Do you think they had a writer who just came up with 'trick BA on to the plane' gags like the Simpsons couch gags

Margot Kidder, Olivia Hussey, and Andrea Martin in the 1974 classic Black Christmas.

a good reminder most people who actually know trans people have no problem with us and the entire genocidal movement is astroturfed by a handful of billionaires and has nowhere near the amount of people behind it that you’d think it does from its cultural footprint

“AI is clearly sticking around so you have to get used to it” wrong. I don’t have to get used to shit. I am a practiced hater and I can keep this going for decades if I am required to

I am so infuriated to be told this by someone who flopped around in feigned helplessness for four years that I don't even know where to start.

Running Out of Time, Republicans in Congress Still Lack a Health Plan

Mere weeks away from Jan 1, and the GOP still doesn't have a plan for A) lapsing ACA subsidies, and B) health care in general.

They've had 6 months to figure out the former (inc. a 2 month House vacation)

They've had 15 years to figure out the latter.

South Park Mourns the Death of Woke — Assigned An adult cartoon that reveled in the anti-woke backlash reckons with its impact.

Resistance libs welcomed South Park into the anti-Trump fold with open arms. Our founder Evan Urquhart was a bit less joyous to see the anti-woke edgelords of South Park recognize, at last, the dreadful pandora's box that widespread anti-wokeness opened up.

It's called 'Romeo.Juliet' and has never been given a VHS/ DVD or Bluray release. BUT THERE IS A COPY ON THE INTERNET ARCHIVE.

we need to abolish charter schools and actually deliver on the national responsibility for an integrated school system we took up during the reconstruction era

It will be like every evil rich egomaniac guy ever. MrBeast will be mired in scandal or perhaps simply decide he’s not worshipped enough & then just start trying to kill us like they all do. Except the only difference is that he already has an extensive global network of traps.

This is a problem.

Minneapolis police chief warns officers: Stop unlawful force by ICE or lose your job Chief Brian O’Hara says he’ll fire city police officers if they don’t intervene when immigration agents use unlawful force.

This is great. Very few people want to go to jail, get disbarred or die for this regime. Make them fight you. They will cave.

There's a lot of talk about how men create societal problems b/c they can't keep it in their pants but Olivia Nuzzi has created a generational health disaster because she thought leatherface was fuckable

Your name is still on our priority list, and I would truly hate to see you miss this opportunity.

Here's a WGA membership scam that's going around. Fake email address, fake registration page link. Also, there's no plain WGA (it's either WGA East or WGA West); & WGA is for ppl in the movie biz, and does _not_ exist "to advocate for standout indie authors like you"

She might not understand why that’s a question she needs to answer, but we should help her figure it out.

Root and branch, ICE must be dismantled and DHS completely remade

Kinda shocked by how bad the 70mm KILL BILL print is. Looks like they cheaped out and just blew up a 2K file. The black-and-white stuff is especially hideous.

The absence of Olivia Hussey's two-hands sweater in Black Christmas perplexes me.

Two years later, Reimer was convicted on two counts of aggravated assault and was sentenced to two years in jail. A number of other charges in both Alberta and Manitoba have been stayed or withdrawn over the years, including theft, mischief, intimidation and at least two other assaults. Kids crying during altercation On Feb. 25, Reimer showed up at the Seton Library for a Reading with Royalty event organized with Calgary Pride. The event was geared toward children who were six to eight years old. According to police, Reimer "aggressively entered a library classroom." During the incident, he is accused of shouting "homophobic and transphobic slurs," causing some of the children to cry, according to Lakhoo. The Crown says that, according to witness statements, Reimer bragged about getting three drag events cancelled in the previous eight days and said he planned to return to disrupt future events. Reimer was arrested days later at his home and charged with mischief and causing a disturbance.

The pastor has a history with the justice system in both Alberta and Manitoba with convictions including animal abuse and aggravated assault. In 2015 Reimer was handed 12 months probation after Calgary judge found him guilty of causing suffering to a dog. Between 2011 2013 in Winnipeg Reimer was convicted of two counts of aggravated assault and assault causing bodily harm.

The right in the US and the UK are all demanding a pastor in Canada be released for refusing to apologize over his religious beliefs.

What they're not telling you is that he is a dog torturer with a lifetime of assault charges who broke into a library to yell slurs at six year olds

I once went to a screening of Starship Troopers with writer Edward Neumeier doing a q&a. I asked him how he nailed the social satire in the film and Robocop so succinctly to real life. He said "imagine the worst case scenario, but make it funny, and it will probably come true."

"Paramount insiders debunk the notion that this new team is making “flyover state” films but readily admit they are building a slate focused on areas it sees as underserved by Hollywood, a move that mirrors Ellison’s work to reshape CBS News. The mogul has complained that the news business has been taken over by coastal elites out of touch with the American public, so it’s not surprising that he’s bringing the same ethos to his studio. One major emphasis is to develop broad, testosterone-laden tentpoles like a Call of Duty movie that Taylor Sheridan is writing and a $100 million-plus motorcross film directed by James Mangold and starring Timothée Chalamet, who would earn a career-high $25 million. (Mangold also has a new overall deal with the studio.) Paramount also is keen on making a Western with 1923 actor Brandon Sklenar."

the new CBS/Paramount is clearly dominated by dim, right wing dudebros, who want to make lowest common denominator bait for other, dim, white, right wing dudebros

It’s tragic that Barred’s statement below is true. I would modify it slightly to say that the Republican SCOTUS Justices don’t mind if POC who are registered to vote stand outside for hours waiting to vote and do finally get to vote, so long as those votes are effectively meaningless.

Sen Bill Cassidy, a liver-disease MD, complains about this ruling, as I am doing.

Here's the difference: He, personally, could have prevented all the resulting casualties, by casting the swing vote against RFK Jr. That's a power the other 330+ million of us lacked.

Don't let him forget it.
