I know a lot of other people are good at it, too. But @Lawrence tears into Trump like a pissed off Old Testament God.

@BrndnStrssng That was then. This is now. Don’t be surprised if, after a long drought, people want to talk about the rain when it finally arrives.

Is there an actor currently on TV who's demonstrating more range than Zahn McClarnon in "Dark Winds" and "Reservation Dogs"?

It is August 22, and I am 68 years old. How in the holy hell did this happen?

I have noticed that Michael Caine has starring or co-starring roles in movies set for 2020 or 2021 release., This would mean he's had his name above the title in films released over seven decades. Who else can claim that?

@elissaben70 When I was undergoing radiation therapy for prostate cancer, I feared my ass would start glowing in the dark. As it turned out, I was a bit disappointed when it didn’t. Hang in there. And Merry Christmas.
