I think Abdul El-Sayed would be a good senator, but on the other hand a lot of stupid racist fuckface shitbags seem to have some concerns, so what do I know?

I love Samantha Morton so I tried watching this interview, but I have to say, the way YouTube throws ads right into the middle of sentences is very disconcerting. I guess my old media boomer brain craves the comfort of Merv Griffin saying “Oooh, we’ll be right back” before the commercial.
Mark Harris@markharris.bsky.social · 14h agoI was moved to read Samantha Morton talk about getting fired from the Spike Jonze movie Her in this piece. She was on the set when I was there reporting a story--her work as the voice was done live, and her commitment to what she was doing on the film was extraordinary. deadline.com/2026/08/sama...
i should add- breaking the collarbone of a baby who is the granddaughter of a REPUBLICAN US SENATOR is not a bridge too far for republicans. max miller is the villain in this story but bernie moreno looks like a feckless loser, allowing his party to carry on this way. what a pathetic bunch.
Congratulations @abdulelsayed.bsky.social! Outspent 11 to 1, Abdul proved that people-powered campaigns can still beat big money. Michiganders chose hope over fear, and a future rooted in dignity, justice, and opportunity.
Ha ha, hell yes! Fuck you, James Carville and Bill Maher!
Abdul El-Sayed@abdulelsayed.bsky.social · 6h agoMoney out of politics. Money in your pocket. Medicare for All. Michigan... We won. I am so proud to be your Democratic nominee for US Senate. Let's win in November.
He’s putz-adjacent at least.
Ray Anselmo@rayanselmo.bsky.social · 15h ago@johnmoe.bsky.social, @billcorbett.bsky.social, @frankconniff.bsky.social - you guys are on the ground there, I'm not, so you have more observations of this guy than I do. Is Jacob Frey kind of a putz? Or is he a total, complete and utter putz?
Doesn’t anybody out there have any good news to report? I mean, just one piece of… oh wait. variety.com/2026/tv/news...

Bothering working class people at their place of work, ha ha, way to stick it to the man, Ivy League dude-bros!

“Some Republicans are not on board with Trump’s policies,” “A GOP backlash to Trump is brewing,” “These Republican lawmakers could stand in Trump’s way.” There are media headlines like this everyday but they are always always always always bullshit.
What are some of your favourite moments from the last two decades of “Comics Unleashed”?
OK! Magazine@okmagazine.com · 3d agoByron Allen's ‘Comics Unleashed' is getting a two-hour anniversary showcase as CBS settles into its post-Stephen Colbert late-night strategy.
Just about all of the military’s stockpile of precision strike missiles are depleted, leaving America defenseless against reflecting pool vandals.
Remember when we learned our POTUS withholds EMERGENCY AID to states that "didn't vote for him" and everyone was like oh well, that's just what happens now I guess?
The “Is he dead?” ”Is he not dead?” speculation has been going on for weeks, but the fact is there is still not any solid proof that James Carville is alive.
It’s important to understand that when 1.2 million Americans are dying from a disease, any government action is excessive and tyrannical, but if a dozen trans women want to play soccer no government action can go far enough
Lots of people genuinely suffered during Covid, but if your big trauma was that you had to wear a cloth over your face, or you could only eat on the restaurant‘s outdoor patio, or you couldn’t see Wonder Woman 1984 in a theater, please shut the fuck up.
Carville encourages Dems to throw in the towel and just vote for McKinley.
Mediaite@mediaite.com · 3d agoJames Carville Tells Fox News He’s Out of the Democratic Party if Hasan Piker Stays: ‘One of Us is Going to Leave’
Not a fan of anyone on CNN, but the Dana Bash/RFK Jr encounter was mediocre mainstream media vs podcast bro conspiracy culture, and in this case mediocre mainstream media came out on top, which is indicative of just how awful the podcast bros are.
He is now, but he’s from Wisconsin!
Angry Algonquin@angryalgonquin.bsky.social · 3d agoOMG FRANK Juice Box? Is he a Minnesotan?
I’m happy Juice Box is here, but I’m really happy for Billy. He needed a cat companion so bad. He was fucking bored with just me: “Oh wow, Frank is walking to the kitchen. Big if true.” Now he has a constant source of intrigue and fun. BFFs!
100% irrefutable scientific fact: If you are anti-Fauci but pro-this guy, you are a huge fucking asshole.
He stood out and left a big impression on a show that was nothing but actors leaving big impressions. Great actor! Rest In Peace, Vincent Pastore.
Jason Bailey@jasondashbailey.com · 4d agoA gifted actor and VERY nice man (and Bronx neighbor!) who gave me so many good tidbits for the Gandolfini book. RIP deadline.com/2026/08/vinc...
There's a little Fred Flintstone to Alan Ritchson. This is not a complaint, mind you, just an observation.
Sucks so much that it got cancelled, but in case anyone is interested, season one of Étoile is still on Amazon. It’s really, really good, and she is great in it.
EliseZ@vancouver22.bsky.social · 5d agoCHARLOTTE GAINSBOURG 🖤❤️
it really bears repeating over and over and over that the child who allegedly had her collarbone broken by her congressman dad is the granddaughter of SENATOR bernie moreno who has refused to stand up for her, or for his daughter who was allegedly abused, too. what a sick fuck.
