I used to live a few blocks away from Elizabeth Warren in Cambridge, and I can personally confirm that they give out full-size candy bars on Halloween.
“For the first time in U.S. history, the President is cutting off food assistance and telling more than 40 million Americans to eat dirt.”

Hell yeah Elizabeth Warren, that’s my senator

A rare happy story: The Boston Museum of Fine Arts has restored its holdings of the works of the enslaved potter David Drake to his descendants, following the pattern of Holocaust art restitution, the first time a museum has restored a work produced by an enslaved person.

I read this reporting on the ICE fitness tests that Kristi Noem’s agents are “athletically allergic” to and failing at record rates.

Made it my cardio closer after my lift tonight.

My favorite Struzan story is that he was doing the poster for Indy at Disneyland, but they didn't have the rights to Ford's likeness. Fed up with working around the problem, Struzan just called Ford and was like, "hey, can I use your face for this," and Ford said, "if it's for you, absolutely."

Did you know the voice of Disney's Prince Charming was gay? Neither did I, but according to this biography of actor Charles Laughton, Laughton and the actor Bill Phipps were having a not-apparently-secret affair during the making of Cinderella. Good for them!
