I perform at UCB, write/direct things like Childrens Hospital, Bajillion Dollar Propertie$, Hotwives of Orlando and I drink milkshakes. Now you know me.
@fisackerly I am quite certain that, when it makes lots of money, it will not be the last Dune. We will be buried in Dunes forever.
But at least without Villeneuve doing them, he'll be free to make something like Arrival again. Maybe.
@fisackerly I tricked myself with the second Dune. I thought to myself "Maybe I just was not in the mood for the first Dune. I should try this one." I was wrong.
My understanding is that there are many Dune books and thus, I fear I will have to hear about Dune movies forever.
It's wild how much when Republicans win, the NY Times and NBC et all run tons of "We talked to conservatives about the election" pieces, and when Democrats win, they ALSO run tons of "We talked to conservatives about the election" pieces.
One thing the last week revealed is that lots of people (conservatives, rich tech goons, the sorts of people who read and/or write The Free Press etc) truly thought that Trump 2.0 was a permanent thing. And now they're all unable to comprehend the idea that "things change."
When Schumer was still in "duck and cover" mode after 2024, Van Hollen flew to El Salvador where Kilmar Ábrego García had been illegally sent to CECOT and did not stop until Trump was forced to follow the law.
This is the kind of voice that should be leading Democrats right now.
@fisackerly Also, she’s done other songs that are clearly influenced by The Waitresses. Her whole thing is synthesizing 80s and 90s alt pop stuff into music that sounds current! She’s very good at it!
Imagine how nightmarish it would be to see Gavin Newsom run against JD Vance. Two men with absolutely no moral core employing an army of failed screenwriter 35 year olds to make memes for them.
If we commit to shitting on Newsom every day, we can stop this horrible future.
(Centrists spend months pushing Islamophobia and red-baiting to try to take down Abdul El-Sayed.)
(El-Sayed wins by the exact percentage he predicted he would)
Centrists: Why did El-Sayed underperform?!?!

It's so fucking funny that Elon and a bunch of the Comedy Store's most racist comics all pitched a fit and moved to Texas to get away from Democrats and now Texas is blue.
Only way to take it is that they're so off-putting to be around, that they turned a whole state liberal.
