Down these mean skeets a man must go who is not himself mean, who is neither tarnished nor afraid.
As long as Trump is denying access to MSNOW, CNN and Politico, the remaining media outlets should push back by ensuring that once a week he has to face a press corps composed entirely of women of color. Just straight-up bait the misogynistic racist motherfucker.

As the old adage goes, "It's easier to beg forgiveness than ask for permission."

But because legal procedure and congressional oversight move so slowly in any case involving his demolition, renovation, construction, and renaming efforts in D.C., Trump's M.O. is "Third option: Go fuck yourself."

PASQUATCH! Because you've got to have a lead before you can blow a lead. #KCvsPIT #FountainsUp

#LSUvsMISS was closer than it needed to be. Certainly Ole Miss has national championship aspirations, but that was their Michigan–Ohio State game. They could go 0-for–the rest of the season now that they've beaten Kiffin and probably say it was worth it.

OK, the 2-run Lowe blast is not optimal, but props to the Pirates for the welding mask being their home run celly. That may be my new favorite thing in baseball. #KCvsPIT

At my niece's soccer match earlier I saw a dad at least a decade and a half my junior repping a Lou Whitaker home jersey in the wild — your periodic reminder that Lou and Tram should have been enshrined together and Lou's absence in Cooperstown remains a traveshamockery. #Tigers #BlessYouBoys

Can anyone in the Trump administration ever truly be cancer-free?
White House Chief of Staff Susie Wiles, who had been receiving treatment for breast cancer, said that she is cancer-free after a recent checkup.

“After a medical appointment at the Mayo Clinic this week, my pathology results came back clear,” Wiles wrote.
Susie Wiles, Trump’s chief of staff, says she is cancer-free
Wiles had continued working at the White House while undergoing treatment.

The sing-songy Farmers Insurance commercial is No. 1 with a bullet for Thing I Hate Most on TV right now. The jingle is what would elevate the charge to AGGRAVATED assault.

The #Chiefs did not fill me with rage and/or existential dread tonight. Kenneth Walker III is ... satisfyingly competent. I will likely watch them next Sunday night. #DENvsKC

The variety of xenomorphs is also a great design/character aspect. Facehuggers, chest bursters, eggs, the queen — we're not merely being jump-scared by their appearance; we're being shown something different each time so we don't become inured to the sight of them. #Aliens #HATM

Another subtle but great dramatic device: Anytime time is mentioned — Bishop's 16-minute ETA; the system countdown announcements — makes the tension even more unbearable. #Aliens #HATM

One comforting aspect of the sci-fi future: In the most fraught circumstances, we'll always be able to rely on duct tape. #Aliens #HATM

Reiser was a stand-up comic who played a prominent role in Barry Levinson's DINER in 1982. Carter Burke was a bold career move that he managed to rebound from the following year when he started a three-season run on the sitcom MY TWO DADS. #Aliens #HATM

When I saw this opening weekend in 1986, I exhaled sharply at the end of the medical lab sequence and realized I had held my breath for at least 3 minutes. #Aliens #HATM

I talk a lot of shit about Cameron as a screenwriter, but the burgeoning romantic tension between Ripley and Hicks demonstrates that he paid attention to a Billy Wilder film at some point. #Aliens #HATM

The most chilling dialogue in the film is consistently delivered by a 7-year-old girl. #Aliens #HATM

It occurs to me watching these patrol scenes that a lot of this comms chatter is probably ADR mixed in post. There's a quality to Apone's commands in particular that sounds dubbed in a way I never really noticed before. #Aliens #HATM

That Bill Paxton established himself as such a strong dramatic actor after breaking through in cartoon dipshit roles like Pvt. Hudson here and Chet from WEIRD SCIENCE is a testament to how great he was and how missed he is. #Aliens #HATM

Chekhov's Freight Loader: Establish Ripley's profiency in Act 1 as foreshadowing to the Act 3 showdown. #Aliens #HATM

"We also have Ripley's entire report on disk ..." So no cloud-based wireless IT in this version of the future either. #Aliens #HATM

If only our present emerging technologies were as enlightened and fail-safe as Bishop. #Aliens #HATM

Apone waking from cryosleep and immediately reaching for his cigar stub is one of the greatest character introductions of all time. #Aliens #HATM
