I don't wish this job on anyone, but someone should do a history of how Trump's social-media pronouncements get particularly rageful/hateful/insane on holiday weekends. Maybe there's something about being alone while others celebrate, or vague, in-and-out awareness that he's waning and hated, etc.

There are many kinds of responsibility, and editorial boards should not ignore them. Driven by hatred, racism, and contempt, Trump and his team created the conditions that put National Guard reservists--as well as entire urban populations--at risk. And now a young woman they used as a prop is dead.
There's a weird collective self-justification among reporters on this beat that their job is not to push back but to be stoic in order to observe an endlessly fascinating natural phenomenon. It's all nonsense. He is a public servant. Demand decency, and slap back hard and fast when you don't get it.
I'm thinking of the National Guard shooting victims today, and hoping for the best for them. And I am also thinking about the craven politicians who decided to put them in harm's way because they choose to govern by menacing and by staging stunts. May the fates they deserve befall every one of them.
We're hosting 12 people for Thanksgiving but they are all nice and sane and normal, so I guess we'll just talk about movies! I wish all of you a happy day of easy discourse, and if you can't have that, I hope you win every fight. I'm thankful for almost all of you! Exceptions have been blocked. xox
World AIDS Day was cofounded by an American journalist--James Bunn, a San Francisco reporter who was the first person at a local TV station to make the AIDS crisis his beat, in 1983. An administration that did not loathe the press, history, and knowledge itself might have considered honoring that.
The number of people who have said "I don't know who you're talking about" (and whose eyes have said "nor do I care") when I've brought up the Nuzzi-Lizza story is one thing that gives me hope that we can rebuild civilization after All This has come to an end.
There has always been a type of person who becomes a journalist because they want to get next to power or success or fame. It is dumb to be reflexively cynical and suggest that that is all, or most, journalists. But they're the dangerous ones, and what's frustrating is, they're not hard to spot.
Caring about and remembering other human beings is just too woke for the GOP, which, not coincidentally, did its very best to usher them into the grave.
SCOOP: The Trump administration has instructed employees and grantees not to use U.S. funds to commemorate World AIDS Day — because the observance was started by the World Health Organization.

Take a moment today to check in with older people who seem disconnected from reality and may be unwell.
The whole song sounds to me like what passive-aggressive eighth-grade girls write in each other's yearbooks. "Even though we did not get along and there was that kickball incident, I truly respect your inability to fit in. Although we are going to different schools next year I will always" etc.
Yes! Also, how is that going "to clear the air"?
Ugh, just texted “Thanks.” to someone when I meant “Thanks!” No recovering from that.
No, but I'm moving it up my list!
The idea that this, of all companies, could take over Warner Brothers is just...horrific and insane. It's like saying, "Hey, I have a great idea--what if the Discovery Channel took over HBO?"
Wait.
Oh shit.
Some $ context, since people still think of Paramount as a huge studio: It's barely had a pulse for a while. The now-deadish Mission: Impossible series was its only movie in the US top 25 this year. So it's naturally frantic to build a 2026-28 lineup. And mining IP is easier than reading scripts. >
This is disgraceful toadying to someone who could well be dead, out of office, or both by the time this reanimated corpse knuckle-drags itself to the screen. Some context: Ratner directed the state-approved Melania doc that is coming to Prime, so he's now a friend of The Family. >
They work so hard at this time of year, coming down the chimney and stuffing joy back into large burlap sacks.
Niche post for critics and movie-awards-season nerds: Don't sleep on The Plague, a superb, excruciatingly tense American debut film--not horror, but in its way terrifying--about being a 12- or 13-year-old boy among other 12- or 13-year-old boys. Opens next month; it's haunted me since I saw it.
