The airline has forbidden employees from drinking coffee or "other beverages" in public while in uniform.

No word yet on if this is really a matter of aesthetics, or if the airline is simply convinced that hot beverages are the "Devil's Temperature."

No one demanded that they had to gloat or anything. They simply could've done what they do best - stay silent and do nothing, which would've been far more compassion than that POS ever deserved.

But no, they had to "honor his memories" and "continue his work".

If you had any doubt that most Democrats will either look the other way or cheer him on when Trump starts sending progressives to concentration camps for practicing their 1st amendent right then you're fucking delusional.

However, if reports are to be believed, there’s one person who’s less than thrilled about Jen’s upcoming nuptials. Rumors have been circulating for a while that Ben Affleck isn’t over his ex-wife. And now an insider has revealed that the Gone Girl actor is very much in his feelings about the news.

The source told Radar Online: “For Ben, it’s torture. He was clinging to the hope she’d have second thoughts and call it off, but now that’s clearly not happening. He has to get his head around the fact she’ll be officially wed and tied down to someone else who’s going to be living under the same roof and spending time with his kids.”

While there was talk of the exes getting close again following Ben’s split from Jennifer Lopez, it seems there was little truth to it.

So, what’s next for Ben? Are there any single Jens left in Hollywood?

CAPE CORAL, Fla. — Former Republican North Carolina Congressman Madison Cawthorn was arrested Wednesday on an out-of-county warrant for failing to show up in court.

Cawthorn was scheduled to appear in court for an arraignment in Collier County. He was cited by Naples Police for driving without a valid license on Aug. 19.

According to the Collier County Clerk of Courts, a warrant was issued Wednesday morning after Cawthorn failed to show up to the arraignment scheduled for 8:30 a.m.

Cawthorn has been living in Cape Coral, and he was released on a $2,000 bond, according to the Lee County Sheriff's Office.

A statement was shared with Gulf Coast News from Cawthorn:

"Former Congressman, Madison Cawthorn, was arrested earlier today for failure to appear for a routine traffic infraction. Madison keeps a very busy schedule and, due to a scheduling misunderstanding, did not appear in court this morning. Following processing Madison was immediately released."

According to Cawthorn, police knocked on his door and arrested him at his home.

After losing his election in 2022 in North Carolina, Cawthorn has been rumored to be running for Congress in Florida's District 19.

Previously, Cawthorn was involved in a crash along Alligator Alley in Collier County in 2024 where the report stated he slammed into the back of a Florida State Trooper vehicle.

Good God what a bad movie! I watched it for the first time last night and couldn't believe how bad and dirty it was. I'm usually a fan of Michael Douglas but this was just horrible. Did we need to hear 100 times that his penis was in Demi Moore's mouth? Donald Sutherland is underused and just stands or sits and smiles. Demi is sort of hot, sort of fat and has a weird Gary Oldman in Dracula hairstyle going on. The movie is trying to say something about how women in power can be just as bad and abusive as men but it fails miserably by combining this message with some crappy, virtual reality nonsense that looks really dated.

And what's up with Michael Douglas and all the women in his movies? He fucks attractive women and then they turn on him and try to destroy him or kill him.

Some researchers suspect that rising prescription drug use may explain a disturbing trend.

Public health experts have warned of the perils of falls for older people for decades. In 2023, the most recent year of data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, more than 41,000 Americans over 65 died from falls, an opinion article in JAMA Health Forum pointed out last month.

More startling than that figure, though, was another statistic: Fall-related mortality among older adults has been climbing sharply.

The author, Dr. Thomas Farley, an epidemiologist, reported that death rates from fall injuries among Americans over 65 had more than tripled over the past 30 years. Among those over 85, the cohort at highest risk, death rates from falls jumped to 339 per 100,000 in 2023, from 92 per 100,000 in 1990.

The culprit, in his view, is Americans’ reliance on prescription drugs.

“Older adults are heavily medicated, increasingly so, and with drugs that are inappropriate for older people,” Dr. Farley said in an interview. “This didn’t occur in Japan or in Europe.”

Yet that same 30-year period saw a flurry of research and activity to try to reduce geriatric falls and their potentially devastating consequences, from hip fractures and brain bleeds to restricted mobility, persistent pain and institutionalization.

The American Geriatrics Society adopted updated fall prevention guidelines in 2011. The C.D.C. unveiled a program called STEADI in 2019. The United States Preventive Services Task Force recommended exercise or physical therapy for older adults at risk of falling in 2012, 2018 and again last year

"Matthew Dowd made comments that were inappropriate, insensitive and unacceptable," MSNBC President Rebecca Kutler said in a statement.

MSNBC has apologized and reportedly fired analyst Matthew Dowd over on-air comments he made about the fatal shooting of conservative activist Charlie Kirk.

Multiple media outlets, including Deadline, Variety and The Hollywood Reporter, reported that the network had fired Dowd, whose comments sparked backlash after Kirk, a close political ally of President Donald Trump, was shot and killed while speaking at an event at Utah Valley University on Sept. 10. Authorities were still searching for the shooter, as of early Sept. 11.

Republican and Democratic lawmakers alike were quick to denounce the shooting, which officials have described as a "targeted attack" and "political assassination."

In an interview on MSNBC about the shooting, Dowd said, in part: "You can't stop with these sort of awful thoughts you have and then saying these awful words and not expect awful actions to take place."

Brazil’s former President Jair Bolsonaro has been found guilty of attempting to overturn the country’s 2022 election with a plot prosecutors say included plans to assassinate the president-elect in a bid to cling to power.

Four out of five justices on a Brazilian Supreme Court panel voted to convict Bolsonaro on all five counts in the landmark case, and to sentence him to 27 years and three months in prison.

Bolsonaro has been convicted of plotting a coup d’état, taking part in an armed criminal organization, attempting to abolish Brazil’s democratic order by force, committing violent acts against state institutions and damaging protected public property during the storming of government buildings by his supporters on January 8, 2023.

Part of the coup plot, prosecutors alleged, involved a plan to potentially use explosives, weapons of war or poison to assassinate leftist President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, his Vice President Geraldo Alckmin and Supreme Court Justice Alexandre de Moraes, who oversaw Bolsonaro’s trial.

For eight years, between 2003 and 2011, the sitcom Two and a Half Men starring Charlie Sheen and Jon Cryer was one of the biggest shows on television — but production had to be halted in 2011 after Sheen's drug addiction spiraled, and the network eventually decided to fire him. (He was replaced by Ashton Kutcher, and the show continued for three more seasons.)

Now, Sheen, who turned 60 on Sept. 3 and has been sober for eight years, is looking back at those tumultuous times in both a memoir (The Book of Sheen, out Sept. 9) and the Netflix documentary (aka Charlie Sheen, streaming Sept. 10). In the new PEOPLE cover story, he shares how grateful he is for Cryer's compassion in the documentary.

Maybe his timing was insensitive, but he spoke the truth. Kirk was a hateful Nazi. His rhetoric is inherently violent. Assassination is not the answer, but now that he’s dead we know the right will turn him into an innocent martyr. The left should not be intimidated. Shame on MSNBC.

But Shirley Jones was probably close to being on the same level as Audrey Hepburn at the time? She was already famous for Oklahoma, Carousel, and The Music Man. She also won an Oscar for Elmer Gentry.

She could actually sing. But could she do two different accents? She arguably could have been a better Eliza Doolittle than Audrey, no?

More big stars are lending their voices to Audible’s seven-part audiobook adaptation of J.K. Rowling’s “Harry Potter” books.

Those joining the cast in several fan-favorite roles include: Kit Harington as Professor Lockhart; Keira Knightley as Professor Umbridge; Iwan Rheon as Professor Lupin; Ruth Wilson as Bellatrix Lestrange; Ambika Mod as Nymphadora Tonks; Leo Woodall as Bill Weasley; Simon Pegg as Arthur Weasley; James McAvoy as Mad-Eye Moody; Gemma Whelan as Professor Sprout; and Matt Berry as Sir Cadogan.

The first audiobook, “Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone,” is scheduled to be released on Nov. 4, 2025, exclusively on Audible, with each of the remaining six English-language audiobooks releasing monthly worldwide.

It’s the third batch of casting announced for “Harry Potter: The Full Cast Audio Editions.” The latest group will join Hugh Laurie as Albus Dumbledore, Matthew Macfadyen as Lord Voldemort, Riz Ahmed as Professor Snape, Michelle Gomez as Professor McGonagall, and Cush Jumbo as the narrator. Last week, Audible and Pottermore announced Mark Addy as Hagrid, Alex Hassell as Lucius Malfoy, Daniel Mays as Dobby, and Sara and Avni Deshmukh as the Patil Twins.

Young actors Frankie Treadaway, Max Lester and Arabella Stanton will play Harry Potter, Ron Weasley and Hermione Granger respectively in audiobooks 1-3. (Stanton is also playing Hermione in HBO’s “Harry Potter” TV series, which is currently in production in the U.K.) Jaxon Knopf, Rhys Mulligan and Nina Barker-Francis will assume the same roles (Harry, Ron, and Hermione respectively) in audiobooks 4-7.

Additional casting for the Harry Potter audiobooks will be announced this fall, the companies said.

I just got out from seeing Twinless and I was surprised by how touching and moving this film was. It’s promoted as this sort of dark comedy, and while it does have some humor it is also very sad, surprisingly so. A very sad but touching story about loss and grief and moving on.

Dylan O’Brien gives such a beautiful performance, so much so that I would love to see him get award acknowledgment for his performance (although it won’t ever happen). I actually loved it so much I want to watch it again.

Prior thread:

I've posted about my mother's decline with early-onset Alzheimer's several times over the years here. She is 71 and was diagnosed ten years ago, although she started showing symptoms around 2013.

Around the time of her diagnosis, she also successfully battled breast cancer. Well, now, it seems the breast cancer has returned with a vengeance, and while they won't perform an ultrasound or biopsy, much less treat the cancer in any way (she has been in hospice care for over two years), it seems she is not long for this world. I can only hope the end is soon, swift, and relatively pain-free.

Losing one's mother sucks. I just finished revising her obituary. Even though I "lost" her many years ago, I could still hug her, wheel her outside to look at the flowers and the birds, talk to her, play her favorite songs for her, just be with her. I'm about to lose that, too. The world seems like a much darker place without my mom in it.

They were careful with the explicit imagery — as usual. But did it make any difference?

Traditional news organizations were cautious in their midafternoon coverage of Charlie Kirk's assassination Wednesday not to depict the moment he was shot, instead showing video of him tossing a hat to his audience moments before, and panicked onlookers scattering wildly in the moments after.

In practical terms, though, it mattered little. Gory video of the shooting was available almost instantly online, from several angles, in slow-motion and real-time speed. Millions of people watched.

A continuation thread for our nattering about Britain's favourite soap.

Welcome to Plathville star Barry Plath has seemingly been working on his revenge body as he has been hitting the gym hard following his split from ex Kim Plath.

The reality TV star, 55, looked unrecognizable when he was seen in a recent selfie with son Micah Plath looking ripped as the father-son duo showed off their bulked-up arms and chest on Saturday, August 26.

Since Barry and Kim announced their split in June 2022, he has found a new love: fitness. “Working out, that’s my new hobby,” the father of 10 said during the trailer for the upcoming season of the family’s reality series. “Blood flows in and everything gets bigger,” he laughed.

The former couple – who share children Ethan, Hosanna, Micah, Moriah, Lydia, Isaac, Amber, Cassia, Mercy and Joshua – shocked fans when they separated after 24 years of marriage. “After considerable thought and discussion, we have decided to end our marriage,” Kim and Barry told People in a joint statement at the time. “While this was not an easy decision, we know it’s the best choice for both of us. We have been through many highs and lows in our 24 years of marriage and as we navigate this new chapter in our lives, we will co-parent our amazing children.”

Prior to their announcement, the pair’s marital struggles played out during season 4 of the TLC series. They revealed they had been living separately for “a while” after Kim told her husband she wasn’t “happy.”

“One thing I thought wouldn’t ever be shaken was us. Now it’s totally shaken up. It’s just really sad. It’s a tragedy,” he told Kim. Kim later explained that she previously felt ignored by her husband when she tried to discuss their marital issues.

“Now it’s gotten to the point where I’m ready to leave the marriage, now he cares,” she added. “But I feel like if I was really worth it, he would have listened earlier.”

While Kim has seemingly moved on from their marriage, hinting at a new relationship in the trailer for the upcoming season, Barry has taken on the role of single parent as he cares for the former couple’s younger children.

“This man right here sets a real high standard for men in my life! I never really realized how important the role that a father plays in his daughter’s life is till I started restoring my relationship with my dad,” daughter Moriah Plath gushed about her father via Instagram in May. “My dad has grown so so much as a person and father and it’s changed my life. I guess the best way to put it is I’m secure! I feel priceless, and I am the most confident in who I am than I have ever been in my life.”

I've been laid up with the flu for the past week and have gone down the YouTube rabbit hole watching police bodycam videos, everything from DUI arrests to drunks getting kicked out of bars to ex-girlfriends stalking their ex-boyfriends. Most of the videos are hilarious (and most take place in Floriduh, of course), and I love how all the people who get arrested inevitably shriek, "I didn't do anything!" as the handcuffs are placed on them. It's also fun watching deadbeats without a dime scream, "I'm calling my attorney," as if these WalMart rejects have a lawyer on retainer.

Anybody else get oddly entertained by these?

It is a dark time for the very heterosexual city of Los Angeles, in which Hobo Ridge and his wrinkled face somehow still captivates both The Slut from the Valley and yet another recast of his other ho, NuTaylor of Cameltoe. Meanwhile, in LA's sole restaurant, Ill Giordino, vile, despicable mistress of evil, Sheila Carter, makes pizza while bonding with her granddaughter, two-time murderer Luna of the Enormous Panties. Wafting throughout the city is the rank odor of Daphne, a perfume expert who can be smelled twenty miles away, making it impossible for her to eavesdrop on nearby conversations. All are looking for one thing that may heal their galaxy: the cure to Zende's explosion from twink to obese, hoping to stop his expanding girth before he outgrows blouses and transitions into caftans--and possibly blocks out the LA sun. Continue the adventure here, where Liam may be dying, Dollar Bill needs pants that don't give him a muffin top, where Hope is hopeless, and JKW wins another Daytime Emmy just for showing up to work in a bad mood. . .

The reunion was a landmark moment for the father and son. Those close to Prince Harry have said that King Charles was not taking his calls, and any messages were left unanswered. Harry has expressed his desire to begin steps towards a rapprochement, telling BBC News in May that he would love a "reconciliation."

50 Years ago on September 8, 1975, CBS premiered the second MTM spin-off in two years, when 'Phyllis' aired starring Cloris Leachman. A year earlier, CBS spun-off costar Valerie Harper from TMTMS into 'Rhoda', the most successful 'new show' of the 1974-75 season. Leachman, an Oscar winning actress, was left on the show playing 'second banana' to star MTM, and was making noise about 'leaving' the show after that season and possibly starring in her own show on another network. CBS panicked, not wanting to lose Leachman, and gave in to her request to star in her own sitcom by spinning her off into her own series. Her show was best with problems from the beginning, when one of the costars on the show was shot to death shortly after filming the third episode. In the first season, the show tried different characters to gel with Leachman, but nothing worked. Ratings were solid, thanks to being sandwiched between the second season of 'Rhoda' and the fourth season of 'All in the Family'. A complete overhaul in season 2 didn't help and ratings fell. The show was canceled at the end of the second season, and aired its last episode just days before Leachman would make her final appearance on TV as 'Phyllis' when she guested on the final episode of TMTMS.

Every clip I see of her she makes this same bucktooth face, never closing her mouth, and her lips seemed to be covered in chicken grease.

I thought he would have a more lucrative career. His “Never Back Down” co-star Cam Gigandet seems to have had the better career, but I was certain Sean would. He definitely is a better actor all around.

First of all, what happened to the gossip? When did it really start to change?

I've been coming to DL since the early 2000s---back when it was free. I maybe posted a handful of times until more recently. Even when I used to pop in around 2014-2015, it seemed substantively different. There were probably less women--- banal comments like "Fuck (insert celeb name)" used to be less typical, a moralistic tone less frequently adopted.

I don't mind the political stuff really (I'm a political creature myself---wasn't the case back when I first found DL), but I do think that it used to skew much towards legit gossip and the cerebral, paradoxically.

Brother of Wendi, Dr. Charlie Adelson, was found guilty of 1st degree murder, conspirator, and sentenced to life. Now mother Donna Adelson, co-conspirator, is on trial and it surely seems she will be found guilty.

Nina Hagen- she started as a high soprano in mid-70s then progressively her voice got lower and lower due to smoking, pregnancies and oversinging. She used to be able to belt up to A5 and use head voice up to G6 and nowadays she is a very low contralto- I heard her latest album in 2022 and she is comfortable to sing D2 in chest voice and goes as low as A1....Most men can't even sing a D2 let alone sing it comfortably.

Mariah Carey- started as a high soprano, consistently belting (not mixing) up to G#5 and using tons of whistle register in 7th octave and nowadays she is lower mezzo struggling with belting C5 and using playback as it's some basic need.

Christina Aguilera- started as soprano being able to hit FS and GS in pure chest voice and using head voice as high as Bb above soprano C and nowadays she barely sing above B4 and using falsetto up to C6.

One of the greatest pop singers of the 20th century.

Any questions?

Alright, alright, I know you are dying to hear me say it

“MOSSHAD!”

DL has been on this one for years. Will this have any impact on his career, or the eventual assessment of his career?

Charlie Sheen is fully opening up about his past in two upcoming new projects — his memoir The Book of Sheen (Sept. 9) and the Netflix documentary aka Charlie Sheen (Sept. 10) — and in both, he gets candid about past sexual experiences with men.

"I flipped the menu over," he says in the Netflix doc and the book, of trying something new after years of having sex with women. He says he's no longer hiding from his past, but owning it. "I'm not going to run from my past, or let it own me," he tells PEOPLE in this week's cover story.

In the documentary when the interviewer asks Sheen how it feels to be talking publicly for the first time about having sex with men, he says, "Liberating. It's f---ing liberating... [to] just talk about stuff. It's like a train didn't come through the side of the restaurant. A f---ing piano didn't fall out of the sky. No one ran into the room and shot me."

Dancing With the Stars host Julianne Hough detailed how her and brother Derek Hough’s older sisters feel about not finding as much success in Hollywood: “There is a sadness.”

“My oldest sister, she started in the Mormon way, so she got married at 19 and had six kids,” Julianne said on the Sept. 9 episode of the Not Skinny But Not Fat podcast. “My second sister moved to Nashville to be a country star and my third sister wanted to be an actress.”

“There's no jealousy, but there is a sadness that maybe there wasn't an opportunity for them to experience it,” Julianne continued of her sisters. “They're so happy, so, so, so happy. They have great lives, and they love their life. But, we had an opportunity that they didn't have. And it's hard.”

No Henry in sight. Is Mary going into showbiz? Looks like they are saying goodbye to the Abbey.

Yup, Ben's mid life crisis not only continues, but gets worse.

Overrated

Mariah Carey- she was...something in the early-mid 90's but then her voice got really tense and noisy. People also do not realize how often she either used full studio playback, prerecorded versions or lip synced hardest parts of songs f.e almost all "We belong together" climaxes were lip synced. She is at the same time so horrible and so good at lip syncing that sometimes u can't tell the difference and sometimes it looks like she couldn't give a flying fuck.

Christina Aguilera- named "the voice of generation" and praised to be a legendary singer with 4 octave range. In reality the quality of her voice is dubious at best- airy pushed low notes, strained basically screamed belts, head voice and falsetto are the best part of ber range and she demonstrated that she can hit decent G6 many times (What a girl wants). Her usable live range is C3-G6 which is less than 4 octaves but still decent. However most of her live performances is using 100 generic runs, glissandos, repeating "hieeeeeeeeyyyy" "yeeahhhhhhjejeeje" and dodging most important high notes - Fighter E5, Beautiful F#5, the voice within F#5. She rarely use playback- most of the times its too hit hard note -like F#5 from aint no other man or long E5 from Candyman. She is def worse than Ariana or Demi a nd the latter praise her like a god.

Underrated

Lady Gaga- despite the fact that Gaga was good singer since 2008 and her abilities only became better she was mostly remembered as attention seeker with weird designs and being a gay icon. Most people do not think about her as a great vocalist. She has great vocal technique, her range is consistent from C#3/D3 up to A5. Her belting really good and resonant.

Beyonce- another one who is imagined as a dancer rather than vocalist. Her entire vocal range a d technique is nearly perfect- she supports down to B2 and can belt as high as G5 with resonance and her head voice is also one of the best in the industry. I think her and Gaga underrated perception of vocals is due to the fact that they are performers- they have dancers around, walk half naked or do other shits while Mariah or Whitney were just standing and singing. (Both are terrible dancers tho).

Can you imagine Adele or Whitney or Kelly or Celine ever doing something like this? Women who can stand up and SING and command the attention of their audience don’t need to resort to trashy distractions.

Paula has a light-hearted energy while addressing Trump about things he and his incompetent cronies say and do, but the messages are astute and on target.

In her own comedic style, Paula is bravely fighting the regime. She does not hesitate to clearly call Trump a liar or dictator.

Brad Pitt – everyone’s favorite 61-year-old actor, producer and beard-grower – is the star of a new espresso machine ad for De’Longhi from Oscar-winning director Taika Waititi.

The gig is not new for Pitt, who’s been a spokesperson for the company since 2021, but it is for Waititi, who won the Academy Award for best adapted screenplay for his film “Jojo Rabbit” in 2019. (Another Oscar-winner, Damien Chazelle, directed Pitt’s first ad for the company.)

Even Pitt’s furry, four-legged co-star seems to be judging his accent a little, but if you believe a dog that gorgeous does anything but judge everyone around it, you haven’t been paying attention.

by Reeves Wiedeman, New York Magazine published August 25, 2025

Ethel Kennedy’s death in October at 96 was the end of a trying few years. Her health had been in decline, and she had confined herself to living full time in Hyannis, the longtime family compound on Cape Cod. In the summer of 2024, her immune system was so compromised that she couldn’t attend the wedding of her granddaughter Mariah Kennedy Cuomo, even though it was being held at her home. “Normally, Ethel would be a part of everything,” one attendee said. “But all she could do was sit on this enclosed balcony and wave at people.”

Ethel’s son Bobby was there, too, although many of the other wedding guests weren’t in a mood to talk to him. Ethel’s relationship with her third child, named for her beloved husband, had always been tempestuous. When Bobby was a young man, she regularly threw him out of the house for drug use and other chaotic behavior; when he was 13, a coatimundi he kept as a pet attacked Ethel and sent her into premature labor with his brother Douglas. In high school, after Ethel excoriated him for getting arrested for marijuana possession in Hyannis, he packed up and drove west without telling anyone in his family where he was going, eventually selling his car and hopping freight trains. Bobby seemed to relish the chance to break away from his family and ride the rails with the other vagabonds. “I could be one of them,” he said later. “And not be a Kennedy.”

Bobby and Ethel eventually made amends. He got sober, and Ethel became a booster of his environmental work. Bobby similarly came to appreciate his mother, writing in his 2018 memoir, American Values: Lessons I Learned From My Family, that her “sharp rebukes no longer trouble me.” That comment goes some way to explaining why Bobby was undaunted by any reservations Ethel had to his plans, announced in the spring of 2023, to challenge Joe Biden for the Democratic presidential nomination.

Ethel never spoke publicly about her son’s campaign, but everyone saw the effect it had. “The one who was brokenhearted — and the family won’t talk about it, but I saw it up close — was Ethel,” a longtime family friend said. She had devoted her life to supporting the Democratic Party, which RFK Jr. was now undermining with his insurgent, conspiracy-riddled, anti-government candidacy. Just a week before Bobby announced his run, President Biden, who had been close to the Kennedys for decades and kept a bust of Ethel’s husband, Robert F. Kennedy Sr., in the Oval Office, had called Ethel from Air Force One to wish her a happy 95th birthday, as he did every year, while flying to Belfast with her grandson Joe Kennedy III, who was serving as his special envoy to Northern Ireland. When Bobby made his candidacy public, Ethel called Biden to apologize for her wayward son. “You don’t have to,” Biden said. “I know about these things.”

I’ve been told that I elevate my friends to the level of family and that I have high standards, because if I text someone, I expect them to text me back within 24 hours — not a week.

It’s true: I do consider my friends my family. I only have one family member left, and they’re living with dementia, so my friends are really all I have. But even when my family was still alive, I always considered my friends to be family.

But that got me to thinking. What’s the point of having friends if you don’t treat them like family? Maybe it’s a gay thing because we had to make our own families.

I'm dying of embarrassment for these two.

I Hate Dump

I know we are all sick to death of him. "Another Dump Thread"... yes. But we can't avoid him. His name is on every 2 out of 3 headlines, his orange ugly face is everywhere. It just keeps getting worse. I refuse to write his real name. Part of that is deliberately to be disrespectful. (Fortunately, there are so many nasty variations that can be made to denigrate him). But I'm also slightly paranoid, and I don't want google searches tracking my online activity.

But I thought it might be therapeutic for some of us to start an all-out hate thread! So this is for those of us, like me, who just can't take it anymore. Here's a safe place, (hopefully), to post how you really feel. Just get it out of your system! On Drumpf, his rotten kids, his nasty, Nazi administration, whoever. Post any horrible denigrating photos you come across. I also advise, like me, you don't use his actual name. Be creative with whatever crude variation you come up with.

I never liked much Jackson Browne music. My father did. I didn’t listen much because of the Daryl Hannah stories. But in his last year alive, my dad mentioned that For A Dancer reminded him of me as a child. I don’t think I heard of the song before or thought of it since.

I watched the Ted Danson show A Man On The Inside, where he plays a widower acting as a detective in a nursing home. And when For A Dancer ended an episode and I immediately burst into wracking sobs.

Kate Middleton and Prince William will be moving their family out of Adelaide Cottage and into Forest Lodge in Windsor. However, the Prince and Princess of Wales's relocation to their "forever home" isn't free from scandal.

According to a new report, Kate and William's new Forest Lodge neighbors have allegedly been told they can't remain in their homes, suggesting the couple's "true colors" are on display in their decision to move.

The Mail on Sunday reported that, before Kate, William, and their children move into the "300-year-old Forest Lodge," a number of neighbors will need to move. In fact, "two separate families who lived in cottages next to the country mansion were asked to vacate their properties."

Some gay pornstars goes on rant how gay sex is just a chore that means nothing, that they are 100% str8 and its just acting and how dare you think they enjoy being plowed in the ass and cumming all over their abs and then gays gaslight themselves by saying it's just the way it is/ gay porn without straight men would be bad/we should be happy they allow us seeing their hole and dick etc.

The moment a straight pornstar like Johnny Sins would start ranting how gross and indifferent to him is pussy and how much he loves sucking dick off camera all his co-stars, producers and directors would destroy him.

So why the double standard?

I just saw a preview showing of this movie opening on Friday.

It's definitely the best of all the movies, most of which have been terrible. You remember why you love all the characters. As cliched as it sounds--you'll laugh and you'll cry,

It's about handing down duties to the next generation --both upstairs and downstairs. I loved it!

I'll start. I hate it when characters die and are brought back to life by some form of magic. It's been a constant especially in sci-fi and horror films. It kills the suspense because what it means is no one is at risk.

A judge in a wig and gown beats an unarmed protester with a gavel in a new work by Banksy at the Royal Courts of Justice, which has already been covered up. The artwork, which is on an external wall of the Queen’s Building, part of the Royal Courts of Justice complex, has been concealed by large sheets of black plastic and two metal barriers.

The artist confirmed he is responsible for the work with a post on Instagram, showing the graffiti before it was covered over. The latest work comes after almost 900 demonstrators were arrested for protesting against the banning of Palestine Action as a terror group in central London on Saturday. Several others have previously been charged with allegedly expressing support for the group, which was proscribed under anti-terror laws by then-home secretary Yvette Cooper earlier this year.

BROOKLAND, Ark. (KAIT) - Farmers from across the state are asking for help before it’s too late.

Hundreds of farmers gathered in Brookland to speak with representatives of Arkansas leaders to share with them their urgent plight: the difficulties they face in farming today.

Many farmers spoke out at the meeting.

Their message was straightforward: We need help, and we need it now.

Brown said one issue that rounds out all the problems farmers are facing: tariffs.

“I think the tariffs are the ice cream on the cake of a perfect storm,” said Brown. “When you try and sell a product, okay, U.S. soybeans leaving New Orleans without the tariff to China are cheaper than Brazilian soybeans, at the current market. But when you put the tariff on top of them, Brazilian beans are cheaper.”

What can be done to help farmers?

[bold] “In the short term, they have no choice but to mail us a check,” [/bold] said Brown. “I don’t know a farmer that likes the check program. Nobody wants to take the taxpayer dollars, but nobody wants to go broke, nobody wants to lose everything. Long term, we have to have options, markets, and places to sell our product.”

The Wednesday star, 55, was a guest on the Late Night with Seth Meyers show last week, when she detailed a recent encounter with a 12-year-old fan.

The actress was promoting the second season of her hit Netflix series and opened up about gaining a 'new generation of fans.'

She recalled playing golf with her husband Michael Douglas, 80, when a young fan approached.

'I was practicing, and this really cute 12-year-old boy came up and asking for my autograph, and it was like really cute, and then I went "Haha. When I'm 70 this cute little boy will be like 33."'

It’s been 50 years since The Rocky Horror Show first did the Time Warp (again). While the mind flip of a musical remains searingly relevant in today’s cultural landscape, its journey from a 60-seat theatre in London to more cinema screens than could ever possibly be tallied hasn’t exactly been A to B to C. Now, for the first time, that journey has been preserved in the form of an endearingly personal documentary.

Titled 'Strange Journey: The Story of Rocky Horror,' the 89-minute doc is directed by Linus O’Brien (son of Rocky Horror’s originating supernova Richard O'Brien), and features intimate archival recordings from Rocky Horror history, from its earliest whispers to its most raucous fan events. Interspersed are interviews with many of the stage show (and the Rocky Horror Picture Show) stars, including Tim Curry, Susan Sarandon, Barry Bostwick, and of course, Richard O’Brien.

Larry Ellison has overtaken Elon Musk as the world’s richest person after shares in his software giant Oracle soared on Wednesday.

Ellison’s fortune was up $101 billion mid-morning after the company’s revenue forecasts for the next five years caused its market value to rise 44% to more than $959 billion.

The increase puts Ellison’s estimated fortune at $393 billion, per Bloomberg Billionaires Index, ahead of Musk, who is worth $385 billion. The rise marks the sharpest one-day rise ever for a member of the index, the outlet reported.

Gen Xers were also born in an in-between era after women entered the workforce and before the advent of helicopter parenting. They fell through the cracks and were often left on their own. That’s a big reason why they have a reputation for being resourceful and independent. They are also known to be a bit cynical and sarcastic, a trait that comes from the economic and social tumult they experienced as children.

There seems to have been a surge of them lately, starting threads about Eug*nia Cooney and Amb*rlynn Reid among their usual homophobia/transphobia.

rescue-chick is one of them.

I honestly believe that Dean Withers and Parker of Parkergetajob are the future of the Democratic party.

FIERCE debaters. I've actually heard them change minds.

And they're hot.

Late iconic diva Donna Summer is back on Billboard’s charts, as “Run,” co-billed with veteran writer-producer Toby Gad, debuts at No. 30 on the Adult Contemporary radio ranking (dated Sept. 13).

The song marks the first appearance on a Billboard airplay chart for Summer, who passed away in 2012, since 2008, when she also hit AC with “Sand on My Feet,” which spent a week at No. 30 on the chart dated that Sept. 20. (Her span between entries, thus, marks a week shy of 17 years.)

Summer strutted to superstar status in the ‘70s, arriving with “Love To Love You Baby,” which reached No. 2 on the Billboard Hot 100 in February 1976. She earned all four of her No. 1s through the end of the decade: “MacArthur Park” (for three weeks in 1978), “Hot Stuff” (three, 1979), “Bad Girls” (five, 1979) and “No More Tears (Enough Is Enough),” her all-star team-up with Barbra Streisand (two, 1979). That song made history as the first No. 1 duet between two women soloists.

Summer upped her career count to 14 Hot 100 top 10s, last reaching the region with “This Time I Know It’s for Real” (No. 7, 1989).

With “Run,” Gad makes his first Billboard chart visit as a billed artist, augmenting a career that includes two Hot 100 No. 1s as a co-writer: Fergie’s “Big Girls Don’t Cry” (for seven weeks in 2007) and John Legend’s “All of Me” (three, 2014). He co-wrote and co-produced two other enduring top 10s: Beyoncé’s “If I Were a Boy” (No. 3, 2008) and Demi Lovato’s “Skyscraper” (No. 10, 2011).

“Run” first began being promoted to AC radio in June, by Kite Records. Originally released as a midtempo track, a new disco-flavored mix arrived today (Sept. 9). Gad and Summer originally worked on the song for her final studio album, 2008’s Crayons, although it ultimately didn’t make the tracklist.

“Donna was funny, such a warm spirit — we instantly connected,” Gad told Billboard following the release of “Run.” “I was a little nervous at first working with such an icon, but Donna opened up to me immediately as I showed her my first ideas. She loved to crack jokes and had such an immediate sense of humor. She enjoyed big hugs and on the first day it felt like she had already decided that I was part of her family.” —Gary Trust

Don’t worry Momala. We on the left, still love you for your life. You were just being loyal.

What if Karen Carpenter hadn't spent her last years singing treacly, upbeat pop songs like "Touch Me When We're Dancin'" and went spooky- lke Alison Moyet, Martha Davis (The Motels) or Johnette Napolitano (Concrete Blonde)?

He-Man is supposed to be a huge gigantic guy like the guy in the middle of the photo. (Dolph was 6’5”). Nicholas should have only played Prince Adam and they should have used a huge guy to play He-Man. This just looks stupid.

Did you like it? It’s so overlooked even though it’s one of her most radio friendly singles. It feels like it was made for radio play it’s so perfect for it.

Directed by: Edward Dmytryk.

Written by: Edward Anhalt, based on the 1948 novel of the same name by Irving Shaw.

Starring: Marlon Brando, Montgomery Clift and Dean Martin. Co-Starring: Hope Lange, Barbara Rush, May Britt, Maximilian Schell, Dora Doll, Lee Van Cleef, Arthur Franz.

Synopsis: "The destiny of three soldiers during World War II. The German officer Christian Diestl approves less and less of the war. Jewish-American Noah Ackerman deals with anti-Semitism at home and in the army while entertainer Michael Whiteacre transforms from playboy to hero."

Normally, I'm not that fond of WWII epic films, but this one caught my attention for having both Brando and Monty in it, even though they don't share a frame together during the whole film.

I wonder if there was some "backstage action" between Brando and Monty.

There are so many now it's hard to keep up.

I didn't include Marcia Gay Harden as she claims to have a gay kid, a non binary kid and a gender fluid kid and I think she's just an attention seeker.

Former Vice President Kamala Harris says it was “recklessness” for Democrats to leave it to President Joe Biden to decide whether to continue seeking another term last year, but she defends his ability to do the job, according to an excerpt of her new book.

Harris, in an excerpt of “107 Days” published Wednesday in The Atlantic, writes that as questions swirled about whether the then-81-year-old Biden should seek reelection, she and others left the decision to him and first lady Jill Biden.

“Was it grace, or was it recklessness? In retrospect, I think it was recklessness,” Harris said.

If a company orders $50 of goods from China and there is a 50% tariff - does China pay $25 to the US or does the company who bought the goods pay the US the $25?

Either way the consumer ends up paying for it.....but who pays the government?

Scott Wolf’s estranged wife, Kelley Wolf, hit up a bar shortly after she was released from the hospital.

Kelley took to Instagram Wednesday to post a photo of her right hand resting on a bar, next to what looked like a margarita. Among the many bracelets on her wrist was an apparent hospital band.

The copy atop the picture read, “Hi,” while the caption read, “God bless 🇺🇸.”

Was there ever a more awesome character/role/performance in movie history?

Who agrees that her part should have been bigger?

Is.it like this in your city? Every profile sas "NO men!I will block you". Get the fuck off Grindr then and why does Grindr allow this on the first place? You get blocked if you say no trans for instance

And certainly more than his girlfriend.

This could be bad! Very bad.

Why are they giving this cunt more attention?

I have no idea who this chick is. Will I listen to her music or follow her career? Probably not. Do I like the song, "Revolving Door?" Meh.. It's basically the Pussy Cat Dolls's "Buttons." But I do know her name now. And I commend her for the sheer bravery it takes to pull off a performance like this that could have been career ending (especially in this day and age) if one thing had gone wrong. If nothing else, this took a lot of hard work and guts to accomplish and I appreciate the pure spectacle of it all.

VMA performances serve two purposes. Either they launch an already established star into the entertainment stratosphere - like Madonna's Marie Antoinette "Vogue" Performance or Britney's snake charmer "Slave 4 U." Or they serve to announce and "Unknown" to the world - like Alanis Morrisettes' "You Outta Know." This was Tate McRae's announcement to the world. Good on her for understanding what needed to be done and putting in the work.

The perfect man!

How you doing?

Speaker Johnson casually mentioned that Trump was an FBI informant on Epstein. Odd. Slip of the tongue? TPM’s Josh Marshall thinks not.

He thinks part of what has been hidden in the unreleased files is Trump’s role in the first federal indictment of Epstein. The one that resulted in a sweetheart deal from US Attorney Alex Acosta. He thinks MAGA leadership knows that Trump’s being the informant is going to come out and they are laying the groundwork to present Trump as a hero, not a rat. But as Marshall points out, you can’t inform on something you don’t know about.

Michael Wolff’s Epstein interviews suggest that after Trump went behind Epstein’s back to purchase a Palm Brach mansion Epstein planned to buy, Epstein threatened to reveal that the purchase was part of a Russian oligarch’s money laundering scheme, and Trump went to the FBI on Epstein’s sex trafficking.

Stay tuned.

Songbird: An Intimate Biography of Christine McVie reveals the bombshell

Stevie, 76, reportedly bedded The Beach Boys co-founder Dennis Wilson

Stevie Nicks slept with her best friend and fellow Fleetwood Mac band mate Christine McVie's fiancé Dennis Wilson, according to the late singer's explosive new biography.

Songbird: An Intimate Biography of Christine McVie, which is due for release on November 19, makes damning claims that the Edge of Seventeen songstress, 76, had relations with The Beach Boys co-founder Dennis while he was dating Christine.

And this pretentious queen is supposed to be some financial wunderkind?? No wonder he wound up working for Trump.

He's gotten rejected no doubt numerous times by hot tops.

I started another thread about him being rejected by someone he had a date with. He mentioned having spent $50 on Uber fare to meet that person. I have no doubt he was willing to spend all of that money because he was looking for his TOP in Shining Armor.

Episodes will also be available for streaming on Hulu and Disney+ after they air on Freeform.

Apart from the films in the poll which I mostly cribbed from Awards Daily, the following films appear to be in consideration:

After The Hunt, Luca Guadagnino

I got nothing but healthful foods at the store. Vegetables, high antioxidant fruits, salmon, lentils, brown rice, eggs (for egg whites only), etc. I’m making all of my meals at home. I’m eating nothing processed.

I lost 3.5 lbs!

Then last night, I ate a Big Mac.

It tasted AMAZING, however, I felt physically grossed out afterwards.

Not only Gizzlane a pimp, she was a filthy scrapbooker too

I searched using a few key words. This was bold. I wonder if they bothered you tell the State Department first.

[QUOTE]Israel carried out an attack targeting Hamas leadership in Qatar on Tuesday, the Prime Minister’s Office said, in what appeared to be the first known Israeli military strike against the militant group in the Gulf nation.

[QUOTE]A senior Israeli official told CNN that among those targeted was Hamas’ chief negotiator Khalil Al-Hayya. “We are awaiting the results of the strike,” the official said.

In-ter-es-ting!

Democrat James Walkinshaw will win a special election in Virginia’s 11th Congressional District, CNN’s Decision Desk projects, bolstering Democratic numbers in the House and cutting down on an already slim Republican majority.

With Tuesday’s results, House Speaker Mike Johnson will now only be able to afford to lose two Republicans on party-line votes as opposed to three.

The election in the 11th Congressional District is being held to fill longtime Democratic Rep. Gerry Connolly’s seat. Connolly died from cancer in May.

Walkinshaw, Connolly’s former chief of staff and a Fairfax County supervisor, was heavily favored. Walkinshaw faced Republican Stewart Whitson, a military veteran and former FBI special agent currently working as a lobbyist.

The arrival of those Democrats could mean a timely advantage for House members looking to force a vote to release the Jeffrey Epstein files. The bipartisan discharge petition led by Republican Rep. Thomas Massie and Democratic Rep. Ro Khanna needs 218 signatures to move forward, and the congressmen maintain they have 216 votes so far without Walkinshaw and the likely Democratic Arizona member joining the chamber this month.

for some reason, I find this hot...

Where these hos been at? Can you believe they notoriously beat Kendrick for Best New Artist at the Grammys.

Though I do respect their point of view, they were sorta like a woke Vanilla Ice.

Guillermo Del Toro’s adaptation of Frankenstein looks INCREDIBLE. Omg. I remember when this was announced and I rolled my eyes but this actually looks good. I got excited for this one after seeing this trailer.

I can’t wait for this.

I checked search. Anyway, another cute straight guy. He doesn't appear to be gaybaiting like others OR it's not as obvious.

I buy nothing but delicious foods at the store. Brillat-Savarin cheese, pâté en croûte, Château d’Yquem sauternes, Kobe ribeye, Sacher-Tortes, Pierre Hermé éclairs, Kouign-Amann. I'm eating out or ordering in at home. I'm eating nothing processed.

I've lost 3.5 lbs!

So last week, I ate fast food 5 times. It tasted delicious, and I felt physically fine afterwards. However, I've lost another pound.

Former Vice President Mike Pence has joined the sea of Republicans calling on the Trump administration to release the Epstein files.

"I think the time has come for the administration to release all of the files regarding Jeffrey Epstein's investigation and prosecution," Pence told CBS News on Wednesday. "It's important that we protect the names of the victims. They should be excluded from any disclosure."

“I think that anyone who participated or was associated with this despicable man ought to be held up to public scrutiny,” he continued. "I just think we ought to get the facts to the American people, and I've always believed in transparency.”

That body, that face, those eyelashes…

I can’t think of a hotter out actor…

Who would you say is hotter?

Oh, I’m excited.

Premiering at the Toronto International Film Festival, Canceled: The Paula Deen Story knows that it’s tackling not just the former TV host’s faux pas but a larger reckoning that falls somewhere between Confederate monuments and contempt around pronouns in terms of controversy-bait.

It’s still interested in Deen’s story, giving Paula and her sons, Bobby and Jamie, plenty of screen time to talk about their hardscrabble roots, their mom’s once-chronic anxiety attacks, the fraught atmosphere when her husband drank, the early successes.

Gordon Elliott, the former-journalist-turned-producer who helped shepherd Deen into the spotlight, and Deen proceeded to unleash a camera-ready charm offensive. New York beckoned. Fame was inevitable. There will be butter.

Hong Kong's government proposed legislation this summer to recognise some rights for same-sex partners, but only for those whose unions are registered abroad.

Despite LGBTQ activists decrying its limitations, the proposal drew near-universal criticism from the pro-Beijing politicians that dominate Hong Kong's legislature.

Only around a dozen lawmakers within the 89-member council have publicly declared their support so far.

Don’t know how to play this game but I’m willing to learn but people with the word “red” in their name can rarely be taught !!! I see from a distance it’s sacred. Some respect it, some destroy it. Most enjoy the intense range of intelligence in it … Some like it done in silence … Some like how loud the silence gets … Some are just bored. Some like me have never tried and honestly don’t care to !!! But why do my eyes feel like I go to another world when I see the game ??? Is it because people care ???

Last weekend, my friends and I were discussing weird game shows. I described one, and no one else remembered it. In fact, the final assessment was I was making it up or I have become insane. Someone come to my defense.

What I remember...

1. It was a BBC production airing on BBC America

2. Four people were vying for 50,000 pounds or whatever

3. A group of random people were to decide which person would get the money.

4. Round one, the "judges" decided who would be excused based just on looks

5. The second round, a video of each remaining contestant was shown and another was voted off

6. The third round, the judges were allowed to ask questions of the remaining contestants and then decide between the two

7. The host was a brown haired woman named Fern. I think.

The joke of the show was occasionally, they would kick off a young person who was there to help pay for chemotherapy for her mother because she looked too sexy, and then the winner would admit they were there for a late-in-life trip to Ibiza to get laid.

I have tried searching to no avail. Anyone else remember, or am I actually crazy?

I watched Death Becomes Her for the first time last night. Such a fun film to watch in anticipation for autumn and Halloween.

The leading foursome are great; Meryl Streep, Goldie Hawn, Bruce Willis, and Isabella Rossellini.

Which one do you prefer, and why?

Ezra Klein gives Democrats the rationale for allowing a government shutdown.

“I want to be very clear about what I am saying here. Donald Trump is corrupting the government — he is using it to hound his enemies, to line his pockets and to entrench his own power. He is corrupting it the way the Mafia would corrupt the industries it controlled. You could still, under Mafia rule, get the trash picked up or buy construction materials. But the point of those industries had become the preservation and expansion of the Mafia’s power and wealth.”

“This is what Trump is doing to the government. This is what Democrats cannot fund. This is what they have to try to stop.”

Facing growing political pressure, Texas A&M University President Mark A. Welsh III announced Monday evening that the dean and department head overseeing a children’s literature course at the center of a viral recording were going to be removed, saying they approved plans to teach material inconsistent with the published course description.

The announcement came after a video circulated online Monday showing a student confronting a professor over LGBTQ-related content in the class, sparking backlash from Republican lawmakers and calls for investigations, a response from the U.S. Department of Justice, and a statement from the Texas A&M System chancellor pledging to discipline the professor.

“Our students use the published information in the course catalog to make important decisions about the courses they take in pursuit of their degrees,” Welsh said in a statement posted to X, formerly known as Twitter, late Monday. “If we allow different course content to be taught from what is advertised, we let our students down. When it comes to our academic offerings, we must keep our word to our students and to the state of Texas."

It was not immediately clear Monday whether the College of Arts and Sciences dean or department head will remain employed at the university in other roles.

He predicts that MAGA will vanish like a fart in the wind, and everyone will instantly say they never liked him and never met him.

But he also predicts that the shady business dealings, pardons for cash, and cooked books will come into view - I'm not sure how. If you ask me, the MAGA cult would rather burn records than show them to the world. He predicts Trump's law enforcement goons (Bondi, Patel, Bongino, etc.) will end up going to jail for knowingly breaking so many laws for Trump.

And America will finally realize how deeply they've been scammed by this mafia don and his endless greed. People will piss on his grave.

I doubt that last part.

Anyone else like this movie? It stars James Woods (this was years before he went batshit, no need to point it out) and Debbie Harry.

I hadn’t seen it in years before tonight, and it holds up beautifully. It’s a very good “horror” film that is saying something more. It also is creative and still feels different than most films in the genre. It has a great screenplay and script, and does a terrific job at building a strong, dark atmosphere.

Also, James Woods ass looked hot in this and Debbie Harry looked beautiful. She was a huge rock star! Why did Madonna act like she was unique for being a pop star who showed tits? Debbie did it first.

And those cheerleaders are looking at her like they're gonna knife her right after she finishes talking.

Saturday Night Live head Lorne Michaels has confirmed that SNL cast members will exit the show ahead of the upcoming season 51 premiere on NBC.

After no notable cast departures were revealed following the show's landmark season 50 finale, the 80-year-old TV legend announced in a new interview that the roster will get a big shakeup as season 51 looms.

"Yes," Michaels told Puck when asked if he's "going to shake things up" with a new cast.

He recalled being at a party for the season 50 premiere, during which he remembered Dana Carvey approaching him and saying, "I don't think anyone knows you called me June 4 [to play Joe Biden]."

That made him realize he "wanted people coming back and being part of [the 50th season]," as it marked such a monumental moment for the long-running sketch comedy show.

"So, when Kate [McKinnon] hosted, Kristen [Wiig] and Maya [Rudolph] came back for it. And that meant there couldn’t be those kind of disruptions [to the cast], or anything that was going to take the focus off [the 50th season]," Michaels continued. "And we had an election."

The outlet pressed Michaels on feeling "pressure to reinvent this season" ahead, to which he replied, "Yeah, for sure. It’ll be announced in a week or so."

He additionally confirmed that the show will again rely on actor James Austin Johnson to play Donald Trump for the foreseeable future.

Entertainment Weekly has reached out to SNL representatives for comment.

Is Roberts being blackmailed over his boyfriend? Does that explain the fascism? Many people are saying that.

He had been a “confirmed bachelor” for 40 years until he met his future wife on a gay beach. Since their children were adopted there is no evidence that the marriage was ever consummated. He has, however, received millions of dollars in payoffs through her employment as a head hunter for many of America’s largest law firms.

Now, a former colleague of Mrs. Roberts has raised concerns that her recruiting work poses potential ethics issues for the chief justice. Seeking an inquiry, the ex-colleague has provided records to the Justice Department and Congress indicating Mrs. Roberts has been paid millions of dollars in commissions for placing lawyers at firms — some of which have business before the Supreme Court, according to a letter obtained by The New York Times.

Am I the only one who thinks he has gayface?

For the second time in as many months, Tucker Carlson is deeply dissecting the faggotry of a political figure. Last time, it was Nick Fuentes, the right-wing boy with the flat ass. Now he says Pete Buttigieg is actually straight, but faking the faggotry for ratings and donations. He keeps claiming to get these insights from his gay producer, who no one ever sees. That queen has flawless gaydar, and passes instant judgment on who's a true banana-crammer.

Why does Tucker care so deeply about who's really a gay? How low will he go to prove it?

Shoutout to the Bernie-suckers over at HuffPost for deliberately picking the ugliest possible picture of Our Peter alongside a pic of Carlson before his latest trainwreck eyejob.

A Crook County man facing multiple sex abuse and rape changes was recently sentenced to 25 years in prison.

According to Crook County District Attorney Kari Hathorn, 28-year-old Joshua Lee Quattlebum was sentenced by Circuit Court Judge Daina Vitolins during a hearing at the Crook County Courthouse on Aug. 25. The sentence included no eligibility for any form of early release from custody, a provision for 10 years of post-prison supervision and registration as a sex offender. The sentence was the result of a trial in which the jury returned a guilty verdict on Aug. 22.

The jury found Quattlebum had committed two counts of first-degree rape, first degree sodomy, first-degree unlawful sexual abuse, two counts of second-degree unlawful sexual abuse, endangering the welfare of a minor, harassment and disorderly conduct. The case was investigated by the Prineville Police Department, with Officer Hunter Trueax, Officer Daniel Yanes and Detective Sergeant Jonathan Adkins leading the investigation, interviewing multiple witnesses, obtaining physical evidence and arresting Quattlebum. The victim in this case is an adult and known to Quattlebum. The defendant was convicted of forcing the adult victim to engage in sexual conduct during multiple separate incidents in April and May 2023. During the sentencing, the court found upward enhancement factors including deliberate cruelty to the victim, the offense including actual violence and Quattlebum’s involvement in prior similar offenses, as well as lack of remorse on several counts. In 2015, Quattlebum was convicted of first-degree attempted sodomy and first-degree sex abuse for assaulting two different victims under the age of 14.

The State of Oregon was represented by Chief Deputy District Attorney Laura Moszer. Vitolins presided over the case.

“The Crook County District Attorney’s Office is appreciative of the outstanding efforts of our community partners in achieving a successful prosecution of this case,” Hathorn said.

It is not the freshest news but it's worthy mentioning as it was silenced by blogs. Kinda bisexual (loved to stick glass dildo in his hole) Jeb was portrayed as charming and beautiful jock but irl he is vile piece of shit.

How many times do you think Mike Johnson rehearsed that line in the mirror before making this speech?

Fucking idiot.

[quote]The Trump administration will move to pull the COVID vaccine off the U.S. market “within months,” one of Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s closest associates has told the Daily Beast.

[quote]Dr. Aseem Malhotra, a British cardiologist who has repeatedly claimed in the face of scientific consensus that the vaccines are more dangerous than the virus, told the Daily Beast that Kennedy’s stance is shared by “influential” members of President Donald Trump’s family. Like Kennedy himself, no Trumps hold any scientific qualifications.

[quote]He told the Beast that many of those closest to RFK Jr. have told him they “cannot understand” why the vaccine continues to be prescribed, and that a decision to remove the vaccine from the U.S. market pending further research will come “within months,” even if it is likely to cause “fear of chaos” and bring with it major legal ramifications.

[quote]Malhotra said skepticism among Kennedy’s circle of the COVID-19 jab is driven by a 2022 paper by a group of physicians and university professors and researchers, which appeared in the journal Vaccine.

[quote]However, the study has been dismissed by large parts of the medical community, who say it underestimates the benefits of COVID-19 vaccines and overstates risks due to methodological flaws, biased data selection, and ignoring broader public health impacts.

[quote]The prediction of a drastic move against the COVID vaccine comes after Kennedy canceled $500 million in funding for the development of mRNA vaccines.

[quote]Days after canceling the funding, the HHS secretary—criticized for describing the COVID shot as “the deadliest vaccine ever made”—stated during a press conference his belief that the mRNA COVID-19 vaccine was dangerous and can cause “injuries” including myocarditis, an inflammation of the heart that can lead to health issues ranging from fatigue to cardiac arrest.

[quote]At the same time the scientifically unqualified Kennedy scion wrongly claimed there is no evidence football leads to brain damage.

[quote]Vaccine skepticism took a sinister turn earlier this month when an anti-vaxxer opened fire on the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), killing a police officer. Investigators believe the man targeted the CDC over his hatred of the COVID-19 vaccine, apparently convinced he was sick—or would become sick—because of it.

[quote]On Wednesday, more than 750 current and former staff members from the CDC, HHS and National Institutes of Health (NIH) accused Kennedy of spreading dangerous misinformation that fueled mistrust and contributed to the CDC HQ shooting, demanding by Sept. 2 that he stop, affirm CDC scientific integrity, and guarantee workforce safety.

I heard about this a week ago and hoped it was an unfounded rumor. For at least a week, CVS hasn't allowed you to schedule an appointment for existing COVID vaccines, the scheduling page says: "We are expecting an updated COVID vaccine for the 2025-2026 season to be approved in the coming days. Appointments will be available for the updated vaccine as soon as it is approved. Please check back here for the latest update."

Any thoughts on her new album of covers?

Love them? Hate them?

The other thread about Audrey Hepburn, Shirley Jones, and My Fair Lady got me thinking…

What would be a gay version of My Fair Lady? How would that work?

Instead of Eliza, you have Elio. He is a very femme, flamboyant aspiring actor, obviously gay. Played by Timothee Chalomet.

Kevin Spacey plays Henry Higgins.. Elio desperately wants to be a leading man in Hollywood, but they won’t take him because he can’t act straight.

Kevin Spacey teaches him to act straight. When they go to a Hollywood party, Elio is passed off as a womanizer and gets a reputation for fucking many women and being a real pussy pounder!

Perhaps the character of Freddy is gender swapped and it’s a girl who falls head over heels with Elio.

Thoughts? Want to build on this?

Have you ever tried this??

I never did until recently. It’s really good!

It’s made based on a. Biblical phase that lists whole grains like wheat, barley, etc. That gives it a craggly texture.

Good to know!

Ok, this has become such a thing that even I’ve heard of it. What is the big deal about this? It’s filled with pistachios?

Is it made in that awful place?

This moron is going to be real disappointed come April 15, 2026.

Well, when you think about it, Trump did say, “I love the poorly educated.”

As someone who is completely burned out by the idiocracy of the Trump regime and all of its related insanity, I have begun to wonder if the Gen Z Stare is actually a proper sanity saving response in the face of rampant ignorance and trolling. Has anyone tried it? If so, was it effective?

Not the most popular, most likable, most centered candidate. Not one who checks the most boxes. Not one who is hard left but plays sports and works on cars in their garage. And there is no such thing as the blue wall anymore, they’re just swing states.

Doesn’t have to be a white male as we’ve seen them losing to other white men consecutive times in a row. We need someone who can win the demographics that were always safe in swing states. That is bringing young apolitical people back to the party. Brining black and Latino men back to the party. That is appealing to non educated Gen X white women. Bring back constituencies that always favored the democratic candidate in national elections. The “independent” voter— center right mid-upper middle class white men who swing from Republican to Democrat in elections—Kamala won them.

Someone clearly watched Ripley last year and got inspired.

I've been in an incredibly nostalgic mood of late. I know so much of DL has scattered to the four winds, and been consumed by trolls and bots, but what the hell. We haven't had a DL-style Q&A call-and-response for a while. And yes, I. know I need to get a blog.

1/ I’ve decided that queer nightlife has denominations. Stay with me, because it’s church, kids. ⛪️✨

2/ Horse Meat Disco → Westminster Abbey. Grand, historic, full of ceremony. You walk in and immediately think: this is sacred space. Even the sweat feels consecrated.

3/ The Eagle → a cathedral crypt. Dim, leather-scented, filled with centuries of whispered prayers (and a few very loud moans). Faith is tactile here.

4/ Atlantis cruises → St. Peter’s Basilica on Easter. Opulent, overwhelming, the collective gathered in one roaring hymn of shirtless men and laser lights.

5/ Me? I’m not Martin Luther nailing a manifesto to the bathroom stall door. I’m just a pilgrim who found belonging in unlikely chapels.

6/ Which sect am I? Depends on the night, but the creed is the same: joy is sacred, chosen family is communion, and the dance floor is an altar. 🌈🪩

7/ And yes, the ushers still judge your outfit—because salvation may be free, but harnesses are not.

I am not a fan of Gladwell’s, but I do empathise with him. Yes, he was dishonest but at a time when people faced losing friends and work, I understand why he was not forthcoming.

Of the people who did politely or impolitely support women I sport, most had a lifetime of contrarian publicity behind them, like Germaine Greer and Richard Dawkins, or were too big to cancel by virtue of being The Best Selling Writer In The Entire World. And even Rowling received daily death and rape threats.

I have what I believe is a fairly popular view on the subject - trans folks and persons with Differences Of Sex Development do require special protections and encouragement in sports and so do, separately, bio women. But I would never say so in public or even amongst friendly acquaintances at a dinner. And certainly not at work, which would be inappropriate anyway.

By the way, the podcast he was interviewed on, The Real Science Of Sport, is run by a journalist and a sports scientist and I highly recommend it.

She did her own singing in the Broadway show. Why wasn’t her singing sufficient for the movie.

And since they dubbed her, why didn’t they just put “Bali Hai” in a soprano range? Bali Hai could’ve been the dramatic “Climb Ev’ry Mountain” of South Pacific if it had been performed in a higher, dramatic, operatic range. But while it’s perhaps the signature motif of South Pacific, the actual number is rather underwhelming.

Ive loved this movie since before I can remember. Id hold my tape deck to the tv and record the songs. As a gay man, Charming Carr, liesel, was my first crush. My question is, Why didn't their carriers do better from this ginormous monster hit? I know the eldest boy, Nicholas Hammond was Spiderman in the 70s but that was 10 years later and hardly a gig given to him from the heat of TSOM. Angela Cartwright, Brigitta, continued her tv work and has a solid C.V. but not moviel stardom or teen idol fame. Elder gays, did they do major P.R. at the time with the kids? Were they in the fan mags, on TV? Were they like The Beatles, for 15 minutes? I'd love to know.

It won't be the same without Maggie Smith

Did anyone else like this forgotten horror film? Before The Amityville Horror there was this one, and it’s genuinely a lot creepier. I saw this as a child and still find the chauffeur creepy as fuck.

Bette Davis hated Oliver Reed and trashed him after making the film and she didn’t get along with Karen Black either and got into many arguments with her while filming. La Davis was a lot to deal with, I assume.

Apparently Hanks actively supports WW2 vets, including being instrumental in pushing for the memorial in DC. The award is canceled because he actively supported Biden.

“Hanks, 69, was to receive the prestigious Sylvanus Thayer Award, which recognizes an “outstanding citizen” who did not attend West Point and has a distinguished record of service that exemplifies the academy’s ideals: “Duty, Honor, Country.” A ceremony and parade were scheduled for Sept. 25”

The decision marks a dramatic shift from June, when the association announced Hanks as its 2025 Thayer recipient. The alumni group cited his work acting in several movies portraying U.S. service members, including “Saving Private Ryan,” “Forrest Gump” and “Greyhound.” It also credited his producing of “Band of Brothers” and “The Pacific,” both World War II-themed miniseries, and his extensive advocacy for veterans. Hanks, the announcement noted, was a leading proponent for creation of the World War II Memorial in D.C.; supported efforts to build a national memorial for President Dwight D. Eisenhower, a celebrated Army general before entering politics; and served as national chairman for a massive fundraising campaign to establish what is now the National WWII Museum in New Orleans. “Tom Hanks has done more for the positive portrayal of the American service member, more for the caring of the American veteran, their caregivers and their family, and more for the American space program and all branches of government than many other Americans,” Robert McDonald, a former secretary of veterans affairs and the alumni association’s board chairman, said in the June announcement.“

"The US Supreme Court on Monday lifted an order preventing government agents from carrying out roving patrols to detain migrants in California, upholding at least for now a practice critics say amounts to racial profiling."

The Earl of Devon and his former Baywatch actress wife are to divorce, three years after she described the shock of seeing her “hippie, feminist husband” transform into a “patriarchal” aristocrat.

Allison Joy “AJ” Langer, married barrister Charles Courtenay in 2005 after meeting him in Las Vegas, where he was on a rugby tour.

They set up home in California but moved into Powderham Castle near Exeter when Courtenay’s father, the 18th Earl of Devon, died in 2015.

Langer, who appeared in the second series of Baywatch and also starred in the US drama My So-Called Life, became the Countess of Devon and found her move to Britain to be a culture shock.

“I may have underestimated the realities for myself. It was the same for my husband, who had been my hippie, feminist husband in California for 10 years,” she said.

“I was like, ‘where did my hippie, feminist husband go?’ And all of a sudden these patriarchal things start coming out of his mouth. I’m like, ‘who are you? Where’s my Charlie?’ So it’s a lot of recalibrating.”

The couple moved to Britain with their two children, Joscelyn, now aged 16, and Jack, 14. They announced their separation this week, saying in a statement: “After much care and consideration, Charles Courtenay, the Earl of Devon, and Countess of Devon, Allison Joy Courtenay, have made the decision to separate and to divorce.

“Charlie would like to express his gratitude for his partnership with AJ and all that they have created together as parents, friends and partners both in Los Angeles and at Powderham.”

Speaking on the podcast Celebrity Catch Up: Life After That Thing I Did in 2020, the Countess said she treated the relocation – on a friend’s advice – “like an anthropological study of the culture”.

Her father-in-law’s funeral was the first shock. “It was like The Godfather, it was extraordinary,” she recalled. “It was 800 people coming into the castle, and all lined up just to shake [the new Earl’s] hand.

“I’d learnt a lot over the 12 years that we’d been together, but I think I’d underestimated the step… here I was in the middle of a really intense, very, very deep-rooted patriarchy. And so it’s been really fascinating.”

The Countess treasured the family’s “amazing” time in California, adding that it was “great for Charlie as well, who grew up in this [castle] architecture, to have some time surfing”.

But she threw herself into her new role while focusing on getting the children settled in their new home.

“Acting really wasn’t on the table because we’re three hours out of London and my kids needed community and connection, and this was so much to take on that you couldn’t really do it halfway.

“And I’m the kind of person that takes whatever’s in front of me and does my best with it,” she said. The couple opened the castle’s grounds for rock and pop concerts, and allowed visitors to the main house to bring their dogs.

They also welcomed gay marriages. The 18th Earl caused a storm in 2008 when he refused a request to host a ceremony for two men, saying it was “objectionable” to his Christian religion. Devon County Council revoked Powderham’s licence for hosting ceremonies, losing the family up to £200,000 a year in revenue.

This was regarded as ironic by some observers, as the 9th Earl was gay. The Countess said that she and her husband had adopted a more modern approach.

“There was a past history of blatantly covering up our gay ancestors here, and we’ve had the gift of being able to take off the label of ‘flamboyant’. We have some gay relatives at Powderham that were amazing characters with really interesting stories.

“And we’ve been able to open that up and be a really welcoming space for same sex marriages.

“You know, the countryside is actually very gay.”

What a depressing film.

What was the point of the chauffeur?

Oliver Reed was a sexy daddy though.

One of the wackiest stories I’ve ever read about a crazy woman trying everything to punish her surrogate because of a stillborn fetus.

President Trump is exploring ways to take federal control of the 9/11 Memorial & Museum, according to two White House officials, amid criticism from some Sept. 11 victims’ families over the site’s finances and leadership.

The museum’s leadership rebuffed the idea. “At a time when the federal government is working to cut costs, assuming the full operating expenses for the site makes no sense,” Beth Hillman, the president and chief executive, said in a statement.

For years, some of the families of victims have loudly criticized the 9/11 Memorial & Museum, complaining about high ticket prices and large salaries for the leaders. They have also questioned where the unidentified remains of some of those killed in the attacks should be kept. Mr. Trump has met with some of those families and has expressed sympathy for their concerns, according to people familiar with the conversations.

Mr. Trump is not expected to attend the ceremony at Ground Zero next week to commemorate the anniversary of the Sept. 11 attacks, the people said. He will attend a ceremony at the Pentagon and then travel to New York later that day to attend a Yankees game.

Her brief renown came too early to be remembered & appreciated by DLers.

From her 1996 NYT obituary:

[quote] Sloan Simpson, the beautiful young fashion model who married New York's handsome postwar Mayor, William O'Dwyer, divorced him after his term as Ambassador to Mexico and then became a darling of the jet set as the ruler of Acapulco society, died yesterday at her home in Dallas. She was 80.

[quote] Friends said the cause was lung cancer, a disease that had previously cost her a lung but not her devotion to cigarettes.

[quote] If ever there was a match made in tabloid heaven, it was surely the one between the former policeman, who had succeeded Fiorello H. La Guardia as Mayor of New York in 1946, and the well-bred Texas charmer who had come to the city as one of the 'long-stemmed beauties' of the John Powers modeling agency.

[quote] Miss Simpson, who had a brief early marriage that ended in divorce, was described by friends as a renegade Catholic. But the Mayor, who had studied for the priesthood in Spain, was too serious about his religion -- and too dependent on Roman Catholic voters -- to marry a divorced woman, and when Miss Simpson obtained an annulment, his friends knew something was up.

[quote] Even so, it was not until the Mayor had successfully won a second term in 1949 that the couple were married.

[quote] After the marriage, the new Mrs. O'Dwyer proceeded to supervise the first major decoration of Gracie Mansion.

[quote] Less than a year later, as mounting corruption investigations seemed to be closing in on the Mayor, he abruptly resigned and gratefully accepted appointment by President Truman as Ambassador to Mexico.

[quote] In Mexico City, the Ambassador and his wife won immense popularity, but strains soon appeared in the marriage, the result, Miss Simpson later said, of her husband's intense jealousy.

[quote] Whatever the cause, after the O'Dwyer stint as Ambassador ended with the Republican Presidential victory in 1952, Miss Simpson obtained a civil divorce in Mexico in 1953, then went off on a well-publicized sojourn to Spain, where she was photographed fighting bulls, repeatedly denied any other romantic interests and loyally insisted on her former husband's honesty. He died in 1964. ...

[quote] Miss Simpson, who told friends she would never marry unless she found a man with wealth and a title, had her share of titled suitors and romances with wealthy men, but never found one with both qualifications.

The Trump administration said it will drop a Biden-era plan to require airlines to compensate passengers and cover their expenses for lengthy delays or cancellations caused by carriers, a setback for aviation consumer protections.

The proposed federal rule, which the Biden administration announced in 2023, would guarantee passengers $200 to $775 in compensation as well as free meals, lodging and rebookings in cases where U.S. flight disruptions were caused by circumstances under airlines’ control, such as a mechanical issue or a system outage.

The proposal was opened for public comment last year, though there was no timeline for it to take effect. President Joseph R. Biden Jr. and Pete Buttigieg, his transportation secretary, promoted it as a game changer for travelers.

“When an airline causes a flight cancellation or delay, passengers should not foot the bill,” Mr. Buttigieg said in May 2023.

A Brazilian billionaire has named football star Neymar as the sole heir to his estate, an unusual inheritance that could be worth roughly US$846 million to US$1 billion and is now before the courts for confirmation.

The will, filed at a notary’s office in Porto Alegre, Brazil, and authenticated on June 12 with two witnesses and a substitute notary present, reportedly leaves “all his worldly possessions” to Neymar.

Media accounts said the deceased, a childless man from Rio Grande do Sul, had never met the player and that he “identifies with [Neymar] on a personal level.” One passage quoted in reports reads: “I like Neymar, I identify with him a lot. He’s not self-serving, something rare these days.”

"Defend the Homeland. Join ICE today!"

Murderers, rapists, terrorists, and child pedophiles—ICE is recruiting patriotic, brave Americans to remove these criminal illegal aliens from America’s streets

WASHINGTON – The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) today launched a new U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) campaign to recruit brave and heroic Americans to join ICE as federal law enforcement agents and remove the worst of the worst criminal illegal aliens from America’s streets.

“Your country is calling you to serve at ICE. In the wake of the Biden administration’s failed immigration policies, your country needs dedicated men and women of ICE to get the worst of the worst criminals out of our country,” said Secretary Kristi Noem. “This is a defining moment in our nation’s history. Your skills, your experience, and your courage have never been more essential. Together, we must defend the homeland.”

Trump still has broad approval on several issues, especially how he’s handling Israel and Hamas. Israel retains major support from Americans. Hamas is widely hated and blamed for everything happening in Gaza including famine, as they should be. Esptein remains weirdly important for Americans. Economy is largely approved of though it’s definitely Trump’s weakest area, though people trust him much more than Biden or Democrats on the issue. Immigration remains a top issue and people largely approve of how it’s going, while not always approving of the methods used. Weirdly, a lot of people haven’t heard about Trump’s use of National Guard in DC (only 7 in 20 know about it,) but those that do know about it say it’s appropriate given that America’s major cities are lawless hellholes (not my opinion, I live in the center of one.)

Dems are going to have a hard time attacking Trump and his policies given they are distracted by Israel, a deeply unpopular issue for them that they immediately need to get off of, and that they are fighting over at a current DNC meeting. Really, it seems like his only weakness in the public’s eye is the economy, and Dems aren’t trusted there.

The Serpent Queen was cancelled abruptly by Starz after Season 2 ended last year, despite overwhelmingly good reviews from the critics and a loyal fan base, which was apparently not large enough for Starz to continue the series. Ironically, in recent advertisements by Starz on FB, the show is featured to promote signing up for their streaming service, which is why this is fresh on my mind.

Samantha Morton's Catherine de Medici was captivating. I had already bought a shelf full of books on Catherine and French history to read while waiting for Season 3, before the show was cancelled.

The one consolation is that Starz signed up Minnie Driver to reprise her unusual take on Elizabeth I in TSQ, in a spin-off series tentatively titled The Virgin Queen.

What a gorgeous and talented man!

The alumni association at the U.S. Military Academy at West Point has canceled an award ceremony for actor and veterans advocate Tom Hanks, after several political controversies involving the Trump administration shook the institution this year.

Retired Army Col. Mark Bieger, president and chief executive officer of the West Point Association of Graduates, disclosed the decision in an email to faculty circulated Friday.

Hanks, 69, was to receive the prestigious Sylvanus Thayer Award, which recognizes an “outstanding citizen” who did not attend West Point and has a distinguished record of service that exemplifies the academy’s ideals: “Duty, Honor, Country.” A ceremony and parade were scheduled for Sept. 25.

Afterwards, he seems unrestrained again.

It suggests to me that he found someone else to pick up the tab.

The mushroom mystery gripping Australia began to become clearer on Monday, with a mother saying she accidentally put lethal fungi in a beef Wellington dish now linked to three deaths.

Rumours are swirling around a close-knit community in rural Australia after the family lunch ended with three people dead and a local clergyman fighting for his life.

Police believe the dish was tainted with death cap mushrooms, which grow wild in the foothills around Leongatha, a small town about two hours’ drive south-east of Melbourne.

The meal was cooked by Erin Patterson, a community newsletter editor, who has been named as a suspect because she appeared to remain in good health despite her four guests falling violently ill.

The investigation has fuelled intense speculation as police try to separate clumsy cooking from an alleged act of malice.

Ms Patterson stressed on Monday she had unwittingly bought the mushrooms from an Asian grocery store and that the poisonings were accidental.

“I am now devastated to think that these mushrooms may have contributed to the illness suffered by my loved ones,” she reportedly said in a statement provided to Australian media.

“I really want to repeat that I had absolutely no reason to hurt these people whom I loved.”

Ms Patterson prepared the beef Wellington for her estranged parents-in-law Don and Gail Patterson on the afternoon of Saturday July 29.

She is married to Don and Gail’s son Simon but they have been living separately for some time.

Ms Patterson’s sister Heather, and her husband, Ian Wilkinson, a local baptist pastor, rounded out the guest list.

Later that night, the two couples started experiencing food poisoning symptoms and went to their local hospitals.

Heather and Gail died the following Friday, with Don dying a day later. Mr Wilkinson, 70, is still in hospital. He is in a critical but stable condition.

“We are hopeful and continue to pray for his recovery,” Mr Wilkinson’s family said in a statement over the weekend.

“We are deeply moved by the outpouring of kindness, prayers, and support from family, friends and the broader community.”

Forensic experts have been testing a food dehydrator that was found at a rubbish dump nearby to see whether it contains traces of the toxic death cap mushrooms.

According to Australian media, Ms Patterson has admitted dumping the dehydrator, saying she panicked and was worried about losing custody of her two children.

She reportedly said she bought the mushrooms from a local grocery store in Melbourne and that she too had fallen ill after eating them alongside her guests.

Ms Patterson has forcefully protested her innocence, tearfully telling reporters last week: “I didn’t do anything, I love them and I’m devastated they are gone.”

She has not been charged and police have provided no evidence of wrongdoing.

Death cap mushrooms sprout freely throughout wet, warm parts of Australia and are easily mistaken for edible varieties.

They reportedly taste sweeter than other types of mushrooms but contain potent toxins that slowly poison the liver and kidneys.

Do you like a film so much that you download it and keep it stored on your PC (desktop or laptop) to watch them whenever you want?

In my case, these are the films I have stored on my laptop:

-Unfaithful (2002)

-Femme Fatale (2002)

-Strange Days (1995): I always like to watch it on Friday nights, since the film is set up on Dec 30-31, 1999/Jan 1, 2000

-The Day After Tomorrow (2004): It's the film that made me fall in love with Jake Gyllenhaal

-Mario (2018): A Swiss film dealing with closeted football (soccer) players. Both leads are hot.

-Boy Erased (2018)

-White as Milk, Red as Blood (2013): An Italian coming of age romantic drama about a teenage boy who wants to save his high school crush who suffers from leukemia. The male lead (Filippo Scicchitano) is hot as fuck.

-Matando Cabos "Killing Cabos" (2004): A Mexican crime-black comedy film that heavily borrows elements from both the Coen Brothers and Guy Ritchie's Films.

-Klute (1971)

I am going back to dumbbell work after a four year break.

Today, it’s Tits, shoulders, and arms. There shouldn’t be an arm day; I pretty much use them in every exercise. Whatever.

The movements (understood by me because they are for me) will be FLYS, LATERAL RAISES, SHOULDER PRESS, CURLS, KICKBACKS (most likely pushups as my floor is clean).

The bribe is that after doing close to 10 reps per movement, I get to go outside and smoke.

I've recently become a baseball fan. Go Astros!! Several hotties on each MLB team. Are there rumors about any closeted players? I refuse to believe all these guys are straight, including some of the married ones.

Critics raved about the chemistry between Michelle Pfeiffer and John Malkovich in the Oscar-winning film Dangerous Liaisons.

And now Malkovich has admitted for the first time that the on-screen passion between them spilled over into real life.

The 71-year-old, who played the amoral rich playboy the Vicomte de Valmont in the 1988 film, confirmed he had an affair with Pfeiffer – and that it had ended both their marriages.

Speaking on the Fashion Neurosis podcast, Malkovich said: 'It's not something I've ever really talked about. Put it this way, in the work I do, you make emotional bonds with people very quickly.

That's part of the work. 'For me, she was someone I valued greatly as a colleague, was great fun and moving and, with me, incredibly fair. And I certainly wasn't.

'I've learned over the course of my life that a great colleague is actually rarer than anything.

'And when that relationship becomes more than collegial or more than a friendship – even a profound friendship – then at least in my experience, and it might be my particular psychology or stupidity or ineptness or all of the above… you lose a great colleague.'

Pfeiffer filed for divorce from her husband Peter Horton in 1988, while Malkovich's marriage to actress Glenne Headly collapsed during filming.

A source who knew Headly told The Mail on Sunday: 'Glenne was no fool. She could see what was going on.

'The whole world was falling in love with Michelle Pfeiffer and so was her husband. She served him with divorce papers as soon as the movie wrapped.'

Dangerous Liaisons, based on the 18th-century French novel by Pierre Choderlos de Laclos, has become one of the most critically acclaimed costume dramas of all time because of its depiction of lust, manipulation and betrayal in aristocratic society.

Glenn Close plays the villainous Marquise de Merteuil who bets the Vicomte de Valmont (Malkovich) that he cannot seduce the virtuous Madame de Tourvel, played by Pfeiffer.

The real-life affair caused scandalous headlines, with the director Stephen Frears later telling The New York Times: '[Malkovich's] marriage was breaking up and during the movie he was having an affair with Michelle Pfeiffer.

'Dangerous Liaisons is about betrayal and lies and relationships unravelling. It was one of those times where reality and art intersect. It was overwhelming for John. Even for a man who delights in bad behaviour, that was a difficult time.'

The movie won three Oscars for costumes, art direction and adapted screenplay and was nominated for Best Picture.

Pfeiffer married TV writer David E Kelley in 1993. The couple have two children and are considered to have one of the happiest marriages in Hollywood.

The actress, 67, has maintained a dignified silence about the affair. Her publicist was approached for comment. Malkovich has been with director Nicoletta Peyran since 1989.

I've always loved this man. Here he talks about movies he made and actors he worked with. His impressions of Charles Laughton are hilarious, and spot on.

Variety: Based on Maggie O’Farrell’s 2020 novel, “Hamnet” tells the story of William Shakespeare and his wife, Agnes, as they grieve the loss of their 11-year-old son, Hamnet.

The film follows the couple as they attempt to reconcile with the loss of their child, and how William Shakespeare began to write his beloved classic, “Hamlet.”

While parents seem to stress about whom their straight kids marry but not so much about whom their kids marry.

Our neighbors scrutinized whom their straight daughter dated. She had to marry someone Jewish, graduated from a top college, professional, upper-middle class. And, she did marry such a guy.

They paid no attention to whom their gay son dated. He ultimately married a Black, Christian, middle-class guy, and they didn't blink an eye.

I assume much of it is about the kids. Interestingly, the daughter now has one kid, a daughter. The gay guys have three kids!

6 September 2025 South Korea's government has held an emergency meeting and vowed to swiftly respond to the arrests of hundreds of its citizens in a massive immigration raid at a Hyundai plant in the US.

Seoul has dispatched diplomats to the site in Georgia, while LG Energy Solution, which operates the plant with Hyundai, said it was suspending most business trips to the US.

US officials detained 475 people - mostly South Korean nationals - who they said were found to be illegally working at the battery facility, one of the largest foreign investment projects in the state.

The White House defended the operation, dismissing concerns that the raid could deter foreign investment.

"They were illegal aliens and ICE [Immigration and Customs Enforcement] was just doing its job," President Donald Trump said following the raids on Friday.

Video released by ICE officials showed Asian workers shackled in front of a building, with some wearing yellow vests with names such as "Hyundai" and "LG CNS".

"People on short-term or recreational visas are not authorized to work in the US," ICE said, adding that the raid was necessary to protect American jobs.

"This operation sends a clear message that those who exploit the system and undermine our workforce will be held accountable," Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) Special Agent Steven Schrank said in a statement on Saturday.

South Korea, a close US ally, has pledged tens of billions of dollars in American manufacturing investment, partly to offset tariffs.

The timing of the raid, as the two governments engage in sensitive trade talks, has raised concern in Seoul.

Trump has actively encouraged major investments from other countries while also tightening visa allocations for foreign companies.

He's literally yelling his lines and the script itself is bizarre when and if you're actually able to pay attention to what they're saying.

The commercials with the enormous frau dancing and jumping around were bizarre enough. But this one takes the cake, and they're running it non-stop. I can't believe this type of company has the national ad-buying power that it does.

CBS News staffers are “freaking out” over a mandate Thursday from the new boss of parent company Paramount Skydance ordering all workers to return to the office five days a week ahead of an expected cost-cutting bloodbath, The Post has learned.

David Ellison, who completed the long-stalled $8.4 billion merger with the media giant last month, gave employees the option to return to their desks full-time or take a buyout, according to the memo obtained by The Post.

“People are freaking out and wondering if they’ll survive at the company until Thanksgiving,” one source close to the situation said.

“They are hoping to get a lot of attrition.”

Paramount Skydance — home to ratings-challenged CBS News, along with struggling cable channels MTV, VH1 and Nickelodeon — is looking to slash at least $2 billion from the budget, The Post exclusively reported last month.

Currently, each business unit has its own work-from-home policy.

Ellison said the “phased return-to-office” will start in January and would mandate employees to return to work in their Los Angeles and New York offices five days a week.

“I believe that in-person collaboration is absolutely vital to building and strengthening our culture and driving the success of our business,” the son of billionaire Oracle co-founder Larry Ellison wrote.

Broadway stars Aaron Tveit and Ericka Yang’s relationship began on the stage, when the two spotted each other rehearsing for the 2009 Tony Awards. At the time, Aaron was starring in Next to Normal, while Ericka was in the ensemble of Rock of Ages. “We were introduced by mutual friends, after both asking who the other person was,” Ericka recounts. “We went on a couple of fun dates, but were both so young. It didn’t go much further, as neither of us was interested in a serious relationship.”

Almost a decade later, the two reconnected when they were both cast in Moulin Rouge! The Musical. “It was a slow burn, developing as a friendship and then realizing we were completely in love,” shares Aaron, who is about to star in a new revival of Chess. “Even though I am from New York and Ericka is from Canada, we connected over similar upbringings, backgrounds, and moving to New York at the same time in our lives. Besides us both being in the same industry, we found that we both shared a love for the simple things: being at home, cooking meals together, spending time with our families, and traveling.”

In September 2023, the couple decided to take the next step in their relationship when Aaron proposed on their rooftop. “It was a beautiful Sunday evening,” he remembers, with Ericka describing it as “private and romantic.” Their engagement was prolonged when the couple found out they were expecting. They welcomed a baby girl in November 2024 and felt their lives were too busy with a newborn to host a big wedding celebration. “But in the end, she is the reason we decided to have a wedding,” says Aaron. “We wanted to celebrate our love with our people.”

Aaron and Ericka knew that their celebration would have to be in New York City. “We wanted to keep it simple: Close to home, delicious food, good music, and our favorite people,” says Ericka. “We love this city and love our neighborhood. That was a big part of the day feeling like ‘us.’” The couple took on most of the planning themselves, with support from planner Mandy Mondoro a few weeks ahead of the big day. The to-be-weds would host their immediate families for dinner at their apartment and get ready for the big day at the iconic Carlyle hotel.

The ceremony and reception were set to occur on June 22, 2025, at the restaurant The Milling Room on the Upper West Side. “It felt very New York,” says Aaron. To capture the day, the couple hired photographer Kristian Hvid, who they discovered from a French Vogue wedding feature. “It turned out he lived in New York, and after we met him, we realized he was the perfect fit,” says Ericka.

McDonald’s called on restaurants to pay their wait staff a minimum wage — rather than relying on tips to make up the difference in salary.

The fast-food giant, which has seen its market share shrink in the face of stiff competition from full-service eateries that rely on tipped waiters, quit the powerful National Restaurant Association earlier this week.

“Right now, there’s an uneven playing field,” CEO Chris Kempczinski told CNBC, adding that “all classes of workers should be paid at or above the federal minimum wage.”

At the center of the dispute is the tipped minimum wage — just $2.13 an hour under federal law — which allows full-service restaurants like Chili’s and IHOP to rely on gratuities to fill the gap to $7.25.

That advantage has helped them push cheap burger deals that cut into McDonald’s sales.

The Big Mac maker decided to exit the NRA over the issue while aligning itself with labor activists who have long blasted the system.

“The subminimum wage is indefensible,” said activist group One Fair Wage, which cheered Kempczinski’s remarks while calling them self-interested.

Chicago, McDonald’s hometown, is already phasing out the tipped wage.

California — which last year raised its minimum wage for fast food workers to $20 an hour — and a half-dozen other states have done the same. DC voted to kill it, then paused the rollout this year.

Trump and RFK, Jr. are making America Healthy Again by kowtowing to industry.

“ The upcoming U.S. Dietary Guidelines will instead be influenced by a competing study, favored by industry, which found that moderate alcohol consumption was healthy.”

The Department of Health and Human Services has pulled back a government report warning of a link between cancer and drinking even small amounts of alcohol, according to the authors of the research.

Their report, the Alcohol Intake and Health Study, warned that even one drink a day raises the risk of liver cirrhosis, oral and esophageal cancer, and injuries. The scientists who wrote it were told that the final version would not be submitted to Congress, as had been planned.

The report is one of two assessments that were to be used to shape the new U.S. Dietary Guidelines’ recommendations on alcohol consumption. Its early findings were reported by The New York Times in January; a full draft remained on the H.H.S. website as of Friday afternoon.

A competing report, written by a National Academies of Sciences, Engineering and Medicine panel, came to a conclusion long supported by the industry: that moderate drinking is healthier than not drinking. Some panelists came under criticism for financial ties to alcohol makers.

In 2021, Nassib – then playing for the Las Vegas Raiders – became the first active NFL player in league history to publicly identify as gay.

Nassib said he agonized over the decision for 15 years, adding that he was a private person and wasn’t seeking any publicity.

Months later, he became the first active NFL player identifying as gay to feature in a regular season game, starring in the Raiders’ thrilling 33-27 win over the Baltimore Ravens.

When he announced, Nassib pointed towards The Trevor Project – a suicide prevention and crisis intervention organization for LGBTQ+ youth – and how it had helped him.

On Friday, Nassib will continue that partnership, as he announces the second round pick of the Cleveland Browns – the team with whom Nassib began his NFL career in 2016 – at the 2024 NFL Draft.

As the team’s guest picker, Nassib will be joined on stage in Detroit by The Trevor Project’s founder and interim CEO, Peggy Rajski.

The reviews are coming in and then are not only universally bad, but even worse than the first season I think.

The Guardian says: "It’s so boring, so contrived, so effortfully whimsical that, do you know what? In the end, it does become almost fascinating. You find yourself wondering things you would never normally wonder, such as, what would it take for me to embark on making vegan macaroons? How large a part of Meghan wants to run screaming for the hills? How excited could I get about tiny eggs from silkie chickens? What if I were being paid the thick end of $100m to do so, before my original deal ran out?"

The Telegraph calls it Meghan's Marie Antoinette moment.

The Independent says, we're being gas-lit by a multimillionaire.

Finally, Meghan has an new interview with Bloomberg today where she says that felt "trapped" at Queen Elizabeth II's funeral, taht she was "not okay." And that as a member of the royal family she was made to wear panty hoes (leggings we call them in the UK) which felt inauthentic (just a note, Catherine didn't start wearing panty hose on public engagements until she was in her mid-30s). She could only wear monochrome colours, but then in S2 of With Love she says she loves only wearing monochrome.

Martha Louise and Durek Verrett announced their engagement in June 2022.

Princess Martha Louise of Norway will this weekend marry a self-proclaimed shaman, who claims to have "risen from the dead". Ms Louise and her American fiance Durek Verrett will get married during a private ceremony in Geiranger, a UNESCO World Heritage Site known for its stunning fjords. The festivities kicked off with a "meet and greet" at a historic hotel in Alesund, where hundreds of guests, including members of the Swedish royal family and American TV personalities, gathered to celebrate the union. The wedding itinerary includes a scenic boat trip along the fjord to Geiranger, where the couple will exchange vows.

Princess Martha Louise, 52, is the eldest child of King Harald V of Norway and was once a competitive equestrian. Mr Verrett, 49, is a Hollywood spiritual guru.

To say that this bitch stole the movie is the understatement of the century.

It's better than I expected it to be. I'm in.

Archived article from Bloomberg Businesweek, (6/6/2025) addresses "Trump's $12.5 Billion Tourism Wipeout"

[quote] Four months into the president’s second term, his policies are upending tourism worldwide. Nine charts show the toll on global travel.

[quote]US President Donald Trump’s “America First” policies have cut into travel worldwide. The simmering trade war, the crackdown at the border and the rollback of LGBTQ rights—capped by a ban on visitors from a dozen countries announced on June 4—have led to tens of thousands of canceled trips. With travelers choosing alternate destinations, the American economy will lose out on $12.5 billion this year, according to the World Travel & Tourism Council—which will widen the trade deficit, because economists count spending by visitors to the country as an export. Here’s a look at the toll the president’s policies have taken on travel, in nine charts.

What a performance by Marianne, madly cunting at the whole world like Peggy Gravel in "Desperate Living." Then in the last third of the movie she rips your heart out.

There's a hilarious scene at the dinner table where she cunts about anything and everything for about two straight minutes ("that baby in the outfit wif pockets! Wot's a baby need pockets for? Is 'e carryin' a KNIFE?") while her sad-sack husband and son eat silently, staring into space.

It's a career-defining role and I can't believe she wasn't nominated for an Oscar — much less passed over for that gerbil-faced kid from the Pamela Adlon show and the hulking Hispanic trans person. Marianne was robbed.

New York State Dept of Health put out a statement that it recommends the vaccine for everyone above 18. It references FDA’s restrictions but then. Says both pharmacists and doctors can override them.

Yet, a friend (66 years old) went for a Covid shot and was told she needed a prescription.

So fucking confusing

Does orange refer more to Trump's hair or complexion? I always thought it was about his hair, but after seeing his face in this link's photo, I'm wondering if it's his complexion.

As a OP of that thread I enjoyed all the tea spilled about this cute but messy bitch. But somehow that thread got blocked so I did pt 2.

Such skimpy little whore duds. And good for him for cashing in on it.

Alas, they’re not available in North American markets.

The US will host the G20 next year, and Trump has confirmed it will be held at his own Trump Doral in Miami. It’s a shithole of a resort, right next to the airport, but he swears he won’t profit a dime from it.

The criminal motherfucker tried this last time, but they talked him out of it. Not so this time.

I hope the other 19 stay home.

It's just about the talkiest gay porno you'll ever see, but even still, the wild colors are a sight to see if you're stoned at 2am.

This underperforming cash grab delighted child audiences in the summer of 1995. Despite obvious budget cuts and a story that would bore a Cuisinart, it's become something of a cult classic among vacant Millennials. The boy Rangers are queer-coded, as are the brightly-lit sets and the FAG-AND-A-HALF SUPERVILLAIN who's dressed all in purple and loves hacky pop culture references.

It would've made more at the box office, but this was the summer of Casper, Congo, Pocahontas, Mortal Kombat, and Batman Forever - all much stronger films for kids and teens.

It stars a bunch of assholes you've never heard of, and it's free on Youtube.

Do like the gays, and throw out your condoms!

They want him to ban birth control, firebomb Planned Parenthood, and yield a mountain of gooey unwanted fetuses to restock what Amy Coney Barrett calls the "Domestic Baby Supply" of healthy WHITE newborns. ACB is still smarting that she had to adopt a few Black ones.

Nothing is said, of course, about the astronomical costs of bearing and raising a child. Good jobs, good housing, good schools, health insurance, etc. Nerts to that! Just come inside us and make it work!

[quote]Thank you for this baby," she says from the backseat. "He's beautiful." I laugh. You're responsible for the beautiful part, Rachel. The only thing he got from me was his balls." She laughs. She laughs hard. "Oh, my God, I know," she says. "They're so big." We both laugh at our son's big balls.

It apparently showed hard dick.

Check out how LONG that plank is!

Omg I will be watching.

LOVED Degrassi!!!

A business end, indeed!

It's a hoax -

Danny Trejo responds to online death hoax: 'I am very much alive'

"Machete" star Danny Trejo set the record straight Sunday after a wave of rumors began spreading on social media, claiming he's dead.

"Thank you all for your concern but I am very much alive," he wrote on Instagram. "Someone is spreading fake news."

It's unclear where exactly the report originated.

Many of Trejo's fans commented on the post, saying statements like, "We love you, Danny Trejo!" and "I'm so happy you're alive."

The David Laid of our time

Is this a thing other guys feel or am I weird ?

I know all you bitches prerinse

He's been releasing single after single and they are pretty damn good. Anyone had a listen? Found on Spotify.

Donald Trump said Monday that he’s deploying the National Guard across Washington and taking over the city’s police department in the hopes of reducing crime, even as the city’s mayor has noted that crime is falling in the nation’s capital.

The Republican president, who said he was formally declaring a public safety emergency, compared crime in the American capital with that in other major cities, saying Washington performs poorly on safety relative to the capitals of Iraq, Brazil and Colombia, among others.

Donald Trump also said at his news briefing that his administration has started removing homeless encampments “from all over our parks, our beautiful, beautiful parks.”

And I don't mean in a movie or in an online photo, magazine, etc. I've seen a few:

- Hank Azaria in the locker room at The Sports Connection in WeHo back in the 1990s. I was really disappointed at how small it was. I mean like micropeen small.

- Forest Whitaker at the urinal in a bathroom at LAX. Again, small - a nubbin.

- John James of Dynasty fame, again at a urinal in a hotel in Denver. Quite girthy and beautiful.

What are your stories, DLers?

Putting the hot in THOT

He wouldn't be the first Steeler to be cruising for cock at the Froot Loop!

"President Trump hosted the elite of Big Tech at a White House dinner Thursday evening, including Meta's Mark Zuckerberg and Microsoft's Bill Gates — and each took turns to lavish praise on him.

Zuckerberg, seated next to Trump at the dinner, thanked him for arranging the event and said that all present were making "huge investments" in the U.S. "to build out data centers and infrastructure to power the next wave of innovation," with Meta committing to at least $600 billion through 2028.

Gates, who was seated next to first lady Melania Trump, thanked the president "for setting the tone such that we could make a major investment in the United States and have some key manufacturing, advanced manufacturing here.""

What a team. Time to jump on the bandwagon, y'all

Good.

"Although most of the Kennedy Center’s 2025–26 dance programming was contractually locked in before President Trump took over leadership of the center in February, Washington audiences are voting with their feet to skip out. Ticket sales are so poor, the Stuttgart Ballet will be performing for an Opera House between 4 and 19 percent full when the German company comes to Washington early next month. BodyTraffic, the Los Angeles troupe booked for the smaller Eisenhower Theatre October 29 and 30, is at 12 percent capacity."

“It’s Hard to Make It When You’re Straight” from Rutland Weekend Television. I only stumbled on this recently.

Raw is law.

Many of these men died from “cancer.”

Which ones fit this profile?

"Police union criticized pulling officers from protecting “everyday Angelenos” to guard a “multi-millionaire” who can afford private security."

Gloria Guida, the Italian actress famous for her roles in sex comedies in which she was often nude. In the video I linked, she's the blonde one.

I didn't even know she existed until a few hours ago. She really was stunning, like a mix of young Amber Heard and Pamela Anderson.

Sabrina Carpenter, the tryhard blowup doll, can't compare.

30? 40? Is it not the most dangerous job in the world?
