The AVATAR movies have this strange effect on people in that they fervently feel that they have to defend their opinion on them, good or bad, even when no one’s asking. 2025 was a pretty great movie year, and I’d much rather be talking about other movies. That’s my defense.

What's so frustrating in this moment of explicit government censorship is how many times groups like the ACLU and others told us they _had_ to defend neo nazis because of the principle of free speech. Now that fascists are in power, none of those principles are protecting marginalized groups.

"Well, if you take inflation into account, $80 for a game is the equivalent of $60 a decade ago."

I'll maybe possibly consider giving a fuck when inflation is used as an excuse to give me a paycheck that can pay for a house without having to become a doctor or lawyer.

The conservative movement has turned against reality on every scientific issue of our time, from gun violence to climate change to epidemiology.

If campuses are ideologically homogenous, it's not because academia has ostracized conservatives. It's because conservatives have ostracized academia.

Yes, prices will skyrocket.
Yes, business will go bankrupt.
Yes, stocks will crash.
Yes, unemployment will rise.

But if we hold on, the tariffs will be worth it. If fully implemented we can finally achieve the true American dream: rich people not having to pay ANY taxes.

I’m not surprised. Despite the “diversity” that disney sprinkled in their catalog within the past decade, they still cater to the white cishet demand.

& with American politics attacking diversity, i foresee that we will get less and less diverse characters/stories.
Disney is gonna stop playing with the Blâçk media.
Tiana and the Okoye series series been shelved.
The Blade movie is in development hell.
I don’t even know what’s happening with RiRi Williams series. 🤦🏽‍♂️

Hell yeah. Hold the line. This is what we need people to do.

Slow things down, don’t comply in advance so the courts have time to stop them. It’s starting to work.
Received a letter from POTUS today purporting to remove me as Commissioner and Chair of the FEC. There's a legal way to replace FEC commissioners-this isn't it. I've been so fortunate to serve the American people and stir up some good trouble along the way. That's not changing anytime soon.

AOC: "I want folks at home to look at what members of Congress are invested in private prisons companies, and look at the votes on this bill. It is atrocious that people are lining their pockets with private prison profits in the name of a horrific tragedy."
