It has a helluva cast, too — Tim Robbins, Ray Wise, Alan Rickman, Giancarlo Esposito, John Cusak, Jack Black, Gore Vidal, Bob Balaban, David Strathairn… and a TON of cameos.

Police don’t wear masks. State troopers don’t wear masks. The National Guard doesn’t wear masks. But you know who does?
White supremacists, militia groups, insurrectionists, and ICE.

Also, my father’s final words to me were to continue to fight the good fight. He would be honored in Alex’s sacrifice, and ashamed of this current administration.
In my dad’s words, I encourage you all to continue to “fight the good fight.”
Yep, Ross put his phone in his left hand because he had decided he was going to shoot that “fucking bitch” for disrespecting him, and needed to free his dominant hand. Totally premeditated.

Tazers & handcuffs only.
If they are going after *actual* dangerous criminal aliens then they can remove firearms from a locked trunk right before they begin the operation.
Too many of these cowboys are under-trained, power-tripping hotheads who shouldn’t carry lethal weapons.

HEADS UP: The U.S. Postal Service quietly changed how postmarks work. Mail is no longer automatically postmarked with the date you drop it off. Instead, the postmark now reflects the date it’s first processed by an automated sorting facility — which can be days later. If you mail something right at a deadline, the official postmark could be later than your drop-off date and may be considered late. If mailing date matters to you, go inside the post office and request a hand-stamped postmark.
🤔 What reason would they have to make people distrust the postal service?!

Revisiting one of my favorite Rob Reiner films, STAND BY ME, which I probably watch about once a year. And then this. That last line always hit me hard, especially after the untimely death of my own best friend from age 12, but tonight the first line stopped me cold. Farewell to a true GOAT.
