Abortion restrictions have NEVER been about the life of the unborn. They’ve ALWAYS been about controlling the lives of women.

So many brilliant artists are never noticed in the U.S.

VIVIAN MAIER was a Nanny for 40yrs who unbeknownst to anyone spent her free time taking over 150,000 photos of whatever interested her. 2yrs before she died her photos were found in a lock up she’d failed to keep up payments on and her decades of incredible work suddenly exploded upon the world.

The saturation of sports betting not just in ads between innings, but *during* the actual #MLB #Playoffs broadcasts is really turning me the F off. Sports Betting & Polymarket/Kalshi crap need Tobacco-level advertising regulations.

Benjamin Netanyahu is a war criminal and his government has committed genocide in Gaza. The United States should stop all military assistance to Israel. Saying this is not antisemitic. (I’m Jewish, by the way.)

Abolish ICE!

WATCH: A group of ICE goons beat a man they were detaining after they'd already wrestled him to the floor in Naples, Florida on Wednesday night. Bystanders began to yell that they were filing when the ICE goons punched the man repeatedly.

One of the greatest things ever aired on #snl. It was shown ONCE and was forever cut from reruns. Perhaps it touched a nerve with the media elites.

This aired just the once in 1998 on the live SNL show for which McKay wrote it. It was effectively banned as it never aired again. I wonder why. MEDIA-OPOLY
