Jessica Ellis

I adored it, right in the vein with a Capra film. It’s old fashioned but a gem.

Keanu Reeves gives the very best performance I have ever seen in GOOD FORTUNE, and I’m not kidding that it should’ve gotten at least Golden Globe notice. A totally delightful film.

NO DUCKS RIDING MOTORCYCLES

I mean, so does war, supposedly

Just saw Newsom tell Katie Couric he can’t be anti-trans because he has a trans godson. Last time I checked, using a vulnerable minority member as a prop is generally not a great sign.

I HATE DAYLIGHT SAVINGS

I keep seeing this photo and thinking it’s Andie McDowell.

Why are circles the only shape that can be vicious?

They’re a troll, don’t bother

He’s hosting SNL

Is Ryan Gosling…very ill?? He sounds like he’s about to keel over.

They cut them out, that’s what they’re saying.

It reads like he’s been tortured in the Disney dungeons

So sorry this is happening man, you deserve better.

Please check out Matt’s great bookstore!

Call me crazy but I think someone is a lot more likely to need extensive therapy if their sexuality is treated as something to be hidden rather than if they see a gay person exists.

The customer is always broke

I like larping the best!

This is genuinely a blast

True!

I don’t think we do disagree, honestly. I wish the left had voted for her, but I understand not voting when a candidate has made a deliberate choice to not only deprioritize your issues but used that deprioritization to appeal to people who think you shouldn’t exist, for instance.

Exxxxactly. Which is why I am saying the campaign made a strategic mistake in who to appeal to, and the left is not the primary group to blame.

What is happening today. Did RFK remove some kind of vital nutrient for thinking from Cheerios?

And again, this completely ignores the responsibility of the people who she was catering to, the center-right and independents, who actively voted *against* her.

You brought your personal attitude into the conversation.

I don’t disagree.

And do you think showing disdain for members of the left who didn’t vote is likely to get them to vote next time?

I swear to god, there is nothing to lose from honestly assessing past mistakes that caused your party to lose an election and choosing to adapt your strategy, rather than doubling down on the exact same failed ideas and saying “well, by NOW people have learned their lesson.”
