Even knowing the video game well, I feel like they have set such a hard road for redeeming Abby. I'm fascinated to see how it works out. #TheLastofUsSpoilers

In my head canon Pope Francis, now resting in the afterlife, just read the first page of the new issue of @kierongillen.bsky.social and @casparw.bsky.social’s The Power Fantasy and laughed so hard he had mate coming out of his nose.

Thanks to @sojo.net for inviting me to write about Francis, friend to the forgotten, the queer, the excluded.

Dear Journalism, I know you’ve been ready to report on Francis’ death for weeks but we do not need your Papal Conclave Pools on Day One.

My Catholic friend this morning: I just got back from the Vatican. I didn’t love it. Me: What did you do while you were there? My friend: We did the museum. It was not spiritual at all. Me: And St. Peter’s? Or other churches? My friend: Nah. But we loved Pamplona. Happy Easter, everybody!

Need a little bit of light in the darkness? Meet my friend Amy Ford Souders, a lobbyist who has spent the last 30 years advocating for health care issues. In an industry often dominated by bro-ey white dude guns for fire, Amy has spent her life trying to do some good.

Do we really live in a country where one angry senile old man can bring the whole thing down and the other two houses of government are like “🤷‍♂️”? Asking for a friend.

I have no idea how you run an election campaign with the US president basically attacking everyone but Russia. #auspol

Loved getting to talk to Robert L. Freedman. He has a lot to share about the process of making musical theater.

Just overheard a kid telling his friends “It was the best 9 episodes of my life.” Love that phrase.

TFW you're just discovering a film company had its fans stare at a hangar filled with empty chairs for 5 1/2 hours.
