Sure, there are opera fans in the country, but this pales in comparison to Trump's other crimes, right? We all get that.

What % of people expressing OUTRAGE over the Kennedy Center do you think have actually paid to see a performance there? Gotta be under 1%.

It's worth remembering that tacky Vegas Strip art is legit the best they can do. They want these installments to inspire awe at their power and majesty, and this is what they came up with.

It's like he was writing an illustrated children's book but then forgot it was for kids partway through. "To the bar goes a truck" is objectively hilarious.

Thankfully people like Mamdani and El-Sayed get it but DSA/leftists simply have to accept solid rhetorical acumen and better media training is essential to your campaign. It’s unfair, but we live in a media culture where saying Thanksgiving sucks is political suicide but genocide denial isn’t.

I'm doing alright, yeah. I'm over here sometimes! I don't follow nearly as many people, so my feed doesn't update nearly as often, so I think of new things to post over here a lot less. But I'm around.

If this new tax even applies to a RETIRED DIPLOMAT who lives in PARIS and inherited a Greenwich Village townhose that had just had a yearslong multi-million dollar renovation... who WON'T they tax?!

OK but we definitely don't need dark sarcasm in the classroom. He's still making some points.

Honestly not sure the first R rated movie I saw in any format, but theatrically, it was for sure 1990's DIE HARD 2.

For this reason, I would go with Nicolas Cage, who I feel strongly would show up and give it 110% if he made the commitment.

Lon Harris @lons.bsky.social · 05/07/2026
Bill Murray would be totally awesome if you felt confident that he would actually show up and try his best, but I feel like there's a strong possibility he would either not show up or do a bad job.

Honestly, ARMY OF DARKNESS is right there on the edge, too, but I give it the horror nudge because its part of a horror franchise.

Lon Harris @lons.bsky.social · 04/07/2026
Yeah, I don't really think UNDERWORLD is horror either. Or stuff like VAN HELSING. These are action films with a horror-themed setting.

Like, casinos exist to exploit gamblers but they don't know EVERYTHING ABOUT YOU.

Lon Harris @lons.bsky.social · 28/06/2026
Yeah, their data on everyone's tastes and patterns PLUS their ability to make content addictive esp. for younger people... it's just the worst possible platform to host anything associated with gambling. So obviously open for horrifying abuses.

Lon Harris @lons.bsky.social · 28/06/2026
Yeah, I really do think we should intervene and stop this. The "oh but it's a points system, like a video game!" thing is obviously a distraction. Meta wants to teach young people how to gamble, and then connect their platform with Kalshi or Polymarket, who will gladly take your money.

"It's beneath the SANCTITY of the White House!" Does the White House have sanctity? It was built by some slaves. A lot of horrible shit has gone down there. It's just a building, aftger all. These guys are behind some brutal acts of real world villainy. Let's focus.

Lon Harris @lons.bsky.social · 14/06/2026
It's crass, sure, but I can only get so upset about President Crimes doing dirt bikes and backyard wrestling at the White House. As his Crimes go, this one is mostly victimless. I guess I just don't have a lot of patriotic zeal around monuments or landmarks or whatever.

I actually think #4 would probably be "Nobody Does It Better," and then "You Know My Name," and THEN "Live and Let Die." I'm a McCartney/Wings fan generally but that's never really been one of my faves.

MR. MOM came out in 1983 and people were already like "Wow, this seems a bit dated and retrograde."
