His artwork absolutely legitimized these stories and made them felt like extensions of the Original Trilogy.

Drew Struzan was probably best known for his movie posters, but we will always cherish his many, many contributions to our bookshelves - a master, and an inspiration. ✨

Even before that, Dem leadership is gonna need to grapple with this: the playing field has changed, and unless you do too you are gonna get clobbered. Look at what happened in 2006 because there's a high chance of it repeating

In other words, protein-supplement jocks have been giving themselves significant lead poisoning for years, which explains so _very_ much about our world.

my latest investigation for @consumerreports.org is based on months of reporting and 60+ lab tests of leading protein supplements

we found that most protein powders and shakes have more lead in one serving than our experts say is safe to have in a day (🧵)

Protein Powders and Shakes Contain High Levels of Lead - Consumer Reports

CR tests of 23 popular protein powders and shakes found that most contain high levels of lead.

...but if you'd like to lay your peepers on a trippy, horror television series starring Robert Englund that Wes Craven DID directly create and curate, I suggest checking out NIGHTMARE CAFE. It's about a diner not beholden to the rules of space or time that draws in the unusual, strange, and dead.

A promo ad for 1992's NIGHTMARE CAFE, featuring series leads Jack Coleman and Lindsay Frost in vintage diner server apparel looking on as Rober Englund looks over a menu.

There's definitely something to be said that pro-Israel types overplayed their hand and have now made pro-Palestine (or at least, critical of Israel) a default position in the party.

A reminder, since rando bros are dropping in to announce their boycott, thinking we’re pro-AI like one of our producers.

There’s an interview going around about AI, so before there are any questions, let me state unequivocally that BLACK PHONE 2 is 100% organic. AI was not used at any stage of the filmmaking from idea generation, research, look books, writing, onscreen images - anything. We’re old school and love it.
