the mummy understands that we want looney tunes action sequences, smoking hot bisexual eye candy and scary ass monsters and delivers
thinking again about the greatest scene in cinema history
I think the unspoken part here is that Mandelson had very clearly been at the heart of all kinds of things, for many years, and that at best nobody seems to have showed even the slightest curiosity about what his actual role was and why the fucker was everywhere with his fingers in multiple pies.
So the shoegate I understand it is this:
1. Trump equals shoe size to dick size
2. Trump asks Rubio, Hegseth and the rest of the ilk about their shoe size.
3. They all yell, like 10, 11, big, huge.
4. Trump buys those for them, and they shamble around in shoes twice their size.
Oh my godddddd
A sloppelganger of bell hooks?
However much I cursed Grammarly before, consider it quadrupled
My little mutual aid team has fundraised over $250,000 in rent support over the last 3 months JUST for families at our neighborhood school.
$1 million for the whole city does NOT come close to meeting the scale and depth of need in our city.
Fuck Frey. This is unacceptable & will cause harm.
I’ve been getting a lot of questions about what it was like viewing the unredacted Epstein Files. This was my experience:
Jim Cramer suggests on CNBC that Trump could “bomb Tehran into the Stone Age” until Iran reopens the strait, citing U.S. bombings of North Vietnam in the 1970s. Carl Quintanilla points out to him that Hanoi won that war.
It’s about as outre as fuzzy handcuffs.
And now they’re Epsteining.
Like, there’s plenty of actual investigative work to be done on the files but people seem to prefer confabulating Satanic cults from scattered random “clues.”
I gotta say, I am really starting to feel like every one of us who has ever done an ARG failed humanity by not making a big-ass ARG during COVID, like giving people an array of actual, satisfying, fictional puzzle-narratives to obsess over during lockdown.
BC there wasn’t one and people Qanon-ed.
Which is to say, Eyes Wide Shit was ABSOLUTELY Kubrick being like “you wouldn’t believe the weird sex shit rich people do, and they’ll go to extreme lengths to protect themselves.”
It was not a detailed coded map of Epstein-land.
The secret society orgy in EWS is probably inspired by stuff that rich people Kubrick knew were doing, and probably also partly made to fit Kubrick’s particular aesthetic and needs for the movie.
I guarantee you there are powerful people who never really connected with Epstein who are doing Weird Sex Things In Groups.
Some of those things are probably horrific, and some are probably just weird.
Like here’s the thing, I think the truth about Eyes Wide Shut is simpler and less satisfying than conspiracy theorists want it to be.
Which is that I think Kubrick, like many people in the movie industry, probably knew about all KINDS of weird sex shit people in power were doing.
I’m listening to a podcast about the conspiracy theories about Eyes
Wide Shut + Epstein and it’s amazing to me that even when there’s a massive, salacious, ACTUAL
CONSPIRACY that is actually real beyond a shadow of a doubt, people are like nah, and make up shit instead.
Saw a van for Schindler's Elevator Company an hour ago but there was no one in the car to hear me say "Schindler's lift" and I'm still mad about it
Folks in Maine and Alaska: please call Collins and Murkowski to oppose the confirmation of Casey Means for Surgeon General. They are apparently still on the fence and MAHA is pushing them hard to vote in favor.
A cartoon by Ron Cobb (1975), showing a shadow of US B-52 bomber above cratered landscape. Two people who look like Vietnamese peasants look up; one says “they’re having problems with their economy again.”
This is from 1975.
me and the other scheming viziers are wearing shoes gifted to us by the king that are way too big. we look ridiculous. the whole court is laughing at us behind our backs. honestly this is a pretty low point for us, the scheming viziers
When Americans were asked to temporarily sacrifice going to their barbers so we could keep the morgues from overflowing, people with guns stormed the Michigan capitol.
And most so-called good men still see women’s fear and animosity, when it exists, as the issue.
I will reiterate that some women genuinely hate men for doing horrific stuff to women.
Most men hate women for existing as people with autonomous thoughts.
Like, I guarantee at most moments we are actively underestimating the degree to which they hate us.
This is just fucking appalling on every level. Like, what a violation.

This is why targeting one group always ends up hurting others. Policies aimed at women reached Jewish women. Policies aimed at "minority cultures" reached Jewish culture.
He used an OpenAI chatbot to screen thousands of NEH grants for "DEI." Any mention of gender, race, LGBTQ people or "underrepresented cultures" triggered a flag.
An Alaskan Native language preservation project? DEI. A documentary on a massacre of Black men? DEI. Jewish women enslaved by Nazis? DEI.
Under oath, DOGE's Justin Fox explained why.
The film was "specifically focused on Jewish culture and amplifying the marginalized voices of the females in that culture."
He called focusing on women during the Holocaust "inherently discriminatory."
Important thread.
