Okay, someone took "No Kings" just a little too seriously.
Thieves just executed an armed heist at the Louvre, shattering display cases to steal historic diamonds once owned by Napoleon and Empress Josephine. The museum has been temporarily closed following the robbery.

How about one more #RaveyardShift on women in trance music?
The first to make their mark were songwriters and vocalists, which led to the #vocaltrance subgenre. Roles continue to change, along with the sound.

Monday's the beginning of #GenderEqualityWeek. While EDM is still a male-dominated genre, the #trancefamily is always growing.

Quite seriously: EU, Canada, UK, Aus, Japan, Korea should Launch the mRNA moonshot. Jointly put $1-2 billion towards it.

Dare I say it, but the brief depiction of Howard Simons in ALL THE PRESIDENT'S MEN (1976) by Martin Balsam was perfect.
Makes over-the-top jokes, plays coy and asks all the mundane questions (that turn out to be right), and then steers the story while Bradlee/Woodward/Bernstein eat up the screen.

You've inherited a movie theatre, what's your double feature?
Two sci-fi films (Can I call the latter sci-fi, @bitchuation.bsky.social?) that present exaggerated pratfalls of human life, but have become prescient over time and improbably end up hopeful.
