One of many examples of why conservatives who claim LOTR as their own really, really don't understand Tolkien
Not having read it in absolute decades, I’m reading a few pages of The Fellowship Of The Ring every morning & night in bed. Every now and then I stumble upon moments that feel like they gave, shall we say, something of a contemporary relevance.

I'd like to think this is the final blow for a narcissist with a 30% hit rate as a director who has exercised a stranglehold over culture my whole life. Probably not though!

Epic pays for licensing fees for the games they give away for free as promotions. Which means even if YOU aren't paying for it, you're giving money to JK Rowling to harm transgender people AND elevating her stature by giving her franchise higher numbers.

Not to cite a church father from a faith that I don’t believe in but Marx reviled gambling as providing the exact kind of false hope that the lefty defender of it in the screenshot uses to call it a potential point of relief

Kilmar Abrego Garcia wasn't supposed to be released.
He was released.
Indiana was supposed to gerrymander.
It didn't.
Maybe ordinary people fighting, and not waiting for some savior, is the way to go? As that community organizer said, "WE are the ones we've been waiting for."

This is still stuck in my brain some level.
I get why this isn’t online so I can show them but every time one of my kids mentions Dog Man I want to go, “Curse you, Dogman!” Like Kuno does in the second RANMA 1/2 movie.

I had a whole OC/headcanon about what Rabbi Hillel the Elder looks like in the HAZBIN HOTEL heaven and I realized it was unfortunately based on a story about Rabbi Akiva.

Love to see the Sedgwick County Zoo putting out a good explainer on why GenAI slop videos of animals are a problem & how to identify them! It’s succinct, easy to read, and doesn’t shame people for not knowing better. A+ useful link to share with family and friends.

Wicked isn’t queerbaiting but an alternative, funnier thing: a work where everyone involved in every single part of its production is independently committed to making it as gay as possible but nobody wants to be the first to say to the others that it’s what they were doing

Here’s the thing about the “Bob Cratchit is richer than me!” discourse. Like, do you think your life is measurably worse than his? Would you trade places with a Victorian father with a chronically ill child?

Valid.
it's scientifically proven that 90 percent of lesbianism in London between 1970 and 1990 was caused by being caught between Chris Hitchens and Martin Amis at a party.
