After some difficulty I was able to get a person on the phone to make a complaint, they apologized and were ready to end the call when I pointed out that they hadn’t asked for the location.

An Amazon delivery truck earlier was committing the grave offence of blocking my driveway and keeping me from getting to a movie screening.

He may live as long as his parents but he’ll hate every minute of it

If he runs out of other posts he might decide any publicity is good publicity

You have people getting paid to do this, have some dignity

Love Guillermo Del Toro, but if he’s going to retweet 20 or 30 posts in 10 minutes about how much people love his new movie, he’s getting muted for sure.

the way Trump and his administration keep going on livestreams and tv to laugh about this, I can’t really compare it to anything political that comes to mind, only thing that comes to mind rn is a serial killer who writes letter taunting family of their victim.

Trump’s victims are now washing up in Trinidad:
“The U.S. campaign targeting what it says is drug trafficking from Venezuela has exposed Trinidad to the fallout: unidentified bodies with burn marks and missing limbs showing up in its territory.“

They will, but it’ll be extremely difficult for them to wiggle around “No person shall be elected to the office of the President more than twice”.

I’m aware, and it’s bullshit.

That raises the question of why every company he’s on the board of hasn’t demanded a psych evaluation.

Jeff McMahon @jeffmcmahon.bsky.social · 1d

I refuse to believe this is in any way serious but rather just another grift for the rubes.

If there’s a “workaround” (still unconstitutional) for him then Obama can also use it and I don’t think they want to risk that.

I really would like to read a detailed debunking article from someone with this kind of experience on nuclear war plans about house of dynamite and/or jacobsen's book because all I see from like professional critics is the typical "chilling, sobering...she's obviously done her homework"

There’s an honest, good-faith way to do that, and there’s what Platner’s been doing.

Jeff McMahon @jeffmcmahon.bsky.social · 1d

And Bjo Trimble, who should have gotten a lifetime stipend from Roddenberry for giving him a season 3, and therefore syndication, and therefore everything else.

Life is so easy when you’re just an unbothered piece of shit!

This takes my breath away tbh

Cameron @cameroncorduroy.bsky.social · 1d

btw there's that NRSC poll floating around that says voters are more likely to support Platner after hearing about his tattoo

here's how the question was phrased lol

The flip side is, the real villains of Barbarian are [redacted but they’re white and male]

Jeff McMahon @jeffmcmahon.bsky.social · 1d

The complaint about Barbarian is more valid because (a) played by a guy in a suit and heavy makeup, and (b) wayyyy less well-defined character and performance.
