Cultural illiteracy seems to be a persistent trait with conservatives. Whether it’s completely missing the point of Born in the USA, to getting angry that Start Trek is “woke” (which is and has been the mission statement of the series since Rodenberry created it 60 years ago), to consistently failing to understand the …

The fact these bigots have used ‘YMCA’ at their events gives some sense of their lack of self-awareness / idiocy, but it is also damn funny.

I get the creepy suspicion this guy has been sitting on the other side of his front door for weeks/months/years with a loaded gun, hoping and praying someone would give him the tiniest reason to pull the trigger.

Even in retirement, Day-Lewis’ commitment to the craft of acting is unparalleled. He’s unrecognizable in this photo; looks like a rumpled old man easily 20 years older and a foot shorter than I imagined him to be.

Subway kind of had it figured out when they were pitching themselves as a healthy(ish) budget lunch option. I feel like the food quality was better, but now it seems like they’re trying to compete with actual sub places, but there’s just no comparison to a place like Jersey Mike’s or Firehouse.

Couple possibilities:

I still have no idea why Gutierrez-Reed didn’t take a plea deal.

I mean, there’s no way her lawyers thought the testimony would be in her favor, right?

I respect Sandler and also find him vexing.

The US has repeatedly vetoed UN Security Council resolutions calling for a cease fire, and has pledged some $14B in military aid to Israel.

Tell me you don’t know where your tax money is going without telling me etc. etc.

I saw Lewis perform in Atlantic City. I don’t remember the exact year, just that it was during the Iraq War and the Bush presidency. And Lewis wasn’t “funny” per say, so much as he wandered and rambled around the stage just absolutely tearing a new asshole into Bush for 50 minutes or whatever it was.

My point is that the actions of the state of Israel are currently making diaspora Jews less safe. I don’t think that’s in dispute at this point.

Except the closest we ever came to a two state solution was almost thirty years ago, when I was in high school.

“Were there no Israel, there’s not a Jew in the world [that would] be safe”

Israel is an omelette that can’t be unscrambled. A two state solution is the only road forward. The alternatives are unthinkable. I support Palestinian statehood and for Israel to withdraw from the West Bank. I also want unrepentant fascists like Netanyahu to be punished for their crimes. Everyone needs to put…

I see a lot of folks calling out Gyllenhaal which I frankly find surprising given Fassbender, who once had a restraining order, is in the mix.

Michael Fassbender <-- this man

Populace.

I have no particular feelings about Sara as a person, I’m just here to note proper pronoun usage.

nonbinary people are allowed to have “gendered” sounding names!
