We did a Scream rewatch last night — better even than I remembered. Mostly about how men would rather kill you than figure shit their shit out. A hilarious riff on movies. Definitely wasn't capable of appreciating it way back when.

Incredibly unfair to cast him as co-protagonist in All the Presidents Men, convincing generations of dweebish young men that uncovering government wrongdoing is the sexiest, most important thing you can do.
Robert Redford's smile is so good he's the most famous smiling-guy meme on the internet even though probably 4 out of 5 ppl posting it have no idea he's Robert Redford, that's how good the smile is

Farmers in deep-red Pennsylvania are struggling to find workers. They're pushing lawmakers to move faster on a farm labor solution, even as Trump cracks down on immigration.
“We need people to do the jobs Americans are too spoiled to do," said one farmer and three-time Trump voter.

love the caption graphic here. "Why?"
When the Yankees drafted shortstop Core Jackson in July, they were aware that he had drawn a swastika on the dorm room door of a Jewish student in 2021, when he was a freshman at Nebraska.
Jackson was also charged with driving under the influence on Utah’s campus in 2024: http://dlvr.it/TMbHVP
