TWISTED BY LOVE (Tubi) At around the 29 minute mark, this contains maybe the worst movie blooper I’ve ever seen. The scene ends, the actors talk about the take, the director resets, and they do another take. It’s all left in the edit.

It was 7:15 here and my wife and I were looking for the next big city to do a live ball drop for the kids so they could go to bed. UTC-1 is wild

We were having trouble selling our house and were complaining to a coworker about the market. Coworker said his neighbor was also complaining to him about selling his house. World Series champion Greg Holland’s house on zillow was a lot nicer than mine

Me, but I’m talking about “Doug”
A quarter-century after its premiere, “The West Wing” is a vastly more cynical show than many of its admirers remember, which is why it is also a more compelling work of art than many of its skeptics assume.
‘The West Wing’ was more cynical than we remember – and better for it
The beloved show is not a paean to good government so much as it is a wrenching exploration of how politics corrupts even well-meaning people.

“Those of us on the left should be fighting to improve protections for workers of all races, and thereby for the betterment of people’s material conditions regardless of their views,” Arash Azizi argues:
