I am extremely biased, but Emily Watson is just phenomenal in Hamnet. What a presence, always.

Trump suggests Khashoggi had it coming: "You're mentioning someone that was extremely controversial. A lot of people didn't like that gentleman that you're talking about. Whether you like him or didn't like him, things happen. But he knew nothing about it. You don't have to embarrass our guest."

is it subjective to call him a traitor if he keeps doing treasonous shit

It is genuinely incredible to me how much evidence there is to support investing in the public good and how much animus there is to do this simple, effective thing.

The new, vibrant 4K restoration of PARIS, TEXAS with a packed house audience. There are a few transcendent movies for me that are time portals — connective tissue to memories of mine — this was the first time I also meditated on future encounters I‘ll undoubtedly have with the film.
What is the best movie not from this year that you’ve seen this year? Bonus points if you say why

The average SNAP benefit per month is $177 a person.

The average ACA benefit per month is up to $550 a person.

People want us to hold the line for a reason. This is not a matter of appealing to a base. It’s about people’s lives.

And working people want leaders whose word means something to them.

Just finished office hours and when I tell you every single student started their meeting by saying how excited they are about Zohran. It’s been a while since I’ve seen them so hopeful. One student said “I needed a win.”

She's absolutely right. As a producer with several films in development with female directors, I can say it is an absolute uphill battle to get execs to fund their projects. Great scripts are sitting on shelves while a generation of our most talented women sit idle.

Here's another bit of conventional wisdom Zohran completely blew away: His speech was at well above a 10th-grade level. It was complex, erudite, punctuated by deep and fluent references. You don't have to condescend to voters with baby talk! Part of re-establishing norms is speaking like an adult.

much is made of mamdani's digital strategy, but all of that Posting went to proving that he lived in the real world, appealing to real people about real issues. this dynamic is something to watch as GOP (and center libs tbh) drift into the Posting ether of the X filter bubble

This line is still reverberating for me: “And yet, if tonight teaches us anything, it is that convention has held us back. We have bowed at the altar of caution, and we have paid a mighty price.”
