Another year, another podcast list. This year brought to you by my enduring love of movies (hi @horrorqueers.bsky.social and @blankcheck.bsky.social!) and my need for long form narrative for half marathon training (full TAZ Balance re-listen and full Jane Eyre relisten on Hot and Bothered.)

Also before anyone says it, here's my favorite Classical rhetorical device. The only pity is we took it into English from the Greeks, instead of the very fun Latin word, pr(a)eterition

"I wont even mention [subject described in detail]" is a literal Classic!

Montgomery County Public Schools comes out and tells Trump to pound sand with his EO telling schools that they have to discriminate against transgender students.

So Trump's shutting down of the entire government's funding system for American projects is literally so he can go line by line and target transgender people and other minorities.

When we said transphobia affects cis people too, well... here you go.
