Tweets about anti-vax misinformation

“We’ve forgotten how many people have died, have been sick or continue to get sick from COVID-19 as well as many other vaccine-preventable diseases,” a group of health experts said as they proposed three ways to counteract the false narrative.https://t.co/6xQlclxFNO

I am worried on two fronts here. First is that we could get some anti-VAX white supremacists and insurrectionists Joining because they don’t have to be vaccinated. Second, as more variants & other viruses emerge, we could have devastating outbreaks threatening national security. https://t.co/qx6sOEyoDA

The alliance of alternative healers and libertarians gave fresh life to what had been a tiny, fringe anti-vax movement. Indeed, around 2010, the health-freedom surge began transforming anti-vax views into a core right-wing value. https://t.co/F35QV3BEXc

Article on movie projection in theaters

This article, on the dire state of projection in many of America’s movie theater chains, needed to be written, and I’m so glad Lane Brown was the one to do it. https://t.co/qhPyQQY3VH

I’ve had about 4-5 instances at theaters within the last two years where there was an issue with the projection that impacted the viewing experience.

Most recently: WAKANDA, where the first 7 minutes of the movie played without sound. We had to hunt down an employee to fix it. https://t.co/ibhs6quYlz

Word on the street is that Trump may be arrested today. This will be the first president that this has ever happened to.

I thought, "what if all of the presidents were comic book villains?"

This, here is my newest list of presidents you never asked for.

A presidents thread that I created using midjourney and photoshop.

I started this last week, you asked for it tonight. I can't say you never asked for it.

Your presidents, but instead of the oval office they are making wine in the toilets in their cell.

Good Morning.

It's time for another "Presidents You Didn't Ask For."

Though I'm sure some of you have.

Here are the Presidents if they were carefully crafted by Jim Henson For the Muppet Show.

Ricou Browning

Ricou Browning, who played the Creature From the Black Lagoon when he was underwater, passed away. I met him at Blobfest several years ago and got his autograph (shown below) on a booklet from a set of Universal monster films.

RIP Ricou Browning. One of the men who played the Creature From the Black Lagoon (also, I'm told, one of the creators of Flipper!) pic.twitter.com/oXddAEFG04

RIP Ricou Browning. He was an actor and also a prodigious swimmer, and what makes his underwater performance as the Gill Man memorable is that he’s not just swimming, he’s acting while swimming. You feel like there’s a character beneath those scales. https://t.co/oQfdERFRa3 https://t.co/UMPpiP1uO2

We just heard that one of the last of the greats has passed at 93.

Ricou Browning was an actor, producer, stuntman, and director, but he's best known for playing the Gill Man in CREATURE FROM THE BLACK LAGOON and its sequels. Rest in peace to a legend. pic.twitter.com/wJguoYO5r5

Weird 1970s TV musical numbers

More evidence – as if more were needed – that the 70’s were entirely bonkers.

It’s 1977 and THE BRADY BUNCH HOUR – with that madcap sitcom family performing the Motown classic ‘Get Ready’ with The Kroftettes swimmers.

More on Trump being the GOP favorite for 2024. His cult is still powerful

It doesn’t matter what he says – his cult is fine with his lies and bigotry

It doesn’t matter what he does – the cult is fine with the insurrection and they won’t care if he is indicted

The rest of the GOP is cowardly – they won’t do much to criticize him because they need his voter base

Trump is the favorite to win the GOP primary and it's not as competitive as commentators make it out to be

Emerson: Trump leads DeSantis 55%-25%
YouGov: Trump leads DeSantis 47%-39%
Echelon: Trump leads DeSantis 46%-31%
Fox: Trump leads DeSantis 43%-28%https://t.co/nwUqII32jf

YouGov shared some Trump-vs.-DeSantis polling with me that raises an interesting point.

Trump tops RDS on a variety of personal and issue metrics, a reminder that he is very well-defined in a way that disadvantages his opponents. https://t.co/BRqoeEeIIL

The Republican Primary is already over. Even the woman literally wearing the DeSantis tee picked Trump. If you think Trump’s done with the Republican Party or that the Republican Party is done with Trump, you’re fooling yourself. pic.twitter.com/hPjVVjILWz

Tweet on actress Michele Morgan

Michele Morgan was a French actress who also made films in the US. I think the first one I saw her in was Passage to Marseille with Humphrey Bogart. I have also seen Port of Shadows and Joan of Paris. She was excellent and I recommend these films. They are all on discs.
