Great shot of the left field umpire. He may have been the only person who understood what was happening and he signaled it immediately. #Dodgers #Brewers #NLCS

That play in the #Dodgers #Brewers #NLCS game may be the most insane play I've ever seen. No catch and an 8-2-2 double play? Absolutely wild.

Heathcliff rides down the street in his open-top ham car past an autumn tree whose colored leaves are falling. Two meat store employees watch from their shop's entrance, and one says "This is great ham weather."

I most recently watched it a few years ago and still enjoyed it. Is the story perfect? No, but the movie is so beautifully made.

Dick Tracy is an overlooked masterpiece and it deserves a Criterion edition.

I don't think any of those characters currently have a series.

I was into Johnny Cash before he was cool.

Imagine spending four decades of your life behind bars for a crime you didn’t commit.

That alone is cruel and unusual punishment.

You finally manage to secure your freedom, only to have ICE immediately grab you and send you to a detention centre.

Justice for Subu.

Let him go.

Lynn Becker @cmgiulini.bsky.social · 2d

After spending 43 years in prison for a crime he didn't commit, evidence hidden by the prosecution reversed his conviction. Rather than finally enjoying freedom, ICE abducted him for deportation

Depraved.

He was wrongfully imprisoned for 43 years. Moments after being released, ICE took him

Fantastic thread on the significance of the Catholic actions to confront ICE in Chicago.

rahaeli @rahaeli.bsky.social · 2d

It's always good to see priests who still remember there are *seven* Catholic social principles. Also, that noise you hear is the USCCB screeching to the Vatican and getting back nothing, lol

Chicago priest Fr. Larry Dowling describes procession to ICE facility: “No one had the courage to speak directly to us. No one from Homeland Security could stand in the presence of the Monstrance holding the Blessed Sacrament. No wonder. Evil is repelled, recoils in the presence of Christ.”

If you think you know why US newspapers died, this feature documentary now streaming for free on PBS might surprise you. It wasn't the Internet. Newspapers were specifically targeted by vulture capitalists.

I composed the score for the film, which features electric cello & Crowfoot guitars.

Stripped for Parts: American Journalism on the Brink

A handful of journalists rebel against a hedge fund that is gutting newspapers nationwide.

Another alternative is that Fred, having come of age in the 1890s, did not know how babies were made.

In s1e11 "Drafted" of I Love Lucy, Fred thinks that Ethel is pregnant. This implies that Fred and Ethel have sex which, quite frankly, I don't believe.

This is some really fascinating forensic analysis and it highlights how much of the creative process between Lee and Kirby is always going to be opaque to us because it was done verbally between two men who tell two very different stories about it.
