Come to think of it…
If I’m a PBS station and running out of federal money to license or produce new programs because of you-know-what, I’d keep playing Rick Steve’s The Story of Fascism in Europe Special to fill the time slot in protest.
Yes I’m watching that program at this moment.

CBS lied about cancelling James Talarico. If the reason actually was “fair use” then Colbert could have just booked Jasmine Crockett. Talarico’s opponent is not Republicans John Cornyn or Ken Paxton. It is Jasmine Crockett who has appeared on the View and Colbert with no threat from FCC. #USD #PB

He always does this step. Say something outrageous to "test the water". If the pushback is not strong enough to hurt his popularity/ego he'd move forward in the most nasty way, and praise himself after "I said I'd do it and I did it and it is great". Stay vigilant.
Yes, Donald. There is “a little something out there” saying you can't run again, it's called the Constitution.

Did you know that this writing in the newest #MandalorianandGrogu trailer actually reads, "Weathers Apollo," serving as a tribute to the late Carl Weathers. 💔
Weathers appeared as Greef Karga in several episodes of the first season of the #StarWars series, #TheMandalorian.

Civil rights leader Jesse Jackson has passed away at the age of 84. My thoughts are with his family.
I wanted to share this clip from his appearance on Sesame Street in 1971. His important words ring just as true today as they did back then.

Saddened by the loss of civil rights giant Jesse Jackson. Rev. Jackson never stopped advocating for the most marginalized among us, and pushing America to live up to its ideals.
May his memory be a blessing, and may we carry on his legacy by continuing the fight for a more just world.

Just hope he burns that place down (figuratively, to its terrible leadership nowadays) before he steps out of the door. Go spend the most budget to do something they don't dare airing to push them to show it to recoup cost.

Sam Raimi tells us how to make the perfect mixture for fake blood.
“A good thick mix of karo syrup, red food coloring, a little blue to give it that unaerated look, and a bit of coffee to make it dark... I don’t mean to brag but hello, I’m here, I know how to throw blood.”

RIP Duvall.
I went scrolling through his filmography in IMDb, wondering if I’d highlight his Apocalypse Now role.
There are only two categories: films he had a stellar performance, and films that I have yet watched.
He is always so very watchable.
