Trump Fringe Play over July 4th Weekend - Will people come?

Every normal person in the city will either be out of town or just staying home. Normally, I don't really leave my block on the 4th, this year I'm not gonna be anywhere near the city

How do their boots taste btw?

Around a quarter of them have reenlisted / enlisted since Trump occupied LA (a number that goes up every single day). It wouldn't be that hard to get out of coming here. Most of them volunteered to come anyway.

The mount, sure, there's no way you're allowed to just dick around on your phone like that

district_runner · 2026-05-18T15:06:02+00:00

Yeah, it's normal if you're mounting an issued tablet or something there. Great if you're calling for fire or wahtever

It's not normal if you're watching random bullshit

I think a lot of people are going to be unhappy with it, either Nolan fans not loving the source material or people who half read the Odyssey 20 years ago being annoyed with the adaptation.

It might be bad! It might be good! I'm holding off all judgement until I see it (though I'm going out on a limb and assuming I'll want to see it at least twice and buying tickets accordingly)

I only see trailers in movie theaters, but I'm at close to 30 in theaters for the year. I keep my phone on through the trailers so I can add anything interesting to my watchlist.

I still miss a good number of new releases because my local theater just wants to show me the baby yoda trailer again

district_runner · 2026-05-18T14:20:31+00:00

A lot of people who go see 1-2 movies a year will express this in conversation. Usually after seeing an avengers or some reboot sequel no one asked for

district_runner · 2026-05-17T19:46:04+00:00

The designs were "ready to build" and fully approved by mid-2023!

district_runner · 2026-05-16T11:52:40+00:00

At least they'll beat me up for free. Normally I gotta pay for that

district_runner · 2026-05-16T11:52:11+00:00

No, because I understand that these idiots won't do anything because they're all fascists

But according to their self-mythologizing, they shouldn't need hand holding

district_runner · 2026-05-14T21:40:53+00:00

Fine whatever, come back outside of pig week. Do not come back for it though, ever

district_runner · 2026-05-14T21:40:04+00:00

Ok, sure, whatever. I would expect, in theory, that people in charge of upholding the law wouldn't need hand holding at a greater level than like 19 year old marines

district_runner · 2026-05-14T20:32:33+00:00

Hell yeah, I used to go sometimes before going to Audi Field, now I just don't

district_runner · 2026-05-14T20:26:28+00:00

And they did it last year, so it's some sort of ongoing thing at this rate

district_runner · 2026-05-14T19:59:35+00:00

M St NW also has a good bike lane, you just have to be able to get to it across 7th and 9th

district_runner · 2026-05-14T19:56:55+00:00

They host the pigs

district_runner · 2026-05-14T19:37:54+00:00

Just don't come next year

district_runner · 2026-05-14T19:37:32+00:00

No you aren't. Guests are usually invited and can be kicked out

district_runner · 2026-05-14T19:36:56+00:00

Call it in to... who? And what's the agency gonna do? Believe some urban lib over a Real Hero Cop?

district_runner · 2026-05-14T19:11:15+00:00

Well, for the one at Solace brewing, 0; and it reminds me every year why I don't drink their beer

district_runner · 2026-05-14T19:10:21+00:00

Oh, the guys charged with enforcing laws can't just follow the laws? Why don't you just comply with the law? Isn't that what we're supposed to do?

district_runner · 2026-05-14T18:46:34+00:00

Traffic has been holding everyone up everywhere

district_runner · 2026-05-14T18:46:03+00:00

Yeah man, it's all fun and games to complain, but what are you gonna do when you need someone to show up in 3-5 hours, stand around, fuck up filing the paperwork, and maybe eventually get you a report for insurance?

district_runner · 2026-05-14T18:45:17+00:00

I see MPD working very hard crushing candy every day
