Friends, it is once again that time of the year when I ask for your help in traveling to a DNC Meeting. From December 11th - 13th, the DNC will convene in Los Angeles! And I can tell you one thing for sure that is going to be top of mind for me - the 2028 Presidential Primary Calendar. 1/
IT: Welcome to Derry E04, The Great Swirling Apparatus of Our Planet's Function

✅ Amazing title
✅ IT appearances are good, some are all timers
✅ Black Spot!
✅ Telescope actually good jump scare
✅ The interrogation and story are cool, but
❌ Skeptical about meteor cage plot

IT: Welcome to Derry E03, Now You See It

✅✅ Dick Hallorann plot remains strong and meeting IT was perfect
✅ Great final shot
✅ 1908 scenes work very well
〰️ Like the set up for the graveyard scene, but
❌❌ the graveyard chase looks AWFUL, not at all scary, horrible effects

This shutdown is the first time in the entire Trump administration that I have felt @democrats.senate.gov and @schumer.senate.gov rose to the occasion and met the moment we’re in. Folding now and giving up healthcare for millions when we just won a blue wave election is appalling malpractice.
Any “deal” that ends with Dems just getting a pinky promise in return is a mistake.

The American people are suffering because Republicans refuse to stop healthcare costs from skyrocketing. An agreement that doesn’t fix that reality falls massively short.

It feels to me like #atxcouncil did not have the political capital needed to marshal progressives after burning so much of it to pass the police contract that did a lot to put us into this budget mess in the first place. And thanks to the #txlege, now everything will see cuts EXCEPT for APD.

Is this the year where I find out if the red light therapy stuff really does help

To paraphrase someone, in the 2028 primary, the mainstream position is going to begin with “abolish ICE.”
"I think they haven't gone far enough," says President Trump, defending ICE raids. In one case, ICE tackled a young mother and in another tear gas was used in a residential neighborhood.

IT: Welcome to Derry E02, The Thing in the Dark

✅✅ Significantly stronger episode
✅ Better IT appearances
✅ Hanlons are great
✅ Military makes sense
✅ Excellent title sequence
❌ Andy Muschietti’s CGI always comes off rubbery
❌And he way overdoes fast-run-at-camera scares

IT: Welcome to Derry E01, The Pilot

✅✅ Big fan of the proto-Loser Ka-tet fake out
✅ Setting is solid
✅ Most IT appearances are good
➖Easter eggs are okay but a bit heavy handed
❌ Baby design doesn’t do it for me
❌ Hard to suspend disbelief about the military base assault

Join us this evening for a conversation with my friend Dan the Democrat and @men4choice.bsky.social! For decades, Texas has been on the frontline of reproductive freedom and abortion rights, from Roe v. Wade to vigilante witch hunts. So much to talk about - hope to see y’all there!

Listening to this new Chappell Roan album “The Father of Death,” it’s really a new sound for her

While I do think Andor should sweep and win basically everything it’s in, especially for S02E08 Who Are You, the lack of acting nominations is just yet another example of how acting in genre work is considered less-than.

See also: Toni Collette in Hereditary.
ANDOR is nominated for the following awards at tomorrow’s Emmys 🏆

• Best Drama Series
• Best Directing for a Drama Series - Janus Metz for ‘Who Are You’
• Best Writing for a Drama Series - Dan Gilroy for ‘Welcome to the Rebellion’

Then what was even the point of drawing him this dog water ass district to connect his house in West Austin to East Texas

Sometimes the algorithm gets things right, and then sometimes it provides “personalized concert recommendations” for artists you’ve never heard of in your life

I happily and enthusiastically endorse my Representative, James Talarico, for U.S. Senate. He has done an excellent job representing our district in the Texas Legislature, and he’s the exact kind of person that we want to have on our side, fighting for us in D.C.!
I’m running for the U.S. Senate.

Billionaires have taken over Texas and taken over America — but together, we can take power back for working people.
