It's so funny that Jones didn't have the decency to behave like a normal, professional person, but he could sure act like it when no one even asked him to.
NOT a real doctor, it's a joke. Movies in particular, pop culture in general, politics, random thoughts.

It's too hard to locate the exact moment so you'll have to trust that this exists, but Joel Schumacher is on the set of Batman Forever for an interview when Tommy Lee Jones walks up and pats him on the shoulder as if they're cool and makes a joke. Schumacher has the biggest FUCK YOU on his face.
This should be the lead story in all major national news outlets. Public health people prefer to stay out of the limelight unless there is no other choice. I can’t overstate how bad things have to be for 9 former CDC directors to band together and pen an op-ed in the NYT warning the entire country.
Pritzker on Trump sending troops into cities: "He has other aims other than fighting crime... he would like to stop the elections in 2026 or frankly take control of those elections. He'll just claim there's some problem with an election and then he's got troops on the ground that can take control."
In a new #ScienceReview, researchers discuss the latest understanding of secondary organic aerosol formation in urban China, providing a framework for identifying knowledge gaps and guiding future research into haze chemistry and pollution control strategies. https://scim.ag/3HCgNrX
We’re only a few years removed from creatjng a vaccine to protect against a deadly airborne virus in a matter of months. Now, we have a scion fail son running the CDC into the ground not because it failed, but because its success conflicts with RFK Jr’s eugenicist ideology.
id build the sickest paintball park the world has ever seen and its crazy to me that none of our mega rich have done this yet
9. DeSantis this weekend attempted to deflect responsibility, blaming the legislature: “There’s laws that are on the books that I enforce that I may not fully agree with, but I took an oath to do it and so that’s the way the cookie crumbles, and so but there was a change in law."
1. On Saturday, a judge ordered Pulse pride crosswalk protester released from jail. Police arrested him after he chalked the bottom of his shoe in rainbow colors and walked across it. Sunday, police arrested 3 more under the same charges. Subscribe to support my journalism.
I would read a whole series of reports like this on each individual federal goon. They all deserve a profile.
Rudy Giuliani dying is not strategically important. I need Death to pick up their game a bit.
It is unconscionable for baby formula to be sitting at the border of Gaza as newborns & infants die of starvation. Secretary Rubio must heed our calls to pressure Israel to surge humanitarian aid including ready to feed formula to families in Gaza. Lives depend on it.
Aid flotilla with Greta Thunberg set to sail for Gaza to ‘break illegal siege’
What have I always said to POC and LGBTQ people? We're all in the same battle, our enemy is the same.
AP: “When Trump awarded a contract for $1.2 billion for 🇺🇸’s largest immigration detention complex, it handed it to Acquisition Logistics LLC, a small biz with no experience… its address a modest home in suburban Virginia.”🤔 Golden Age of Corruption. apnews.com/article/trum...

Cis men don't feel sexually threatened by them, which is why, if I am correct, violence against trans women is much much higher.
I'm suspicious because I'm pretty sure Jason Voorhees cannot read or write.
I really liked this video from @msolurin.bsky.social . Reminds me of my mixed feelings about Dunham and the vitriol a lot of people who claim to have progressive values pretend to forget that they frequently treated people so hideously in Twitter's heyday. www.youtube.com/watch?v=FnAC...

Over the last week, American diplomats have gotten into trouble in Denmark, France and Lebanon. Trump and his cronies are getting into stupid fights all over the world. www.thenation.com/article/poli...
For 12 months, America had a limited proof of concept for universal healthcare, and it was so uniformly successful we had no choice but to obliterate our society
Force RFK to show us the science behind these decisions.
Where are the lawsuits? RFKs position itself should be threatened but I don't see that happening.
This is telling: People I spoke to are talking about CDC in the past tense. www.statnews.com/2025/08/28/c...
“When I call Kennedy a ‘dangerous crank,’ I'm not saying that as an insult or as hyperbole, but honestly as the most economical way of describing the man's views,” says @chrislhayes.bsky.social on RFK Jr.
1. The US Dept. of HHS, headed by RFK Jr., has announced that it will hold $81 million in sex-ed funding hostage unless schools drop all mention of trans people. It could lead to a decimation of sex-ed funding in needed areas. The latest from S. Baum. Subscribe to support our journalism.
I can't wait to continue to not patronize Cracker Barrel.

This is a hell of a letter. “The intentional eroding of trust in low-risk vaccines…will bring us to a pre-vaccine era where only the strong will survive and many if not all will suffer….Eugenics plays prominently in the rhetoric being generated…”
The shooter was trans. The shooter was a fan of Brenton Tarrant and Anders Breivik. One of these pieces of information hit the press and one of them didn't.
One thing that’s funny about this is that he didn’t actually live in New York City.
Columbine happened when I was in high school. That's how little one party gives a fuck. It's not even necessarily their voters since polls show they'd be okay with stricter gun laws. One party and one relatively small but wealthy lobbying force.
people love bringing up japan when it comes to deporting immigrants/ creating a homogenous society, but if you bring up japan's anti-gun laws it's "woah woah woah"
I have found a lot of use for Melinda Cooper’s concept of the anti-social state: a government that exists only to extract wealth and inflict violence, and dismantles all its pro-social and life-enabling functions. www.dissentmagazine.org/online_artic...
So far, Tully’s favorite TV shows are THE SIMPSONS and ALIEN: EARTH.
Can’t say it’s looking good.
Show me the first image that burned into your brain when you first discovered the horror genre. I saw Halloween on VHS as a 3-year=old, my very earliest movie memory, my earliest memory, period. Michael impaling Bob on the door was something in my head until I saw the film again at the age of 10.
The media normalizing Trump is part of it. How is the world sane if his behavior is treated as normal?
At least we have identified one clear instigating force, this web of supremacist mass shooter worshippers.
Yes. The argument coming up again and again is frustrating. People just need to admit that they mostly don't want to leave Twitter because of the following they built. I get it, but that's kind of all it is because otherwise it's a toilet.
How long have they been falsely identifying trans people as mass shooters and now, just this once, the odds gave them something. I hope people are looking into what they need to do legally when certain people try to roll out actions based on this bullshit. Get ahead of this.
they’re calling the most recent shooter in minnesota trans to ignore the fact that there has been an organized group of far-right suicidal school shooters and this person is very likely going to be linked to them as well
The original Deathstalker is not a good movie, but it is very entertaining if the sleazy exploitation elements don't give you trouble and of the sword and sorcery / Conan rip-offs. it's probably a distant second after Albert Pyun's The Sword and the Sorcerer.
They actually kept the theme music, which is wonderful. As expected, this doesn't look nearly as T&A happy as the original film, but I lke that three actor have played Deathstalker three different ways so the characterization doesn't matter at all. www.youtube.com/watch?v=fAdo...
The person was also into Nazi shit but they're going to pick her being trans as the problem rather than her having an attraction to a violent, antisocial ideology.
Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey: "I have heard about a whole lot of hate being directed to our trans community. Anyone using this to villainize our trans community has lost their sense of humanity."
Haven't been feeling Wahlberg for many years but when he's engaged he's good, so we'll see.
We wont do a fucking thing to make sure another child doesn't have this experience, not a thing.

If something happened to be daughter and in response I was told that she is now "with the person who loved her the most," you could not hold me legally liable for what I would do next.
This looks about as true to life as that time when Kane Hodder played Gein. Is there something wrong with casting an actor who can play a twitchy middle aged loser in this role? Michael Wincott did a fabulous job in Hitchcock. He was the best part of that movie.

The problem isn't that their excuse is believable, its that it doesn't even qualify as an excuse.
Under this administration?
There are multiple other potential candidates, two of them definitely much stronger than Newsom, who are much, much better.
9. Michigan’s AG has shown one path forward: warning institutions that capitulation itself may be unlawful. If more AGs follow that lead, they could tip the balance, compelling schools and hospitals to resist rather than retreat, and ensuring that trans lives are not treated as bargaining chips.
1. Michigan's AG Dana Nessel has issued a threat to University of Michigan Health's capitulation to Trump after it banned trans care for youth. She calls their decision likely in violation of state nondiscrimination law, considers action against the hosptial. Subscribe to support our journalism.
Equation to an Unknown is interesting. It feels a little too downbeat and stark for me to find sexy, but its definitely one of the easiest porn films to engage with on an artistic level.
I live in an area with a heavy Hispanic population and have made a few food/delivery orders over the past week and have noticed a complete drop off of Hispanic drivers.
Maybe we shouldn’t let someone who doesn’t believe in germs and who thinks it’s okay to eat roadkill and swim in contaminated ponds be in charge of our national food safety.
I watched the Majority Report suggest that Jefferies has some stuff in his family's past that AIPAC might be holding over his head. It would mean nothig to progressives, but fatal to some other establishment types.
A 20 point swing toward Democrats. Ready to run for office? @runforsomething.net will help. runforwhat.net
WASHINGTON (AP) — Some FEMA employees who signed public letter of dissent are put on administrative leave.
The DNC had 2 Gaza resolutions: A status quo one A stronger one (arms embargo, suspend military aid, recognize Palestine). Proponents even offered a version only on "offensive" arms Still, the DNC voted for former & against latter. …And then it withdrew the resolution, to open a Task Force instead.
My councilwoman @janeese4dc.bsky.social put out a plea to neighbors to not order food delivery because of law enforcement targeting delivery drivers.
I feel like if you're in the bottom 3 of the top 10 films out of over 200 films that came out in 2025 so far, that should be enviable, but all 3 of those movies are considered bombs or underperformers. Pretty dire.
I think like so many movies in the 80s when computer science was becoming a bigger thing for us all, its so often treated like magic because filmmakers didn't really understand it. Same thing with early internet-focused thrillers in the 90s. Hackers may as well have been magicians.
There is a technology angle in this film that I have never quite understood, which is fine because I don't think the movie knows either. Also, I think in the book they're just a different evolutionary strain of wolves, so no quasi-werewolf stuff.
That is not Jodie Forster. She is a writer named Rebecca Godfrey. Not sure why she is pictured.
*I don't even really fuck with Metallica like that, they're okay, I just have a general interest in all this stuff.
I'm suddenly very curious about how a guy like Newsted feels about gigging after being in one of the most famous bands in he world. Genuinely, is that where he wants to be, is that his vibe, or is it a "This is what I can get" thing?*
And if it were me, I would never worry about using spell check again. I'd be too busy being a kept man and going to bed with a woman that losers spend hours creating AI porn of to supplement their fantasies.
This guy is going to be married to the richest woman in the world
You know it's wild when an actor is more believable as being from Middle Earth than being from Puerto Rico.
I love Viggo Mortensen, I love Carlito's Way, but what Viggo Mortensen is doing in Carlito's Way is so outrageous that I think he'd probably rather play Aragorn six more times than to ever be asked to sit through Carlito's Way with an audience.
I was this man’s business staffer. He knows nothing about business and he’s actually rather stupid about the private sector altogether. All he knows is how to curry favor with private sector leaders to fund his campaigns. By “pro-corporate” he means pro grift.
Snoop Dogg recently talked about his years long friendship with Trump's "AI and crypto czar" David Sacks. Snoop Dogg has trading on who he USED to be for many years now. He's not cool, he's not "gangsta", he's just another aging rich guy.
There’s a war on black women because we keep trying to do crazy stuff like stay employed.
Jesus, that bottom right photo. How is that *not* Jodie Foster?
Cost of Trump's D.C. Occupation: $1.1M per day. Cost to operate public housing for D.C.'s entire homeless population: $169,226 per day. It's not about what this country can or can’t afford. It’s about priorities.
One day I went out on my balcony of my apartment for a smoke and saw several $20 bills laying in the grass. Yes, I leapt right over the barrier and grabbed them all. The trail was such that I could probably figure who lost the $80 (guy above me, possibly), but you know, I didn't.
Does anyone know what happened between May and August this year?
A long time I saw someone make a humorous version of this observation, but when we, lay people, come to know the names of an inordinate number of bureaucrats, you know something is fucked up. Why do I know the name of ANY Member of the Federal Reserve Board of Governors of the United States?
When Trump tries to fire Fed officials like Lisa Cook, it’s your 401(k), mortgage, and savings on the line. He is trying to hijack an independent institution that stabilizes our economy to serve his own political interests *once again.*
Grown people: If you are in a professional Zoom meeting, don't tell people you need to "go potty", you're not a fucking child. People don't need to be thinking about you pissing or shitting.
I want to reiterate that Trump's presidency is less the result of progressives not voting or Gaza protests, but low information voters whose lack of knowledge is made worse by a lazy or corrupt media environment. Stupid people win stupid prizes.
North Korea type shit. These are adults, many with children and they behave like this.
So this a celebration of an engagement, which is basically... nothing?
She's going to talk to kids about some shit that will inspire them to do the least and badly. Perfect.

I'll be curious to see if Kosinski is quietly sent to director's jail.
It's crazy that they gave Kosinski that much money for something that wasn't at least Top Gun 3.
Box Office talk is kind of strange these days because I think studios are being very hush-hush about some significant problems, like how Brad Pitt's F1 is one of the biggest bombs in recent memory. Production budget of $300M+, not even $200M domestic and the studio only gets 60% of that anyway.
If you woke up naked in a Wal-Mart parking lot, coming down off three different drugs and spackled in six guys' semen, that would be more dignified than this bullshit. Embarrassing.
