@scottderrickson @twisted_twins More to the point @scottderrickson his life and memory live on in you. You did what you could. Don’t carry this burden alone.

The Oscars In Memoriam ignored him but I cannot. He was my friend. I put him in five films. In early January I buried James “PJ” Ransone after he committed suicide… He was a complex, funny, talented, and undeniably reckless person. He was wildly alive and deeply loved. I know he said some infuriating things online, but the last time I saw him, he cried with regret for all of that. “I didn’t mean to hurt anyone’s feelings,” he said. Please don’t trash him here. He is dearly missed.

@scottderrickson @twisted_twins He will be missed and his talent is a loss to us all. RIP Officer So and So/ Eddie Casbrack

@kiki_daire Also, completely off topic, I’m a huge fan of your work. Been following you (not in a stalker way) for years. lol.

@PaddedRoomPod Besides…I don’t watch a Super Bowl half time show for the statement…I wanna enjoy the show and be entertained

Can we please take the Super Bowl show away from Apple Music and Jayz next year? Sooooo boring!!!

@kiki_daire There was a time when it was actually about music and showmanship. These days, I feel like it’s all about political posturing and self aggrandizement!!

@EveLaurence How was your day, Eve?

@ElonMuskOde Yes please

@jk_rowling More to the point. Oliver, as delightful as a person as I’m sure he is, has a status quo to meet. If there’s one thing I’ve come to understand over the last year or so, it’s that everyone has a job and wants to keep it.

Nothing about this feels good, because John Oliver generously gave his time for my charity Lumos and I liked him very much when I met him, but God knows, if you ever need an example of motivated reasoning and confirmation bias, this video's for you. An undoubtedly intelligent person spouts absolute bullshit to support something he wants to be true, but isn't. According to the UN, female athletes have lost nearly 900 medals to trans-identified men competing against them in women’s sporting categories. Girls have been ousted from teams to make way for boys. Women have suffered serious injury playing against trans-identified men (see Payton McNabb, mentioned below). Again and again I've come up against men who argue exactly what Oliver does here, using the very same talking points. With a straight face, the 'believe the science' guys will say 'actually, we don't yet have enough data to say whether men and boys are stronger and faster than women and girls'. The 'be kind' crew can't see what the issue is. 'Why are you bothered, it only affects a tiny minority of females?' To prove to their progressive credentials - and (coincidentally, I'm sure) indemnify themselves against repercussions from cultural elites in the media, academia and publishing who've showed themselves more than ready to kick people to the kerb for failing to mouth the approved mantras - people with a lot to lose are currently prepared to make idiots of themselves. They'll stare unabashedly into a camera and insist that their audiences' eyeballs are incapable of seeing what's plain as day, and that there's something wrong with the great unwashed for believing that girls are being robbed of opportunities and put at physical risk. If you want to tell the world you're happy to watch females suffer injury, humiliation and the loss of sporting opportunities to bolster an elitist post-modern ideology embraced by a minute fraction of the world's population, fair enough; you're allowed your opinion. But if you've just told girls they don't deserve fair sport, maybe rethink using all too real and common sexual predation against young women as a punchline for your 'edgy' closing joke.

@jk_rowling So a couple of thoughts on this. First and foremost @jk_rowling, I hate to say it but I’m not a fan of your writing. However via X I have found new found a very deep respect for you as a person. Your courage in these times is legendary. . .

@Factschaser Wow! Replying “facts” and “cope” must make you right! Well played sir!

A record number of high IQ folks are fleeing the failed states of Texas and Florida and heading to New York, DC, Boston
