I really like movies. They're literally my favorite thing in the world. Hoping to make my own some day soon!

What’s interesting about South Park vs Republicans right now is how scorched earth they’re going with their jokes where it’s impossible for someone like JD to just lean into and go: “I’m in on the joke you guys.” They made a joke about you guys sex trafficking Dora. They clearly hate you

Hot take: Dems doing it is good because it’s the only way gerrymandering will get banned on a national level. It’s only allowed because Republicans know Dems are too chicken shit to fight back. As soon as you show you’re willing to play dirty too, you force them to take it off the table

i think even if republicans in texas fail to gerrymander away those democratic house seats, illinois and california should still try to gerrymander away republican seats

No joke, if you told a founding father in 1778 that you believed America should be a “catholic autocracy” they would literally have kicked you out of the Pennsylvania State house and hung on the streets of Philadelphia for everyone to see

You're a dummy because your understanding of geopolitics is based on listening to two dumb comedians talk about it on a podcast. Unlike me, a smartie, who understands geopolitics because I played a video game where 6 different guys are named Snake

At least one terminally online zoomer is going to light themselves on fire in front of the Academy Museum because the Lava Chicken song from Minecraft wasn’t nominated for best song at the Oscar’s

RFK Jr blames diet, lifestyle & vaccines for chronic illness. Dr Oz says it’s a “patriotic duty” to lead a healthy life & be fit enough to serve in the military. Neither of them are pushing for Universal Healthcare, basic income, an end to food deserts & inequality, clean water etc. It’s eugenics

Not to let DNC off the hook for how they handle the 2024 election, but instead of writing the 500th article about: “why the dems lost the working class” we should start looking into how republicans gaslit so many people into thinking Trump 2.0 was a good idea

Baier: If you look at our new Fox News poll at 100 days job approval compared to other presidents, there you see the president at 44% and you see his first term at 45% at this mark the 100 day mark

Like, it’s alarming how people within a short period of time of Trump’s second term are going: “oh right, I remember, I fucking hate this guy.” Republicans have one of the successful propaganda machines at their disposal and I have no idea how begin fighting that

JD at his core is a slime politician in the pocket of big tech. Peter Thiel groomed JD to be the future president and institute his techno fascist vision and they’ll both say or do anything to go up the latter. First it was being anti-Trump republican and he just full on drinking the Trump kool-aid

Remember when every pandering liberal book columnist praised him up and down as some sort of prophet of centrist moderation after "Hillbilly Elegy"? That he would make a kinder, gentler GOP? This is why we don't let that sort of thing slide.

JD doesn’t believe in anything. He said Trump was Hitler and appeared as “reasonable Republican” to win a senate race and then said lied about Haitian immigrants 2 years later to win a presidential race. His own book/origin is a lie. He grew up middle class living off his grandparents did pensions.

Wild that Conservatives declared victory on the culture which last for like 4 months and then Trump pushed the “make economy bad” button and now centrist are going: “actually, I think I miss woke.”

Had a very nice dinner with Gus Fring who was very charming and not fake. I know he’s been accused of running a drug empire and murdering children, but that’s not the real him and not that man I met last night. I’ll continue to be critical of his child murder, but it was nice to find common ground

if we want to rebuild american institutions and earn back the world’s trust after this we cannot settle for half-measures. lots of people need to go prison. lots more need to be permanently stripped of wealth and power.

According to the White House, once again the president is proving the best golfer in a closed tournament at his own club: “The President won his second round matchup of the Senior Club Championship today in Jupiter, FL, and advances to the Championship Round tomorrow.”

US Conservatives want it both ways. They believe in a fuck you got mine mentally where your only focus in life should be your own bottom line and fuck everyone else, but they also believe you should have an undying loyalty to a vague national identity and it’s why they never stay in charge for long

Losing money is saving your country now, folks

I think the past few days have confirmed for me that too many libs threw in the towel way too early and just accepted defeat cause of the “cultural shift.” Republicans have been in power for less than 3 months and already you can feel things shifting back to left. Now’s the time to stand your ground

Video game chuds voted for Trump cause of culture war bs due to a bunch of YouTubers telling them to be mad about the Horizon Zero Dawn girl not being hot enough to jerk off to and now video games are 80 dollars cause of Trump tariffs. Has any other group ever played themselves more than this?

“DOGE staffer Big Balls was apart cyber crime gang EGodly which hacke-“ You jolt awake in Atlanta, Georgia. It’s November 15th 1864. You are general William Sherman and you have changed your mind. The future cannot come to past. The slavers cannot be allowed to rejoin the union. The South must burn

it really pisses me off that the guy running the country fashions himself a super genius and fails to even understand his own favorite movie on every level it is just so embarrassing to be governed by this guy

Severance is great cause I haven’t watched it, but it seems impossible spoil cause I have no idea what a guy dancing to a marching band has to do with anything, but I guess it’s important. I’ll find out when I watch it
