I was lucky enough to see John Williams conduct the Seattle Symphony in 2017, and he told us the same story about how much he loved Rey. I've always wanted to write about it, and today I had the chance!
@kelly-knox.com has written a lovely article about John Williams, his love for Rey, and how his desire to write Rey’s Theme kept bringing him back to Star Wars.

I will never be more than ankle/calf deep at the shoreline ever again.
The Tasselled Wobbegong is a master of disguise that can eat a fish almost as big as itself in one gulp. It's classified as a shark, but when it lays on the sea floor it looks like a harmless rug if you manage to see it. But with powerful jaws and sharp teeth they are no fish to mess with.

One Haitian woman “showed up as scheduled, and when she arrived, officers were asking everyone what country they were from, and if they said a certain country, they were told to step out of line and that their oath ceremonies were canceled,” her attorney said.
They are now targeting people who did everything by the book and were literally at the ceremony where they were going to become citizens...

This really might be the best sports movie ever.
How actions indicate character:

Kit, a pitcher, ducks as she's used to line drives coming back at her

Marla, a middle infielder, plants herself to field the ball

Dottie, a catcher, catches the ball

Oh, here's a big surprise. The transphobes don't believe in ADHD either.
then, the transphobes , feeling victorious at how many people they have made unhappy and despairing in the previous week, move on to anything else that has a spectrum and the possibility of more colours than they can conceive - such hateful people - they cannot understand anything that is not THEM

Spotify is garbage on every count: Its treatment of artists, its ICE advertising, the CEO's investment in military AI, its leading role in the commodification and AI slopification of music, its terrible audio quality—you name it.

So I quit, and put together a complete guide to getting off Spotify:

I would love to know how much time passed between Tirico having to remind Collinsworth just how often the refs have bailed out the Chiefs in the past, and them getting bailed out by that facemask call.

Collinsworth really tried to pin this game on that PI call. lol

I hate it every time. Every. Time.
it's still always just so strange and odd to see people discuss covid like it was a shared memory from 20 years ago, and not a very recent, still-ongoing pandemic that many people are still trying to fight daily. it's just such a bizarre cultural framing. idk why i'm still surprised but i always am.
