I mean, let's be honest, the entire K-Pop Demon Hunters soundtrack is positively riddled with bangers, they didn't miss with any of them. I think there's a reason Netflix is submitting "Golden" for Oscar consideration, but any one of the original tracks is top-flight pop.
@scalzi.com I know you're all about Golden, but I'm going on about 12 hours now of This Is What It Sounds Like being stuck in my head.
It's my favorite song from the soundtrack but it needs to stop freeloading in my head.

Here's the truth.
You can't stand with trans people and take a gig with Rowling. It is impossible. You can make donations, you can issue statements of support, but at the end of the day you are choosing to work with the single most prominent transphobe who uses her money and platform to harm us.

Who gave $1 million to Trump’s inaugural fund?
-Each of the 5 biggest tech firms
-The CEOs of Uber & OpenAI
-Auto giants Toyota, Ford, & GM
-Drugmaker behemoth Pfizer
Corporate America is desperate to kiss the ring.
There's nothing they won’t do for a tax break.

When you see reactions to this, keep something in mind: the heart of modern right-wind extremism is simultaneously rejecting norms of civility and decency and demanding their benefit.

Hi everyone.
The Onion, with the help of the Sandy Hook families, has purchased InfoWars.
We are planning on making it a very funny, very stupid website.
We have retained the services of some Onion and Clickhole Hall of Famers to pull this off.
I can't wait to show you what we have cooked up.

The satirical news site planned to turn Infowars into a parody of itself, mocking “weird internet personalities” who peddle conspiracy theories and health supplements.

Here’s a new GOP effort to thwart local autonomy. They’re denying Krasner jurisdiction over crimes within 500 yards of SEPTA property.
Basically all of Philly is within 509 yards of property owned by the transit authority.
The autocraticness is relentless. Utterly relentless.
