Boycott Sals

Noting Rowling’s vast financial success, Barker felt that Rowling’s newfound position of fame ought to exclude her from discussing trans rights. He added, “It really just seems redundant for a woman as successful, as validated in the world, as Ms Rowling, to be negative, to be disruptive if you will, to a very beaten up subculture. These are human beings. She has no right to opine, I think, upon the lives of human beings that she does not know.” “I feel very protective of people who are on the edge of our culture as gay people still are,” Barker continued. “And certainly transgender people are on the edge of our culture. And here you have one of the most successful people in the frigging world – Ms Rowling. Going after a very emotionally vulnerable portion of our culture. It just seems unnecessary and unfair.”

Clive Barker gets it.

Something I wrote once, kinda but not really about a boy named Kurt.

There are 32m small businesses in the USA

Who did this?

Ahem.

The greatest character reveal in cinema history. #doof

What a perfect day for Newsmax to ring the opening bell on the stock exchange.

Wait until reality sets in for these astronauts, returning to a science community under attack from those who will undoubtedly co-opt their travails for a photo-op.

We’re doomed.

19-20 months from now, Trump will have pushed the economy off a cliff and left the civil service a smouldering husk. If you're a Democratic elected and you think a government shutdown from a CR fight is gonna be the thing voters remember, you need your fucking head examined.

The GOP passed a budget resolution tonight that will gut Medicaid, SNAP, and other vital programs — as 60% of Americans live paycheck to paycheck.

Why? To finance more tax cuts for the top 1%.

We have socialism in this country for the rich, harsh capitalism for everyone else.

I’ve somehow seen more of Molly Shannon in the last two weeks than I have the last twenty years.

The slow-climb to being a Sidney Lumet completist starts with an idiosyncratic heist film that seemingly birthed Soderbergh. Not perfect, but highly rewatchable.

Dying in a hideous plane crash because the world’s most racist and unlovable nerds couldn’t handle a 45 minute HR training.

So good to see all the cancelled folk got their get out jail free cards for the #snl50 celebrations this weekend.

how fast are boot-cut jeans going to sell out tonight

The badasses play without yellow.

Such a troll this one. Somewhere Mel Gibson is getting a tuxedo fitted.

Still can’t stop thinking about the binary nature of American elections, a few hundred thousand votes in three states all the distance between just normal stuff and armed officers keeping House reps out of the department of education and a guy named Big Balls canceling everyone’s Medicare

Today's job report was much weaker than expected. Here's why that's bad news for Joe Biden.

Motherfucker.

Oh go on - let everyone know you’re talking about Patrice: The Movie

Look at you Ardmore. But not one mention of Felicia’s Pizza?

On a second viewing, I imagined what MAGAmerica would think of this film. Trump would never put himself in the shoes this film puts the viewer into. His actions would seem to indicate the experience is below him. And that is beyond sad to the point of good trouble.

#nickleboys is such an amazing work of artful empathy. Staggeringly political for this moment we find ourselves in, where once again we reach for the stars as a symbol of progress, while willingly diminishing the promise of too many.

I remember watching Star Wars as a kid and asking myself, who would voluntarily join the dark side? I understood Darth Vader's motivation, but not the stormtrooper's.

The cognitive dissonance of getting up every morning and making coffee and walking the dog and going to meetings and answering emails and wondering what to make for dinner while there is a real live actual coup d’etat happening is BONKERS
