WELCOME TO DERRY is amazing. First episode is terrifying.

I liked THE PITT, didn't care so much for ADOLESCENCE, haven't gotten to THE STUDIO.

There are lots of good dramas on streaming TV. We really do live in a golden age. But TASK (HBO) has one thing many of the others lack: Soul.

JD Vance straight-up lied about Dems wanting health care for illegals. They are barred from the medical assistance orgs.

Hard to blame the Democrats for the shutdown when you're in charge of all 3 branches of government, plus the Supreme Court.

KILLING FAITH: A quasi-supernatural Western that has echoes of Cormac McCarthy. The first scene, involving a child and a horse, is a shocker.

Free speech?
Really?
It cost Jimmy Kimmel his job.

Bringing back the War Department is an interesting strategy for someone desperate to win a Peace Prize.

I see the Draft-Dodger-in-Chief has rechristened the Defense Department the War Department. In spite of his hawkish stance, I doubt he'll be gearing up anytime soon.

What do you call a bear without teeth?
A gummy bear.

HORRIBLE. SICKENING. UNACCEPTABLE.

In a democracy we settle our differences with words, ideas & actions, not hatred, guns & violence.

WE LIVE HERE NOW, Sarah Pinborough: Very scary. Turns out there's life in the haunted house plot, after all. Original and my God, so dark.

The motivation of the man who shot Charlie Kirk isn't clear (although he's probably mentally unstable--duh). What is clear is it was another example of American gun violence.

Trump has thrown sand into the gears of the American economy.
stephenking.bsky.social
Trump is a hell of a carny pitchman, I have to give him that. When a ton of people tune in, he's going to say he's sending troops to Chicago. Probably started the rumor he's sick or dead himself.

Trump and his greedhead cronies may get a big surprise in spite of their efforts to rig the 2026 election. They could find themselves swamped by a blue wave. Americans are wising up to the fact that Trump is turning the American dream into a nightmare.

As long as guns are easily available to crazy people, mass killings directed at so-called soft targets will continue. This is a fact. Countries where it's more difficult for crazy people to obtain guns have less shootings. This is also a fact. Do with these facts as you will.

The obvious advantage of streaming over movie theater movies is you can watch them at home. The secret weapon of the streamers, particularly when it comes to movies where the characters have strong accents: subtitles.
