So much for retirement plans as @DeptVetAffairs sent me a letter that basically says “oops we over payed your disability compilation by more then $18,000” with no explanation. and need to collect. I can appeal, but I think we all know how those work with them.

For the world to know... was a total stud- smashing into college football stars, running his ass off, and, yes, getting injured and fighting on anyway. #TheSenior, about a 59 yr old man playing college ball, will frigging rock because of him.

A little reward after a week of night shoots in Texas 100 degree heat, playing football with 20 somethings! Ah... #TheSenior

I think does amazing work... but you will never ever inspire people to "see the light" by shaming and insulting them. I wonder how many (essential) votes cost herself with the "deplorable" comment. #eyesontheprize

If you voted for Trump in 2016 you're stupid. If you voted for Trump in 2020 you're part of a cult. Those are the choices. Stupid or cult or both.

One of the most consequential athletes of all time- is a bona fide hero. Damn, we'll miss her on the courts... but I don't think it is the last we'll hear from this amazing human.

Will always cheer @serenawilliams on and off the court for the incredible athlete, advocate, mom and role model that she is. Can’t wait to see what is next! vogue.com/article/serena

For all you Republicans screaming "banana republic." I guess "no one is above the law"... with the exception of my former boss who was cool with me being lynched.

.@realDonaldTrump and I commend the FBI for reopening an investigation into Clinton's personal email server because no one is above the law.

#PreyMovie is superb -tense, taut, and quite moving. It features (the daughter of a legendary casting director Angelique Midthunder) in a full on star making turn. I should be so lucky as to yell "action" her way sometime soon.

True... but only because everything has touched has turned into a masterpiece.

Replying to @RodLurie and @JordanPeele
You and @JordanPeele should direct Resurrecting the Champ 2 that would be a masterpiece 🎬✨

Florida woman Christina Calello, 36, arrested for having sex with her dog over 8 year period. Her boyfriend Geoffrey Springer, 39, was arrested for recording the sexual activity. The dog was confiscated by police and taken to an animal hospital. Did I mention this was in Florida?

There are very few words spoken in this film that don't contribute to story or theme. Miss any one of them and you are not fully "getting" #Nope. That alone makes seeing this masterful film by a second time.

In addition to being a great read, this review is completely on point. And yes, he’s right, #NopeMovie IS a film you need to see twice to fully appreciate. twitter.com/no_trailers/st…

Can’t believe we even have to say this, but: if you just went to the Senate floor and blocked benefits for veterans exposed to toxic burn pits while serving our country in a war zone, you are wrong.

When I first saw her in the Woody Allen fell, I thought she would become one of the biggest stars in the world. She is so fucking talented

Rewatching Resurrection and how on earth has Rebecca Hall not been nominated for an Oscar or an Emmy? She's just one of the best actresses working today.

I really really like these smart dudes. One is clearly more handsome than the other - but that is neither there nor that.

1. Happy you were unharmed. 2. You should thank your governor for passing one of the toughest gun laws in the country. 3. You should also be grateful that wasn't #WillSmith. He'd have gotten to you.

Thank you to all who reached out following tonight’s attack. Grateful I was able to grab onto his wrist in time when he lunged for my neck. Grateful many individuals on site quickly jumped in & tackled him. Grateful for the local law enforcement who apprehended the attacker.🙏
