In ep 3 of #AmericanRevolution I legit got chills during that scene of fighting in Brooklyn. I live in BK but from the Midwest, so don't know the history here.
what do you mean they fought on Bedford, Flat Bush, and Gowanus. George Washington was chilling in Cobble Hill. Now devastated we lost.

Cynthia Erivo’s performance of I am not that girl is underrated.
But the Oscar defying gravity performance is superior to the movie with those long ass scene breaks.

What you have to understand about #wicked is that its basically the musical theatre version of #themorningshow. Absolutely bonkers plot twists but the performances are so good it somehow hangs together.
If I could have one magic power it would be Madame Morribles ability to change the weather.

Rewatching the first #wicked. The scene where they forcefully take Dr Dillamond from the clasroom really hits different from when I saw it a year ago.
Now we all relate to Elphie living through fascism.

This is the most bone chilling thing he could have said tbh.
Q: Stefanik has called Mamdani a 'jihadist.' Do you think you're standing next to a jihadist right now?
TRUMP: No, I don't. I met with a man who's a very rational person

amazon black friday sale - here is a product you bought 40% off.
look at price - huh thats only $6 cheaper than when i bought it. this math is not matching....
ohhh I see because they marked the original price up from $54 to $87 so they could then mark it 40% off.

Ive never gotten into Ken Burns docs before, but i am only an hour into the American Revolution doc and my mind is already blown.
It is amazing the amount of context and detail it fills in that directly relates to society today without explicitly saying that.

A smart take. And I will just say the All her Fault flashback episode made me irate. What do you mean that in an 8 episode series you are going to sideline Sarah Snook for ep 7?! GTFO.

Is Cynthia Erivo superhuman?
This year she already been nominated for an Oscar, an Emmy (poker face!) and a grammy, hosted the Tonys, released an album of original music, filmed movie of Prima Facie, releasing a memoir, preparing for Dracula on West End, and more Wicked insanity.
Exhausting.

This month watching Oscar-winning Best Actress performances - 1 film a decade. Mostly movies I have not seen before. I had seen Mary Poppins, but not as an adult.
Fav so far: Jane Fonda in Klute. Next up: 2000s Monster
