Is Norvell going to get fired before Napier? That's a huge upset in itself.

I watched it when I first moved to Texas and didn't really vibe with it until the final 1/3 of the movie when the movie goes off the rails with the family.

I mean I just didn't expect such a biting (pun intended?) critique of the American nuclear family!

So funny! So, so despairing! It really does meet the moment.

I was waiting for your post as soon as I saw that divine play design by Mr. Grubb.

Read this book around the same time I finished The Righteous Gemstones. At a certain point, I started hearing every Dr. Symes line in the voice of Baby Billy. It felt so right.

Yes I am evangelical about telling people that I bought a Blu-Ray player and rent tons of things I want to watch through the public library system!

Especially for anything before like 2010. Like I just checked and not a single one of Robert Redford's classics are on the major streaming services.

Yeah good point. Bluesky never beating the can't understand a joke allegations.

Is this really not satire? Please tell me they're making a joke.

Wild how political alliance with Zionism sweeps all sorts of wild statements about Jews under the table

The silver lining of the Texas gerrymander is no more Cuellar and Vicente Gonzalez in Congress.

being totally comfortable speaking this way to millions of people is one of many signals that we're in an extremely dark place

If I have any credibility with you from 20 years of reporting on rightwing & fascist movements, please listen when I beg you not to celebrate Charlie Kirk getting shot. Leave aside morality: this isn’t a match in dry grass, it’s a torch. We do not want what this could ignite & we would not win.

One of the many bitter pills to swallow is that there will be not one single consequence for Jerry Seinfeld basically complimenting the KKK and equating them to the phrase Free Palestine. There will be little, if any, media pushback. It’s terrible.

Why does man yearn to remember the Florida Marlins of his youth?

Manifesting a Lina Khan run 🙏

He’s also quite anti-union too, which I think supports what you’re saying.

Texas DA who charged abortion patient with murder accused of once paying for one Three years after Texas prosecutors charged a woman with murder for inducing her own abortion, the local district attorney is accused of paying for an abortion while having an affair decades ago.

A South Texas DA once paid for his mistresses’s abortion — then charged a woman who had one with murder even though it wasn’t against the law at the time, according to new court filings in a wild case testing the limits of prosecutorial immunity www.houstonchronicle.com/news/houston...

For confused people in the comments, this clip is from the greatest video @clickhole.bsky.social ever produced. I learned so much from it.

Did you ever see the clip of Agassi and Sampras sniping at each other at a charity match? Nadal and Federer just standing there looking like they want to disappear. www.youtube.com/watch?v=4QSK...

I think they'd have a better chance running against the "we're all going to die" senator instead of an open seat?

"I can't believe The New York Times did this" Trans kids? Claudine Gay? Gaza? At some point we have to stop being surprised. The right sees the Times as a vehicle for laundering its conspiracy theories and injecting it into elite America and the Times is very happy to oblige them.

alright time to primary hakeem jeffries

Just A Serious Man. Their best film.

NYT headline: How the Transgender Rights Movement Bet on the Supreme Court and Lost Here's the inside story of the case that could set the movement back a generation.

This framing is beneath contempt. The Christian right and MAGA launched an unprecedented assault on the civil rights of a tiny minority and successfully weaponized the pseudoliberal establishment - led by the NYT - to provide it with a medical controversy pretext that doesn’t actually exist.

A screenshot of Inskeep's interview with Palestinian writer Yousri Alghoul that says INSKEEP: What is your feeling right now about Hamas? ALGHOUL: Just listen to me, my friend. If you ask me about what happened of the 7 October and blah, blah, blah, blah, what happened before 6 of October? What happened in the West Bank, which is the Hamas, not a part of the government in the West Bank. The Israelis always killing the Palestinians, even in the Gaza Strip and in the West Bank.

You're saying the same Steve Inskeep who last month asked a Palestinian writer enduring an ethnic cleansing if he condemns Hamas also gave a softball interview to Portnoy? Appalling "journalism."

not sure there's a more embarrassing profession than ICE agent. Oh, you dress like a soldier to abduct sous chefs and throw flashbangs at protesters? Get a real job you loser

As a Panthers fan, will we get a montage of the Game 2 OT winner? I enjoyed/suffered through the Game 1 OT multilingual calls. Excited to be on right side of the compilation.

Love all the technology making our lives better

Dallas and Fort Worth are both top 5. But no idea what the rest are (especially since it's no longer a San Diego nor Jacksonville).

Wilmer only found out his son had been detained after receiving a phone call on March 15 from his nephew, Luis, who lives with them. That morning was their last time together; they had gone around the corner to do their laundry. Later that day, Wilmer said that his son met with a friend to get help with some errands at the American Red Cross. He learned this from Luis, who looked at the situation from inside the apartment: when his son was on his way back, just steps from his home when ICE agents stopped him. “The officers grabbed him and two other boys right at the entrance to our building. One said, ‘No, he’s not the one,’ like they were looking for someone else. But the other said, ‘Take him anyway.'” That moment marked the beginning of Wilmer’s search for answers — answers he’s still waiting for.

One of hundreds of people abducted by ICE and sold to slavery in El Salvador was a 19 year old with no criminal record in the US or Venezuela and no tattoos of any kind.

An ICE kidnapper who grabbed him outside his house said, "He's not the one."

The other said, "Take him anyway."

So they did.
