"Thelma" (2024) is exactly the kind of incredibly enjoyable, low-stakes movie we all have been asking for. This movie is so sweet and charming and thoughtful. A delight.

We need more, but credit where due: both The Nation (June 2024 issue) and Boston Review have run a breakdown of the Project 2025 “Mandate for Leadership” document. Media Matters, too. Lots of good work going on digesting this.

I understand how juicy the “is Biden too old?” story is for The New York Times and the Washington Post but there’s also the story that one political party is promising to end democracy. They might want to write some more stories about that.

this idea that the bible was a significant influence on the constitution is obviously widespread but i've always been struck by insane it is. not that evidence matters to these people but if there's anything we know for certain about the 1787 convention it's that the bible had nothing to do with it.

I like several versions of “Franchise Series” — in fact I think some entries are among the best movies ever made. And yet some are awful and I find a few entires to be absolute shit. And yet I don’t base my entire online personality on this and I just live my life.

Donald Sutherland, a master actor, elevated everyone around him. He was the spark of M*A*S*H, the mesmerizingly still center of Klute, the hapless, decent dad who held Ordinary People together, the key to Don't Look Now. No Oscar noms? That oversight belongs in the Academy's obit, not in his. RIP.

absolutely this. republicans thrive on decline! republican policies bring economic decline which brings outmigration of young people and professionals, which strengthens the republican hold on government which brings even more conservative policies which brings greater decline, etc.
