The difference between Italians paying some serbs to commit murderous terror is not all that that significant from a MAGA governor from South Dakota sending terror squads to torture and rape immigrants in LA so they can make epic tiktoks for neonazi podcasters to fawn over and demand more of

It's me again, just putting it out there that I am going to need space in 2026 for at least 5 events that can hold at least 100 people. Looking for accessible and also CHEAP spaces in NYC. None of the convenings will be charging people to participate. Thank you.

people mistake this for being a doomer, when it's really just "bad shit is going to happen. knowing that, what do you do when it does?" very pragmatic. but some people can only function with total and complete born yesterday faith, because even a little negativity/doubt would shatter them.

I liked Department of Truth 32 and 0, and am understanding Tynion incorporating into the story the fed takeover by outspoken fascists, but realized as I was organizing comics that I can't find my issue no. 30 (i have the first several TPBs, then 24-29, 31-32, 0)...

Think about how no one under 30 knows what pensions are, it's a totally alien concept. The GOP goal is to make all government services as alien and unfamiliar.
Imagine in a decade, trying to explain to a 20 year old what social security, libraries, grad school, the EPA, OSHA, mass vaccination, ADA,

So now can we be done having parasocial relationships with politicians?
They are tools. They should be backed at the ballot box when necessary and criticized liberally in public. But not a single one of them needs uncritical public support and not a single one of them is above reproach.

mamdani is going to impose mississippi masala law. everyone will have to watch his mother's movies and realize how much we've undervalued her at the expense of white female filmmakers who fit more easily into our understanding of "feminist cinema" or whatever.
Mamdani is going to impose Santana law. Everyone will have to duet with Rob Thomas.
Mamdani is going to impose Shania Law. It won't impress you much.

Senators on the brink of retirement who lived full, wealthy lives and never feared the loss of their own healthcare voting for their constituents to die from their inability to afford the same is treasonous

It is so funny to say a film festival is happening in Philadelphia when it is 40 minute drive or 2 hour SEPTA ride outside of Philadelphia.

Tough. Off the top of my head I’m leaning either Parallax View or People’s Joker. Parallax View is such a fun, angry movie about political violence under capitalism and the opaque agenda elites might have. Coverups happen from laziness, while we’re left in the dark about motives for assassination.
What is the best movie not from this year that you’ve seen this year? Bonus points if you say why
