Gay superstar Jean Cocteau, a French poet, playwright, novelist, designer, filmmaker, visual artist & critic was BOTD in 1889 & died in 1963 at 74. Cocteau's longest-lasting relationships were w/ French actors Jean Marais & Édouard Dermit, the latter whom Cocteau formally adopted

The great Warren Oates was BOTD in 1928 and far too soon of hard living in 1982 at the age of 53. Peckinpah's "Bring Me the Head of Alfredo Garcia" (1974), in which he starred, is the ultimate incarnation of his screen persona

Im not blaming the victims. Don’t put words in my mouth. It is possible to disagree with someone without resorting to lying about what they said.

Reductive reasoning won’t fix this. Figure out how Texas - and others - vote against their self-interest and fix that. The rest of us aren’t the prob
Good luck with the “no one is to blame for the actions they took”.

Grief is real. Loss is truly horrible

But this was all preventable and predictable.

Texas didn’t want it. Texas will be sacrificing more at the altar of the MAGA Death Cult. This is a down payment, not a final accounting.
The job of government is to keep us safe.

Their parents voted against that.

Story as old as the old testament.

Texas voted for suffering. Suffering came. Why am I supposed to care if they don’t care enough to prioritize their actual safety and well-being?
They voted for this. They voted Trump. They voted Cruz.

I am sending prayers that they figure out how their heartbreaking selfishness made this a reality. But it’s Texas and they truly are idiots.
It is the job of government to keep us safe. Clean water, clean air, stable bridges, roads that are safe. When Texas voted to end the work of government…. they made a choice.

The FO is gonna be real and grim these next years. No one has the stomach for it. But here we are
Their parents did. The FO of FAFO is real. And grossly unfortunate.

Texans wanted this level of service. They got it!

Not crying for texas.
Texas voted Trump. Texas voted Cruz. Texas voted for a congress that stripped funding for FRMA and medical care

Why am I supposed to care? They got exactly what they voted for

The FO of FAFO is real.

Piss off, Texas.
👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾. Exactly.
Texas voted Trump. Texas voted Cruz.
Texas voted to end FEMA and deny tens of millions of citizens access to healthcare

I’m not shedding a single tear. Not one.
He won’t do shit.
I 🙏🏾 for the good people of Ukraine. #RussiaIsATerroristState

❗️"Trump's Favorite Newspaper" Calls on US President to Urgently Resume Military Aid to Ukraine

The New York Post, a publication that has long supported Donald Trump, has published a sharp appeal to the US President calling for him to resume arms supplies to Kyiv.
Utah residents vote for people who promised to end funding for FEMA and remove health coverage from tens of millions of Americans.

If no one is around to take the call, they can always ask Ted Cruz to pray for them. I am content with that service response.

Let the leopard eat their faces.
