Assign a composer/lyricist (individual or team), retired or dead, to adapt a book/play/movie into a stage musical (that they didn't actually do, natch).
Feel free to provide a title and/or year of composition.

The plagiarism machine is also a gaslighting nana machine.
The comments on this are all about how sweet it is and I feel insane. Using AI to make fake memories of your grandma with dementia and telling her they happened and then filming her reaction

If you could build an X-Men team with 7 women on it, whom would you pick?
EXCLUSIVE: This Karen S. Darboe variant cover for X-Men #25 puts the ladies first
"All the best X-Men are women," the T-shirt says, and it's true.
