Jones is in Waking Life and A Scanner Darkly.Quoting Sycophant (view post)
Waking Life was how I discovered Alex Jones. I thought he was just some harmless Austin oddity. It's been weird seeing him rise to prominence over the years, knowing he and Linklater are still tight. I believe Linklater has mostly avoided answering whether or not he supports Jones' lunacy. He always just says he's a respected friend.

Thats still WAY too much. I wish I'd watched Everybody Wants Some before learning this. I'm baffled.
This is amazing.

I can't stop thinking about how good this tweet is.

Holy fucking shit. White House has banned CNN, Buzzfeed, Politico, NY Times, and LA Times from attending Sean Spicer's press briefing today.
AP and Time boycotted the briefing in solidarity.
Movie Theater DiaryQuoting Donald Glover
Yeah, pretty soon it's gonna be Fox, Breitbart, and Infowars in those briefings, and no-one else.

The lengths he is going to in order to discredit the media ... in my mind, it means he has done something extremely illegal that he believes is in danger of coming out. He may as well be saying 'warmer ... warmer ... warmer.'

I wonder if Der Leader knows those briefings are tradition, not law? That he could boot the entire WHPC out of the White House and nobody could do a damn thing about it?
The Guardian and BBC were also banned.Quoting number8 (view post)
Along with AP and Time, USA Today also dropped out in solidarity, and the Wall Street Journal says it won't attend future events should this continue.
Probably no big deal.
All right, time to send Teen Vogue in there.

Lauren Duca started a new column today. It's called "Thigh-High Politics."
As most of you know by now, I'm not a very opinionated person and had zero reaction---none at all---when I heard about it.
You can't make this shit up.

Lying is a reflex for Trump. It's second nature. I wonder if even he knows what is true anymore. It's the Rashomon presidency.

Can't wait for the reveal that he pays taxes.
Someone buy this man a cigar.Quoting Dukefrukem (view post)
[Seriously, I get that Maddow had to make this a thing, because it is the first trickle of Rappin' Donny's taxes, but there's nothing too meaningful you can glean from a 1040.]
So he paid $38 million on $150 income in 2005.
Think about that for a second. Paying $38 million in taxes alone.
Lower than what I pay.
Movie Theater DiaryQuoting Donald Glover
Issue is, he claimed deductions on the order of $100 million to get down to paying a 25% tax rate. I don't blame him for that, because if the loopholes are there, they're going to get exploited. (I'd prefer a loophole free system where the issue doesn't come up, but y'know.) Other issue is it highlights the disparity between his taxes with (25%) and without (4%) the alternative minimum tax, which he's promised to abolish.Quoting Dukefrukem (view post)
Something pretty funny as I was watching the reveal live last night was that when Maddow was still doing the background runup, we were anticipating it to be a whole load of nothing and said, "What are the chances that Trump sent it to the journalist himself? He probably did, right?"
Then she brought Johnston out, and the first thing he said to her was that he thinks it's likely that Trump sent it to him. Made me laugh.
What a world.
