Trump intimidation of the media appears to be working. CBS, now dominated by Trump ally, cuts an entire report on cruel immigration policies.
Reminds me of how my own anti-Trump comments in interview are omitted in some broadcasts here in Austin.

Republicans in Congress: ABC made a business decision based on ratings and input from their viewers and advertisers.
Trump and Carr: No, it was us. We hated him and demanded he be fired.
I kinda have to believe Trump on this one.

The best (& also, the most entertaining, scary, wild, darkly funny, sharply argued & boldly written) book on this subject is Black Pill by Elle Reeves. She nails the chaotic right-wing edgelord landscape in a way no other writer has, the psychology and sexuality of it, not just the ideology

it really is astonishing how quickly it goes from “civil war” and “blood in the streets” to “wow guys it’s just a sad tragedy” when it becomes inconvenient

Oh, so it wasn’t a “radical trans activist”? That was a party line all the right wing propagandists flocked to immediately like it had been disbursed from somewhere specific as a talking point? I’m shocked /s

Please share with anyone interested :D

So what sort of interim plan can we get in place?
Gov. Abbott cruelly vetoed a bill that would provide poor children with summer meals when schools are closed.
One in five Texas children go hungry as Republicans deny food assistance and raise costs for families through Trump's Ugly Bill of Lies.

It'd be pretty funny if, at some point in the future, Star Wars gets remembered mostly as the trivia-answer precursor that happened to give us Andor, like The Tracey Ullman Show vis a vis Simpsons.

Unquestionable top three look of the night for me. Not the specific theme on the face of it, but deeply entrenched when you scratch the surface. Knew it immediately.

I think it's important to remember that The Met Gala is about funding art conservation. Fashion is art & history and what the Met does is make sure a lot of very delicate pieces that tell us how we lived & expressed ourselves through history. The Gala funds the Costume Institute specifically.

I simply must know who that person was who looked like they were wearing beige granny panties under a red lace bikini brief and thought they were somehow giving tailoring at the #metgala
