I live in New York. No, not that one. No, not New Jersey. No, not the bit by the waterfall- you know what? Never mind.
Everything I like is retro because I am old now. He/Him.

New year, so it's time for a "Things I watched in 2026" Master Thread - will try to remember to add shows and films to this list as I complete them (season by season, in the case of things that are multi-season).

Periodic reminder that this guy LOST his election in Minnesota and he's doing more for those constituents than the Mayor and the Governor combined
"If you want to investigate fraud, bring an accountant,” Stancil, a Democratic activist and education policy adviser told me as we drove around ... The ICE agents in Minnesota don’t look like accountants. They look like soldiers. And you don’t bring soldiers unless you want to fight a war."
Richard Warnica: I spent the week in Minnesota. The only thing I’m sure of now is that more people are going to die
As confrontations between ICE and protestors and activists grow more common, the tension only rises.

~50% of the people living in the US weren’t even born the last time a President invoked the Insurrection Act. And when GHWB did that in 1992, the soldiers deployed to LA were not given live ammunition.
I was in the midst of preparing a Morning Memo arguing that Minneapolis is shaping up to be the catalyzing moment that Trump was looking for to justify doing what he has wanted to do since his 1st term: invoke the Insurrection Act...when he posted exactly that:

This is how far you have to scroll on the NYTimes homepage to get any coverage of what's going on day-to-day in an occupied American city where schools are closing because the government is checking the papers of all brown or Asian people then brutalizing, imprisoning or killing them.

i can talk about how expensive celiac safe foods are all day!!!!!! it sucks!!!!!!! it is medically necessary and expensive!!!!!!!!!
Grocery prices are high right now. A decent pizza slice in NYC is $5. Almost no one wants to eat rice and beans all the time. And it's even more challenging if you have allergies, dietary restrictions, or certain disabilities. The Agriculture Secretary's comments are not realistic for most people.

I see this take around from time to time and totally disagree. ICE just murdered a woman standing up to them. No Kings is among the largest protests in history.
The complacency is coming from elites in media, business, universities, and the Democratic leadership

it's incredible how if you put this entire dialog into the Left Behind series, it would basically work, but instead it's just IRL MN
!["Sir! This is a warning!" the agent yelled as he punched the man's vehicle window. "Stop f—king following us! You are impeding operations! This is the United States federal government!"
"I live over here," the driver explained. "I got to get to my house."
"This is your warning!" the officer exclaimed.
"I serve the Lord; go to church," the resident replied.
"I will arrest you!" the officer threatened.
"Don't make a bad decision," another agent warned.
"I serve the Lord," the driver repeated. "Not a draft-dodging coward."
"Let these people go to church," the driver added. "Let these people serve the Lord and worship."
"You're not going to like the outcome of this, sir," the first officer said. "I guarantee that... Did you not learn from what just happened [when Renee Good was killed]?"
"Learn what?" the driver asked. "I serve the Lord, not a draft-dodging coward. I can't believe you'd take orders from a draft dodger."](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:hbpefio3f5csc44msmbgioxz/bafkreibjwvcxk2ptdafgbwfhk4rjalweyoz3d55gl72qhwhiudhu6aywcm@jpeg)

One thing I’d like to see is my senators and governor every day on tv at 5pm holding a press conference with video of every documented abuse that ICE is doing. Curate all of the witnessing we’re doing and show it to the press.
Local parents groups asking if adults can ride school buses to help protect children from ICE after a special ed bus got stopped this morning. Like a Dirty Harry movie except the villain in the federal government.
