"Blind Side" and "Crash" were held up by white folks as being proof of America's racial progress and white goodness, at the time. If these allegations are true, they not only expose said myths, but reveal how white people still brutally rob black people. espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/3819…

I took 1 star reviews of #Barbie from furious men on letterboxd and put them on the posters because it makes the film seem ever cooler.

King of Spain at the final day of Wimbledon. This looks great. Very rare to see this level of tailoring nowadays, even on the wealthy. So let's talk about some of the reasons why it's great. 🧵

Thread: Viral misinformation about the French riots This video of several cars falling from a multi-storey car park is from the set of the action film Fast & Furious 8, and unrelated to the current French riots. It was filmed in 2016 on Prospect Avenue East in Cleveland, Ohio.

During WWI Mi5 recruited Boy Scouts to serve as messengers for classified documents. Unfortunately the boys bragged and gossiped. Eventually mI5 used Girl Guides because they were able to keep from gossiping.

Yes, there are all kinds of problems going on in the world right now. But if you haven't read this #PyrexGate story, it's both educational *and* entertaining Sunday morning reading! 🍿😮👀
🧵 It appears I have been ripped off. It’s the Pyrex version of the Nigerian Prince Scam or the Ghana Romance Scam. I saw an almost too good to be true listing of vintage Pyrex and jumped on it. I knew it could be fake but thought it was worth the risk. 1/

the funniest report i’ve read so far and hope is true is that the kremlin ordered the regular fsb border guards to deny the wagner column entry to russia and they replied that this would be “unrealistic”

Kinzinger: This is a massive blow to the Russian republic and a massive blow to their military effort and I will also say, it is a massive blow to the people here in the United States like Tucker Carlson, who have been parroting Putin talking points
