The Raid: Redemption

Grown men were high fiving strangers.
Raising the always fun question: What are your most memorable theater-going experiences?

Mine also include The Matrix, Blair Witch, and being way too stoned in Belgium when Fellowship of the Ring was sold out so we sat in the back row for Mulholland Drive instead.
It was hands-down one of the most memorable theater-going experiences I can remember, a collective 30-minute butt-clench/armrest-grab for the final climb. And we knew he lived! Wild.

I will never waver – even in the face of threats or violence – to get things done for Michiganders and protect your voice, your votes, and your pocketbooks.

I fought for you as your Secretary of State, and I’ll keep fighting for you as Governor.

They should be pounding on Trump’s culture of corruption instead of creating their own.

A lot of the resistance to traffic enforcement seems to come from people taking it as a personal judgment on their decision to occasionally speed, check their phone while driving, or roll through a stop. So I want to be absolutely clear: Yes, I am judging your shitty, selfish, reckless behavior.

We sent 9 weeks reading Catcher in the Rye and 9 weeks reading The Outsider at my public High School in the mid-1980s. I can count on two hands the number of my classmates who regularly read books outside of school. Kids should be reading more, but be wary of overly nostalgic declension narratives.
In American high schools, many teenagers are assigned few full books to read from beginning to end — often just one or two per year, according to researchers and thousands of responses to an informal reader survey by The New York Times. trib.al/gNp7kWK

Chavarria, a U.S. citizen, was held at the airport "for more than four hours and released only after he finally agreed to let the agents search his smartphone, tablet, and laptop computer. The agents...informed him that he had no Fourth Amendment right to resist." @pacificlegal.bsky.social is suing.

Trump: "It's not only land strikes on Venezuela. It's land strikes on horrible people that are bringing in drugs and killing our people. If we were in a war and we lost 300,000 in a year -- that's what the real number is ... it would be a war that's unparalleled."
