In France, the left coalition comes in first, Macron second, the far-right third. The best way to defeat fascism is not centrism, it’s a strong left.

FRESH, one of the most underrated movies of the 90s, is leaving Netflix soon. It's an excellent YOJIMBO variant, one of the last Samuel L. Jackson before he was SAMUEL L. JACKSON performances, and Sean Nelson shoulda made it bigger. Catch it while you can. www.netflix.com/title/524745

1) Polls have generally been favorable to Biden since the debate 2) liberals have been outperforming polls consistently, including the US since Dobbs 3) the media desperately wants a right wing theocracy because their ratings/subscriptions jumped the last time Trump was elected

Breaking news: The first projections after polls closed in France’s legislative election put a leftist alliance in the lead, as the populist, anti-immigration far right falls behind and performs far below expectations.

France election live updates: Left-wing bloc leads in results projectionswww.washingtonpost.com The populist, anti-immigration National Rally party had been hoping to install France’s first far-right government since World War II, with 28-year-old Jordan Bardella as prime minister.

The worst thing about BACK TO THE FUTURE II (which I love) is that it always inspires me to watch BACK TO THE FUTURE III (which is BACK TO THE FUTURE III).

Can't fuck with a game that is extended with a last-minute goal, then ended with a last-last-minute goal.

In high-level football/soccer, every player should be given a punch card. If you get five punches, for fouls you committed but did not bitch and moan about, you get a free sno cone.

We know we don't have much time left so we've been spending a lot of time with America for its last birthday. Plenty of hugs, taking pictures. My niece is in film school, and got the camera out and interviewed it about what it was like growing up, just trying to record memories while we have them.

Poll taken at the absolute worst possible moment for Biden shows a statistical dead heat. This was his nadir, he can only go up from here. And polls have been underestimating Democratic performance since Roe was overturned. Obviously, he must drop out of the race. www.surveyusa.com/client/PollR...

Update: Lee Kindlon, the challenger, has claimed victory. He leads by 10%. Soares, the incumbent, has not conceded. I believe some votes remain, likely not a lot.
