Generally think it's unhelpful to share Twitter screenshots here, for all the obvious reasons, but someone passed along, and think this vital information needs to be known to all.

you know this guy is a FOR REAL photographer because he's telling the story of his brutal, unconditional arrest by federal goons and can't help but slip in a gear review
Photo by Pierre Lavie. Yes this is me. And I threw my Leica. It landed on the bass plate with hardly a scratch. Another Photographer grabbed it along with my phone and I was able to track him later. I was held face down tear gas deployed right in front of me and pepper sprayed directly into the eye.

Also, thinking you can recreate Harrison Ford in his prime is just the height of hubris. Can’t be done, might summon the mighty wrath of the gods, etc.

Listen: if we’re going to be subjected to endless retreads of nostalgic media properties, can we at least stop having the opening scene feature Digitally De-Aged Movie Star? I don’t care how good you think the technology is, it’s just distracting and weird.

1. Them dudes have CHEMISTRY with each other. Bring that back. Chemistry test these actors before you inflict them upon us.
2. On God, give unknowns a chance. Please!

I will stop talking about Heated Rivalry, but one of the reasons it has become such a big thing is this is the way Hollywood is supposed to work! Two actors working as waiters who get a shot and made the most of it and now are going to be stars! It feels like that never happens anymore.

SURE, yes, those are the correct literary antecedents.

If it doesn’t smell weird and it goes on smooth, I probably wouldn’t ever throw it away, especially if the color wasn’t readily available. But I wear lipstick, like, once a year and don’t make the best choices, so.

Endlessly amused that all I hear about 9-1-1 is the shipping drama when this is apparently what’s happening in the actual show about firefighters.

Little girl in line for Chinese food said, “Ooooh, I can TASTE the dump-a-ling!” and frankly that’s the kind of energy I want to bring to 2026.

Mom Update: She just referred to Beaver Nuggets, the famous Bucc-ee's snack food, as "Bucky's Nuts," and I snorted sparkling water out my nose. Do not recommend.

let's go Peruvian shaman prophesy part II
A group of Peruvian shamans gathered on a beach in southern Lima to perform their annual New Year ritual, delivering predictions for 2026 that included the fall of Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro and a serious illness for US President Donald Trump

the reason people sometimes act madder at democrats than republicans when republicans do impossibly evil shit is the same reason why, if you hired an exterminator to handle a roach infestation and he showed up to feed and play with them instead, your first instinct wouldn’t be to yell at the roaches

BTW, I found this out by flipping over to The Martian and starting a sentence with “I mean, Matt Damon isn’t my favorite, but—“ and receiving A Look. Backpedaling time.

Just this moment discovered that my mom has a thing for Matt Damon. She says: “I don’t know, he just seems nice. Unlike that Ben Affleck. But they’re friends, apparently.” I have heard that, Mom.

![A Canva-mocked up call script re: calling electeds Trump Administration's actions in Venezuela
YOU: Hi, my name is [NAME]. I’m calling from [ZIP CODE].
YOU: I’m calling [MOC] to demand they condemn the U.S.’s actions in Venezuela tonight.

2. Demand a legal written justification from the Administration,
3. Hold IMMEDIATE House/Senate Foreign Affairs hearings on the the decision-making, legality, and diplomatic risks of the Maduro operation,

College BFF sends me handwritten postcards all the time and they absolutely make my day.
Fun tip:
If you like your nations postal service, keep sending letters to people. There's been a reduction of letters sent over the years, so grab yourself a pack of postcards and get writing. Send your friends and family a handwritten note or letter. It'll be a lovely surprise for them.
