Trump and his greedhead cronies may get a big surprise in spite of their efforts to rig the 2026 election. They could find themselves swamped by a blue wave. Americans are wising up to the fact that Trump is turning the American dream into a nightmare.
Were you to ask Leavitt etc, they would identify themselves as patriots whose beliefs rest on the country’s foundation. But with their talk of demons and evil, they are framing reality in a way that would justify Donald Trump’s campaign for fascist power. adamkinzinger.substack.com/p/tragedy-br...
What we need to do is have a ban like the 80s but pass laws to limit the guns production before it takes place so we don't end up with more weapons in the population. Pass red flag laws, anti 3d printing and bump stock laws.
The fully automatic guns banned in the 80s, still made for cops and the military, have never been used in a mass shooting because the atf monitors their sales etc. The 'ban' in the 90s however on semi autos, saw many more guns bought up and it lasted only 10 years.
Usually when there is a 'ban' there is a surge in gun manufacturing and sales before it goes in effect. A 'ban' always leads to more of those guns in American households. Then those weapons can sell for 6 figures, though monitored by the atf.
The left thinks a gun ban will remove guns from the population. The right thinks a ban will have people take your guns. This never has happened. Certain guns get banned from being produced for the public. The atf monitors the ones in the public. They still remain there.
As long as guns are easily available to crazy people, mass killings directed at so-called soft targets will continue. This is a fact. Countries where it's more difficult for crazy people to obtain guns have less shootings. This is also a fact. Do with these facts as you will.
They're openly calling to lock up every trans person by force. We need every ally to speak out forcefully against this because trans folks cannot do this on our own.
I think what a lot of people don't get when the male loneliness epidemic gets brought up is that most these troubled young men are quite young. It's not about trying to get them girls. It's about trying to steer them away from the manoverse and incel sites that are toxic and lead to tragedies.
I hate having anxiety. It's going to take a lot to get my first YouTube video out there, especially since I don't like attention, talking about myself or being seen. Thankfully, I don't have to worry about that too much. I just have to compete with thousands of creators on popular topics lol
Adam Kinzinger is the only person I've seen that can talk about male loneliness and not make it about women, sex and dating. Loneliness isn't about not getting laid. It also has nothing to do with women's success. That's what the assholes online make it about. What he talks about can help all of us.
The is a crisis among young men. We would be wise to pay attention. My latest adamkinzinger.substack.com/p/young-men-...
He doesn't say anything in there about women owing men a relationship. He also doesn't blame women for what's going on. He mentions things that can benefit everyone and even women are lonely. It's about friends, family, community too. People are disconnected.
Since there's not going to be a gun ban ever, and the Democrats dropped the issue a few years ago and we know the other side won't do anything on guns, we need to do more for mental health in this country. That discussion always gets shut down by gun control talk. One ain't happening. Time to shift.
Republicans have time to pettily paint over a memorial for people killed in a mass shooting because they can’t hate gay people enough, but they can’t be bothered to stop school shootings because they don’t love children enough. www.msnbc.com/opinion/msnb...
Putting the military on the street will lower crime. It does in North Korea, did in Nazi Germany, and in the book 1984. The question isn’t will it lower crime. The question is do we want to be a nation governed like this. Until 6 minutes ago the GOP believed in LOCAL control.
Only in old movies could a white guy become a mystical yogi with super powers and get sent to battle a Hungarian supervillain who kidnapped his bother-in-law who just happened to invent a death ray.
This has the be fixed. It’s a violation of the second amendment Donald Trump Can Seize Your State’s National Guard - Here’s Why It Matters youtu.be/AHNPxMSj6qA
Lol I did take a pic but can't dm it with bluesky so I'll have to show it off the next time we all hang.
Old movies could go from adorable to tragic to some of the most brutal shit in just an hour. And if Peter Lorre is a good guy never ever cross him. Holy shit can he go from sweet to soulless savage and orchestrate the most horrific revenge.
The second amendment guarantees the right to a militia to guard against federal tyranny. But if a president can use that force against its own state, against the wishes of that state, then it is no militia at all and a clear violation of the second amendment.
The one time I get the perfect squiggly mustard line on my hotdog like in the photos is by complete accident while rushing and not seeing what I did lol
The top searches for it have been about whether the dog survives so I agree, people will hate it if the dog gets hurt.
The upcoming Horror movie Good Boy, from the pov of a pet dog, has been changed from a limited release to a wide release. This is because its trailer has garnered an enormous amount of interest in the film.
If it's the arm you where your watch on keep that in mind with their placement. You might not want one covered. You hooligan.
I miss when in movies the only operation that could save someone was a brain transplant. Usually though it was a bad brain that made one go on a revenge killing spree. Be careful where you get new body parts from in old movies.
Start wearing brown shirts that match your coffee.
The real meaning of 'hangover.' The lowest form of accommodation in Victorian England was a place where you could, for the price of a penny, dangle on a rope overnight

It's interesting that the numbers of trans men, trans women and non-binary are kinda close. If you combined trans men and women it would outnumber non-binary but non-binary is either a mix of male and female to varying degrees or lack of the two. www.nbcnews.com/news/amp/rcn...
The National Guard are meant to be deployed to respond to real emergencies like natural disasters and public health crises. Advancing President Trump's political agenda is not one of those emergencies — and the former vice chief of the National Guard Bureau agrees.
Preach your Ossoff, Senator!
BREAKING: We're filing a petition for the immediate release of Mario Guevara, a journalist who is being detained by ICE because of his reporting on law enforcement activity. The First Amendment is clear: Journalists cannot be detained for doing their jobs.
I’m going to make this a video at some point but I’m saying this here and being done because it’s honestly just angering and scaring and frustrating me.
Guillermo del Toro on Frankenstein: “I want real sets. I don’t want digital. I don’t want AI. I don’t want simulation. I want old‑fashioned craftsmanship. I want people painting, building, hammering, plastering.” In select theaters on 10/17/25, followed by its global debut on Netflix on 11/7/25.
People who have only seen, like, two pre-1915 movies trying to 'splain to me that BIRTH OF A NATION "invented the grammar of film"
No matter what, we will always raise our voices to protect our rights.
The endless uncritical stanning of Gavin Newsome and calling anyone who critiques him as a problem is such a damn microcosm of my problems with institutional politics.
No, I wish leftists would act like leftists and not cheer on men like Gavin Newsome who is only there to entrench establishment institutional power & spend that energy on building coalitions, unions and collective structures of support. You know - things that leftist politics are generally about.
Forcing lawmakers you disagree with to comply with 24/7 police surveillance is a gross civil liberties violation. President Trump and his allies in Texas will stop at nothing to silence voters of color, including targeting the elected officials who represent them.
In the face of the Trump administration's escalating anti-immigrant agenda, state officials owe us transparency about their collaboration with immigration enforcement. @aclunv.bsky.social is demanding answers.
🐕
Gavin Newsome is just the South Park of politics - something that’s mildly entertaining so Dems throw away all of their values they pretended to have because it gets a good dunk on the guy they hate.
I miss when a movie was actually controversial. Not like now when the biggest controversy is diverse casting or something out of line with PC bullshit. Both the Left and the Right have politicized entertainment to be very boring. Thankfully Horror films seem to mostly be immune to this.
💀
More people outside the elite were starting to read and it was the Gothic works they sought out. These were a couple decades before Frankenstein. Frankenstein is probably the first Modern idea of Horror and Sci-Fi, written several decades before the Horror, Mystery and Sci-Fi boom of the late 1800s
A guy named Horace Walpole wrote the first Gothic novel, The Castle of Otranto, pretending he found this old manuscript so it was praised at first. Once people found out he wrote it they called it trash. Women started writing their own Gothic novels, and some men, and it became a craze in literature
What many don't know about fiction as a whole is that during the Age of Reason and Elightenment, nothing was allowed that contained fantasy, supernatural and other non scientific elements. Imagination itself was nearly killed off until the Gothic novels hit the scene, mainly written by women...
I'm going to start my YouTube channel for horror movies, some horror TV and related topics hopefully soon. I know some videos may not get monetized because of what I'll have to discuss but that's okay cause there's so much to talk about.
I've watched a few great Horror Movies that made up for how bad Nosferatu was. Heretic, Longlegs, Opus all have older actors playing interesting villains. Hugh Grant was the scariest, Nicolas Cage the most insane and John Malcovich the smartest of the bunch.
I can understand that. It's usually always a surprise. Most trained psychiatrists have to be tricked by them before realizing what they are. There's a special test used in prison to verify it. It's not easily identified, usually not until they crash and get caught. I'm sorry that happened.
People who are psychopathic will appear normal, charismatic, friendly and even have families. Some are serial killers, serial rapists, domestic abusers and some just kill one day out of the blue. Others are just corrupt politicians, CEOs etc and aren't even violent. They can even fool psychiatrists.
People believing that only understand power as through supporting the most powerful figure in electoral politics frustrate me. I’m not against voting - but that’s theliteral least you can do. Your power comes from organizing and building coalitions-not for electoral politics but for your community.
Reminder: gerrymandering maps to protect democracy is like privatizing Medicaid to advance single-payer healthcare—it goes in the wrong direction. The answer is for the Democratic Party to use its money, membership, and political network to organize strikes and boycotts. Organize the people MORE.
Here's a version that was archived. archive.org/details/60-m...
Eventually, these unidentified masked thugs will try to do this to someone armed and it'll be a full on shoot out. There's a reason law enforcement are supposed to wear badges and identify themselves. People don't know if it's some gang pretending to be cops and will try to defend themselves.
Seems like the new MAGA brain implant chip is to say the whole red carpet soldiers in their knees thing is because it was a military base. This is completely false. It’s a choice. Also Zelensky will be landing at Andrews. A military base. Let’s see if they do this for him.
I just read "Feast upon a satchel of Richards" as an alternative euphemism for "Eat a bag of dicks" and honestly? 10/10, great alternative phrase. Wow.
“We don’t think you fight fire with fire best; we think you fight fire with water best.” - Fred Hampton
WEAPONS: Confidently told, and very scary. I loved it.
The Governors of states need to call up their National Guard troops before Trump does. Once Trump does they'll become federal troops and shouldn't be helping with law enforcement.
Ask your therapist if perpetual victimhood is right for you!
Not only did federal goons show up to try and intimidate our governor, they did so on hallowed ground. Gov. Newsom was speaking at the Democracy Center at the Japanese American National Museum, which I helped found so we do not repeat the horrors and injustices of the past. Shameful.
What I really worry about is that the deportations will be to occupied Ukraine so the Russians can get them.
The New Orleans City Council is considering expanding police use of real-time facial recognition cameras, which would make it easier for ICE to go after immigrants, activists, and more. City Council members must block this proposal and protect our constitutional right to privacy.
But do you ever have to eat cereal with a fork?
Deploying troops, tanks, and federal police officers into our neighborhoods isn't about safety. It's about sowing fear and chaos — but we won't be intimidated.
Her laying there as her home burns, mostly shadowed at first is by no means sexualized. Her getting up with torn clothes, not that bikini, and you don't really see any nudity but maybe for a couple seconds, not a focused shot, is not sexualized. And by 80s standards? Are you kidding?
I don't know about that version of the comics but the 1985 did not sexualize that. They didn't even really show it. Are you saying the comic was sexualized because she was drawn as attractive? Most comic characters, male and female are.
Her revenge wasn't all about rape. Her family was murdered. And there's not that many actions movies that utilize that. More so horror films as it's a subgenre but they have important things to say also. My issue was when she said it sexualized her. That's where I take issue.
My issue is more with the director's statement about that particular story. How it was worded. A lot of comics did get retconned in the 2010s. A lot of Marvel uses those newer stories for their movies. I get that. I've just seen a lot of 'sanitized' iterations lately, of many adaptations.

I seriously wasn't sure if I'd like Sinners and thought that I'd enjoy Nosferatu. Sinners is one of the best movies out and Nosferatu was a badly written, over the top shit fest that ruined the classic of all classics.
It got out that citizens didn't want to change how districts are redrawn in California before Newsom decided to leave it to the voters. A lot of big talk for nothing. Can we have a state that can actually manage to gerrymander for the Dems step up? If not shut up about you hacks.
California is not one of the most un-Trump states, it's very red like New York. If that was the case then the topic of gerrymandering in those places wouldn't need to come up. He knows that. That's why rather than just do it, he's tossing it to voters to take the blame when it fails.
Republican Congressman Thomas Massie: “Why is Trump sending troops to DC to fight crime during the recess? All the criminals went home to their districts.”
Do you not have the balls to just call me retarded? You gotta use some childish way to say retard when that's what you meant? Just call me a fucking retard if that's what you want to say and stop coming at this like a pussy.
As more and more people are arrested by the feds in DC on BS charges for interfering with federal goons, I think it's going to be important to run a public campaign calling for mass jury nullification, both in grand juries and petty juries. Make it impossible for them to bring charges or convict.
Then he needs to do that without holding a special election. If it fails it will be on him and not thrown onto the voters.
What's a way to look tough and try to score possible 2028 bid points. Challenge a state that is going to gerrymander by saying you will when you know your own state will most likely vote no, then release an overkill map and leave it up to the voters so it's on them if it fails. Newsom is a shitheel.
Millions of people will die because of cutting international aid and this is what these bastards are doing instead.
I take serious issue with the new Red Sonja movie. This is a character who is a rape survivor but the director said gang rape sexualizes her. Wtf? So they removed that and kept the skimpy outfit that later artists used to sexualize her with. She wasn't wearing that originally or in the 80s movie.
If you really want to fight fire with fire you need states other than California, New York and Illinois to do that. Two are mainly republican aside the big cities and Illinois already gerrymandered as much as they could for dems when they fucked over Adam Kinzinger who's been taking on Trump longer.
Christian Right is neither.
There would be an immediate cease fire if Russia immediately ceases firing.
A pattern to prove anything they are pushing would have to be that these athletes continously win in their own field of sports and never lose to women. That is not the case. They even have darts and pool listed in that article, and volleyball, things men and women play together often.
You can’t assert the former without the latter also being true.
🎯
Can a state that actually has a chance at getting more dem districts actually throw their hat in the ring for the gerrymandering wars? California was never serious, New York also has a lot of Republican voters and Illinois already gerrymandered itself as blue as it can be.
I don't know why Newsom wants to hold a vote on his gerrymandering threat. Maybe it's because it's gotten out most the people there don't want it and this was all for show. Also, doesn't he know most his state is Red? He should know a vote may not work.

On this date in 1975, "The Rocky Horror Picture Show" was released in the UK and in the United States on 26 September at the UA Westwood in Los Angeles, California. It has never been pulled by 20th Century Fox from its original 1975 release, and it continues to play in cinemas.
The problem with the new Nosferatu is that Robert Eggers made it.
