Confirmed: Earlier this morning a photog overheard agents inside the parking garage say “dismissed,” believed to be calling off their planned mass raid.
A source tells me they had planned for *hundreds* of agents to flood Canal St. They got flooded instead.

With WAKE UP DEAD MAN, Johnson has crafted his best KNIVES OUT script yet—a sermon disguised as a whodunit. Unfolding in a space defined by faith is a story about belief; that slippery, treacherous thing that binds people and breaks them. My review: www.peliplat.com/en/article/1... #FilmSky

across all the variations: the Baum novel, the original film, the Wiz, Wicked (the book), Wicked (the musical), the Great and Terrible, Wicked (the film), Tin Man, the common theme that unites them all is “Americans are especially susceptible to propaganda from conmen and shysters”
One of the things about the Wizard of Oz, and the Oz series in general, is that it's arguably the first big fantasy series heavily steeped in Americana.
one of the core myths of American stories and art. i really enjoyed the documentary “Lynch/Oz” which came out a few years ago, about the ways WoO shows ups in Lynch’s works

The "I got Phil GLASS to compose the hourly Dong for the Glass Onion" in the film GLSSS ONION is such a great pun, and I'm related news, we're more watching the Benoit Blanc mystery I've seen the most.

Den Haag doesn't have the death penalty, we do. And while I'm generally opposed to capital punishment, I can make an exception for crimes against humanity.
Handing Hegseth over to The Hague is the moderate position.
Also recognize that this unambiguous use of the military to commit murder of helpless noncombatants as they fought for life is a direct reflection of the virulent white supremacy that has seized our government, where every Latino man is a gangbanger in a de facto state of war against White America

Eleven years ago, I had the nicest, intimate conversation with Udo. When an infamously pushy event-crasher tried to nudge his way into our chat by sitting down and awkwardly snickering at a joke Udo had just told me, he turned and went, "Why are you laughing?! That wasn't for you! Fuck off!" LEGEND.

I know it's tempting to say, "Yeah, but what does it matter, they don't care." Because they don't. Policies aren't self-executing, and you need popular support to function, even if you're a competent autocrat. If you're these incompetent douchecanoes, well...you're fucked.
