Guillermo del Toro’s Frankenstein reminds me of the M A G A fan base...obsessed with creating life but unwilling to nurture it; eager to play creator, yet incapable of compassion for what they bring into being.

One of my favorite D’Angelo performances is his tribute to Prince on The Tonight Show.
His version of Sometimes It Snows in April—one of my favorite Prince songs—is absolutely beautiful. It moves me to tears every time. About to go watch it again.

I had to watch the full video of Ted Cruz myself to confirm whether the clips circulating on social media—where he says we should "stop attacking pedophiles"—were edited or missing context, like him quoting someone else. But nope, he actually said it!

NEW: Rachel Maddow drops unseen bodycam footage of feds coordinating the arrest of Newark Mayor Baraka.
I REPEAT: the feds ordered his arrest even though he wasn’t breaking any laws.
Federal agent: “We are arresting the mayor right now per the Deputy Attorney General of the United States.”

Finally watched the F1 movie with Damson Idris and Brad Pitt - solid film. That said, when it comes to racing movies, Rush still holds the top spot for me, with Ford v Ferrari coming in a close second.
