Hot take: The Wrath of Khan is the proto–legacy sequel. It brings back a cast, leans into their aging, resurrects an old villain, and tees up a “next generation” of protégés/nepo babies to inherit the franchise who are then immediately sidelined or discarded in the sequels that follow.

I simply refuse to accept that police ever have to look like this. this is just pure cosplay. it should be illegal for cops to be dressed like soldiers going to war.

New York Times killed Weinstein and Epstein stories but just asked Ms Rachel if she was funded by Hamas.

I honestly don’t know what to say anymore. It is overwhelmingly clear at this point that the Republican Party has sold its soul to protect a child rapist, led by wealthy ghouls who will never have enough.

There is only one war, now and forever, and it is the class war. There must be consequences.

It's a dark time for artists. Many are struggling!

It's easy to buy gifts online. When you buy from *artists*, you're supporting working people, instead of making rich jerks richer.

This fall, send your present $$ to an artist's shop!

Artists! Drop your shop links!

it's not that i ever doubted that being a barista was a skilled position, but my year-long effort to try to produce a half-decent latte at home has convinced me that a good barista is easily more skilled than virtually every c-suite executive on the planet

Raise your hand if you know what happens at supermarkets in lower-income/working class neighborhoods of color when the national understanding is that prices are going up.

Never mind, I’ll tell you: PRICE GOUGING.

I met James Watson at a local conference in graduate school.

Watson apparently “over-learned that his bad manners were tolerated because of the greatness of the discovery he had made.”

Kindness is a legacy that he failed to leave.

In 1107, King Henry's butler founded the abbey of Wymondham, & he donated 2 things to help the monks get by:

1. the right to salvage shipwrecks on a nearby coast
2. a rent of 2,000 eels per year

Time for an eel picnic on the beach!
