Quote on my mind:

"And now that you don't have to be perfect, you can be good." — John Steinbeck, "East of Eden," 1952.
This twat is saying there’s no sanctuary, safety, or peace for anyone who defies the Trump Regime. To question, to object, is to die. Oh, and enjoy our arts and entertainment, but tickets now!
The director of the Kennedy Center. I can’t imagine why nobody wants to perform there.

Dude, don’t go spreading lies. You’re doing no one favors except Trump’s base. Let’s stick w/ facts. Yet another way we can differentiate ourselves from the Trump/Heritage crowd.

It should be bigger news that masked agents were filmed hours ago removing potentially inculpatory evidence from the ICE shooter's house, clearly lacking evidence tags or chain of custody stickers.

Before we have word on whether he underwent a toxicology screen at the hospital following the killing

Trump Math: The act of desperately escaping life under a corrupt, authoritarian gov't is illegal; shooting a mother of three in the face is … well, why was she even out of the kitchen, huh??

My nerdy brain went to "Pan's Labyrinth," too. Imagine rooting for the colonel who (spoiler!) shoots a child point blank in the chest and walks off. But, all these vile men (and women) root for ICE thugs who shoot mothers point blank in the face and walk off. Sickening to my core.

I’m on that list. My career has been comms/media relations about university research. There are hundreds just like me. Our President is at war with education. A statement that I would have thought impossible to write in 2015. Now, it’s just Friday.

The 'get their vehicle out of the snow' is such a blatant lie- I can't even. Just look at the videos. We midwesterners know there's barely any snow at all & the streets are plowed! Then look at the giant DHS SUVs. Yeah, sure one of those 4-wheel drive monsters was stuck in the snow. Good grief.

It should be mandatory to drop, toss, catapult, FedEx, and/or pigeon delivery F bombs at ICE and their Orange God.

Superman: “Jesus Fitzgerald Christ! How can I live on this photographer’s for-shit salary!?!?”

Spider-Man: “Jesus Fitzgerald Christ! How can I live on this reporter’s for-shit salary!”

Both: “Shit! I’ve been laid off!!!” 😆

*I'm almost 52 and even on a 25th watch, Bytes (Freddie Jones) terrifies the shit out of me. Especially the scene where Bytes demands Merrick "back" as he shakes from DTs from lack of alcohol. Just. Terrifying.

Day 9. Circus in a movie. We lost David Lynch last year, so he's been on my mind. In 1981, my parents took 7yo me to see "The Elephant Man," a masterpiece that terrified me. Now, I love it. #FilmSky #MovieSky #Films #Movies #Cinema @davidlynchsworlds.bsky.social

As I said elsewhere, if the 16th Street Baptist Church bombing happened today, Dokoupil and Weiss would ask, “Won’t something think of the Klan member’s children? They suffer too!” (I've visited the church and the Civil Rights Museum across the street. A life-altering, humbling experience.)

It's turns out Andy was in Green Bay, talking to inebriated sports fans.

To tweak a line from Sam Raimi's terrific "A Simple Plan" (1998), "It's American Dream in a goddamn colostomy bag!"
There honestly cannot be a satire cutting enough to make fun of Americans. What the fuck do you mean the highest colonial ideal you could imagine was a parking lot with McDonald's on both sides
January 9, 2026 at 1:43 PM
Who needs majestic, snow-covered mountains and the awe-inspiring aurora borealis when you can have a Target between two McDonald's? The American Dream in a colostomy bag!

*Hat tip to Sam Raimi's "A Simple Plan" and the line, "It's the American Dream in a goddamn gym bag" for the inspiration.

If the Birmingham 16th Street Baptist Church bombing happened today, Dokoupil and Weiss would ask on air, “Won’t something think of the Klan member’s children? They suffer too!”

Maybe they’d read emails of bigots yelling, “Keep America white!,” because both sidesing is so goddamn important.

Kyiv is currently entirely without power and heating after today’s attack. Authorities urged people to leave the city if they can. This is a humanitarian disaster, in case anyone didn’t know

Just here to repost the work of artists. The human kind. But I once did a lot of art. Here is quick self-portrait I did as part of therapy when distraught. (Mostly, I do photography now.) #art

Hours after his SS thugs murder a woman in Minnesota. He is the Great Embarrassment of the World. Maybe Norway can give an inaugural prize for that to Trump. He'll likely accept it.
