I feel as though not enough is being made of a president who wants to send troops into a state because he saw old clips of something on TV, thought it was happening IRL, and then said he was confused about it.

my favorite robert redford story is that mike nichols considered him for dustin hoffman's part in THE GRADUATE. during their conversation nichols asked redford something like, "have you ever struck out with a girl?" and redford's response was basically, "i don't understand the question"

Love this breaking of the fourth wall in Charlie Russell’s affectionate and moving portrait of neurosurgeon Henry Marsh. Noticed Geoffrey Smith was the first person thanked, no doubt for the copious use of archive from his masterful film about Marsh, The English Surgeon

Republicans could’ve spent this year trying to tackle any number of problems facing Americans. Instead, they’ve spent the past five months crafting a giant tax break for rich people that also leaves working families worse off. That’s backwards.

Everything that’s happened over the past six months has been a response to an imaginary crisis. There is no immigrant invasion. No trade crisis. No scientific or governance crisis. Just people completely high off their own supply trying to fundamentally reorder society. None of this had to happen.
