for as long as i've been alive, republicans have ran the same playbook: a few weeks before voting begins, they roll out completely fabricated smear campaigns. these things are always coordinated, so the talking points take over the news. the party is never electorally punished for their dishonesty.

Repeat after me: Yes on 40, no on 41 and 42, which are designed to cancel out 40!

I also think it’s v difficult to successfully impose visuals on series which have lived mainly in readers’ imaginations for decades. Everyone has their own idea of what Merriman Lyon (or Fflewddur Fflam, or Meg Murray, etc.) looks like, how do you please everyone?

Yeah, it’s been so long since I’ve read them that I don’t remember how much actual camera-capturable action there is (in *any* of the series I listed) vs impressions that go on inside the characters’ heads. There may not be enough content to work well onscreen, for all my fond memories.

And how do they have so little pride in what they do, to be so willing to hand off THEIR work to a substandard result machine & still put their name on it?? How does *anyone* who uses it?!

There was a film, which was extremely not-good. (No disrespect to the good actors who were involved.) Largely because it was made by Americans to be marketed to Americans, imo. Do not let us touch TDIR in any capacity.

L’Engle’s Time Quintet The Dark Is Rising sequence The Chronicles of Prydain I’m terrible at translating book-to-screentime, though. I feel like you’d need 10 hours per book, but that might be ridiculous overkill.

They’re live-streaming the execution of the person they think they can get away with doing that to first. It’s a test. If they can do that, they’ll expand the margins of permission.

They are not entities capable of “acting on their own”. That’s not what happened, so why report it that way? They’re programs, doing exactly what their creators programmed them to do.

This is 100% correct But also Hegseth is a gleeful sadist who delights in forcing the spectacle on the unwilling — if it were within his power to make us all to watch this depravity, A Clockwork Orange style, he absolutely would.

It’s really remarkable to me that 10 years into this people feel compelled to “clarify” Trump’s homicidal and often genocidal fantasies. It is deranged for the president to daydream about American cities in states he hates getting blown up. Full stop.

Why does everything they do end up looking so *tacky*?! They want so desperately to be artists — or at least to be the arbiters of what Art is allowed to be — but they stay grievously talentless, and all their taste is in their mouths. Still, could be worse — at least it doesn’t look like Musk.

*so important*: if you’re voting by mail, assume the USPS will delay because it’s its policy. You can: —put it in drop box —go to counter to watch them postmark in front of you —if you’re dropping it in a mailbox, do it VERY EARLY.

Firstly, I hope he does. Secondly, it will be even better than it was before — it’ll be astonishing how quickly that will happen. Everything these monsters have wreaked will be reversed & erased, and they will be remembered solely for being malignant, traitorous assholes.
