NEWS: The Trump administration confirmed it bombed a girl’s school in Iran.
It's one of the most devastating military errors in decades.
Trump lied about it. Pete Hegseth gutted the office preventing civilian casualties.
175 are dead. Most were kids. Hegseth should be fired.
We could all have a pretty great Tribute to Screenwriters Who Just Died triple-feature weekend and watch Bullitt, The Thomas Crown Affair, and The Candidate. Nobody would regret a minute of it.
RIP Alan Trustman and Jeremy Larner.
Pouring one out for the ghosts of Louise Brooks, Billy Wilder, and every gorgeous chorine in every fab Warner Brothers pre-code musical, you and so many others built studios that don't deserve your legacy.
I just watched The Devil is Busy, one of the Oscar-nominated doc shorts--an extraordinary portrait of a woman who runs security at a women's healthcare clinic in Atlanta.
A hugely worthy film on HBO Max. If Paramount gets WBD, can't imagine it being given this showcase. If Netflix does, I can.
Thank God for Virginia Giuffre. She deserves so much credit for her bravery and tenacity. She, along with other survivors who refused to be quiet, made this happen.
A sweeping boycott has begun — targeting tech giants who participants believe are enabling President Trump and his immigration crackdown.

Yet another epic failed indictment by U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro. You just can’t fool citizens on a grand jury with MAGA propaganda. Why doesn’t DOJ stop embarrassing itself with political vendettas and actually investigate the Epstein ring?
alexa ai ad: we'll fucking kill you lmao
🚨 Epstein survivors release this powerful PSA in advance of the Super Bowl demanding answers from the Justice Department. This is the Super Bowl ad every American should see. Spread it everywhere.
This, from Esther Perel on relationships is what I worry about in writing as well: figuring out what you think on the page requires that tolerance for experimenting, for uncertainty, for being wrong. Bringing in the bot for "brainstorming" or "filling the blank page" means not developing that /1
Jeff Bezos destroyed the Washington Post because he couldn't admit that he didn't know how to run a newspaper, and also because he felt entitled to turn it into his personal plaything. Both are functions of his ego, his greed, his heedlessness, and his insecurity. What a dark day.
whoever figures out a way to bundle independent journalism subscriptions will be a hero
happening this morning in Minneapolis -- ICE agents drawing guns on observers. I reiterate again that it is only a matter of time before DHS kills more innocent people in Minnesota. Congress needs to shut this shit down right now.
Not pictured: Haruki Murakami’s wife, or indeed whoever is cooking, cleaning, paying bills, running errands, doing the laundry, answering emails, etc
like yea his routine is goals, but let’s not lie to ourselves about all the invisible work others are doing to enable him to have that routine

How bad are the Epstein files that the US government is willing to invade the whole world?
"What do you think the Devil's gonna look like if he's around? He will be attractive. He'll be nice and helpful. He'll get a job where he influences a great God-fearing nation. He'll never deliberately hurt a living thing. He'll just, bit by little bit, lower our standards where they're important."

I cannot stand it when people thank Jesus for their Golden Globes. Don't they know that He does not get involved in precursor awards?
“That’s fine, dude. I’m not mad at you.”
Does this look like a “domestic terrorist”?
@KristiNoem needs to resign.
@JDVance owes her son an apology.
Shame on everyone.
Next time you look at your greatly increased monthly bill for healthcare, remember that Republicans chose to use the money set aside for supplements to defray your costs to, instead, invade Venezuela to make ExxonMobil even richer.
Thank them with your votes.
But how could you engage in pedagogy through a mask????
