This grim-visaged warrior actually got a few laughs in last Monday's CORIOLANUS by the Back Room Shakespeare Project, cut to a fleet & fierce 85 minutes by Sam Pearson (bloody C himself) and performed in Chicago's tiny Hideout tavern. #TheFaultDearBrutusIsNotInOurBars

Loved @questlove.bsky.social’s film SLY LIVES, especially when Shakespeare holds forth about THE BURDEN OF BLACK GENIUS. Bravo.

Thank you, Paul Rieckoff!! OpSec was violated.
I don't care how many home runs were made. These were attack plans in a non-scif, non-approved platform.
For your reference, reporters use Signal to receive tips.
The irony is off the chain ridiculous.
Fire all of them now.
