It is impossible for me to describe just how much I loathe Merrick Garland for not prosecuting Trump and all these people long before this day.

...The fines for facilitating this life-destroying fraud are far less than the expected revenue from helping to destroy its users' lives: https://t.co/WQNYVZ47pE 3/

Meta projected 10% of its 2024 revenue would come from ads for scams and banned goods, and it internally estimates that its platforms show users 15 billion scam ads a day, company documents show.

A blockbuster Reuters report by Jeff Horwitz analyzes leaked internal documents that reveal that: 10% of Meta's gross revenue comes from ads for fraudulent goods and scams, and; the company knows it, and; they decided not to do anything about it, because... 1/

Republicans understood there is no opposition party, just a grifting machine that exploits and then betrays its own voters over and over again
Republicans had predicted that Democrats would cave on the government shutdown as soon as the election was over because they were only keeping the standoff going to motivate their base.

One more thing: for everyone wondering why Americans don’t just rise up and whatnot, it’s not just police that keep people from doing it, it is also Democrats who have conditioned the American psyche that things can only get worse, not better. Today is an example of that.

A Democratic cave now after Tuesday’s clean sweep is about the dumbest thing I can imagine.

this is a terrible sanitization. in the novel, as the creature became less egalitarian as he educated himself. he wanted a female companion so he can CONTROL her. gdt couldnt bring himself to make the creature anything but simple and sympathetic.
i actually find it interesting that in the book and most adaptations that have been done the creature specifically asks for a bride/a female companion. but in gdt’s adaptation he doesn’t, he just wants a companion. victor is the one to bring up a bride. i really like this choice

@JoshKraushaar In 2023, The Guardian reported on related events between the allies of Victor Orban & MAGA members of Congress to end funding for Ukraine. Heritage was involved. The closed door meetings were apparently ignored by American media. https://t.co/vWGyilsTfO

I try not to talk shit about other people's taste in movies, but saying Romulus is better than Alien is like saying a Jeff Koons balloon dog is better than Guernica

This positioning is so bizarre. “Limp past $200 million?” A brilliant, ballsy PTA movie has made more than a prepackaged Disney event film like “Tron: Ares.” This should be celebrated and not sniffed at.
One Battle After Another is going to limp past $200 million in the next week. Box office isn't the only metric to measure a movie. For an artist, it's not the most important metric. But the folks who thought it would become a cultural sensation a la Sinners were wrong.
