israel has broken all previous attempts and I see no reason for them to stop.

I want nothing more than a lasting ceasefire in Gaza, but both Trump and Netanyahu agreeing to it makes me highly skeptical this is in the best interest of the people suffering there.

If the Ed Gein Netflix show was not awful enough, it does a blatant bootleg “Mindhunter” section in the final episode that is both insulting and pissed me off that we never got more seasons of that show.

in retrospect I hope people appreciate how insane it was that people weren’t allowed to champion such a powerful act of resistance against apartheid and occupation, and the policing of posts that went along with it

I like horror and the Dahmer one was done far better. I think the issue is that there is not a lot to Gein’s story. It could’ve made an interesting single film, and not an 8 hour series. So they had to invent a lot of stuff and what is there lingers and is poorly paced.
