This season of The Morning Show honestly rocked. Cory Ellison’s arc paid off emotionally AND logically! There was hot sex and cold betrayal, opera, AI and gulags. Campy and cynical but also finger-wagging and earnest, like The Newsroom making out with Scandal

Reminder to everyone donating to food banks in light of the Republicans starving SNAP: It is far more cost effective to donate directly to food banks than to buy food and give it to them. They can buy in bulk and have existing relationships with sellers, so your few bucks go way further that way

MVP of this #worldseries game? Clearly the organist (Dieter Ruehle) … Gilligan’s Island theme, Neverending Story theme, etc. Brilliant.

And he has to be the MVP because we’ll never know who wins the game. ⚾️

Ohtani was the first player to reach base 7 times in a World Series game. He is also the first player to reach base 8 times in a World Series game. And he is the first player to reach base 9 times in a World Series game.

These are all the same World Series game.

Brilliant and ridiculously prescient scene between Redford and Kingsley’s 60s activists who’ve both taken very different paths since in the wonderful Sneakers:

Holy shit. This guy saved a PNG to a bird.

(he drew a bird into a spectrogram, played that sound to a starling, and the starling reproduced it back to him with enough accuracy he got his bird drawing back in their call's spectrogram) www.youtube.com/watch?v=hCQC...
