they should trade it to the pirates for skenes
Lots of valid concerns about any possible WB sale, but my main concern is that this Chuck Jones cartoon might go back in the vault.

I have a particular hatred for the "I will see your pessimism and raise it by 5-10%" genre. "It's happening already," "Next year? More like next week," "It's already too late," "...and no one will listen." It's just...ugh. Is one-downmanship a thing?

please tell my wife this is why I have too many records
People who listened to music most days slashed their risk of developing dementia by 39 percent compared with those who did not regularly listen to music, a new study of more than 10,000 people age 70 and over found.
Listening to music is linked to lower dementia risk, study suggests

All I'm saying is that if ever there was an actor who could just walk right into a COLUMBO reboot and assume that legendary role without anyone blinking, it would be Dinklage.

I can't believe there are people who don't know who Rosalina is in the Mario franchise. It's really simple: She is the Queen of Outer Space from the future and secretly Luigi and Peach's daughter and also can travel to different dimensions where she can make out with the guys from Bad Dudes

As a former 15 year old girl, I’m the same age as Britney Spears and Anna Kournikova and I remember all the stuff people said about them on tv, sports radio, and newspapers, full mainstream. It was gross then and now, and I don’t really have a point, just, yeah, you're still a child when you’re 15.

Started watching The Big Sleep with my oldest last night and when Lauren Bacall came on screen, she turned to me, not knowing who it was, and asked "Is she a style icon? Because I feel like she should be a style icon."

Some things this national pundit (who summers in Blue Hill) misses:
Golden was most hurt by inaccessibility and arrogance, not his positions.
Matt Dunlap is not in a "statewide elected position." The ME SoS is chosen by the state leg. And he's a strong candidate for the district.

I don’t know what’s really in Jared Golden’s heart as he steps away from congress but you have to think he’d have more zest for the job of his accomplishments were properly acknowledged.

Honestly, until like the 1970s or 1980s, people have held the attitude that adult men having sex with teenagers is "normal" and "biologically wired." They still believe it, they just learned to stop talking about it openly at some point.
Conservatives when it's a 15 year old in library; "These are children and I can't believe we are letting them read smut like Twilight!!!"
Conservatives when it's a 15 year old sex trafficking victim; "Looks, these people are practically legal. Barely legal even"

100% on board as long as they don't even try to explain the recast.
‘POKER FACE’ has been cancelled by Peacock after 2 seasons.
However, Rian Johnson is pitching a new version of the series with Peter Dinklage taking over as detective Charlie Cale

in online corners like these I think people largely recognize how credulous, unprincipled opposition to "wokeness" functioned as lightly papered over defenses of impunity, but it's one of those drums people should probably start beating for normies
Something absolutely perfect about Larry Summers riffing about the scourge of woke cancel culture being unfair to predatory men in a friendly email to his pal JEFFREY EPSTEIN.
