Lorne Michaels Is the Real Star of “Saturday Night Live”

Anybody else wish R.E.M. @remhq.bsky.social would get over themselves and go out on tour again?

I mean, nothing anybody did or didn’t do can be so bad as to warrant this permanent breakup, right?

C’mon guys. The people demand it…

Shirley Jackson’s short story from 1948, which inspired the most mail The New Yorker had ever received in response to a work of fiction.
“The Lottery,” by Shirley Jackson
Fiction, from 1948: “The people had done it so many times that they only half listened to the directions; most of them were quiet, wetting their lips, not looking around.”

For to quote The Silmarillion, “it is said by the Eldar that in water there lives yet the echo of the Music of the Ainur more than in any substance else that is in this Earth; and many of the Children of Ilúvatar hearken still unsated to voices of the Sea, and yet know not for what they listen."

J.R.R. Tolkien's 1936 essay ‘Beowulf: The Monsters and the Critics’ is considered perhaps the most important critical essay ever written about the Old English epic. It also sheds tremendous light on his creative process and why his work remains so resonant today. 🧵

"All I have to say is this recipe is dirrrrrty. I inhaled it."
