@ColeSandick Post-Trump, all negative campaigning is an inoculation opportunity. Get voters bored of the bad stuff. There is nothing Mills has that Republicans won't have in the fall so let her unload the cannons.v

If Mills was crushing Platner in every poll and outperforming him against Collins there’d be huge pressure on Platner to drop out for the sake of unity/focusing on November. By continuing to smear Platner the Dems risk damaging their likely nominee in a critical Senate race.

@RealPizzaGamer My argument isnt that the president needs to be a podcast bro. Its that we'll never get a Kamala elected if performative masculinity dudes don't see some D's out there they can identify with. Just got a show there are a few on the team. Our best one went crazy unfortunately

@EricMGarcia It's great there are so many terrific women. THERE. ARE. NO. MEN. FOR. BROS. TO. LOOK. UP. TO. IN. THE. PARTY. Or in media. I dont care if women make up 70% of who we elect, without some blue collar bros with a high profile, the party will continue to struggle with branding.

@RealPizzaGamer Kelly is great. He's 62 and appealing to MSNBC Democrats. It's cool he went to space. He's a segment guy. Not sure he'd know how to hang on a podcast for several hours. Also missing touch of "reckless" quality that personifies male movie stars, B.Clinton, Biden, GWB, Trump.

@TasticFlap @speechboy71 thanks to algorithms (and Israel) young people have spent 3 years watching footage of maimed and dead children--several times per day. Older people/elected officials don't see that. These young people are traumatized. It's no longer a normal issue to them.
English
@speechboy71 None of it matters if Dems can't figure out a way forward on Israel. It's THE wedge issue of all wedge issues and it's only getting worse

A lot of Dems don't want to hear this, but if Harris runs in '28, her edge with Black voters will be very difficult for any other Democratic candidate to overcome.
Black voters pick the Democratic nominee -- happened in '08, '16, and '20.

@EricMGarcia The party and its barely existent media apparatus are full of soft, thoughtful, intelligent men. Great. That's who I want writing laws. We will continue to lose until we stack the team with a few Fettermans and Platners (examples of types, not the individuals necessarily).

The same night Kamala Harris lost, a Jewish woman won a Senate seat in Michigan and a lesbian won re-election in Wisconsin. You know who lost re-election, the old white Catholic guy in Pennsylvania named Bob Casey.

Out of the Top 9 best Democratic candidates in remotely competitive 2024 U.S. House races, NONE of them were White men. We need to put to bed the idea that only White men can win elections for Democrats, the data just doesn’t support it at all.

@electionsjoe Going back to swiftboating, this is a continuation of "Republicans lie and we will correct the record. We will respond immediately with truth!" It does not work. I do appreciate them putting together a video of anything, as D's have virtually no industrial pipeline of content.
English
@WalshFreedom D's are stuck. Younger people are traumatized from watching horrific images of children mangled by war. Algorithms deliver images around the clock for three years and still do. It changed them. This is not an "issue" that can be negotiated normally anymore.

As a very new Democrat, I am so damn concerned about this. The Democratic Party will not win nationally and will not win in battleground states if they abandon their support for Israel.

Jews are slowly coming to the realization that the Democratic Party to which they have been eternally loyal, actually wants the existence of Israel to come to an end. jewishjournal.com/commentary/opi…

@Variety Who's the customer exactly? Sounds like two totally different products. One is a script development tool (which largely would be paid for by unrepresented screenwriters still learning the craft), the other is production info that would only be helpful after packaging.

Quilty, a new AI platform designed to help the entertainment industry make smarter financial and creative decisions, has launched:
• The platform offers script analysis, packaging suggestions and production planning tools
• Users will receive data on comparable projects, talent, tax incentives in potential shooting locations, the festival scene and the distribution landscape
• The technology will also offer crystal ball predictions about how a movie will do at the box office, as well as its cultural resonance
“We can tell you the peak time to make and release a film,” says co-founder Daniel Wood says. “We want to empower the creator.”

@Super70sSports RT is lazy about compiling reviews on older movies. Also, most of the reviews were for local papers/magazines that never got online or if they did, shut down before RT became a big thing. This movie is well remembered tho because it appealed to kids and played endlessly on HBO.

The Toy is rated 3% fresh by critics on Rotten Tomatoes. I say no movie that stars Jackie Gleason and Richard Pryor can possibly be bad, you snobby film school motherfuckers.

@DaniellaMazzio I just recorded a podcast on how Friedkin revisited the themes here in his first music video, Self Control. In Cruising, he asks if identity shifts through experience/environment. In the music video, Friedkin suggests identity doesn't exist at all.

I genuinely don't know where most people land on this one but imo this one gets a full "what a picture" from me

@ZacharyDonnini The Democratic party has a complete absence of prominent men with certain traits that appeal to rural, blue collar men. They don't exist in media speaking on behalf of the party. It has created a branding crisis over past 16 years. We need at least a few.

AXIOS: Some top Democrats are quietly debating a fraught question: whether the party's best bet for winning back the presidency in 2028 is to nominate a man — perhaps a straight, White, Christian man. Former first lady Michelle Obama fueled such talk recently, saying the U.S. is "not ready for a woman." Democratic strategists have put it bluntly, with several saying a version of "It has to be a white guy." axios.com/2026/03/29/som…

@ed_dems Because there's nobody to take his place. People don't trip over each other for that job--it sucks. You really have to want to do it. And the few names who would normally challenge him are looking at Presidential runs in 28.

majorly disappointing coming from him
like why are these people so obsessed with supporting a guy who’s 20 points underwater with democrats??

@chopinc33 @_iamblakeley I guess that's why she won in Michigan as a Democrat the same year Trump beat Kamala. That's what they want.
English
@_iamblakeley It always pisses me off to hear a Republican say, “It doesn’t matter if you are a Republican.” Slotkin loves the Republican side, but claims Democrat. So many in the Democratic Party like Slotkin!? Slotkin has always has been transparent Republican lying to herself.

We need a playlist of every phrase that feckless, pathetic, useless Democrats love to use to deflect.
Today’s installment: “we’re gonna have to take a hard look.”
English
@juanitojaramil @_iamblakeley @BenjaminPDixon @krystalball Yeah. And then she went back to being a Senator because she won her seat the same year Trump beat Kamala in Michigan, and Krystal went back to making lots of $$ off telling an audience exactly what they wanted to hear. Everyone wins.
English
English
@_iamblakeley She somehow won Michigan the same year Trump won and Kamala lost. She represented a Trump district in the house and won there too. if you disagree with her, next step is to ask: what does she see that I dont--and what is she hearing from the voters on that issue?"

@BestMovieMom This movie was extremely tedious and absurdly expensive to make. The character doesn't work for American audiencs. And all the progress they made to pull this stuff off is now antiquated and will be done by AI in a few years. So maybe we will see a sequel then :)
English
It’s insane that we still haven’t had a sequel to this masterpiece. What is Peter Jackson doing? He should let someone else direct it if he doesn’t want to do it anymore.

@cynfinite Mad Men is one of those shows where reading recaps can really deepen your appreciation. (I'd read ones written at the time where they dont know what will happen next). there's so much complexity, nuance, history context. worth taking a read after each one!
English
I started Mad Men for the first time last week and I’m already on season 5 and, Jesus.
I understand the hype. It is very good. And also, depressing.

@daveweigel I keep waiting for Jennifer Welch or Kyle Kulinski to have a surprising take or position their audience might not expect. Just "I know a lot of people are saying X today but here's why I think..." It never happens. Ever. They're basically doing left wing Hannity at this point.
