Teaching a history of cinema class and showing The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance to students in 2026 is…interesting

Of course a president whose politics mirror those of Archie Bunker would dance on the grave of Rob Reiner

I feel like we need a completely bonkers quote from John Fetterman just to finish out the week

Odd that there is so much vilifying of cities as crime-filled cesspools when most of these sho0ters come from isolated, predominantly white, car-dependent suburban/rural towns. Lonely places with few options for communing with others

Some of y'all can't handle two high-agency males going at it, and it really shows.

Just a quick reminder: the government is supposed to spend money on things, with our tax dollars (other than police/war). That’s not indicative of waste or fraud. It’s not a business and doesn’t need to make a profit. The profit is having a healthy, livable society for all.

I really wish he skipped the calls for bipartisanship and platitudes about America’s glory days and made it more clear what Democrats will do to move us out of the situation we find ourselves in

Yeah, this really is the proper way to have a society. And it wasn’t always controversial, but as soon as people of color started benefiting from public services white people opted to burn it all down

In a just world this would end Gavin Newsom’s political career but he’s just gonna keep going further and further until he’s hosting snl and picking fights with AOC

Dear Manager, here’s my list of 5 accomplishments from last week:

3. Hitting on the moonshine
4. Rocking in the grain
5. Got no time to pack my bags, my foot’s outside the door

So many Super Bowl ads using images of diversity and inclusion to sell products while the actual apparatus to create a diverse and inclusive society is being dismantled by baby brained, cowardly autocrats

The Philadelphia Eagles were named, in 1933, to honor Franklin Delano Roosevelt’s National Recovery Administration, part of the New Dealβ€”the NRA’s Blue Eagle stood for protection of labor and federal oversight of the U.S. economy (pic: Library of Congress)
