Muppets, Queer History, Cults and Star Trek
Four/eight characters got good character development, storyline and moments. The other four had to line up with the book/movie and literally nothing made any sense narratively (to me). I'll leave you to decide which are which #wickedforgood #wickedspoilers

💯 As I say in my book, not only is it a trauma fact that one can heal wo forgiving, but Jewish law doesn’t require the harmed party to forgive their harmdoer— ded if they don’t do EVERY step of repentance

& if the harm is trauma-level, as I read the sources, there’s no obligation, even if they do.
Today’s concept of “forgiveness” is pushed on survivors of SA, DV, or other abuse as the only way to “move on” and heal from their trauma. This is nothing but patriarchal garbage. You can survive and thrive without “forgiving” those who have caused you trauma.

Gonzo, reciting Shakespeare, as he is a reliable narrator #themuppets70 Gonzo is an artist who never gives up, and he's a wonderful weirdo, and Muppets From Space taught me so much

A Government of cowards.

Rather than tackle inequality - they've gone for pensioners, disabled people and now it's people fleeing war and persecution.

They can't get away with this.

Seeing a few comments about “dead rapists bringing down living rapists”.

Let’s be clear.

It’s not Epstein that has Trump and MAGA on the defensive. It’s not Epstein that had a former Prince stripped of his title.

It’s the survivors of Epstein’s abuse. It’s the women who refused to be silent.

This exact same reporter was ousted from the NY Times for soliciting a $30,000 donation from Epstein— and you're telling me that as an employer, the NY Times never bothered to circle back and review this person's correspondence with a convicted pedophile?
A former New York Times staffer quietly left the paper after revealing he had solicited charitable donations from Jeffrey Epstein
Former New York Times reporter Landon Thomas Jr. told his editors he became friends with Epstein after profiling him in 2008, NPR reported Thursday.

Found the tweet that Joyce Carol Oates bodied Elon Musk with and it's so beautiful in its eloquent, simple take down. So much so he's crashing out trying to prove he reads books now. Put this in the Louvre.

Who has better chemistry Magneto and Pro X, or Q and Picard?
Q could make more of a surprising entry if the episodes weren't called Q something, though, on the other hand, I wouldn't have known to watch one more episode today to catch him if it wasn't named Q something
