@film_atic @freemometu Hey congrats! Awesome news

The time is NOW. The big announcement that I've have been sitting on is: My film Alex & MOR: A Love Odyssey, has landed a distribution deal with Echelon Studios, Inc. and will be streaming exclusively on Mometu starting April 24th. DOWNLOAD MOMETU NOW!! @freemometu

@CinemaTweets1 I was a set costumer on that and we were losing the light doing Luke’s arm chopping off scene, so I’m literally just off screen underneath him so that when the arm gets chopped off, I can reattach it with magnets and get ready for another quick take. 😆

Anchorman is 22 years old but still holds up incredibly well. I miss this era of comedy. I think studios have put more of their focus on horror films and less focus on comedies like this in the last handful of years. I still hold out hope that comedy will rise again in Cinema.

@SpursNationYo Carter Bryant career game incoming

Will the Spurs win tonight? I want every Spurs fan to comment! 👇

@amythrawat @callmeMaharani Where are you located?

@WanderLutz @callmeMaharani That’s so cool! I have a nature reserve near my place and we get peacocks over at times.

What is a sound or smell that doesn’t exist anymore, but 30 years ago was so common it was considered background noise?

@amythrawat @callmeMaharani I’m in metro Atlanta and we get all kinds of song birds due to our large tree canopy

@Mikeachim A laymen’s geography/geology thread…be still my heart

A while back, I learned something mindblowing about the geological history of the Mediterranean Sea, and I just can't get it out of my head. Now I'm going to make it *your* problem too. Sorry. Hang onto your hat. This gets wild. 1/

@elijahwood @Rodriguez That was a fun summer in Austin, there is no doubt. Happy birthday, Elijah!

@Rodriguez the best memories and thank you, my friend. i’ll never forget you wiping the floor with me on Goldeneye whilst eating a burger. hah!

GREAT TIMES, ELIJAH! Working with you on the Faculty, Spykids 3D, and SIN CITY, created so many great memories. But, I think playing GOLDENEYE on Nintendo 64 in ’98 on the Faculty tops ‘em all! Happy Birthday @elijahwood!

A helpful tip just in case cell towers go down this weekend... If you have an iPhone 14 or newer, you have access to Satellite Texting. During Hurricane Helene, we lost cell signal for weeks, but were able to send a text via satellite to my parents, letting them know we were ok

❄️1. Charge all phones, power banks, tablets, and rechargeable lanterns. ❄️2. Fill vehicle gas tanks in case stations lose power. ❄️3. Get cash in small bills in case card systems go down. ❄️4. Pick up prescriptions and essential medications early. ❄️5. Download movies, books, and maps for offline use. ❄️6. Identify one warm room in the house to “camp out” if power fails. ❄️7. Locate water shut-off valve and breaker box now, not later. ❄️8. Set fridge and freezer to colder settings to hold temperature longer. WATER AND PIPE PROTECTION ❄️9. Drip faucets on exterior walls when temps drop below freezing. ❄️10. Open cabinet doors under sinks to allow warm air circulation. ❄️11. Disconnect garden hoses from outdoor spigots. ❄️12.

FOOD AND KITCHEN PREP ❄️15. Keep 3–5 days of NO-COOK food like peanut butter, tuna, bread, crackers, canned meat, fruit cups, cereal. ❄️16. Have manual can opener available. ❄️17. Buy shelf-stable milk or powdered milk if needed. ❄️18. Freeze a few water bottles to act as freezer “ice packs.” ❄️19. Keep a cooler ready to move fridge food outside if power is out and temps are below freezing. ❄️20. Avoid stocking large amounts of perishables right before the storm. ❄️21. Gather extra blankets, sleeping bags, and warm layers. ❄️22. If using a fireplace, confirm chimney is clear and have dry wood. ❄️23. Never run generators or grills inside garages or homes. ❄️24. Test smoke and carbon-monoxide detectors. ❄️25. Have at least one flashlight per person plus spare batteries. ❄️26. Use battery lanterns instead of candles when possible. ❄️27. Plan to avoid driving once freezing rain begins. ❄️28. Bridges, overpasses, and shaded roads freeze first. ❄️29. Keep in the car: blanket, water, snacks, phone charger, gloves. ❄️30. Replace old wiper blades and top off washer fluid. ❄️31. Park away from large tree limbs when possible. ❄️32. Assume flights and travel may be disrupted. ❄️33. Unplug sensitive electronics to avoid surge damage. ❄️34. Keep one battery radio or weather app for updates. ❄️35. Use surge protectors for TVs and computers. ❄️36. Know where warming centers may be in your area. ❄️37. Have extension cords ready if using a generator outside. ❄️38. Keep refrigerator closed to preserve cold air. ❄️39.

Secure outdoor furniture and lightweight items. ❄️49. Avoid trimming trees during the storm, do it beforehand. ❄️50. Photograph property for insurance before conditions worsen. ❄️51. Do not drive unless absolutely necessary. ❄️52. Assume downed lines are live and dangerous. ❄️53. Use only safe indoor heating methods. ❄️54. Check on neighbors, especially elderly, by phone if possible. ❄️55. Report outages to utility companies rather than 911 unless it’s an emergency. ❄️56. Walk carefully, ice may refreeze overnight. ❄️57. Check pipes for leaks as temperatures rise. ❄️58. Throw out refrigerated food if above 40°F for more than 4 hours. ❄️59. Avoid DIY electrical repairs around downed lines. ❄️60. Be patient, restoring power after ice can take several days. ❄️A quarter inch of ice can bring scattered outages. ❄️Half an inch can cripple travel and power for days. ❄️Ice is more dangerous than snow for the Deep South. @CaptKylePatriot

ANONYMOUS LETTER FROM A MINNESOTA EDUCATOR ON THE GROUND I am a lifelong resident of Minneapolis and an educator who teaches at both a high school and a college here in the city. I have friends, family, colleagues, and students across the political spectrum. I am writing as an American citizen who loves this country and is deeply frightened by what I am witnessing in my city. Before becoming an educator, I worked with Homeland Security in the early 2000s as a theft and fraud investigator for a major insurance company. I had direct exposure to federal law enforcement at that time. What is happening now does not resemble the agencies or officers I knew then. The ICE agents operating here appear poorly trained, are acting with little oversight, and are being encouraged to treat residents as enemies. They are operating with total impunity. That should concern everyone. There is widespread disinformation about what is happening in Minnesota. I am asking people, regardless of politics, to stop relying on national pundits and political talking points and instead look to local reporting and firsthand accounts from people who live here. What is happening is real, ongoing, and deeply disturbing. I am not a protester. I have not attended demonstrations. I am in classrooms and on campuses every day. What follows is what I have personally witnessed, along with what has been consistently reported to me by colleagues, students, parents, and neighbors with a wide range of political beliefs. Here is what I have seen and experienced: - Female friends who are U.S. citizens aggressively restrained, choked, forced into vehicles, and detained. - Native American individuals detained, including citizens and members of sovereign tribal nations. - ICE agents staking out high school and college campuses, then denying their presence to administrators and local law enforcement. - I have been followed for miles after leaving a school parking lot by an ICE agent who only turned away after prolonged tailing. - Emergency sirens at levels I have never experienced living here, including during 9/11, the 2008 Republican National Convention, and the George Floyd uprising. - ICE agents running residential license plates, pulling personal data, and approaching people already knowing their names and addresses. - Agents positioned outside churches, schools, and grocery stores, blocking traffic, yelling at residents, and intimidating EVERYONE, including people who are not protesting. - White residents being offered money or “protection” in exchange for informing on neighbors labeled as non-citizens or “leftist protesters.” - Door-to-door activity in Minneapolis and St. Paul, with local news now running nightly segments on what to do if ICE comes to your door. - School buses rerouted to pick up students at individual homes because children are too afraid to walk. - Parents emailing me asking what will happen to their children if they are detained. - School administrators stated that local police will not intervene if ICE violates rights on private school property without a warrant. - Reports from detainees of no bathroom privacy, including officers watching women use the restroom. - Arrests occurring on highways, with abandoned vehicles left behind, causing multiple accidents. - There are thousands of ICE agents operating here. It feels like an occupation. - Residents have also documented aerial surveillance during enforcement activity, including drones over neighborhoods and public spaces. Community-recorded video shows drones hovering while individuals on the ground are followed or detained. Regardless of stated purpose, the effect is widespread fear, self-censorship, and the feeling of being monitored simply for existing in public. What makes this even more frightening is the complete failure of political leadership. Republican lawmakers from rural Minnesota openly cheer this enforcement without concern for the harm it is causing to Minnesota families, children, and communities. Democratic leaders speak about stopping it in press conferences but are not on the ground and are not backing their words with action. They return to their homes each night while families here live in fear. Politicians and Government officials are playing with people’s lives. I have never been this scared living in Minnesota. Not during past protests. Not during moments of national crisis. The fear now is constant and destabilizing because it is happening in everyday places: churches, schools, grocery stores, neighborhoods, and homes. I do not care what your politics are. This is wrong and should not be happening in America. This is not about border security or state fraud. This is about retribution for being a “blue state,” intimidation, surveillance, and the erosion of basic civil rights in a major American city, carried out openly and without accountability. We are being made an example. We need help. If the government, law enforcement, and politicians will not protect people, then it is up to us to protect each other.

Please share this widely. People are being harmed. Minnesota residents regardless of their politics are terrified and angry. Misinformation only allows this to continue. — Sincerely, An Anonymous Minnesota Educator

@FantasyPros Had Malik, BTJ, and Kamara 🥸

If you drafted one of these guys you probably didn't make the playoffs 😬

@SleeperNFL I went Malik Nabers and BTJ with my first two picks 💩

Who was the WORST pick in fantasy?

@trinodj @swedishousemfia @atrak @ericprydz I’ve been to Ibiza only one time. And only one club. And it was Pacha for SHM, Basement Jaxx, and Steve Angello in ‘08. What a night

Back in 2008, @swedishousemfia had a residency at Pacha in Ibiza, where they invited @atrak as a guest for one of the nights. He made a vlog showing how they lived on the party island for the summer alongside their fellow colleague, @ericprydz

@Neon_on_X @123skely Just came back into LA from six months abroad and the last month in Japan and couldn’t be more true

@123skely The real culture shock happens when you come back from Japan.

As an American, the first time you visit Tokyo is amazing, then after about 2 days you get physically angry, because you realize cities don't actually need to be a total shit-holes, and it costs like 1/0th what you pay.
