Sir Ian McKellen performing a monologue from Shakespeare’s Sir Thomas More on the Stephen Colbert show. Never have I heard this monologue performed with such a keen sense of prescience. Nor have I ever been in this exact historical moment.TY Sir Ian, for reaching us once again.

I need a mood booster, let's talk about capybaras.
Here's a capy demonstrating one of MANY ways they can move through the water: running along the bottom.
They're 'semi-aquatic' mammals, just like hippos, seals & beavers. They LOVE water.

The opening of Jim Henson’s unsold TALES OF THE TINKERDEE pilot from 1962. Kermit is still very much in his formative stages, but nearly there, and King Goshposh & Taminella Grinderfall would later return in the TALES FROM MUPPETLAND specials. I love the production design...

The randomized playlist of destiny just served up:
- Dance This Mess Around, B-52s
- Lie Dream of Casino Soul, The Fall
- Stardust, Willie Nelson
And I’d have to say that’s a pretty representative sample. 🙂 happy happy joy joy.

I want to do a 🧵 about the Sidney Sweeney thing, because it's *extremely* revealing & educational.
First, to be clear: I could not give less of a shit about the details -- the ad, the rhetoric, the jeans, her boobs, whatever. Good lord, who cares.
Let's look at the *structure* of the episode.
