The funny thing about this is that while I'm sure YouTube has some grand rebranding strategy in mind for which this makes perfect sense, the odds that they will still be pursuing that same strategy in 3 years is 50-50 at best.

I couldn't find it a few months ago for my yearly-ish rewatch. Glad to see this. I wish streaming services would stop playing hot potato with this show.
It's like the streaming gods heard my prayers. Fringe is on Hulu, after being taken off HBOMax a couple of years ago! And as they giveth, so they taketh away. The captions aren't working. 😭

Photographer Christopher Anderson re: WH Vanity Fair portraits: “Very close-up portraiture has been a fixture in a lot of my work over the year. Particularly, political portraits that I’ve done over the years. I like the idea of penetrating the theater of politics.”

Apparently no malice intended.🤭

I'm not even opposed to throwing your life away for love (as a movie plot)

But he doesn't even KNOW Belle. He doesn't LOVE her. He doesn't even LIKE her.

He wants Belle because she's the prettiest girl in town. That's it. And he loses his mind because he's never heard the word no before.

Help Meems romancelandia!
The wee niece Meems comes with a request (likely for YA or not so spicy adult) romance!

It's one of her few ships and I want to help her chase that feeling. If you have a rec, pass it on to me and I'll give it to her!

Thank you!

They’ll pick the high-tech, expensive surveillance & control option every single time over the much more effective AND cost-effective solution called “build a trusting relationship with the young people in your life”
the modern world is defined by people in power latching on to policies and ideas that sound reasonable at first pass if you don't apply a modicum of critical thinking to them
Fancy a digital chastity belt?

The government wants Apple and Google to stop you from taking or sending pics of your bits.

Intrusive scanning tech on your phone would block nudes unless you verify your age with biometrics or official ID.

It's creepy mission creep.

NEW: A lax regulatory environment has led to the widespread abuse of farmworkers — including threats of violence, stolen wages and forced labor.

Experts say the Fair Food Program's reforms could help.

But few farms have signed on.
