OMG. Terrorists have struck DC. In a preemptive attack, they have completely demolished the East Wing of the White House. America mourns. πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ

yeah the thing about this is that you can eat the cost when you’re running a news network as propaganda but if you try to run a major studio that explicitly takes the side of MAGA you’re just going to fail

even larry senior can’t eat those kind of losses for long

yeah the next DOJ should be ready to go to war here, it's not like avoiding a fight will make them LESS hostile

expecting a pretty big talent drain from WB/HBO, too, once they start pushing propaganda as hard as I expect they will

Unlimited espresso drinks at the office is dangerous.

On the other hand, making the geriatric Dem caucus take off their shoes on their weekly trips home might be enough to get them to cave.

My kids are going to hate me when they get older. I just told my 8 y/o that β€œthe first rule of art supplies is put them away when you’re done.”

Had the same thought. But they’ll get away with a slap on the wrist again.

1. I think most liberals are probably familiar with one part of what has become known as Wilhoit’s Law – that the true goals of the right are inequality, injustice, repression and control. This is how composer Frank Wilhoit put it in 2018:

He is at this time transporting large Armies of foreign Mercenaries to compleat the works of death, desolation and tyranny, already begun with circumstances of Cruelty & perfidy scarcely paralleled in the most barbarous ages, and totally unworthy the Head of a civilized nation.

We need prosecutions for political murders β€” that’s ultimately what these are β€” and truth and reconciliation commissions.

This is a fascist terror campaign against the people of Minnesota. As with J6, no one involved should be allowed near a badge or a political office ever again.

He’s struggling to stand back up after being pistol-whipped while on the ground.

At my first show of the year…Sick Move, American Television, Luxury Teeth, and Celebration Summer at Metro Gallery in Baltimore. The new job is likely going to mean fewer shows, so I’m making this one count.
