Trans rights is a winning platform. Pro immigration is a winning platform. Taxing the rich is a winning platform. Affordable housing is a winning platform. Free childcare is a winning platform. Hating Andrew Cuomo is a winning platform. SOCIALISM IS A WINNING PLATFORM

The Louvre has been robbed the same week the new pope has talked about shutting down Opus Dei. Have the police interviewed Dan Brown yet? 🤔

Ditto.
One of my least rational beliefs is that if you pull off a heist without hurting anyone or getting caught within a day, that's your stuff fair and square.

Here. It’s pretty much the easiest way to defend immigration.
A man on the streets of the UK is asked about the “problem of immigration” and dismantles talking points with ease.

This is great, because it shows that a right wing gobshite who rants on about how bad a thing is actually knows *nothing* about that thing, just wants that thing to be how he thinks it *should* be. Which is basically the American government now.

"Which side was the killer on?"

The side of killing. Now ask which "side" wants everyone in America to have easy access to guns.

As long as we’re on the subject of Netflix and movies (however reluctantly!) I recommend this piece by @tavlin.bsku.social about why so many Netflix movies suck: www.nplusonemag.com/issue-49/ess...

Powerful, lovely 🧵
Okay, there’s something I need to do every August 24th.
I need to tell you to not give up on your mental health, yourself, this world, or hope.
My brother Rick should be turning 63 today but he died at age 44 due to depression and other mental health problems. He shouldn’t have.

What movie has had the most impact on your actual literal life? Not necessarily your favorite, but the one that’s most influenced or shaped something in your trajectory?

Wrote a terrifyingly vulnerable thing about terminal illness and loss - an extremely rare foray, for me, into something which has no mention of movies. Hope someone somewhere likes it or relates to it, I guess.

Incredibly evocative work by Samuel van Hoogstraten, born on this day in 1627. A kind of domestic still life. Nothing & everything.

In the winter of 1988, on a break from shooting DEAD POETS SOCIETY, seven of the young actors from the film traveled into New York City, 5 of them auditioning for the same role in the Jack Lemmon film DAD. The other two brought a video camera. I live for this stuff.
