I wish everyone could see how disgusting, dishonest and just plain stupid Republicans are acting at this Jack Smith hearing.

This serves as advertisement for Alex Gibney’s documentary, Musk, opening October 9. Pass it on.

The Major Social Media Platforms Are All Rejecting Paid Ads for Alex Gibney’s ‘Musk’ (Exclusive)
YouTube, TikTok and Meta have all turned down the trailer for the Oct. 9 doc, citing “political” content. X won't even take Bleecker Street's calls. The distributor is appealing.

You can tell, with all of the explicit ethnic cleansing making everything worse and more expensive, the GOP's next target is just to go all out on gender wars. Everyone on X or Rumble is complaining about nagging women 24/7, with brief respites for holocaust denial. Full 4chan incel GOP incoming.

Great reporting on a story where everything is awful: local cops collaborating with ICE, a family without its dad, a congregation without its pastor, US senators coming up empty, a one-way ticket to Haiti.

John Fetterman’s favorability dips as voters see him more as a Republican than a Democrat
Three quarters of likely Democratic voters view the Pennsylvania senator as more of a Republican in a poll conducted after Fetterman participated in Donald Trump's midterm convention.

Aye yai yai, this thread. Among other points he makes: Saudi Arabia, the UAE, and Qatar -- three of the most repressive countries in the world -- will own 49.5% of Paramount Warner Brothers, and CBS, and CNN. What could possibly go wrong?

Visited a gorgeous nature preserve in NE Harbor, ME today and a woman admiring the view told us, “We always say a little thanks to Mr. Rockefeller.” We can argue Rocky’s worth in biz/politics/philanthropy, but no one’s ever going to thank Mr. Musk or Mr. Bezos for giving people something beautiful.

Sunday morning of Labor Day weekend: Still nothing on the White House website about Labor Day. One might think Trump and his administration could care less about working men and women.

One evening during freshman orientation week in 1979, our resident advisor took our whole floor of nerds to South Street to see Rocky Horror at the Theater of the Living Arts (and then next door for cheesesteaks). Transformative and top-notch orientation.

I really cannot think of a greater honor than to have the Muppets say this about you upon your passing
Instagram post from the official Muppets account: Few humans have earned the title of honorary Muppet more than the legendary Tim Curry. As a performer he was unparalleled - witty, charming, unnerving, and deeply funny. We will always consider it one of our greatest treasures to have been part of Long John Silver’s crew. Thank you for everything, Tim.
