Boy Bugonia was just unfairly good. Exhausting, mean spirited and cruel. Thank you Yorgos, and Emma Stone please remain in your freak era forever.

Been listening to Voidscarred on my commute after finishing up Da Big Dakka and Lelith Queen of Knives, and I'm glad that Mike Brooks has leaned into making the eldar into the biggest bunch of disaster gays since the Primarchs went rampaging.

The hardest working guild in Karazad- the embalmers. The potent tannins found in the vast peat bogs north of the city are the primary drivers of preservation, but salt and oil also come into play once the cadavers emerge from their long immersions

They made a gat-dang found family buddy cop comedy out of the Predator franchise and it ended up being one of the best yet. What a time to be alive. I really loved it. Great soundtrack, goopy monsters, kinetic action scenes, didn't lose itself in The Lore, very close to a tight 90. Fantastic.

Alfred Molina's nuanced performance as Doc Ock in Spider-Man 2 may very well be the chief reason as to why it's my favorite superhero movie.

Mary Beard live is such a treat. I'm always going to be a Roman history nerd and she is so perfectly attuned to what I love about it, the normal people, instead of HARD MEN DOING STOICISM AND SHIELD WALLS AND DECISIONS. Failed poets, chariot circuit stars and roguish housewives are more fun by far.

Three old nuns squatting in their shuttered convent, and pissing off the local church powers that be, is the most punk nun thing I've ever read about.The new pope is from Chicago, where labor has often fought the bosses. If he doesn't come out on the nuns side, he loses all of his Chicago cred.
Octogenarian Sisters Rita, Regina and Bernadette went back to their old convent with local support, and an Instagram following. "People are calling us the rebellious sisters!" Rita says.

Whole article is great but extra lol at the David Brooks pull quote about people becoming alienated not by the deliberate actions of modern society but because they read Foucault once in university.
