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

Dear Rachel Campos-Duffy: If you think that's a disturbing video, wait until you see the ones of Trump in the Epstein files!

We're done with the previous thread. Onward.

I shop for a few staple brand names from Walmart but do not buy produce or meat. Yesterday I went to buy Hellman’s and realized they didn’t stock the quart size, but half a quart, and a whole tier of shelves stocked with their Value brand instead. Ick.

I have noticed over time they also stop stocking certain organic cereal and the shelf will sit empty for weeks rather than restock-

I think it’s because they meet an impasse- where Walmart refuses to pay more than a certain amount and the manufacturers cannot get the price low enough to meet it so they will not stock it.

He looks like he fell off a bridge while fixing it.

We need more Medicare Advantage Plan Adverts. Martha, Martha, why have you abandoned us???

TOTALLY Maude on this special.

I say either Tiffany Trump or Jamie Lee Curtis’ tranny kid.

Rose was probably the most loving, but even her children from a very early age must have realized she was an idiot.

I think maybe none of them would have been good mothers.

She’s over them and called them out and now the right is after her

Everything, from the pulsating drums to synthesizer revving up like a car engine, to the chorus which has to be the most hands on your hips defiant since "Stop! In the Name Of Love!" by the Supremes.

I always wanted to throw on a shawl and strut down the street to it.

And the video is fantastic. Stevie at the height of her beauty with dancers and sets long before Madonna and Janet made it a thing. She was a trendsetter in many ways.

She could have been an actress with those looks as well.

Again with this bitch? It's almost one year exactly since her last high-profile lawsuit tried to do the exact same thing.

Inspired by this article I was reading about memories of the famous/infamous former Cornell U-Halls on West Campus...I was wondering if any of you have any dorm stories, anecdotes, crazy happenings, adventures, tragedies, etc. of your college dorm life. Roommates, sex, lack of sex, pulling all-nighters, bathrooms, showers, the campus pub, etc.

Cuomo, by the way, signed the latest rent stabilization law when he was governor.

The drama continues!

Whatever happened to discretion in America ? I know when you're typing anonymously on your keyboard you can get away with anything, but person-to-person contact ? No one has any discretion these days as to what can be shared with others and what's to be kept private ?

Last night, I met a friend for dinner. We're both in our early 60s, and usually avoid chain restaurants in our area. But last night she had a $50 gift card to Chili's which she won in a raffle a few months ago, and wanted to get rid of it - so off to Chili's we went. I haven't been there in a while, but usually stick to their steak fajitas.

We got seated right away, and had a very nice woman as our server named 'Missy'. She had to be in her mid-50s. Very pleasant, very efficient, very polite, and kept checking on everyone in her section (she had quite a few tables) to make sure we had everything we needed. I honestly haven't had service like this in a chain restaurant in decades. The food was actually very good (but wow - they really cut back on their fajitas in portion sizes and what comes with - mostly everything is now an add-on).

Towards the end of our meal as we were ready to settle our bill, the restaurant manager, 'Sharon' came over to our table to check on us. She had to be in her 60s, and if you remember the show 'Glee', she looked / talked exactly like actress Dot Marie Jones. As she talking to us, she shows us how to pay our bill at the table on those mini-terminals they have (they had brand new ones installed yesterday, so she wanted to go over them with every table) and asks us to fill in the survey at the end for our server, and 'tip her generously'. Hmm.

She then tells us our server 'Missy' is a hard worker, and is raising her grandson on her own, because her daughter's in jail. She says Missy's been there since that location opened 10 years ago, but the district manager wants this woman Sharon to get rid of her, because she takes too much time off every few months to 'get clean'. Sharon tells us that by leaving good reviews for Missy, she has enough 'ammunition' against the DM to keep her. Then she walks away from the table to talk to another table.

In less than two minutes, she told us much more than we ever needed to know about Missy. My friend and I just stared at each other with our mouths open - we couldn't believe this 'manager' shared all this with us. In the end we did leave Missy an excellent review, and a very generous tip (35%) but not because the manager asked us to, but because she deserved it. When we were leaving, we were looking for 'Missy', but she was no where to be found. If we did see her as we were leaving, we would have politely 'shared' with her our experience with her manager without getting into details.

At this point, I don't know for certain what can be done - but what the manager did (no matter her intention) was completely out of line. Anyone else have experience such as this - either as a customer, or as an employee where a manager or coworker shared 'too much' about you ? How did you handle it ?

It's going to happen one day.

Is it just me or do the early 1990's feel so different than the late 1990's? Almost like two different decades entirely.

Side note: it shocks me that no one seemed to be angry that he flew this fucking plane into the ocean and killed to people. People talk about this “accident” like it was an act of God, instead of an idiot who was 100% responsible for this catastrophe. The accident never seemed to dent his popularity a bit. Whereas Ted Kennedy was rightly blamed for Chappaquidick.

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

The former Atlanta Braves outfielder and first baseman spoke out on the "All the Smoke" podcast with co-host Matt Barnes and reflected on how he dealt with the attention placed on his personal life.

"She asked me to marry her after knowing me for five months," he remembers. "I don’t know if my heart was really into it. But I didn’t want to make her feel bad and say no. I was just in the moment, it caught me off-guard. We're getting along, we're vibing, again, we're only five months in, we're still in the honeymoon stage."

The couple, who were wed from 1993 to 1997, spent a lot of time apart while she was out of the country making movies. "It wasn’t really a lot of negative attention until I decided to leave her in 1996," he adds.

She wants to try to get a new spinoff show of just Carrie or a limited series

He filmed that movie four years ago. This has to be a conscious decision.

Is he on the spectrum? He does that thing where they hug themselves when they get overstimulated.

Male hairdresser tells his male customer he knows some girls who would like to hook up with the customer.

The customer agrees, and goes to a secluded park with the hairdresser at night. The hairdresser, who is wearing a backpack, goes off into the bushes to “get his female friend.” Minutes later, a massive “woman” emerges from the bushes wearing a dress.

The “woman” begins eagerly devouring the customer's penis. It finally dawns on the customer that something may be awry ….

Andrea Barber, best known for playing Kimmy Gibbler on both the original and the Netflix reboot Fuller House, shared a photo capturing the joyful cast reunion at Steel City Con.

In the snap, Barber posed alongside Candace Cameron Bure (DJ Tanner), Dave Coulier (Uncle Joey), Jodie Sweetin (Stephanie Tanner) and Scott Weinger (Steve Hale).

But if you look closely, you’ll see other members of the cast weren’t forgotten despite not being there in person, as the cast held up cardboard cutouts of John Stamos (Uncle Jesse), Lori Loughlin (Aunt Becky), one of the Olsen twins, Ashley or Mary Kate, who shared the role of Michelle Tanner and the late Bob Saget (Danny Tanner).

Yes, I'm an elderly gay by DL standards (42 years old but look 49). Love my professional role, very rewarding and pays well enough. Married to an alcoholic but that's a story I've told on other threads.

But lately, I just have no energy or drive. My once clean home and admired garden are falling into disrepair. My personal hygiene is slipping some. Seeing my GP next week to discuss maybe changing my antidepressants.

Considering having an affair to spice things up, but I'm too lazy to even begin.

How do other elder gays cope with getting their zest back? Help me turn my life around, DL!

P.s. the first person to tell me to kill myself inherits grandmother's teacup collection. That's all I have of any worth.

We've had variations on this question/discussion here before, I think, but this has gone a bit viral on social media so I thought I'd ask it here.

The question: Who is the artist with politics you disagree strongly with, whose politics *do* (in your view) influence their art, that you still think is talented and whose work you enjoy?

This could be a musician, actor, writer/author, anyone who is creating art of some kind.

Anyone heard about "I fell in love with my Psychiatrist"?

[quote]“We just wrapped production, so now I’m into the long post that gets into visual effects,” Hawley told Variety while discussing the Emmy nominations earned by “Fargo”.

[quote]“We’re pretty bullish on ‘Alien: Earth’ and we’ve told him that assuming, as we hope, it is a returning television series, we want him to focus on on at least writing two seasons of it before returning to a possible sixth season of ‘Fargo,'” Landgraf said.

The former talk show host — who has been living under a legal guardianship that oversees both her finances and health since May 2022 — was re-diagnosed with frontotemporal dementia (FTD) and aphasia, sources tell PEOPLE

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.”

Jason's hot on her trail, will they have a happy reunion? Carly's still obsessed with Jason, will she again be the spoiler, especially with her current relationship on the verge of imploding? Who will Brennan find solace with?

Meanwhile, Willow decided to terrorize Sasha and her baby with Michael, resulting in a terrified Sasha reuniting with Robert and Holly. Sasha and Michael are on good terms, yet too far apart. Willow isn't exactly on Michael's mind, in a romantic sense; therefore, who will keep Michael's bed warm, aside from the summer heat?

Will Sasha truly be missed by anyone?

Will Britt be welcomed back with open arms?

Cottage- It's a post war blight 1950's ranch house. But I like these two queens. They are inoffensive and down to earth unlike that couple in France or the UK who were remodeling that white elephant.

When I was growing up you used to see old people on TV. They would have a life alert, or insurance commercials. There were shows lke The Golden Girls, and sitcoms regularly featured an old person.

I can't remember the last time I've seen an old person commercial

I've never seen a dentist this hot.

[quote] Syracuse, 1997. Promising undercover police officer Lucas (Tom Blyth) is dealing with a breakup and the recent loss of his father. When he receives an assignment to lure and arrest gay men in a mall bathroom, he is surprised to discover a scintillating connection with Andrew (Russell Tovey), one of his targets.

[quote]As their secret connection deepens and internal pressure to deliver arrests intensifies, Lucas finds himself torn between duty and desire. At his mother’s New Year’s Eve party, Lucas loses a letter no one was ever meant to read. With time running out and his secret life closing in around him, the evening builds towards an explosive reckoning where everything he’s buried threatens to erupt.

We need a distraction from our current catastrophe. What are your most hated commercials? Are Christina and her Jacuzzi bath remodels still annoying the hell out of you?

The ones that bug me the most right now are the life insurance commercials where the wives are always nagging the husbands to get life insurance.

What's wrong with you doing it, bitch? You too fucking lazy? Fuck right the hell off!

Prompted by the recent 'first movie ever' thread...

Much more popular and respected than the1934 film. Is it truly superior? Weren’t the actors sans Turner of the original more respected?

Let’s discuss.

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. . .

Bitch on, bitches!

Nationwide bakery and café chain Panera Bread is set to stop making its own dough and switch to using partially-baked bread made by a third-party supplier. The chain has locations across the United States and Canada, operating under the names Panera Bread or the St. Louis Bread Company. In 2016, the business said it was serving more than 9 million customers each week.

Hundreds of workers are set to lose their jobs as part of the brand's new business strategy, which was announced earlier this year, but is now being rolled out across the country.

Four sites were permanently closed in June, while some 72 workers have been told they will be out of a job in September when Panera's dough-making site in Brentwood, Missouri, is shuttered, according to USA Today. All sites will be closed within the next two years, with the newspaper reporting that cafés will now simply finish cooking frozen bread that has been partially-baked elsewhere, using dough made to Panera's recipe.

The shake-up at the production end of the business comes amid an attempt by the company to focus on growth over the next few years. The brand was embroiled in a social media storm and calls for a customer boycott earlier this year following reports it had sought an exemption from paying the minimum wage.

It subsequently emerged that the company planned to cut jobs. A report by Nation's Restaurant News (NRN) in April revealed that the brand was to close its own dough-making sites and transition toward using external facilities.

The dough will reportedly be made according to the company's recipes, and bread will then be partially baked before being shipped out to individual cafés. Staff will then finish baking the items in ovens on site.

The bread will be frozen before it is distributed, according to USA Today.

Has anybody else had a positive result on a test and a colonoscopy showed that things were mainly ok?

[quote] It’s also telling that J.D. Vance seems to think marriage and parenthood should be mandatory for nearly everyone. He speaks of these choices so often in terms of duty — as if he can’t imagine either being undertaken out of joy. A mere seven years into his marriage, Vance argued people should be “doggedly determined to stick it out” in marriage, no matter if it’s “unhappy” or even “violent.” Despite his claims that “childless cat ladies” are “miserable,” it’s hard not to notice the protest-too-much quality to his obsession with single or childless people. He keeps insisting the childless are “sociopathic,” painting them as selfish hedonists, all in a tone of barely concealed envy — as if he senses they are getting away with something. This has led Vance to repeatedly call for what amounts to a fine for not having children, explicitly saying it’s to “punish” people who are “bad” because they didn’t make the choices he made.

Please plan ahead.

A chilling case that has always haunted me, I hope this doc will lead to her family finding Amy.

Which movie and TV actors are considered a pain in the ass to work with?

She is somewhat forgotten in 2022, which is unfortunate. She had a long, incredible, entertainment career as a successful recording artist, stage performer, talk-show host, golfer and lover to Burt Reynolds.

Now practically no one gets hard copies newspapers, so I don't even really know if the comics sections still get printed. But I used to be fascinated with them when I was growing up in the 70s. The only ones that were really funny to me back then was "Peanuts" and "Doonesbury," and then by the 80s "Bloom County" (which was hit or miss) and "Calvin and Hobbes."

But I was fascinated by the really terrible ones. "The Family Circus" was the most infamous because it was so unfunny by that time (and continues to this day), but there were some that were even older that went all the way back to the Depression or even before in my local newspaper: "Bringing Up Father" (with Maggie & Jiggs), "Snuffy Smith" (which still had humor about Prohibition!), "Prince Valiant," "Mary Worth," etc. they were so obviously out of date I was perversely fascinated by them.

No, not the drag comedy from 1977, “Outrageous” is about the Mitford sisters and their very different lives and ideologies. Fascists, communists, Hitler lovers…

I wish I had BritBox.

Is there a better example of audacious supernatural late '80s horror? I can't think of one. Tawny's hair in this is legendary, and her butch look when she finally becomes fully possessed is beyond words.

Anna Delvey and her bedazzled ankle monitor are pressing on in their never-ending pursuit of a check. Starting later this month, the socialite grifter turned socialite again will compete on the next season of Dancing With the Stars alongside Tori Spelling, rugby star Ilona Maher, pommel-horse king Stephen Nedoroscik, and Bachelor star Joey Graziadei.

Isn’t she on house arrest? you might be thinking. True, Delvey — who was found guilty of scamming investors and banks out of over $200,000 in 2019 — is still technically confined to wearing an ankle monitor indefinitely while she appeals her deportation case. But that hasn’t stopped her from wearing pussy bows to immigration hearings and filming promos for a USA game show. According to “Page Six,” she was recently given a social-security number, permission to legally work in the U.S. and return to social media, and the ability to move freely within 75 miles of her home — which is now her publicist (and reality TV’s reigning PR queen) Kelly Cutrone’s house in upstate New York. She and Cutrone also run their own PR firm, People’s Revolution, and have carved a space in the Altman Building in Chelsea for Fashion Week.

And now, they will somehow find a way to have Delvey film Dancing With the Stars within the radius of her house arrest. Los Angeles, where the show films, is 2,445 miles from New York, and Delvey’s rep hasn’t commented publicly on whether her conditions have changed; ICE did not return the AP’s request for comment. If anyone can figure out how to finagle this, it’s Cutrone or one of her terrified interns. Lauren Conrad, your old boss is calling!

Brandon Blackstock, a talent manager known as both the ex-husband of Kelly Clarkson and the former stepson of Reba McEntire, has died. He was 48.

"It is with great sadness that we share the news that Brandon Blackstock has passed away," a rep for the family tells PEOPLE in a statement. "Brandon bravely battled cancer for more than three years. He passed away peacefully and was surrounded by family. We thank you for your thoughts and prayers and ask everyone to respect the family's privacy during this very difficult time."

On Wednesday, Aug. 6, Clarkson revealed Blackstock had been ill, and she postponed her Las Vegas residency to spend time with their children, River, 11, and Remington, 9.

Not so funny behind the scenes.

A private lab quietly altered voting machines used across the U.S. Then it vanished.

"In 2024, voters in Rockland County, NY, filed sworn legal affidavits claiming they had voted for independent Senate candidate Diane Sare. But the machines told a different story. In one district, nine people said they voted for her. The machines recorded five. In another, five claimed to vote for her but only three were officially counted by the machines. At the same time, In districts where voters clearly favored Democrats (evident by strong support for democratic Senate candidate Kirsten Gillibrand) Kamala Harris’s name either underperformed or seemed to disappear from the top of the ballot completely. They’d found that in some of the counties people where voted overwhelmingly for the Democratic candidate Kirsten, Kamala Harris somehow got no votes at all. At the same time, Donald Trump raked in more than 750,000 votes above what Republican Senate candidates received on the exact same ballots. That would mean 750k people voted for him & skipped the rest of the Republicans on the same ballot. That kind of pattern doesn’t scream voter preference. It whispers something went wrong in the vote count itself. That’s not split-ticket voting. That’s a mathematical anomaly."

"At the center of it all: missing votes, statistical anomalies, and a federally accredited testing lab called Pro V&V, whose seal of approval may be worth less than the paper it’s rubber-stamped on."

"Software changes are not supposed to be considered minor. But Pro V&V approved them anyway without full testing, without public oversight, without explanation. Watchdogs like SMART Elections flagged it immediately. They knew what this meant. If the system could be changed in the shadows, then every vote cast on those machines was at risk of miscount or manipulation."

"Their website, once home to testing logs, certification documents, and contact information, collapsed into a hollow shell shortly after the 2024 elections. Federal law all but guarantees labs like Pro V&V stay in power. Under the Help America Vote Act (2002), they're accredited by the Election Assistance Committee (EAC) in conjunction with National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). But once a lab is in, it stays in."

Nextdoor and Active duty pornie twink Scott Finn decided to inform his folllowers that he is no longer married and finally free as the previous year was really harsh for him. Also he had to inform everyone that he had a wild MMF threesome with his childhood friend and his gf/wife. My guess Finn didn't give a shit about his wife's daughter from another man and was constantly cheating on her with guys and girls.

Here we go again!

Saw the trailer for Leonardo DiCaprio’s new film, One Battle After Another, and the man could easily pass for 60-65. Benicio Del Toro was also in the same trailer and actually looked years younger when he’s actually older than Leo by 8 years.

What does the DL have to say about America's thirstiest little gay Mormon?

Prince Harry has denied he gave Prince Andrew “a bloody nose” during a fight at a family gathering in 2013.

According to an excerpt from a new biography of the disgraced Duke of York, published in the Daily Mail on Saturday, the pair had a heated argument that escalated into a physical altercation. “Punches were thrown over something Andrew said behind Harry’s back”, the author Andrew Lownie claimed.

The alleged fight began when “Harry told [his uncle] he was a coward not to say it to his face. Harry got the better of Andrew by all accounts, leaving him with a bloody nose before the fight was broken up.”

Lownie’s biography, Entitled: The Rise and Fall of the House of York, also claims Andrew told his nephew that his marriage to Meghan Markle, now the Duchess of Sussex, would “not last more than a month”.

He allegedly “accused Meghan of being an opportunist and thought she was too old for Harry, adding that his nephew was making the biggest mistake ever,” and told his nephew he had gone “bonkers”, accusing him of not doing “any due diligence into her past” before they got engaged in 2017.

The legendary “Basic Instinct” and “Showgirls” writer promises a delicious anti-woke script filled with outrageous sexuality and other politically incorrect naughtiness.

"Too busy focusing on my career.." which is about to go south.

You go to restaurants in Europe and everything is fresh. You stay at a hotel and they have these beautiful fresh breakfast buffets.

You go to American restaurants or stay in hotels or go to a hotel breakfast buffet and it’s all about cutting costs. I stayed in a $500 a night hotel in Crystal City, VA and the breakfast buffet included frozen sausage patties and yogurt cups. And coffee in those thermoses.

Ringwalds character is unlikeable and she spends 80% of the screentime looking like she's passing a kidney stone. She's also a snob who hates the rich but secretly wants to be one. She also dresses somehow both like a little girl and a grandma. And can people stop defending that dress with arguments like "It wasn't supposed to be pretty" "It showed Andie's originality"....beech the name of the fucking movie is "Pretty"in pink. Not "Unique looking in pink". It was absolutely meant to blow us away.

And her supposed friendship with Ducky was less a friendship and more him being a pestering puppy-like sidekick. She treats him like a little brother. She's also been stringing him along for years, and just gives no importance to her supposed best friend being in love with her. Hell the bitch even goes to clubs her supposed bff cant enter and is cool with him just waiting outside while she parties. And people rooted for them as a couple?

And yeah Duckie seems gay anyway, less because of his flamboyance and more because he loves telling everyone and their granny how much in love he is with her. Like, dont most guys, especially if they are in the friendzone, keep that stuff to themselves? Seems sus...

Blaine isn't much better. He is as interesting asa cold flat pancake and has zero personality or spine. He has null chemistry with Andie and the 1.5 dates they go on have to be the most depressing in film history. That couples has nothing going for it other than class differences. Zero depth there. Not to mention he gets excused for his sins way too easily. Steff didn't hold a gun to his head, he just said "me or her" and his pathetic self was the one to chose him and his friends. That was on him.But at the last 5 minutes he tells Steff off and approaches Andie, says ILY after 1.5 bad dates and the dumb bitch just drops her drawers.

Ironically who she should have dropped her drawers for was bad boy Steff because at least he showed an ounce of personality and was hot as all hell, plus he seemed like a good lay, going by girlfriend Bennie's demeanor during the party scene in the bedroom. Honestly Spader is the only thing that elevates this movie to being worth my time, because of his hotness and because Spader managed to give the character a little bit if nuance which made him kind of compelling if you think about it

Actually Iona was great too, I just don't understand why she hung out with a drip like Andie. And of course they have her sell out in the end. Viva the 80s I guess.

Harry Dean Stanton as Andie's dad gave a good performance but dear god he was such a sad sack, he bummed me out.

Anyway, give me problematic but fun 16 Candles and the better written characters from The Breakfast Club over this fake attempt at exploration of class that ends up as conservative as shit.

Tip? Tricks?

Please advise.

On Amazon now..apparently filmed during Covid, and you can tell, but shelved until now. It’s like a long Amazon commercial, and stars ICE CUBE as a genius national security agent. It’s laugh out loud terrible.

It’s remarkable when an adopted son looks so much like father. It’s trippy but rather beautiful.

He’s not fat here. Don’t feel like googling his fat photos.

I hope he wins!

A supporting actor in the upcoming "Madden" film quit on Friday -- just two weeks into production -- allegedly over the use of the N-word and full frontal nudity.

TMZ spoke with five members of the cast and crew for the upcoming film starring Nicolas Cage as the NFL legend, and Christian Bale as Raiders owner Al Davis ... and they independently leveled some serious claims about the film's director, David O. Russell.

One "Madden" individual said production had been a "mess" with conflicts, like the aforementioned allegations ... and tensions were being exacerbated by Nic and Christian, who are both true Method actors -- portraying their characters with an intensity that doesn't end when the cameras stop rolling.

In the 80s, it was blond Ken Doll men.

Now it's Latin, Italian, or Middle Eastern men.

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.”

Here's a slightly different version that most people haven't seen before...

Is there any fixing this?

It’s about time!

Sarah Kellen, Adriana Ross, Nadia Marcinkova. Basically all teenaged whores who were elevated to the level of "assistant," i.e. orgy planner and new girl handler. I know they were all given immunity in the 2008 plea bargain, but they all stuck around, and presumably would make decent witnesses---Nadia visited Jeff in prison sixty five times, and became a pilot and flew the Lolita express after the first jail sentence.

New thread for a new year.

The result could be either the greatest performance of any actor's career, or the campiest of all time!

What do we think about the possibility of this happening, and can we think of any other, say, casting oddities. Like Bradley Cooper as Woody Allen, or Glenn Close as Ethel Merman.

I kept seeing this old black and white French movie on lists of fashiony movies and ones that are supposed to be hard to understand. It’s about a good looking man and a pretty lady in a big old fancy hotel talking about maybe meeting last year, or maybe not. They play cat and mouse with love and do lots of walking in gardens and standing around in big rooms with gold walls and curvy ceilings covered in vines and cherubs, rocko style. The French is pretty easy if you pay attention.

People say it’s about memory and time or some philosophy but obviously it’s about dressing nice, knowing how to walk slow, and the pleasure of smoking in the olden times. I got this movie just fine. The men’s suits are sharp, the women’s dresses are from dead French designer Chanel, and everything is super chick. It’s a 90-minute ad for French clothes, perfect hedges and cigarettes. Good movie.

What do fellow DL movie buffs think of this one?

Forget "no kings": you can live in your very own CASTLE smack dab in the middle of Texas, always a white-hot destination! The home's rich history – dating all the way back to 1998 – and strong visual aesthetic (think "Game of Thrones," but with more light and way more incest/inbreeding, and vastly less style) give it a presence that few will forget. Its mammoth throne room is an ideal venue for severely twisted racists to torture dozens of non-white people at any given time, but it's flex-use and also works as a dining room for 200! (Or for neighborhood-organizing Klan meetings.) Party like it's 1999 – okay, 1998 – and live out your dreams of blaring Limp Bizkit & Creed across 14,000 sq ft!

Thankfully the home's residential areas offer a respite from the blood & viscera on the basement level. Included in the sale are a variety of "torture huts" with a witches' brew of evil amusements! Rarely in my career have I seen such a remarkable home – yours for the low, low price of $15 million. But that gets you the castle AND 110 surrounding acres of delightful prairie!

What are our thoughts on this delight plucked straight out of Bavaria?

Any fans here?

It's a Hollywood classic that I've never watched, so I decided to sit down and have a look. Good lord, what a dull film. I will say that Polanski nailed the look and feel of 1930s LA - the clothes, the hair, the cars, the shots of the art deco buildings. But the pacing of the movie was agonizingly slow, and it seemed like every line of dialogue spoken by the actors was unnecessarily drawn out.

Nicholson was great in it. Faye was...well...Faye. And who thought making a noir about water rights in LA would be compelling viewing? Plus, the movie's called "Chinatown," but absolutely no action takes place in Chinatown except in the last five minutes of the movie.

What do fellow DL movie buffs think of this one?

Whoa.

Awhile back I heard a woman say that giving birth feels like you're taking an enormous dump. Is that accurate?

"Being in the closet is silly — there’s no need for it. Don’t listen to your advisers, listen to your heart"

Sir Ian McKellen has offered his take on young gay actors who hide their sexualities from the public in 2025.

Speaking in a recent interview with The Times, Ian said: “I have never met anybody who came out who regretted it. I feel sorry for any famous person who feels they can’t come out.

Ian, 85, went on to co-found LGBTQ rights group Stonewall after coming out.

Ian, known for films like The Critic and Lord of the Rings, went on: “Being in the closet is silly — there’s no need for it. Don’t listen to your advisers, listen to your heart. Listen to your gay friends who know better. Come out. Get into the sunshine.”

In an interview with Attitude last year, Ian said: “I think the most cruel directors I’ve ever worked with were gay. And therefore, I forgave them.”

“One of them – I needn’t name them because it’s all history, but [he was] an extremely distinguished director, worked for the National Theatre and the Royal Court and on Broadway and the Royal Opera, had been imprisoned because of his sexuality,” he went on.

The star of The X-Men film franchise furthermore added: “It doesn’t necessarily surprise me that someone comes out of that sort of an experience with a bitterness and an acidity that is visited on other people.”

Ten authors nominated for this year’s Polari prizes, a set of UK awards celebrating LGBTQ+ literature, have withdrawn from the awards over the longlisting of John Boyne, who has described himself as a “Terf” – the acronym for trans-exclusionary radical feminist.

He needs to fire his agent.

Yes, Trans are real and have been documented since ancient times.

We want to be sure they are treated respectfully, not dumped on like the right wing does for political purposes. The right pretends trans doesn’t even exist.

We know that generally non-trans don’t like using qualifiers like “cis” and “pregnant people.” Most don’t understand or care about pronouns. Their opposition to trans care for minors, however, is due more to ignorance than science.

The bathroom issue also needs to be resolved because trans people should be able to go to a bathroom undisturbed.

So, again with equality in mind, how should our society treat trans?

Do any DLers remember this fucked up story? I had never heard of it before, but a recent interview segment with her came up in my YouTube algorithm. While hitchhiking from Berkeley to Los Angeles, 15-year-old Mary crossed paths with psychopath Lawrence Singleton, who raped her before chopping both of her arms off with an axe and throwing her into a culvert to die. She miraculously managed to slow the bleeding from her limbs and climb onto the road where she was saved by passersby. Possibly the most horrifying element of this story is that this sick bastard was paroled eight years after the fact and ended up murdering a mother of three. Talk about a failure of the justice system. Mary was fitted with prosthetic arms shortly after her attack and has worked as an artist in the years since.

Republican U.S. Rep. Jim Jordan was among those questioned under oath this month about the sexual abuse of Ohio State University athletes decades ago by a team doctor, according to a court filing.

Jordan’s deposition Friday came in a federal lawsuit brought by former student athletes against the university over its failure to stop abuse by Dr. Richard Strauss, who died in 2005. Hundreds say they were abused by Strauss, who worked at the school from 1978 to 1998.

Many ex-wrestlers over the years have accused Jordan, who served as assistant coach of the Ohio State wrestling team from 1986 to 1994, of knowing about the abuse and failing to act.

The 10-term congressman’s office had declined to confirm Friday’s deposition, but it reiterated Jordan’s denial of any awareness of Strauss’ crimes or the cover-up.

“As everyone knows, (House Judiciary) Chairman Jordan never saw or heard of any abuse, and if he had, he would have dealt with it,” a statement said. Jordan formerly sat for questioning during the university’s independent investigation of the matter, but this was his first time under oath.

Alan Tudyk claimed he was dropped from the marketing of 2004’s “I, Robot” after it was discovered in test screenings that he was actually testing higher with audiences than leading man Will Smith.

Tudyk appeared in the film as the robot Sonny via motion capture and voice acting. Axing him from the movie’s publicity meant there were (and still are) people who have no idea he starred in the movie, the actor said.

“They were doing test audiences for the movie and they score the characters in this kind of test screening. I got word back: ‘Alan, you are testing higher than Will Smith.’ And then I was gone. I was done. There was no publicity and my name was not mentioned.”

Mario Lopez reportedly lashed out at former NFL cheerleader Desiree Townsend during a recent court hearing to request a permanent restraining order against her.

Lopez was sued in June by Townsend over claims of orchestrating a smear campaign against her when he reposted an old, humiliating video of her. Townsend is expected to take the stand later this week, where she will be cross-examined as part of Lopez's ongoing effort to secure the restraining order.

Townsend is also requesting $25 million in her case against Mario Lopez and has expressed her surprise that the actor sought a restraining order.

There is no bottom to MAGA depravity:

[quote]MAGA hardliner Laura Loomer lashed out at the Pentagon and Army Secretary Dan Driscoll for the service’s tribute to Medal of Honor recipient Florent Groberg. Groberg, who lost much of his left leg while tackling a suicide bomber in Afghanistan in 2012, was singled out by the Army this week in a post marking the anniversary of the attack.

[quote]Loomer, however, denounced the decision, claiming Groberg, who spoke briefly at the 2016 Democratic National Convention and was born in France, was unworthy of recognition. “There are probably so many people who the Army could honor who have received the Medal of Honor,” she wrote Saturday on X, accusing Driscoll of promoting “anti-Trump Leftists” on official channels.

Reaction was swift, even from former Trump employees and others:

[quote]Chris Miller, Trump’s former acting defense secretary, called Loomer’s comments “an abomination,” while Robert Wilkie, Trump’s former VA secretary, said the Medal of Honor “knows no political affiliation.”

[quote]Medal recipient Dakota Meyer was blunter in a post on X: “If anyone has earned the right to free speech… it’s a man who threw himself in front of a suicide bomber to save lives. What have you done?”

Jennifer Aniston has revealed that conversations with her friend Gwyneth Paltrow sometimes drift to the topic of Brad Pitt. In a recent Vanity Fair interview, the Morning Show star said she and Paltrow, who was once engaged to Pitt, still bring him up in conversation.

Ironically, I went to her and Brad (Pitt)’s engagement party,” Aniston said. Asked if the subject of Pitt ever comes up, she replied, “Oh, of course. How can we not? We’re girls.”

I always thought he was just lazy but he has a hard time focusing on tasks.

He takes things out (of, say, the kitchen cabinet) and leave them in the counter, never putting anything back. I have to give him tasks (like, clean the kitchen) before it occurs to him that it has to get done. He’ll start something and easily get distracted and forget about the first task until I remind him. Some tasks, like organizing his desk, have gone on for years.

However, he does focus when he’s watching TV or playing video games.

In fact, he focuses so much that he has no idea what’s going on around him. He thinks everything magically just stays in order around the house—doesn’t even notice the extra hours that I put into keeping the house (and our lives) tidy.

Should I kill him?

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle will continue their stint at Netflix after their production company signed a multi-year, first-look deal with the streamer for film and television projects.

However, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex's new arrangement is less exclusive than their original 2020 agreement with Netflix, which was an overall deal, according to a person familiar with the pact.

That earlier deal gave Los Gatos-based Netflix the exclusive rights to anything developed by the Sussexes' Archewell Productions and covered things like overhead costs.

In a brief but powerful letter, Madonna asked Pope Leo XIV to visit the Gaza Strip “before it’s too late.” In a Monday Instagram post, the pop icon called on the religious leader as attacks from Israel continue amid its war with Hamas.

“Most Holy Father, please go to Gaza and bring your light to the children before it’s too late. AS a mother, I cannot bear to watch their suffering. The children of the world belong to everyone,” Madonna wrote. “You are the only one of us who cannot be denied entry.”

She added: “We need the humanitarian gates to be fully opened to save these innocent children. There is no more time. Please say you will go.”

Who here has a healthcare advanced Directive? I want to get one in place . What prompted this is my closest friend passed away in June and didn't have a will, Power of attorney, et al, nothing. He lingered in a coma on life support for ten heartbreaking days before he was finally taken off and died about 60 minutes after that.

I used to be obsessed with him and I’m gay. I watched all his porn scenes back in the day. I would buy the pornos he was featured in. He was very hot, very Anglo. His dick was perfect size and beautifully pink. He had gorgeous balls.

He was ahead of his time. Back in the 70s and 80s a lot of porn didn’t utilize angles much but he tried to as much as possible. Tons of shots of him fucking a chick with the camera close to his ass with his pink hole visible.

He also went by Gene Carrier and a few other names. He did star in 2 or 3 gay porn flicks when he first started but didn’t fuck a dude. He did two jerk off scenes where he showed hole and busted all over his own face, and one scene with another man where they jerked off together. He wasn’t into it at all, even for money, so he went to straight porn and nude modeling.

Some of his porn scenes are bogus too.

Gene O’Leary (his real name) was born in Bellevue, Washington on January 30, 1956. After he decided he didn’t wanna do porn/nude modeling anymore he moved to Europe for a while to reinvent himself. He later came back to the states and lived in Vegas, where he was a professional poker player. If he’s still alive he is now 69. Last he played poker was 2021.

He’s been on my mind today as I remembered my fav Playgirl models from my youth (he was in a 1980 issue). Hope he’s well.

As he runs for mayor of New York City, Zohran Mamdani has made his identity as a Muslim immigrant of South Asian descent a key part of his appeal.

But as a high school senior in 2009, Mr. Mamdani, the Democratic nominee, claimed another label when he applied to Columbia University. Asked to identify his race, he checked a box that he was "Asian" but also "Black or African American," according to internal data derived from a hack of Columbia University that was shared with The New York Times.

Columbia, like many elite universities, used a race-conscious affirmative action admissions program at the time. Reporting that his race was Black or African American in addition to Asian could have given an advantage to Mr. Mamdani, who was born in Uganda and spent his earliest years there.

In an interview on Thursday, Mr. Mamdani, 33, said he did not consider himself either Black or African American, but rather "an American who was born in Africa." He said his answers on the college application were an attempt to represent his complex background given the limited choices before him, not to gain an upper hand in the admissions process. (He was not accepted at Columbia.)

"Most college applications don't have a box for Indian-Ugandans, so I checked multiple boxes trying to capture the fullness of my background," said Mr. Mamdani, a state lawmaker from Queens.

The application allowed students to provide "more specific information where relevant," and Mr. Mamdani said that he wrote in, "Ugandan." "Even though these boxes are constraining, I wanted my college application to reflect who I was," he added.

According to a new study, humans can inhale more than 70,000 microplastic particles each day in an indoor environment – far more than previously thought. Worse still, most of them are small enough to penetrate deep into our lungs.

My first encounter with David was not seeing him on the stage (He is a very good actor), but jacking off in the steam room of the David Barton gym.

Later, I did see his work on the stage, and I would hear from friends that he was quite aggressive in coming on to them, vastly overrating his appeal. He reached far outside his league.

Even later one of those friends told me that Pittu was proud of his ability to use the cuteness of his dog, Dagny, to divert attention from staff at Housing Works in the Village, while he switched price tags. "They charge way too much for things," was his defense.

And now this: Pittu is on probation for an incident on August 22, 2022, in Fairfield, Connecticut, where police arrived after onlookers called to report that a dog had been in a car--doors locked, windows rolled up--for more than half an hour. When the car was opened by firefighters, the temperature in the car was 117 degrees, and the dog was in peril, taken away and treated. Police reported that Pittu acknowledged that he knew it was too hot, but he showed no remorse. The dog--named Dagny after the Ayn Rand character; not sure why the police report lists the name as Dagmar--was returned to Pittu, but in December Pittu was sentenced to 25 hours of community service at a Fairfield animal shelter, and his charge will be dropped if the stays out of trouble for two years.

Here's hoping he stays out of steam rooms and Housing Works.

Amy Sherald's cover for this week's issue, "Trans Forming Liberty," is a portrait of the trans model and performance artist Arewà Basit.

The art work is featured in Sherald's show "American Sublime," currently on view at the Whitney. The exhibition was originally set to open next month at the Smithsonian's National Portrait Gallery, in Washington, D.C.-until Sherald learned that the museum was considering removing the painting from the exhibit. Sherald, in response to her perception that the Smithsonian was capitulating to political pressure, decided to cancel her show.

The elder Huckabeast was only slightly taking up for the Palestinian refugees experiencing famine, by pointing out that the Hamas leadership that controls the Palestinian Territories isn't suffering as badly as their people are. He claims the only reason the little people are starving is because the Hamas is blocking the food deliveries.

Singer Belinda Carlisle has criticised pop star Dua Lipa for her “sexualised” performances, branding them “embarrassing”.

The musician, who rose to fame as part of the new wave band The Go-Go’s before achieving mainstream success with her solo hit “Heaven Is a Place on Earth”, disagreed that performances by “young women” in the music industry are “empowering”.

“These days, young women in the music industry are just so sexualised. Like, what happened?” she told The i Paper. “I don’t get it. It’s not empowering – it’s embarrassing,:

“Yes, you will get attention, but not the right kind, and down the line you are going to look back and say: ‘Wish I hadn’t done that.’”

Carlisle, 66, then singled out “Levitating” singer Dua Lipa, 30, stating: “I mean: Dua Lipa? It’s shocking! She’s so talented. She doesn’t need to do that.”

Donald Trump pledged on Sunday to evict homeless people from the nation's capital and jail criminals, despite Washington's mayor arguing there is no current spike in crime.

"The Homeless have to move out, IMMEDIATELY. We will give you places to stay, but FAR from the Capital. The Criminals, you don’t have to move out. We’re going to put you in jail where you belong," Trump posted on the Truth Social platform.

The White House declined to explain what legal authority Trump would use to evict people from Washington. The Republican president controls only federal land and buildings in the city.

Christopher Atkins posted a picture of many of the cast from both the original series and the reboot who reunited this month.

[quote]I can't get over the pettiness. When you go to a wedding, sit where they put you, shut up, smile and be kind. honestly...... It's a couple of hours out of your life. and by the way, the bride and groom and planners do not want ANYONE offended. Perhaps they place close friends in a spot not as close because they think their friends can put up with it without complaining.

Even as a teen, I've always had a 15-20-year-older preference for hombres, and so back then, it meant men in their 30s.

Now that I'm 41, I find myself checking out 55-60+ men.

The company that brought the internet to the masses in the 1990s and early 2000s recently posted a notice on its website saying that it “routinely evaluates its products and has decided to discontinue Dial-up Internet” on September 30, ending more than three decades of operations.

Even as broadband and wireless internet became the predominant way people access the internet, AOL never stopped offering its sluggish service that connects people to its service over a landline. However, about 160,000 people connect to the internet through their landline telephone service, data from the 2023 US Census shows.

Who still has them?

I do, and Spectrum just raised my rates, and again I am faced with the question, "Do I need to hold onto this for emergency sake?"

But, (I believe), the connectivity of my landline is very different now than in the age of phone jacks. If there was some time of technological blowout, (like Leon Skum intentionally presses a button shutting everything off to cause mass hysteria), my landline would be of no use anyway, because modems would also be affected.

Does that make any sense?

The extent of my own hairiness has only become apparent at this, age 40. I didn't realize that boys having a full, curly, black chest hair was uncommon at 12.

No offence but this guy looks OLD.

He looks ten years older than his age whick is 55 I guess.

I guess in the UK one can retire young( relatively) because medical care is free and there are other things that are free in the UK unlike the USA.

President Donald Trump declared Sunday that homeless people in Washington, D.C., must leave the capital "immediately," promising they would be relocated "far from the Capital" as part of a broader effort to make the city "safer and more beautiful."

Because Washington is a federal district rather than a state, it falls under the constitutional authority of Congress rather than a governor, meaning any presidential attempt to take over the city would raise serious constitutional, legal, and political concerns.

The president already has unusual power over the capital, including direct control of the D.C. National Guard, and bypassing local leadership could pave the way for militarized control or federal overreach.

Such a move could further undermine D.C.'s limited self-governance—its residents lack voting representation in Congress and see their laws subject to congressional override—while setting a precedent for using federal authority to override local decision-making in other U.S. territories.

In a Truth Social post, Trump wrote, "We're having a News Conference tomorrow in the White House. I'm going to make our Capital safer and more beautiful than it ever was before. The Homeless have to move out, IMMEDIATELY. We will give you places to stay, but FAR from the Capital. The Criminals, you don't have to move out. We're going to put you in jail where you belong."

"Be prepared!" he added. "There will be no 'MR. NICE GUY.' We want our Capital BACK."

The announcement comes amid heightened federal law enforcement activity in D.C. and follows Trump's earlier threats to place the city under direct federal control.

Trump has repeatedly criticized the city's leadership, calling D.C. unsafe and poorly managed, but his latest comments mark an escalation in rhetoric and policy toward the homeless population, coupled with a pledge to intensify criminal enforcement.

In this edition, let's compare and contrast a couple of lady loonies, one who manages to keep her craziness somewhat under wraps except for unexplained, uninhibited cosplay and carrying $3K in cash in her purse. The other lets it spill out all over. (the crazy, not cash)

The first is obviously Kristi Noem who subsidized her cosmetic dentistry by using her official South Dakota Twitter account to promote a Texas dentist. The second is obviously Laura Loomer.

The middle-aged desire to stay as young and dewy as possible is understandable. But Loomer started young. Looking at the few "before" pictures out there, I've wondered if she started out to fix a telltale coke nose. I learned about coke noses on an old Trey Parker thread and Loomer's presurgical nose looks like it. It also could help explain the crazy and her energy.

Before and after Kristi in the next post.

It was just 16 years ago she was thrusted onto the international stage when then Arizona Senator John McCain named her as his running mate in the 2008 Presidential Election.

While middle America found her cute and folksy, both the Republican and Democrat Establishment found her out of her depth and in over her head. When she and McCain lost to Senator Barak Obama and Joe Biden, she went back to her native Alaska where she resigned the governorship and focused on her book and T.V. deals.

Now more of a celebrity than a policy maker, she is the incomparable Sarah Palin.

Why didn't this work to her advantage?

Let's discuss the commercial successful film adaptation of John Grisham's A Time to Kill. The film follows the trial of a black man who murdered two white redneck boys who raped his daughter in rural Mississippi.

Directed by Joel Schumacher

With an ensemble cast consisting of Matthew McConaughey, Samuel L. Jackson, Sandra Bullock, Kevin Spacey, Oliver Platt, Brenda Fricker, Charles S. Dutton, Ashley Judd, Patrick McGoohan, Kiefer Sutherland, Chris Cooper, Dough Hutchinson, Beth Grant, Nicky Katt, John Diehl, Kurtwood Smith, Anthony Heald, M. Emmett Walsh, Jon Seneca, Octavia Spencer, and Donald Sutherland.

Other people talk too but MISS ANGIE DICKINSON!

It's odd that Trump is willing to destroy the economy with tariffs just to get one sector economy to jump start--manufacturing.

There's so much more to the economy--much of it service, nowadays--with travel, entertainment, tourism; also farming and food; academia and government; safety.

Manufacturing is being replaced by automation, and no one will work in US plants unless wages are high, making the products too expensive for much of the world

Team USA gymnast Frederick Richard roared to a second-place finish in the men's all-around at the U.S. Gymnastics Championships on Saturday. His quest for a medal at the championships went hand-and-hand with another quest: to make men's gymnastics more cool.

As part of his goal to help grow the sport, Richard swapped out part of his uniform for the competition. Instead of the stirrup pants and socks typically worn during four of the men's events — parallel bars, high bar, pommel horse and rings — Richard opted for color-coordinated compression leggings and a pair of shorts with his University of Michigan uniform.

However, why in the world has Mr. Brightside been on the UK top 100 charts for 468 weeks? That's a solid NINE years out of the 21 years the single has been out.

It is also the most streamed single released before 2010 and the biggest selling single to never have reached #1 (beating "Wonderwall.")

Yes, it is catchy as all hell, but what is the stranglehold Mr. Brightside has over England?

About 2-1/2 hours ago I went out to the front yard to call my three indoor/outdoor cats in for dinner. I called names, and thought I saw my black cat running from across the street, but when I opened the gate in rushed a black puppy instead, his ENTIRE body one big wag. My neighbor's fiance was doing yard work across the street at her house. He saw me and was spitting nails, saying "These two guys just pulled up in front of me, opened the door and THREW that puppy out, looking dead in my face and smirking the whole time!"

I scooped Puppy up, and he immediately snuggled into my neck. Took him inside to a spare room, sat on a sofa with him on my lap. Suuuucch a good little one. Three of the cats are curious-to-indifferent; one just stalks off when Puppy approaches; the last is LIVID.

My question: is it okay to put Pup on the front porch for the night? I don't want nighttime animal drama, plus I don't know Pup's health status. I have several cat beds s/he'd fit, and while I don't have dog food, I have plenty of high-quality cat kibble Pup already seems to love. Of course I have water bowls. Pup would be 1000% safe as long as s/he stays inside the yard, inside the fence line.

Pup is sweet as pie and good as gold. Except he keeps trying to gnaw on my phone charger cable, which is easy to put out of his reach. But I'll give him some cat toys to keep him entertained.

Tomorrow I'll deal with which no-kill shelter to take him to. He really is a big-little ball of total sweetness. Plus his little snuffling noises sound like Snoopy.

I’ve started at least two threads about this. This is my 12th gay cruise and I think this will be the 12th gay cruise. I’ve never had sex on because today is the last day of the cruise. So my record of no sex on these gay cruises will be unbroken. The first day of the cruise at the bon voyage party a hot guy was cruising me. I have not seen him since that first day and no one else has expressed any kind of interest in me on this ship. Oh well.

This guy cracks me up. He's got a decent enough body, but his "dancing" is more just hopping around in place. With a little formal training, he might be better.

“It was such juicy reading for people," the Morning Show actress told Vanity Fair in an interview published August 11. "If they didn’t have their soap operas, they had their tabloids.”

Service shutting down for good.... bye bye chat rooms.

In Austin.

Today on a local NPR radio station, there was a panel discussing 'finding love' in your later years. They mentioned a lot of people aren't interested in wanting to fall in love after a certain age (mid-70s), and are content living alone or just having a 'companion' in their later years, after a divorce or death of a spouse. Many stay in a marriage they are unhappy with after 70, rather than even get a divorce (but they live like companions, not a married couple). Which brings us to John Davidson...

One of the panelists said she is very good friends with John Davidson (the actor / entertainer / TV game show host from the 60s - 90s) as he's been her 'summer neighbor' on Cape Cod for a while. She said Davidson, now 83, was in his second marriage of 40 years (his first ended in divorce), living a quiet life in northern MA / Cape Cod when he got a call that his younger brother died in Scotland back in early 2023. He hadn't been out to Scotland to see his brother in years, and knew since the last time he had seen him, he had gotten remarried to a younger Scottish woman. JD never met her before, but talked occasionally when he would call his brother on a regular basis. When his brother died, the sister-in-law called JD and asked him to come out there to attend the funeral, and help 'settle' some family matters - so JD went out there alone (without his wife or kids), and ended up staying for over a month.

When he returned home, he told his wife he had fallen in love - with his widowed sister-in-law in Scotland. He and his wife had been living as 'companions' for some time, and they didn't want to go through a divorce, in the past. These days, for the past two years, he spends part of his time in MA with his family of 40+ years, and part of his time in Scotland with his new girlfriend of two years, and everyone seems satisfied with the situation. She said he's pretty open about it in public. I think whatever makes one happy - especially late in life - is 'the secret of life' (as Streisand now says).

As a side note, I 'Googled' Davidson, and not much comes up about him or his current situation. According to Wiki, he's been married for over forty years (as she said), lives in NH (she said northern MA - close enough), yet no mention about him having a younger brother (sounds like he's an only child) or a romance in Scotland with his sister-in-law. But I don't doubt his neighbor's story.

I'm glad he's still passionate, but if this is what passes for "off-the-cuff" remarks from our boy, then he still won't have the goods in time.

We don't need another over-coached candidate who takes twenty words to express a simple idea. Get to the FUCKING point, Pete! America is desperate for blunt talk.

Try this:

"This illiterate groper has more felony convictions than any five mob bosses, and he still thinks he belongs in that job."

"He gave our health care system to an ex-junkie who beheads zoo animals for fun."

"He runs education under a crooked old ghoul who spent more on sexual harassment hush money than she spent on her latest yacht."

"He put a wife-beating drunk in charge of national defense."

"He turned the Oval Office into a Bangkok brothel, and I'm not just talking about the shitty gold spray paint on the walls."

"He golfs six days a week, sleeps through intelligence briefings, and fires anyone who shows up to work on time."

"America, you blew your own legs off with a shotgun when you elected this man, and if you want any thin hope of surviving, you'd better wake the fuck up and fix this shit right goddamn now."

Jesse Grant, a father of three, says he just got off work at a nearby business when he and his coworker bought Safeway's Monday Cheap Chicken deal, and were eating in a car parked outside the grocery chain.

"I was throwing my chicken onto the ground outside my window so I wouldn't get any mess in my co-worker's car," Grant said.

That's when he says another driver parked next to them and accused him of throwing chicken bones at her vehicle.

That is symbolic of what you mean to them?

I have.

It’s such a beautiful, thoughtful, loving & caring gesture.

This person who did this, is so much more than I understood or expected, until now.

Over the years, this person has made multiple thoughtful/loving gestures toward me, & I guess I’m writing this right now, because this morning, on my way to work, I was listening to my Lisa Romano podcast, & she strongly advocated the concept of standing in one’s feelings, & going from there, in order to achieve true authenticity.

She’s amazing, & I trust her. So I’m posting this not as a recognition of the person who got a tattoo in reference to me, but as to me, who inspired that tattoo in the first place.

That doesn’t mean I do not recognize him for doing so. It means that I’m FINALLY realizing what an absolutely loving & hopeful gesture that was/is, & it has genuinely inspired me to seek myself out in a way that what are the absolute best for me, & why that matters.

And look 👆🏽!

I want this partner & prefer him over all, however, I have to stop fucking around with my life/future, ASAP, & get down to the nitty gritty in order to live the life I have imagined for myself, single, or partnered, MANY times over.

I have goals. I have a dream that is long term. I have thoughts and ideas of happiness, love, sharing, companionship, & strong, healthy bonds, that result in commitment. I understand it’s taboo to know who that plays out with, but currently? I DGAF, because in my heart, I know who it plays out with, & I want that, & I will not deny myself anymore from that.

That’s not codependency, it’s intuition, & I will NOT be shamed for having intuition.

I suppose that what I’m attempting to impart, is, that if you know who is right for you? Don’t deny yourself from that.

Don’t become a stalker. Let go, & let the universe guide you, just like that prism tattoo guided him to me.

Sometimes? Things are meant to fucking be. Deny or accept it.

What you do, is up to you.

Regardless of the result?

Get inspired.

The goal truly is to find yourself & work it all out.

I was so preoccupied with worries about COVID and everything else at the time and was paying no attention to movies. I didn’t even realize this was a movie until I looked up a recent list of Best Picture winners and was like, what the hell was this?

I was completely underwhelmed. The directing style and photography was flat and unimaginative and the story was formulaic. It was also very exposition heavy in the beginning as we needed to be reminded that she could hear and they could not. I didn’t like the characters and I thought the father was gross and crude.

I did like that the high school students looked very real and age-appropriate. And that none of them were Broadway ready. But I thought it was sorta boring.

For the most part, they only become really respected once they direct films they do not appear in themselves and then can keep up the pace by bringing put more films. This is a large part of why Robert Redford and especially Clint Eastwood are so highly respected. This is not an infallible rule (most of Woody Allen's most respected films were both directed by and starring him), but it's mostly true.

Bradley Cooper is genuinely talented as a director, and Barbra Streisand is quite good (though not brilliant). But all the films they've directed have been star vehicles for themselves, and so they seem like egomaniacs.

Once a dramatic feature of the White House entryway, the official portrait of former President Barack Obama has been moved to a decidedly less prominent position, underscoring the yearslong tensions between the 44th and 47th presidents.

Portraits of other recent predecessors, former President George W. Bush and his father, George H. W. Bush, have also been moved.

Trump directed staff to move the Obama portrait to the top of the Grand Staircase, where it will now be out of view from thousands of visitors who tour the White House each day. One of the sources added that the portraits of both Bushes are also now in the staircase area.

Rozentals says he was suspended from his funded training programme because he makes what have been described as "edgy videos"

Kurt Adams Rozentals, a canoeist who has been training to compete on behalf of Great Britain at the 2028 Olympic Games in canoe slalom, says that his hopes have been dashed thanks to him launching an OnlyFans account.

The 22 year old athlete had previously been part of Paddle UK’s funded training programme for Olympic hopefuls until he was suspended in April.

The organisation have referred to the suspension as an “interim action” which is designed to “safeguard other athletes, staff, and volunteers due to the nature of the allegation”. It has not made clear exactly what the “allegation” against Rozentals is, however its disciplinary policy list does include “offensive use of social media and indecent, offensive or immoral behaviour” as examples of gross misconduct.

The canoeist has said that he only started in the account on January of this year in order to cover the costs of his training, as the £16,000 he received a year on the programme was not enough to pay for his needs.

“At the end of the day, I started this to help with the sport, and it certainly is helping when I’m on the start line, and I’m not having to worry about rent and food on the table. It’s a good feeling,” he said in an interview with Sky News.

In an emotional post on social media last month, Rozentals wrote that he “might lose [his] sports career.” He went on write: “i started making what they now describe “edgy videos”, with the focus to grow a following, because trying to live on the salary PaddleUK pays their athletes is near impossible.”

Cutie pie.

I've been having this debate with a coworker today about Peter Phillips’ status as a royal. My coworker claims that as the grandson of the monarch and the son of a princess, he's royal. She said that by blood, he's as royal as William, Harry, and the York sisters. (Edward’s kids are, once again, the forgotten stepchildren.)

My argument is that he is a member of the royal family, but not royal. He's just like all the other Brits who can claim to be descendants of a monarch, without a royal title of their own to make that connection relevant.

What say you DL?

Oh boy. Hope this ends well but his track record with the type is not good.

Since our former "Heartstopper" stans have thankfully departed, I'm hoping I can get an actual answer to this question. It was VERY obvious that Connor had a massive crush on Bash when he was still dating Joe Locke, and I guess they met via some sort of "gay Netflix actor group chat" or something – all before "Heartstopper" even premiered. I stopped following all of them for a while, but then I went back on IG and started noticing Connor showing up repeatedly on Bash's stories, and vice-versa. Connor's still in Toronto, but has flown to London at LEAST three times this year to "hang" with Bash.

Am I missing something here? Who on EARTH flies to the UK three times in a single year just to "hang out with a friend," particularly if they're not wealthy? (And Connor hasn't had a paying job since "Locke & Key" ended several years ago.) Are they fucking on the DL like Bash & Joe were?

Connor's now a geriatric gay (he turned 30 this year), but seems to hang out exclusively with twinks under 22. I'm not sure what's sadder: him flying 3,000 miles just to get some ass, despite living in one of the most gay-friendly cities in the world, or him obsessing like a teenage girl on his "crush."

He's young, he's gay, out and married.

And best of all, he's been in some of the hottest shows on television.

Hunter was in the highly acclaimed "Your Honor," and now he's in the #1 Netflix show, "Wednesday."

Who says that out, gay actors can't find success in Hollywood?

The OG Real Worlder and host of the Grind work out videos has lost his mind to the Woo, making videos about his encounters with mystical beings and dragons on the spiritual plain. This is what plant medicine healing leads to. Poor guy

He claims to not be gay. He is flaming in this video.

This 20-year-old college student is autistic/neurodivergent, has Tourette's syndrome, suffers a vague disorder that causes her to have fainting spells, AND she sometimes uses a wheelchair but can also do yoga and walk if she wants to—and don't you question her disability, because not all disabilities are consistent nor do they all look alike and she is VALID!!!!!!!

“The old movie stars are getting plastic surgery, and they’re looking younger and they’re staying young. You have these really old people playing young roles. And it’s not giving any space for the young’uns to move in and make a name for themselves. With all due respect to those people, one day they won’t be here anymore, literally, and they will have to create new stars.”

Yes, folks, this is him.

I didn't believe at first, but then I took a closer look. Beneath the beard are the familiar face and eyes.

Guys what happened to gay pornstar Markie Moore? I know he retired, then unretired. Then seemed to have some legal trouble? His Twitter (X) account sounds like he's in jail now? Anyone actually know. Really always liked Markie Moore aka (real name) Dillon Jack Lowe.

I watched this the other night. How can this fabulous woman be forgotten?

It starred Sam Elliott and his chest hair.

Just saw a couple of new stories about P-town facing a dramatic drop in bookings this coming summer and everyone was saying it’s become way too expensive for what you get. People coming for years and years have decided to go elsewhere because it’s way too overpriced. Ugly water, fried food, traffic…not worth the ridiculous cost.

It's so prevalent that I think most of us are desensitized to it. This morning we're watching Halloween Kills on SyFy. One part of the movie is a gay couple, (and they're really sweet). Neither is portrayed is particularly effeminate, but of course one is wearing a kimono style wrap and lots of jewelry, the other is in a pirate shirt and heavy makeup. It's Halloween of course but most of the typical tropes are met. They of course die.

I've noticed lots of commercials lately with lesbian couples portrayed otherwise as mainstream. Yet every fucking Prep commercial has to include stereotyped gay men and drag queens. They'll show two women embracing in commercials but never men. It just goeso n and on.

What songs - older, new or somewhere in between - lift your spirits and make you forget your troubles?

The world may be collapsing, but let's have a few moments of joy.

Seriously. Every news broadcast, for the last week.

Have seen three ads yesterday for names on backpacks. Publicly displaying a child's name can make them vulnerable to strangers who will use the name to gain their trust and potentially lure them away. Initials are OK. Include Name and Phone inside, in case your kid loses it or there are same backpacks at school.

Interesting listicle in The Guardian - a bit British focused, but figured DL'ers would have opinions about the list and/or who they'd put on their own list of terrible characters that ruined a show.

Let it loose, gurls!

It’s already astonishingly realistic. In five years, it will be indistinguishable.

What the legal implications? If illegal-in -real- life content is “imagineered” will this be punishable?

What will happen to all our Only Fans content creators? Will they “collaborate” with a machine?

Genie is out of the bottle.

What would life be like without Stevie Wonder, Elton John, or Prince records? Yet we constantly bicker over female diva ship. Why do we act like George Michael’s discography in the 80s wasn’t just as important if not more so than Madonna’s decade catalogue. Don Henley’s The End of Innocence is one the best albums of all time. We have let media and fashion queens, ie the 1 percent, overly define our tastes.

I'm the wink you made 50 years ago.

I see you!!

Surprised I didn’t see a thread on it yet! Are you gonna see it? And if you did did you like it? I thought it was a wild ride, do recommend it.

Are they mini celebs in their orbit?

TV networks churned out a lot of these over the course of these two decades, and a lot of them are great fun. A personal favorite is "Home for the Holidays", a Christmas slasher starring Sally Field, Julie Harris, Jessica Walter, and Walter Brennan.

I remember dealing with this with old neighbors.

Is there anything that sounds worse?

My partner is from the Philippines, and he’s very Americanized, but his sister never wants to turn on the damn air conditioner. She invited us over to her apartment for dinner last night. When we arrived, she had just finished cooking and it was like walking into an oven. She had been cooking, plus the door was open, and the sun was shining in the door that time of day, so I looked at the thermostat and it said “87 degrees.” She walked over to the corner of the apartment and looked at the thermostat and she said “oh, it’s 87 degrees.” I thought she was going to close the door and turn on the air conditioner, but instead, she just turned on a fan. Great idea, let’s just blow the hot air around.

Don’t get me wrong, I love her, and she has always been nice to me. It was nice of her to invite us over, and she is an amazing cook. But most people who invite guests over for dinner don’t force their guests to sweat like inmates. This is something I have noticed with some of my partner’s other friends as well. We go over for dinner after they cook and it’s just like walking into an oven.

The design for a 36 mile long spacecraft, called Chrysalis, includes libraries, tropical forests and structural manufacturing facilities, all supported by artificial gravity.

Engineers have designed a spacecraft that could take up to 2,400 people on a one-way trip to Alpha Centauri, the star system closest to our own. The craft, called Chrysalis, could make the 25 trillion mile (40 trillion kilometer) journey in around 400 years, the engineers say in their project brief, meaning many of its potential passengers would only know life on the craft.

Chrysalis is designed to house several generations of people until it enters the star system, where it could shuttle them to the surface of the planet Proxima Centuri b — an Earth-size exoplanet that is thought to be potentially habitable.

I'm curious who still has a landline at their residence, and why ? I'm 61 and got rid of mine a couple of years ago, when I got rid of COX cable and just kept the internet. Having a landline cost me an extra $30 / month on my bill, and the only usage I got from it was receiving dozens of telemarketing callers every day (even though my number was on the Do Not Call list). When I can't find my cell in the house is the only time I regret not having a landline.

A lot of my friends and relatives still have a landline, but admit they don't have any use for it (same thing with telemarketers calling the line). I'm curious if anyone here still has it - and why ?

Rather awkwardly for a leading expert on serial killers who wrote a book with the title 'How to Catch a Killer', Kohberger had Dr Katherine Ramsland completely fooled. She claims he exhibited no 'red flags' or warning signs, and she now hopes he will collaborate with her on future research into his 'developmental trajectory' because she could ask him questions that no-one else could.

I'm not sure how this sits with his supposed recent diagnosis of autism - I know autists are supposed to be good at masking but wouldn't autism make it exceptionally difficult to hide all your red flags from someone like Ramsland over an extended period of time?

I personally think highly intelligent, innovative people who create things and then experience some early success build a shroud of narcissism where they simply believe they are immune from death. This man was so fucking sexy.

What do you think?

If Mama’s Family was on now, what storylines could they do, aside from Vint joining Aunt Fran. Her granddaughter would be 35 now.

aka Connie Stevens...87!

Stevens was born Concetta Rosalie Ann Ingoglia in Brooklyn, New York, United States, the daughter of musician Peter Ingoglia (known as Teddy Stevens) and singer Eleanor McGinley. Stevens is of Italian and Irish descent. She adopted her father's stage name of Stevens as her own. Her parents divorced and she lived with her grandparents and attended Catholic boarding schools. Actor John Megna was her maternal half-brother.

She turned down the Valerie Perrine role in Lenny because of its nudity.

If so, what are your thoughts on it?

Holy shit! What a wild-ass series! We've just started Season 4 and are thoroughly addicted.

We particularly like the way they have portrayed Deran--the gay brother. About as non-stereotypical as you can get, just as tough as shit as his brothers are. His sex scenes are straightforward and sexy, and I love the way his brothers (and mother) are totally accepting.

And Ellen Barkin (Smurf) rocks!

Anyone else love this series?

Written as a cheesy B-movie with a simple plot and fun effects, Tremors straddles the line between monster flick and comedy. A handful of Nevada rurals fend off an invasion of giant, man-eating earthworms using increasingly desperate tactics. Bacon and his buddy are sweaty, funny, and scrappy as reluctant desert heroes. They're not gay, but they live together in a very small trailer.

The cast:

Kevin Bacon as Your Stepmom's Shower Fantasy

Fred Ward as Your Gay Uncle's Shower Fantasy

Reba McEntire as Boredom Between Tour Dates

...And, it's convinced me that I must catch up on Wolf Hall. I've never seen any of them!

1934’s It Happened One Night swept the Oscars February 27, 1935—Best Picture, Director, Actor, Actress, & Writer—a feat seldom duplicated. The big surprise for me was that I thought It Happened One Night was a straight up comedy, but it's really a humorous but heartfelt slice of life in America’s Depression era. My first-time look @ Frank Capra's classic, w/ Clark Gable & Claudette Colbert:

Charlamagne tha god, whose real name is Lenard McKelvey, is co-host of the popular radio show "The Breakfast Club," which draws more than 4 million weekly listeners.

"I think that traditional conservatives are going to take the Republican Party back," McKelvey said during an interview on "My View with Lara Trump." "I think this Epstein thing is going to be a way for traditional conservatives to take their party back, I really do."

"I think they know this is the issue that has gotten the base riled up," he said. "The MAGA base isn't letting this issue go, and for the first time, they know they can probably take the party back and not piss off the MAGA base."

He was mentioned on the thread "Conservative Pundit Can't Define ‘Woke’ During Interview About Her Book On Wokeness". Surprisingly he's married to a woman.

Do any of you know him or heard rumors about him?

What do they mean by "card" in this context?

I see many Americans reference these as part of the school experience and as a non-American I'm curious about it. Were they at all effective? How ridiculous were they (if at all) in your opinion?

Normally a busy job, New York’s current Lieutenant Governor has had a totally empty schedule since he launched a primary challenge to Governor Hochul. In response to his campaign, she stripped him of his office, his budget, his staff, and even his email account. He drives himself to public events and has a single staffer now. She won’t even reimburse him for state expenses.

Kathy is one bitter Buffalo housewife, and this is tacky beyond estimation. The guy never stood a chance at toppling her, but she still went this far to crush him anyway.

Has there ever been a better interviewer than Michael Parkinson?

The son of a Yorkshire miner, he rose through the ranks of local British newspapers until he landed his own show Parkinson in 1971, which has run in some sort of capacity until 2014. Between runs of Parkinson, he hosted Desert Island Discs and wrote op-eds for the Sunday Times and The Daily Telegraph.

Simply put, he is the gold standard of talk show hosts.

Stephen King and director Jack Bender have joined forces again for a new TV thriller "The Institute". Based on King’s best-selling 2019 novel by the same name, Bender said after working together on shows such as crime drama "Mr Mercedes" and sci-fi show "Under the Dome" they were keen to find a new project.

The Institute tells the story of Luke Ellis, a boy who is abducted and wakes up in a mysterious facility called The Institute, where other children with special abilities are held. The series will star Ben Barnes and Mary-Louise Parker, with Joe Freeman as Luke Ellis. "It's a sort of… a slow simmering sort of horrifying thriller rather than a horror," Barnes said.

While the first series covers the book, there are plans to continue. Trailer posted at R1.

The Reagan-appointed judge ordered the NIH to restore funds for research related to racial minorities and LGBTQ+ people.

A federal judge appointed by Ronald Reagan on Monday accused the Trump administration of “appalling” and “palpably clear” discrimination against racial minorities and LGBTQ+ Americans.

“I’ve never seen a record where racial discrimination was so palpable. I’ve sat on this bench now for 40 years. I’ve never seen government racial discrimination like this,” said U.S. District Judge William Young, a Massachusetts-based jurist who took the bench in 1985. Young’s sweeping rebuke during a court hearing was a reference to two executive orders signed by President Donald Trump that led the National Institutes of Health to rescind funding for research related to racial minorities and LGBTQ+ people. Though Young said he was uncertain whether he had the power to block the executive orders themselves, he declared the NIH cuts Monday to be “illegal” and “void,” and he ordered the NIH to immediately restore the research funds. An appeal is likely. “I am hesitant to draw this conclusion — but I have an unflinching obligation to draw it — that this represents racial discrimination and discrimination against America’s LGBTQ community,” the judge said. “That’s what this is. I would be blind not to call it out. My duty is to call it out.“ Young’s commentary was an extraordinary departure for a federal judge of any era even at a moment when Trump’s policies have been facing stiff resistance in the courts.

Here is a thread existing for the sole purpose of sharing stories about DUMB people you’ve met.

Back in 1993, when I was 11/12 years old, I was volunteering at my school in the summer as an assistant to one of the teachers who was teaching a class of younger kids. However, the class included an 11 year-old girl (I’ll call her Emma) who was significantly older than the other kids in the class.

One day, the teacher gave the kids an assignment to pick an animal who was endangered, give a presentation about the animal, and why they felt sorry for the animal. Well, most of the kids picked forest animals who were dying because of deforestation and they’d say, “I feel sorry for this animal because its home is being chopped down.”

Finally, it was Emma’s turn. She picked the polar bear. And she said in her presentation, “I feel sorry for the polar bear because its home is being chopped down….”

In generations past people dealt with unbelievable hardships and agony. Slavery, forced marriages, starvation, genocide, endless wars, women trapped in abusive marriages, being murdered for being gay.

How did we go from that to a modern comfortable world where people whine because their made up gender isn’t being affirmed or they are fat and gross and people aren’t feeding into their delusions of hotness?

I met a guy in a gay club tonight, we kissed, then he said he was working tomorrow. I didn't ask where he worked, why wud I? So we chatted more, kissed more and it turned out he was an athlete. The sport he worked in was the sport my friend worked in, who committed suicide last year. So, I ask this guy if he knew my friend and not only did he know him, they were dating And he cud fill in a lot of blanks for me. Then he told me today was in fact the anniversary of my friends death. He answered a lot of questions for me.

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?

I had a very acrimonious breakup with a partner many years ago. He dumped me on Valentine's Day, then quickly hooked up with someone else, which left me devastated for a long time.

He has a pretty elusive online presence, but a couple of days ago, I thought I'd look him and try and find out his whereabouts. I came across a YouTube video where he was a speaker on a panel. It took me a few minutes to recognize him. He's gotten old and gray and fat and I kind of liked that, especially since he always used to make such a big deal about what great shape he was in.

There better be lots and lots of nudies!

Not enough love for this veteran out gay Canadian figure skater. I remember howls of outrage from the frau contingent back in the day when we said he was gay.

This guy started showing up in my social media and captivated me. He's a Scottish farmer with three working border collies — Storm, Echo, and Kate — that are total dollfaces and love their job. And they're scary smart. I'd hate to see what they'd do if they were bored.

Some of the videos are just showing the dogs running through the beautiful Scottish hills and others demonstrating their working styles. Sean also answers questions about shepherding, how to train dogs, and all sorts of other things.

It's a wonderful break from the bleakness that is politics. Anyone else a fan of Sean and his dogs?

I think he is so funny, but the BF said he is a racist homophobic maga idiot......any verificata ? I can't find anything on line - I would be so sad to hear that is true as I think he is so funny and seems kind. IDK - I guess it doesn't matter, they all hate us anyway.

OMG they’ve all aged!

Bobby is a GROWN MAN!

That ho been quiet these past 2 years. I’m surprised.

I'm watching it for the first time and largely enjoy it except for two things...

One is Sugar. Why is this woman so annoying? Also, the family dynamics do not seem fucked up Italian American at all. I am Italian American and there is none of the guilt or sense of sacrifice for the men that I'd expect to see. It's more like a version of the family in Six Feet Under.

Christopher Guest wants to kill himself.

My rescue dog sneaks into the shower just to sniff around and enjoy the aroma.

The cute little septuagenarian signs autographs and opens the aforementioned trading cards. At Fanboy Expo in Knoxville, Tennessee.

We get another shot of Jenilee Harrison's terrible cosmetic surgery after @ 1:30. And Priscilla Barnes also looks weird. Joyce looks great, though.

But MAGA told me that America was a crime-filled hellhole with migrants killing people left and right...

I’ve met 3 people in life who couldn’t remember right from left. Otherwise they seemed normal.

Do you know any?

Rare hermaphrodite kitten.

Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt announced the new policy during her first press briefing Tuesday.

U$C alumni thank you for your attention to this matter.

This guy is a devout Jew, an avowed Zionist, one of the most powerful and prominent figures in the Pro-Israel lobby in the U.S. This man, the President of J-Street, is now saying Israel is committing genocide. I suppose our resident zios will now tell us how he's actually an undercover agent for Hamas.

Wow, the tide really is changing.

I guess it's too bad that tens of thousands had to be slaughtered for this to happen.

We hear that Barbra Streisand made a generous surprise donation to the Hampton Synagogue in Westhampton Beach as a tribute to her longtime communications whiz, Ken Sunshine.

The EGOT legend made the gift to celebrate 33 years with Sunshine, a member of the congregation.

The Hamptons holy spot is known as a must-stop for campaigning politicos of all parties, and visitors have included Eric Adams, Hillary Clinton, Andrew Cuomo, Marco Rubio and Lindsey Graham.

Sunshine quipped: “Our company used to be the House that Babs and Bill built. Bill Clinton was [the] second client when we started. Then this Leo guy came along, then later Lin-Manuel. But it started with Babs.”

(For those living under a rock, he’s of course referring to Leonardo DiCaprio and Lin-Manuel Miranda!)

🔥🌹😜😭 I be fucking these white boys up.

Is anybody watching?

Sadly, it's kind of a shitshow. The return of Miss Skye Blakely is about the only interesting thing happening on the women's side of things.

Tonight, they decice which little homosexual boys make up the US Men's World Team.

Actors Max Parker and Kris Mochrie, who play brothers Luke and Lee Posner on the hit British soap Emmerdale, are dating.

Neither Parker nor Mochrie have officially confirmed the dating rumors,

There is a position that has just opened up at my workplace and a they/them pronoun nazi has applied. The rest of us are hoping they aren't hired because we don't want the hassle. If you were hiring, would you dump any CVs with preferred pronouns listed straight into the trash?

Do you agree with that?

Billy Crystal. Conan. Seinfeld. Mike J Fox...Who else??

I know that the story was workshopped from a bunch of dancers who were auditioning for an early 70s revival of "Knickerbocker Holiday" that never happened. But some of the characters in the show seem very much based on the people who played them. For example, Connie is obviously based on Baayork Lee, the great short dancer of Asian heritage who originally played her, and I know Pamela Blair really did get lots of plastic surgery to advance her career, like her character Val did in "Dance Ten, Looks Three".

But does the story of Cassie coincide with the story of Donna McKechnie? Was (is?) Kelly Bishop really a sour and pill-popping bitch like Sheila? Did Priscilla Lopex really feel nothing when her drama teacher died, like Morales?

You may continue.

According to a DailyMail report, Stern might make a move to a streaming platform, like Netflix or HBO Max, and insists “All this unknown is music to Howard’s ears.

I'm very happy to see it come back. I think it's the best work James Gunn has done--it's very witty and fun.

It's one of the few superhero shows to suggest superheroes actually have sex, and it even implies that Peacemaker (John cena) is bisexual. There's a scene in the first season where he wakes up in bed with both a woman and the crazy anti-hero Vigilante next to him, who basically worships him (and is played by the adorable Freddie Stroma).

Armie Hammer claims he used to smoke 15-20 joints daily

Let's discuss the WWII epic Saving Private Ryan.

The Steven Spielberg war film follows a group of soldiers on a mission to locate and bring home Private James Ryan.

A passenger was “sliced open” after a water slide broke on the Icon of the Seas cruise ship.

The male passenger reportedly received lacerations to his leg and back when a section of the Frightening Bolt slide cracked on Thursday, creating a jagged edge.

Footage shows water gushing through the gaping hole in the slide as terrified passengers demand that the crew shut it down.

The passenger did not fall through the hole but received severe cuts as he sped over the broken edge. He received medical attention on board and is reportedly in a stable condition.

Anarcho-communist/anarcho-capitalist Dylan recounts quite an embellished life history and expounds on his "radical" political takes, including not voting because the system is rigged - on FYpod, the Bullwark's attempt to cater to the young ins. Dylan's Onlyfans is conspicuously abset from the convo.

PS - Bisexual Kasky never fails to mention his ex-girlfriends but never boyfriends...Make of that what you will...

PPS - The thumbnail for the youtube video says "Young Morons?" Were they trolling poor Dylan???

The Turkish Chanel store that refused to let Jennifer Lopez shop there is riddled with bad reviews online. The high-end luxury store located in Istanbul’s Istinye Park has a low rating of 2.9 out of 5 on Google. Most of the complaints stem from customers fuming over the poor treatment they received from security.

Lopez, like many former disgruntled customers, was turned away at the door by security, but the A-lister reportedly took the snub in stride, responding, “OK, no problem.”

Local news outlet Turkiye Today reported that when other employees realized it was Lopez, 56, who had been denied, they tried to get the pop star back into their shop but she declined. Instead, the “Hustlers” star reportedly went on a shopping spree at nearby Celine and Beymen stores, where she allegedly spent tens of thousands of dollars.

Lopez was in Istanbul for part of her 19-stop summer tour, “Up All Night.”

Fascism is here.

What is the point of being in Group 1 if half the fricking plane has boarded during pre-boarding? I don't believe all of those people are disabled. If you're not in a wheelchair or on crutches, board in Groups 3-6. Fuck the parents with small children. Why should military personnel get special boarding privileges? They're just the fuck ups in high school who couldn't get into the police academy or the fire department.

I sense it. 🤔, even through the screen. I also forgot how hilarious Mario is.

Disable links.

He said in his autobiography that he had never liked her.

Where the fuck did these stupid terms come from and why do I keep seeing them? Have we stopped saying "killed" or "murdered"?

Come on, King of the Jews.

For every 20 positions, there’s one qualified candidate, says one manufacturing chief executive.

President Trump’s pledge to revive American manufacturing is running into the stubborn obstacle of demographic reality.

The pool of blue-collar workers who are able and willing to perform tasks on a factory floor in the United States is shrinking. As baby boomers retire, few young people are lining up to take their place. About 400,000 manufacturing jobs are currently unfilled, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics — a shortfall that will surely grow if companies are forced to rely less on manufacturing overseas and build more factories in the United States, experts say.

Difficulty attracting and retaining a quality work force has been consistently cited as a “top primary challenge” by American manufacturers since 2017, said Victoria Bloom, the chief economist at the National Association of Manufacturers, which produces a quarterly survey. Only recently has the issue slipped down on the list of challenges, superseded by trade-related uncertainty and increased raw material costs due to tariffs, Ms. Bloom said.

But the scarcity of skilled blue-collar workers remains a long-term problem, according to Ron Hetrick, an economist with Lightcast, a company that provides labor data to universities and industry.

“We spent three generations telling everybody that if they didn’t go to college, they are a loser,” he said. “Now we are paying for it. We still need people to use their hands.”

The hiring challenges faced by American factories are multifaceted.

The president’s crackdown on immigration, which includes attempts to revoke deportation protections for migrants from troubled countries, may eliminate workers who could have filled those jobs.

Many Americans aren’t interested in factory jobs because they often do not pay enough to lure workers away from service jobs that may have more flexible schedules or more comfortable working environments.

For some companies, remaining globally competitive involves the use of sophisticated equipment that requires employees to have extensive training and familiarity with software. And employers cannot simply hire people right out of high school without providing specialized training programs to bring them up to speed. That wasn’t the case in the heyday of American manufacturing.

Attracting motivated young people to manufacturing careers is also a challenge when high school guidance counselors are still judged by how many students go on to college.

Rosie O’Donnell claims ABC is canceling it to make Trump happy.

GADSDEN, Ala. (WBRC) - A dead baby under the age of 3 was found inside a hearse August 9 at the West Gadsden Funeral Home.

Gadsden Police officers say they are investigating this as a homicide. The baby was not in a casket. Authorities confirm the baby was a girl.

The funeral home owner says employees were returning from a separate call when someone thought they saw a doll in the hearse, but when they opened the door they realized it was a human baby.

The coroner and Gadsden Police are on the scene.

We will update this story when more information becomes available.

This story has never stopped haunting me since I first read about it in, of all things, my mom’s “Good Housekeeping”. It was maybe a year after the incident and the TV movie was still a year and a half away.

I think it’s more horrifying than the disappearance of Etan Patz because of only finding Adam’s head. Also, Adam was only a few years younger than I was.

In the years since, I’ve heard various “truths” that people spout like Reve Walsh left Adam alone longer than seven minutes, that she was meeting a lover, that the killing was planned as a revenge plot, etc.

Who remembers poor Adam?

Great interview discussing her career

And I finally get to hear dish on It's a Living!

Elder gays, speak out!

I just bet a lot of you would.

The U.S. Air Force said Thursday it would deny all transgender service members who have served between 15 and 18 years the option to retire early and would instead separate them without retirement benefits. One Air Force sergeant said he was “betrayed and devastated" by the move.

The move means that transgender service members will now be faced with the choice of either taking a lump-sum separation payment offered to junior troops or be removed from the service.

An Air Force spokesperson told The Associated Press that “although service members with 15 to 18 years of honorable service were permitted to apply for an exception to policy, none of the exceptions to policy were approved.”

[quote]In May and June of last year, Canadians imported $34 million and $32 million worth of wine from the U.S., respectively. In May of 2025, that number fell to a staggering $961,084, while June was an equally paltry $1 million. If this level of trade activity persists through the end of the year, American winemakers may lose an additional $240 million.

Keep in mind that Canada isn’t the only country now boycotting U.S. wines and spirits.

It's not 1979, but ABBA is bewitching a whole new generation with its disco magic.

The iconic Swedish pop group, beloved for its infectious blend of Europop and danceable grooves, has made Spotify history with its late-'70s hit "Gimme! Gimme! Gimme! (A Man After Midnight)."

The song, cowritten and coproduced by members Benny Andersson and Björn Ulvaeus, entered Spotify's Billions Club on Sunday, July 20, after surpassing one billion streams on the music platform, Spotify exclusively confirmed to USA TODAY.

Screens from tomorrow’s episode. I really hope they just hammer these fuckers nonstop.

For years a group of Hungarian women used arsenic to poison husbands, elderly relatives, and other nuisances

A small village in central Hungary called Nagyrev was visited by a strange woman in 1911. Presenting herself as a midwife, the woman went to work in the village. She was married, but her husband didn’t accompany her, nor did he ever appear in Nagyrev. The woman never properly explained his absence.

She went by the name of Júlia Fazekas; however, it seems that she borrowed the name of her absent husband, Julius. The question of her real identity, as well as her past, remain a mystery to this day.

Fazekas earned a reputation for performing abortions, conducting operations on pregnant women despite the fact that the procedure wasn’t legal at the time. She was summoned to court and imprisoned 10 times for her actions, but was always acquitted by judges who turned a blind eye, due to the dire financial situation in the rural areas of Austro-Hungary, just a few years prior to the First World War.

Unwanted pregnancy didn’t fit into to the Hungarian custom of arranged marriages, and divorce was not allowed among the traditionally Catholic population. It has to be said that, although a lot of arranged marriages led to a comfortable and happy domestic life, there were cases in which a husband was in some way abusive, and the wife had to endure it. Continued next post.

What do we think? A Marriott patio?

I mean, of course!

I’m considering buying a bread maker. Store bread not healthy (salt/sugar) and too expensive in my area-$7per loaf! Making bread from scratch is getting to be too much all around as I’m older now. Apparently some bread makers also make quick breads? Thanks.

WTF were they thinking? Making everyone excited thinking the cookies are here and it’s fucking popcorn

The person behind me did exactly the same thing (approached them when it looked like they had cookies, then walked away)

But this one only sticks acorns in its own mouth pouches.

I know we are all morally stained by the what the government is going in our collective names, but we are NOT all okay with it.

First he has on Charlie Kirk - who his 13-year-old just loves! What kind of parent, let alone an allegedly liberal top politician, is encouraging an impressionable kid of that age to follow Charlie fucking Kirk?

[quote] Perhaps most bizarrely, Newsom repeatedly mentioned how his 13-year-old son is a fan of Kirk. He said the teen had tried to skip school and stick around the Newsom house, where the episode was taped, in hopes of meeting the conservative influencer. With young people, “you’re making a damn dent,” Newsom told Kirk admiringly.

Ok, you might say, but it's important to have a conversation to understand why Kirk is so appealing to Gen Z, in order to win them back.

Then he drags 82-year-old "shock jock" Michael Savage, of all people, out of the mothballs for episode 2...for what exactly? For whom is that old prick even remotely relevant now?

The latest episode is with Nazi dirtbag Steve Bannon. Again I ask...why is this necessary? Who thinks this is good optics, especially at a time when people already are suffering thanks to these fucking fascist enablers? He is doing all this while still governor of California. He couldn't wait to launch another shitty bro podcast until his term was up?

Anybody else hate the IG guys who seemed to have a very gay page but then then you go on OF and they’re just fucking women?

I’m not talking the guys who don’t comment on it but the ones who actively court gay guys with shots of them flirting with other guys in Speedos on the beach etc and then … surprise.

Luigi Mangione's confidential, 120-page medical history was accidentally emailed to his New York prosecutors not once, but twice — first by Aetna and then by his own defense lawyers, according to a new court filing.

Prosecutors took "appropriate measures" both times, forwarding the confidential health records to the judge and deleting their own copy, the lead assistant district attorney, Joel Seidemann, wrote in revealing what he described as a double-snafu on Friday.

"Mistakes do occur," Seidemann wrote in his three-page filing — meaning on the part of defense lawyers and Aetna, but not himself.

Looking pretty damn good at 52. Pretty nice dick, too.

Discuss.

His family made the most cringeworthy statement: "It was Chase's own decision to enter Heaven."

She looks great!

I started this thread after the recent Loni Anderson thread, but here we are. Dinah was a great lady, and great talk show hostess. I really miss her.

I wish that there was more information and updates on him.

“Deep state” fixture dies at 101.

What went wrong.

Peace prize for Trump, the pedo/rapist, ruining his own country?

How about Russia continuing to bomb Ukraine that Trump said he would end on day one.

How about Israel committing genocide on innocent Palestinians and having babies and children die in their mothers' arms?

Nobel Peace Prize/ Fuck NO!

I know it predates the personal computer, with secretaries and housewives championed for their abilities in prior decades, but it definitely got worse in the internet age. We're moving into a new age where people mindlessly engage with and follow the orders of an app as they multi-task.

Anyone see any signs of resistance to the constant valorization and mythologizing of "efficiency?"

Do you like them? What did they cost you?

I’d like to get some, but I grind my teeth (lightly) and my dentist insists I’d need to wear a night guard for the rest of my life. No thanks on that.

Also, has anyone gotten them in Turkey or Mexico?

I want the elegant, hollywood kind. Not the obvious, plastic-looking MAGA / west virginia kind.

What's your favorite Neil Young song

The Incorruptible. I don't know who that would be right now. Someone with zero patience and tolerance for corruption. Faux News would be less a problem than you think. With Rupert and Lachlan executed for Treason and the government seizing Fox under the Civil Asset Forfeiture laws, it could become a real news outlet with the government's point of view. Obviously the Supreme Court 6 would need to b impeached and removed and replaced by people who would overturn Citizen United, corporate psersonhood, religious invasion of the secular sphere and all lthe rest of the illiterate corrupt nonsense we've been subjected to over the l ast forty years.

Christina Applegate has been hospitalized for a kidney infection, which has since spread to both kidneys, causing her to be hospitalized with "so much pain" she said she's "screaming."

The Married... With Children alum, 53, recorded the Tuesday, Aug. 5, episode of MeSsy, the podcast she co-hosts with Jamie-Lynn Sigler, from an L.A. hospital as she struggled with severe pain that made her feel like her appendix was bursting.

“I’m home and have been treated for the kidney infection," Applegate said in a statement to PEOPLE, via her representative, Tuesday afternoon. "As far as my ongoing stomach thing, it’s a work in progress. I was there 7 days."

While in Europe visiting family, Applegate explained to Sigler that she began to feel unwell. On the flight back, however, she decided to go straight to the hospital, explaining she didn’t want to wake up at 3 a.m. and need to run to the emergency room.

“I'm like, I wanna be admitted,” Applegate said, sharing her frustration with treatment during her multiple sclerosis struggle.

She continued, “I'm staying here because I want answers. I want every test that you can possibly think of or ones that you haven't even thought of, and I want them done.”

Is it any good? I think it will be my chores/laundry day flick today?

The film never had an American distributor (was the height of MeToo)

This is an interesting interview. Sounds like two of her kids got mixed up in the drug scene and she took the tough love approach.

[quote] I mean, I went out to look for my son at one point and there were five other kids sleeping under a park bench in the middle of December. We thought he would be out there for two nights and he was out there for weeks. Finally, I got a phone call and I said, “Are you ready to get some help for this?” and when he said he was ready, we went and got him.

Even if she wasn’t, her death is being celebrated as such in certain circles. She wasn’t just “some executive” at Blackstone. She was the CEO of their real estate buying group, BREIT, with a 53 billion portfolio. They buy up tons of homes in certain markets, outbidding regular folks and driving up rental prices. Some could say she was masterminding the dismantling of the American real estate dream for many just as Brian Thompson was responsible for the health related deaths of many Americans. But she is painted as just an employee and mom of two.

The Asian American Performers Action Coalition is unhappy that Darren Criss will be replaced by an actor who is not even half Asian. They feel that since the show originated in Korea the robot roles should be played by Asian actors only.

More excitement to come I’m sure! I predict another shocking young star death like Liam Payne

Is it time to admit Lou Pearlman may have actually been uniquely talented?

Brad's brood, biological and adopted, must be grieving at the loss of their grandmother to whom they were certainly close.

[quote] Brad Pitt‘s mom, Jane Etta Pitt, has sadly passed away. She was 84 years old.

The 61-year-old actor’s niece Sydney revealed the news in a post on Instagram, writing, “My sweet Grammy, Jane Etta, we were not ready for you to go yet but knowing you are finally free to sing, dance, and paint again makes it a tad easier.”

[quote] TMS is reporting that she passed in the past day or so, and Brad was incredibly close with her. He did walk the red carpet with her in the past, though his parents did keep out of the spotlight.

[quote] Our thoughts are with the Pitt family as they mourn this loss. RIP.

What type of character would she play? What would the storyline be? Can’t believe she never guest starred on either show.

Lauren showed Raskin a great deal of kindness while he was undergoing chemo. Their families spent New Year's together.

I hate her but this does give me some hope for our country.

Hi, these are camels and you will love them.

Please find me something new that involves dollfaces in non-dangerous situations.

I don’t want to see some cloudy-eyed kitten saved by a moo. I always think they made the illness happen for the video.

No, I want happy oblivious pets in this horrible world.

Please share. It can be old.

Sometimes I think he's sexy as fuck, and other times I think he's so ugly I can't bear it.

What say you, DL'ers?

This salty billionaire queen is a fixture on the Sunday chat show circuit, known as much for his pursed-lip zingers as he is for his utterly heartless views on poor people and the economy.

He's the second openly-gay person confirmed to a cabinet post, but the gays don't claim this one and his personal life never comes up. Trump probably doesn't even know about it.

Any thoughts on Barry Bostwick's evil twin?

I have to have a root canal and my dentist referred me to a specialist to do it. I called to make an appointment and was told "Just so you know it will require a scan that is not covered by insurance." I pressed the person on the phone, saying, "You are telling me I need to have a scan, to have the necessary procedure, but it is not covered by insurance?" She hemmed and hawed saying she was not sure. I asked her how much the scan was and she said 240 dollars. I asked again, why would I need a scan that is not covered to get a covered procedure? She coudl not answer so I asked them to call me back when they could tell me. What the fuck is this nonsense?

I guess all of them need money.

I'm the "heartland" and I'm the neverending entitlement.
