The Ramaswamy ad has pushed the largest newspaper in Ohio, the Cleveland Plain Dealer, to reverse its position on endorsements. "A candidate who uses childhood sexual abuse as a weapon against the person who endured it has crossed a line that Ohioans should defend, whatever their party."

(1/2) #KY06 #LexingtonKY It's been an awesome weekend to canvass for @progressky and Zach Dembo for Congress here in Lexington! Support for Zach in my neighborhoods has been high, and at least one time I had a resident grateful to learn that we can vote early this week (Thursday through Saturday).

The Boogeyman {2023} Works best when the monster is a metaphor for agonizing grief, less so when it’s dumbed down into a plain ol’, y’know, monster. But Thatcher’s an awesome shero, and 10YO Blair really sells the scares. (7/10 stars) www.rottentomatoes.com/m/the_boogey...

Castle Rock (Season 1) {2018} A sort-of love letter to diehard 😊 Stephen King fans; a potent occult/outré horror story for all genre lovers. Everything hinges on the strength of the actors; (un)happily, they make it all riveting. (8/10 stars) www.rottentomatoes.com/tv/castle_ro...

I see we're having a debate about whether it's okay to go back to "X," the site owned by a trillionaire fascist who is currently bankrolling the GOP's midterm, throttled Ukraine's war effort, and still winkingly allows vast amounts of CSAM on his service Answer: No, what the fuck is wrong with you
It would be nice If people acted As if we were all connected. Because we are.
"Evil Dead Burn" {2026} They left all the comedy behind (what gave the original versions their transgressive appeal), but couldn’t even gin up an interesting story or sympathetic characters. What a waste of everyone’s time. 4/10 stars www.rottentomatoes.com/m/evil_dead_...

ENDORSEMENT ALERT: Kentucky deserves someone who'll fight for US, not for Trump's chaos and corruption. Charles knows we need action on healthcare, an end to these ridiculous wars (Iran & Canada) to bring down prices and support our farmers and our bourbon industry.
