It never feels like the right time to promote anything frivolous, but my birthday is tomorrow and it appears I'll be stuck at home sick, so I posted my short Concept High publicly. It's under 6 minutes and played the Austin Film Fest last year and I dare say it's fun www.youtube.com/watch?v=h05s...

you could fact check this — there aren’t 30 million illegal immigrants and there is no evidence that the presence of an immigrant in say houston has any impact on housing in madison, wisconsin — or you could note straightforwardly that this is just nazi rhetoric
JD Vance: "A lot of young people are saying housing is way too expensive. Why is that? Because we flooded the country with 30 million illegal immigrants who were taking houses that ought by right go to American citizens."

pedophilia is the president's worst issue
Enten: "Trump is 39 below water on the Epstein case. 39 points in the negative! My goodness gracious. What Trump has been selling on the Epstein files, the Epstein case, the American people have not been buying at all ... less than half of Republicans are buying it. This is his worst issue by far"

I think an underrated function of conspiracy theories is that they prevent us from noticing the actual collusion of forces that harms and collectively assails us; noticing this would be more painful than believing in even the most evil and outlandish conspiracy, because it is actually true
It is hard to get over that the Q-Anon folks spent years feverishly looking in pizza parlors for the cabal of rich, elite pedophiles and it turns out THERE WAS ONE, right in front of their noses, which they failed to identify and instead voted for three times in a row.

As a reminder, allegedly NBC had lots of video footage from The Apprentice of Trump being wildly racist that has been locked in a vault or deleted forever. And I allegedly know someone in NYC who worked on the crew who told me firsthand that it’s allegedly true. www.theguardian.com/us-news/arti...

CLAIM: The government is run by a secret society of pedophiles
RATING: FALSE. This society is in no way a secret

Blocked the person who said it was ableist to mock the grammar in the Epstein emails, because the main point of blocking is not to punish, but to avoid having to see what a certain person posts ever again.

Get ready for some Profiles in Courage as a bunch of Republicans suddenly discover their spine in the face of an increasingly unpopular president.
Thomas Massie to CNN on the Epstein files: "This vote is gonna be on your record for longer than Trump is gonna be president. And what are you gonna do in 2028 and 2030 when you're in a debate … and they say, 'How can we trust you? You covered up for a pedophile back in 2025.'"

along with the heinous literal crimes i think a lot about how there's a kind of moral, national crime in subjecting all of us to this, to this consuming our politics, committed against us by a number of powerful and connected people up to and including the president

This is not legal advice but:

Everyone can now publicly say “Donald Trump is a pedophile.”

Suing for defamation would open him up to discovery and draw more attention. And as a public figure, he must meet a higher standard. He’d have to prove you knew it was false — which you very much don’t.
Can we just take a minute and acknowledge that our POTUS is right OUT IN THE OPEN lobbying Congressional members to vote against releasing the Epstein files?! Like... what the fuck else does anyone even need to know?

Anyway, though all this seems bad for Trump, I think we have to consider the gains he will make in the modern Libertarian Party

Visited my parents tonight. My dad mentioned chameleons, so I couldn't resist quoting Tracy from 30 Rock and doing my best version of his delivery. "I can't change! I'm like a chameleon--always a lizard." My mom, who has very advanced Alzheimer's and is mostly non-verbal, laughed out loud at length.

so glad the child sexual abuse panic was squarely pointed at folks like me by the people actually doing it & the public was like “yeah, seems right—freaks did it. not the men with all the money & fighting to keep child marriage legal, the women that are legal to kill in 30 states if you’re nervous.”
What a great day for finding out that a lot of things people thought were conspiracies are actually backed up by emails that are like hey pedo, let us pedo together in pedoland on the second day of the pedo month

It didn’t go far enough. It never went far enough.
Today is a good day to remember, and to say, that the #MeToo movement was right, and was righteous, and has been vindicated over and over again. There was no overreach. There was no excess. There was no they-went-too-far.

So much work remains to be done.
