I’m not one to horn-toot but I am so happy to have received my first Emmy nomination for this show and for these characters I love playing so dang much... and so very grateful to be sharing a category with my incredible friends.

I was convinced this would never happen.

I treasure this nomination.

They will murder my family and this is all they will do about it, pretend that our killers don't know what theyre doing

An ICE employee was among 16 men arrested after trying to solicit a minor for sex in Bloomington, Minnesota, police say

"When he was arrested, he said, 'I'm ICE, boys,'" Bloomington Police Chief Booker Hodges said during a press conference. "Well, unfortunately for him, we locked him up."

Rewatching the classics. I might have to make a Sorcerer / Wages of Fear one shot some day. Jenga mechanics? Seems like a good start.

West of Zanzibar title card

Lon Chaney in stage suit, top hat and exaggerated moustache stands next to a coffin open to reveal a skeleton

Lon Chaney again, but this time shaven headed, sat in a chair on a veranda with a background of a jungle. In Chaney's lap sits a monkey that is hugging him.

Chaney, in a wheelchair, his hand around his throat, an expression of anguish on his face

West of Zanzibar (1928, dir Tod Browning) is a wildly inappropriate, grotesque, lurid Lon Chaney exploitation flick (all compliments). Magician Phroso follows the man who ruined his life down to Africa and executes a slow, ruthless revenge. Chaney is phenomenal, the entire thing deeply suspect fun.

Calvin Duncan wins Orleans clerk of court race - Verite News New Orleans Duncan, a political newcomer and former prisoner, defeated incumbent Darren Lombard by a wide margin in Saturday's runoff.

a big runoff last night, in New Orleans:

Calvin Duncan was exonerated after spending *28 years* in prison; he tried to get his own case records from the New Orleans city clerk—but the office dragged its feet.

So Duncan ran to become city clerk himself, and yesterday ousted the incumbent.

I think based on everything we know people are underestimating the possibility that Larry Summers deliberately sabotaged Obama rather than shot down a larger stimulus out of stupidity.

I remember having to buy a newspaper to check movie times.

Open Source Power We have to talk about open source licensing.

“The result has been an ineffectual "open source revolution" that maintains the status quo of our modern day hellscape by facilitating an upwards transfer of wealth and power, amassed by the hyperscalers who are now entering their final, fascistic form.”

You kids think saying numbers is cool? 67? How 'bout 9/11? Still having fun? Didn't think so.

Starbucks’ CEO makes 6,666x what the average @sbworkersunited.org barista does. It would take less than one day of sales to finalize a fair contract.

Baristas at Starbucks corporate stores nationwide are on strike to fight this corporate greed and get the fair contract they deserve.

What I wonder about the bj is what transaction was made. What was Trump getting in return?

MTG, welcome to the Resistance.
