I love the 12-D chess of "let's persecute a bunch of experienced NSA security experts because they're trans and hope turning them into unemployed activists with an axe to grind doesn't come back to bite us." Countdown to Rufo's emails including him grooming a 12 year old being publicly leaked.

this is one iof those things that will sound absolutely batshit till it actually plays out, but I am fully convinced that within the next 2-3 years entire schools are gonna end up losing D-1 status over sports betting scandals driven by the gambling epidemic that we refuse to call out as one

Genuinely kind of funny that after White House reporters spent years complaining that Biden wasn't accessible enough and saying how much more access they have with Trump that they're now getting the door slammed in their faces, tbh

Hey folks, George Lucas wasn’t president of Lucasfilm before Kennedy, Micheline Chau was. If you don’t know who Micheline Chau is or what she did, you don’t want Dave Filoni (or whatever creative person you like) to have her job.

I’ve deleted so many comments about this post and how we got here. Anyway, this should be a huge scandal tomorrow, with interviews of Arab-Americans outaged the president would post something like this. But of course, it won’t even get covered. Too many white folks in diners to talk to.

In my own practice I find it extremely frustrating how hard it is to even get the most basic sanctions. So far no judge has taken up my “opposing counsel should take a class on the law because they obviously don’t understand” motion.

I love when things like this are released, so when explaining to people what I do for a living I can easily point to this as I explain. I wish something like this had been released for Cats. I did not work on Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes, although I would have died to get the chance.

This COVID learning coverage needs to acknowledge the impact of desires to get things "back to normal" in schools (and the rest of the United States) as quickly as possible. Now we're getting more data that documents how short-sighted and damaging those desires were www.nytimes.com/2025/02/11/b...

this feels like a stark and important reminder that mainstream media - ALL OF IT, even the ones where people's opinions sometimes agree with yours - is never going to be a progressive ally. we all know that, but this really makes it unignorable. corporations gonna corporation, first, last & always

Why does 25% AfD among young men spark a thousand "what is going on with young men?" posts yet Die Linke 34% among young women generates...nothing at all? Yes, young men voting for the radical right is an important phenomenon. But so is young women going rad left at even higher rates.

Remember that O'Donovan once called for "open source" browsers to be banned. He was the minister overseeing the OPW but blamed the cost of the Dail bike shed on cyclists in general. He blamed the Dublin & Monaghan bombings in the IRA. I've eaten more intellectually curious cabbages.

With MCU tentpoles running under two hours and a slew of over/under 90-minute programmers making up the vast majority of early-year theatrical releases, we are seeing quite a few films that can -- even counting previews and credits -- come in at under the two-hour mark.

I really hope these new editions can bring Beckett's fiction to a new audience. When I was doing my M.A. a number of students who intended to write a thesis on Beckett changed their minds, largely because so much of his work is out of print.
