I time boxed my effort to rescore the Albion Colossus trailer from @spitfireaudio and while I would have added a motif for strings and some additional build-up at the end if I had more time. That said, here's my entry into the scoring competition. youtu.be/CyEQ-9VHjGM?... #composer

I’m sorry, can someone explain to me why the President of the United States was gloating about his plans to take over a sovereign nation…

WHILE THE FUCKING HEAD OF NATO SAT THERE SIMILING?!

NATO, for fuck’s sake.

I will endeavour to never spend a single dime in America, for the rest of my life.

Rolling back EPA protections is something that all Americans should oppose. Here is my grandfather in 1937 with his firefighter buddies in Etna, PA. A blast furnace released so much pollution that people had to change their clothes at noon from all the ash. Is this really what we want?

This is the state of the media today:

If you state the simple, obvious truth—that the president of the United States is mentally unstable and engages in mentally unstable behavior injurious to the nation and the world—you have to fear for your job.

Pathetic.

I really want to see a lasting peace for Ukraine. I just have to wonder why the US insists on getting paid to broker the peace deal with critical minieral resources? It feels a bit like extortion, no? What's Russia's payment to the US look like? #JustAsking

Many of the agencies that Elon Musk’s Department of Governmental Efficiency (DOGE) is dismantling had investigations or regulatory battles with Musk’s companies.

This is a massive conflict of interest, and exactly why an unelected billionaire should not be in charge.

As part of the United States immigration process, once you have a green card, you have permanent residency in the country. You're afforded free speech rights, and deportation is not something you would expect (in normal times). Deportation of someone with this status is NOT NORMAL. #immigration

I didn't agree with the nature of the student protests, but I agreed they have a right to protest.

This is the most important deportation attempt to date, because he has a Green Card. His free speech rights are guaranteed under the Constitution!

President Trump holds Mexico and Canada responsible for allowing fentanyl to enter the U.S. But last year, less than 1% of the fentanyl arriving in the U.S. came from Canada.

Here's what to know.

Responding to threatened tariffs by President Trump, Canada has unveiled a security plan aimed at tackling the trafficking of fentanyl, which is also killing many Canadians.
