Quote from Washington Times editorial board

"[Radical liberals] don't realize that, when they express contempt for the man who holds the country's highest office, they reveal their contempt for the Americans who put him there."

Uh no...we definitely realize it.

I know I said I hate short form videos, but I am making an exception for this cinema.

A children's hospital is renamed for Dolly Parton and hopes to transform pediatric care in Tennessee Dolly Parton’s name might inspire full-throated sing-a-longs to her working woman’s anthem β€œ9 to 5,” or evoke memories of thrilling days spent at her Dollywood theme park.

β€œDolly Parton Children’s Hospital did not share how much Parton donated as part of the naming announcement. But Matt Schaefer, its president and CEO, said her support would ensure β€˜every child who walks through our doors receives the treatment they deserve.’”

GOD BLESS DOLLY PARTON

Jayme Lawson from Sinners hit the nail on the head and said how I felt with the whole BAFTAs situation.

48 hours in…and the response to this year’s Grey List has been incredible.

Messages from managers.
Script requests.
New connections forming.

So grateful to everyone who has embraced what we're doing here. Hold on, 'cause we're just getting started!

Additionally, I want to speak directly to Iranian New Yorkers: you are part of the fabric of this city β€” you are our neighbors, small business owners, students, artists, workers, and community leaders.Β You will be safe here.

women will go to a hangout with a guy and things will be going well until the girl casually mentions she finished this book and he'll go home and start posting stuff like "Our future is ruined because of wokeness and women with fake degrees" meanwhile the girl went home to play video games with a bunch of weird discord transsexuals and she named her character "beegirl" and she keeps saying stuff like "i'm beegirl" and the discord transsexuals ask what kind of bee and she talks about carpenter bees for 10 minutes and everyone loves it and learns a lot

The Green victory in Denton is the result which will have the biggest effect on Labour, far more so than a Reform win.

The blithe assumption progressives have nowhere else to go has been proved catastrophically wrong.

Can’t help thinking of this quote from a Labour minister, a year ago…

Hannah Spencer wins Gorton and Denton for the Greens, Labour comes third – UK politics live Turnout in Gorton and Denton byelection over 47%, with 36,903 verified votes cast

Spencer took 41% of the vote all by herself. Neither Reform or Labour could break 30%.

Labour barely made it to 25%.

Get fucked, Starmer.

Rob Grant, along with Doug Naylor, created one of my favourite TV shows of all time. I haven’t stopped quoting it in nearly 40 years, and nor do I show any sign of stopping soon.

A scene from the Cat’s holy book - an illustration of Cloister the Stupid in white robe and purple cape, standing before a hot dog stand. Above him, a giant hot dog and donut. Above them, a rainbow.

A post on threads from user stephens_bens. It reads 'I'll always remember an interview with Steve Buscemi on Bulleye, Jesse Thorn asked him "As an actor with many decades of varied and outstanding roles across your career, does it ever bother you that one of the things you will most be remembered for is a 3-second gif in which you're wearing a backwards baseball cap and carrying a skateboard?"
And without missing a beat, Buscemi replied "I'm carrying *two* skateboards."
And you know what? He is.'
Below that is a screen cap of Buscemi's famous "fellow kids" moment.

I think often of the women in the Louis CK storyβ€”how they all left comedy and never went back, but he’s still going. It’s everywhere and it’s such a loss for them and for usβ€”for things they’ll never make that we’ll never see.

"There's Nothing I Enjoy More Than Acting In The Theater" - Ian McKellen EXTENDED INTERVIEW
YouTube video by The Late Show with Stephen Colbert "There's Nothing I Enjoy More Than Acting In The Theater" - Ian McKellen EXTENDED INTERVIEW

I’m having a hard time thinking of an interview between two human beings I enjoyed more than tonight’s interview of the great Ian McKellen by the great Stephen Colbert. Every moment of it was a pleasure that I highly recommend… but then came the most REMARKABLE ending that you really HAVE to watch.

A Rando on the Internet, who will not stand behind their work with name & reputation--that person has Gaiman's approval. WOMEN who have done serious reporting on Neil Gaiman?? Oh no, Bad, not Good.
Have pity, they cannot help it, for they are mere hysterical females

Every time you pop up, Neil:

Excerpt from the 2023 book Burn It Down: A magic amount of days or months are
spent out of the spotlightβ€”a
time frame determined by some toxic
wizard I’ve yet to locateβ€”and
then, presto! The harm-doer
and their
support systems can get back to the work of acquiring more money,
more opportunities, more glory, more chances to pretend nothing ever
happened. And was it really that bad? (That’s a real question an agent
asked about a man I reported on, less than a year after that man was
fired for gross misconduct.)

Two things: Rabbi Danya Ruttenberg wrote a great book, On Repentance & Repair, which is THEEE guidebook for making real amends and not doing this 'hey did everyone forget I'm a real piece of shit, we're good yeah?' bullshit that I'm so tired of I could scream:
