Too "neat" and "funny" for my own good. Should we eat the rich, destroy capitalism and overthrow the status quo? (He/him)
Goddamn... I'm rewatching BETTER CALL SAUL and I'm seeing so much of Chuck in certain people in my life. People who believe a rigid adherence to a concept of right and wrong makes up for some really toxic, really hateful, really unpleasant beliefs. Never connecting the two.

A D&D movie in the style of the first Jumanji, where monsters and heroes from canonical settings start appearing in the real world. Beholders in the sewers. Dragons vs. the Air Force. The Robin Williams role is Dev Patel as Drizzt.
If you were a despotic president, what movie would you force Hollywood to make? I want to see Quentin's Star Trek movie or maybe Kill Bill Vol 3.

Fun fact: this is explicitly why Dick Wolf created Law & Order: he violently hates defense attorneys and felt tere weren't enough shows about how defendants and their lawyers are scum
(also when somebody "gets off on a technicality" that actually means the cops committed a crime against them)

A mother of 8 was sexually abused by an ICE officer.
She went public with the abuse, and was deported the very next day.
Her lawyer says she had a stay on her deportation order
They disappeared her so she couldn’t speak out.
Silvia Reyna Mendoza deserves justice.
ICE should be abolished.

We have gotten so used to Great Replacement becoming normalized that most people hardly noticed that a racist, antisemitic, xenophobic conspiracy theory popularized by mass shooters and 4chan trolls is now government policy.
The U.S. State Department is repeating a white nationalist conspiracy theory.
On Friday, it claimed that “mass migration poses an existential threat to Western civilization.”
That line comes straight from the Great Replacement myth: the lie that immigration is a plot to erase white populations.

What's the medical term for when certain people, whom you've long-since had a poor opinion of, loudly and proudly prove they've even more shithouse than you remembered?
On a related note, I had a long phone convo with my parents tonight.
Didn't think I'd cry so much.

i am willing to compromise by just insisting on prison terms for ICE employees. that is the moderate position.
if there's a reason to keep up the "tribunals for all involved" discourse one such reason it is to put in stark relief how far away some of the Dem politicking is from the mood on the ground
eric swalwell said on msnow that a major goal of a dem majority after the midterms would be for ice masks to come off and badges to come out, this is insufficient

Michael exemplifies everything it means to be a Starfleet Captain; duty bound, selfless, principled. And at the same time is a unique character unto herself. The effort by some of paint her as unworthy will never hold water. She is Starfleet.

I'm only a few episodes in, by Hemsworth is by no means bad. The biggest dig against the season is that it's recreating the worst aspects of the books' myth arc.
Letting you know that I enjoyed S4 of "The Witcher," and as a Pole, my opinion matters more. I do miss Cavill but Hemsworth is a good replacement and there are many scenes where you forget the actor changed. The action is *amazing,* Fishburne is cool, and Cahir leveling up in badass was chef's kiss.

This has been happening for months -- the right-wing grifters are realising they've been outstripped by the hardcore idealogues and they're fleeing for their lives. They haven't reformed and they haven't seen the error of their ways. They're the same shitty, selfish fucks they always were.
You fucking people will let anyone off the hook for their violent hateful beliefs and all they have to do is say shiny words you like

And then Zohran Mamdani enters the chat in 2025 and is greeted with abhorrent Islamophobia & 9/11 jibes.
Well well well…

the takeaway from the Zohran Trump meeting is that Trump is a gullible fool who will temporarily bend to the last charismatic person he talked to.
Zohran played him perfectly but that doesn’t mean Trump is good now. He’ll go back to fascism tomorrow morning after he talks to Stephen Miller
