No DMs. I'm from the Central time zone. I like liking things. People are inherently good. I do theatre and film sometimes. I'm getting greyer and rounder, but that's okay.

Our dreams are beautiful. Our fate is sad. But, somewhere in the middle, it's all kinda funny.
Given that so much high-level policy making is announced via that Truth Social account, are we okay that unknown "staffers" can post things that could catastrophically disrupt global security/markets?

Sadly, I think this is accurate. "Hate the Libs," as a strategy, has been effective.

I went to a Cajun place for lunch. Then Drew Brees was announced as a first-ballot Hall of Famer.

Drew, buddy, I knew we could do it.

"Own the Libs, protect children from rapists... own the Libs, protect children from rapists.... What if we own the Libs but only protect children from Liberal rapists, is that close enough?"

Had a fream last night where I was at a casino in Vegas and talked Sir Patrick Stewart down from an acid trip. This was after Pete Townshend secretly slipped me his room keys.

OU School of Drama, late 20th century. I'm on the far-right. Unlike my politics.

Far as I'm concerned, Kid Rock is Canadian until I see his long-form birth certificate.

Hm. I feel like there may be a different standard Musk is using, but I can't quite put my finger on it.
Weird how no one is making a big fuss out of the fact that this character is explicitly canonically not blonde. Has this director "lost all integrity"?

yeah what makes this even funnier is that if you start reading anything about Lupita Nyong'o you quickly realize she's a better class of human being than basically you and me and everyone we know combined. this is just some dumb guy trying to piss into a hurricane

Secret Police. Undesirables.
Here's what ICE is up to in Northeast Minneapolis today. Absolutely heartbreaking.

It is a little after 11 a.m. on Sunday in Minnesota.

Have you taken any meds you need?

Have you had something to eat? (Are you getting ready to eat again?)

Are you drinking enough water?

Do the things you've gotta do to take care of you.

We take care of each other. ❤️

Also: FUCK ICE.

This is Liam Ramos. Liam is five years old. Liam was walking home from preschool with his father when they were detained by ICE. ICE then tried to use Liam as bait to get other grownups to come outside. Liam is now at a detention facility in Texas. I guess Liam is "The worst of the worst."
