Wow wow this thread. 🧵 This man! What a gift & example.
It’s the “season of love and giving”…but this year, doesn’t it seem more like a “season of fear and taking”? Like many of you, I’ve been saddened by the human impact of draconian government budget cuts and how angry many housed Americans are at unhoused Americans.

This is a stunning column.
Column: “Being Charlie,” based on Nick Reiner’s own addiction and mental health struggles, is more heartbreaking in retrospect — a film about the tormented relationship between a young addict and his famous father.
Column | The unbearable sadness of the movie Rob Reiner made with his son
Rob Reiner made “Being Charlie” in 2015 with his son Nick Reiner. The fictionalized account of a son’s battle with addiction is all the more heartbreaking now.

The cultural impact of Rob Reiner cannot be understated. Legend isn't big enough a word. It goes to 11. You can't handle the truth. As you wish. I'll have what she's having. I'm your number one fan. You guys wanna see a dead body? The very idea of a bucket list. The West Wing.

All from his movies.

Please tell me this all gets reversed in January, 2029

Also, I can't wait for a Democrat to pull that gold plastic trash off the Oval Office
In a post on X tonight, the State Department says it “renamed the former Institute of Peace to reflect the greatest dealmaker in our nation's history.”

“Welcome to the Donald J. Trump Institute of Peace.”

My brother has ID. I am his legal guardian. This story makes me want to throw up. My brain just breaks, never mind my heart.
Emmanuel, a 15-year-old with intellectual disabilities, wandered away from his mom’s fruit stand in October.

She reported him missing to Houston police. But instead of reuniting them, the city turned him over to ICE.

“They’re failing all of us,” his mom said.

In 1945, the US Army put out a training manual intended to help rank and file soldiers spot incipient fascism in the US. One of the telltale signs that one was dealing with a fascist was that they called everyone to their left "a communist." bsky.app/profile/seth...
The third fascistic tactic to watch out for is their tendency to label anyone they disagree with who is to their left "a Communist." Fascists claim that they alone can save their nations from "the communist menace." Anyway, the 2024 GOP platform contains the phrase "Christ-hating communists."

Remember a few weeks ago when Trump brought in a couple bulldozers and demolished about a third of the White House? That was weird.

“History shows us that the right to literacy came at a heavy cost…those oppressed recognized that literacy is liberation. To my students & to anyone who might listen, I say: Don’t surrender to AI your ability to read, write & think when others once risked their lives & died for the freedom to do so”

"By any consistent standard, if Summers is unfit to work for each of these institutions [from which he resigned], he is equally unfit to teach at our school. Harvard should not be the only institution in America where Summers remains above reproach."

Summers should choose the most straightforward path and resign. Should he refuse to, though, the University must cut ties with its former president to the greatest extent possible.
