OSCAR ISAAC, on whether he'd return to "Star Wars":

".. Yeah. I mean, I’d be open to it, although right now I’m not so open to working with Disney. But if they can kinda figure it out and, you know, not succumb to fascism, that would be great."

Oscar Isaac was not open to working with Disney after Jimmy Kimmel's suspension and will only return to 'Star Wars' if the studio avoids fascism.

They are leaving because when they did a documentary about our criminal President’s coup attempt, they did not include the parts where he pretended he wasn’t attempting a coup.
Bulletin: BBC director general Tim Davie and BBC News CEO Deborah Turness are resigning "following criticism that a BBC Panorama documentary misled viewers by editing a speech by US President Donald Trump."

Apropos of much more than one might think, I’m going to start referring to people who are drive-firsters in places where they most certainly have realistic alternatives as habitual drivers and will categorize them according to how many packs they drive each day (pack=5 miles).

This is what MAGA voted for. Americans standing in food lines while Trump builds a $300 million gilded ballroom, throws grandiose mar-a-Lago parties, and plays golf. It’s disgusting.

I recall the orange convicted felon once saying people would stand in long lines begging for food if Kamala Harris became President.

Now in 2025 people are seen in Cleveland and other cities standing in long lines for food due to his cruelty.

Endless projection. I hate him.

#bospoli needs to keep an eye on what is happening and may happen to our south. After a dozen years of the tall clown and then the cop mayor, we will see what someone who really wants to move the needle on street safety can do in NYC.
County Executive of Montgomery County who doesn't own a car when?
"Zohran Mamdani will be the first mayor of New York City in decades not to own a car"

Will be exciting to see if he can implement his vision to pedestrianize areas in the congestion pricing zone and dedicate entire streets as combo busways + active transportation

it is darkly humorous that after all these years, the Republican health insurance plan ends up being to end health insurance
Trump: "I am recommending to Senate Republicans that the Hundreds of Billions of Dollars currently being sent to money sucking Insurance Companies in order to save the bad Healthcare provided by ObamaCare, BE SENT DIRECTLY TO THE PEOPLE SO THAT THEY CAN PURCHASE THEIR OWN, MUCH BETTER, HEALTHCARE."

In 2001, terrorists tried to destroy the White House with a hijacked plane. 24 years later, the president of the United States accepted a plane from people funding terrorists and destroyed the White House himself.🔄

I didn’t think 2025 would get a better visual metaphor than the pic of Elon Musk’s micropenis car on fire outside a Trump hotel.

Or inaugurating a racist on MLK Day.

Or tearing down the East Wing of the White House.

But apparently we have a new winner:

I understand why we shut down American airspace for a few days after 9-11 to avoid a repeat attack but imagine shutting down American airspace to avoid releasing the Epstein files.
