If curious, this is a 2024 Sendai Philharmonic Orchestra performance of 'Symphonic suite Z-GUNDAM’ (though just released on CD). They committed to honoring Saegusa’s original orchestral arrangements, after finding his handwritten sheet music deep within the SUNRISE archives.

I think Joyce Carol Oates has managed to be impossible to milkshake duck.
Not because she hasn't said problematic things - she has.
But she has said them in service to no higher goals. She's not trying to take over the government, or start a cult or a movement

PLUR1BUS is something we haven't seen in some time on TV: dangerous science fiction. A real think piece. Takes the question played around with in Asmov's GREEN PATCHES, ANNIHILATION, and even SEA OF RUST, to its most interesting conclusion: What if individualism is the biggest threat to world peace?

The average SNAP benefit per month is $177 a person.
The average ACA benefit per month is up to $550 a person.
People want us to hold the line for a reason. This is not a matter of appealing to a base. It’s about people’s lives.
And working people want leaders whose word means something to them.

Anti-EBT people have never really struggled and you can tell. "OMG! You're buying cookies & soda? With OUR money?"
Like, yeah, dickcheese. Those are calorie dense foods, which is exactly what you need when you're trying to survive.
Some people need others to suffer so their efforts feel validated.
