The left must extend grace and good faith to the faction who, up until 24 hours ago, believed the culturally hegemonic position was that every man wants to be a pedophile for gender-swapped fictional characters from children’s books. The fate of the Republic depends upon it.

I need every political consultant in the D.C. beltway furiously studying the Senator from Michigan’s innovative campaign strategy, a strategy for which I have long advocated: Being unrelentingly rude to people who suck.

If a UK citizen, you owe these folks a read of their stories after yesterday's indefinite leave to remain news. Many of the headlines have focused on the carve-out being made for care workers, but this remains an exceptionally cruel set of policy decisions.

a little browsing on skilledworkersUK subreddit tells you that people's lives are upended for no reason. it's hard to imagine anyone who's not limited by family or relationships is not gonna leave. "I'm going home, so I guess the reform voters won".

And there it is, prominent gender critical TERF / Sex and Race Realist Kathleen Stock begins the drumbeat on re-normalizing conversion therapy and abuse of lesbian and gay kids. It was never going to stop at trans people.

So sick of well meaning friends saying ‘oh don’t worry you’ll be fine you’re a legal migrant and you have a job,you’ve been here years, they won’t mean you.’ Nothing I say gets through to them that I am EXACTLY the target with these earned settlement rules.

We are now at the date of the dark cyberpunk future as dreamed of by Rodney in Only Fools and Horses, in which the global megacorp Trotters Independent Trading, run by Del Boy's evil son Damien, orders the US President to declare war on China.

Bong Joon Ho recently talked about the mixed reception to Mickey 17. He admitted that he struggled directing a big-budget film, but nonetheless he owned up to the final result & encouraged people to "shit on him" if they were unsatisfied. Just wanted to throw that out there as a counter-example.

Bong pointed out that while Mickey 17 wasn’t his first English-language film, it was still “my first time working with a classic old Hollywood studio. In terms of the actual filmmaking and the mechanism of creating the film, I thought there weren’t really any differences in the process. But because it had quite a big budget—it was my first film that had a budget above $100 million—I felt a lot of psychological, mental pressure. So I think naturally I’m going to work on smaller films from now on.” https://gizmodo.com/bong-joon-ho-on-the-lessons-he-learned-from-mickey-17-2000759224And to those who thought Mickey 17 sucked, he’s aware you’re out there—and he has a self-deprecating way of dealing with it. “Luckily, all my films have been released as my director’s final cut, even a movie as big as Mickey 17, and all the good parts of that film and all the bad parts of that film came from me,” he said. “I take full responsibility. So shit on me if you didn’t like it!” https://gizmodo.com/bong-joon-ho-on-the-lessons-he-learned-from-mickey-17-2000759224

Taika Waititi has branded critics “sad lost souls” after ‘KLARA AND THE SUN’ became his lowest-rated film on Rotten Tomatoes. He also called critics “irrelevant, out of touch, obsolete” and said they belong “in the bin.” #KlaraAndTheSun #TaikaWaititi
