Ok, I want to see more shows where Jensen Ackles is a super-competent good guy. He's done that in Supernatural and Tracker.
He'd probably be good in as a John Wick-type character now.

We watched SEVEN DIALS (Netflix) based on Agatha Christie's book, and really liked it! Great sets, costumes and fab. performances by everyone, especially Mia McKenna-Bruce, and of course Martin Freeman. Recommended.

Hi all, there are a lot of things to be said about the chaos, kidnapping and murder, that is happening in the state I live in right now. I want to highlight some things I have personally seen in the last month or so out on the streets in Minneapolis.

I will not vote for any candidate who runs with "we need to move forward" and refuses to prosecute this administration for every single one of their crimes. Accountability is all.

Man, did you know that, just as an example, 160 billion which is how much MacKenzie Scott got divorcing Bezos, divided by say, 2 million dollars a year for being well off doing nothing, would last EIGHTY THOUSAND YEARS?
UBI is a fine thing to hope for the world and the sooner the better. #UBI

That’s why I said if a Democrat ever gets back in power— they need to “flood the zone“ exactly the same way, but instead of evil and stupid things it can be stuff like universal healthcare, UBI, making new National Parks, ending the electoral college, Green New Deal, student loan forgiveness etc.

Just been made aware of Haiti's winter Olympics get-up.
That skirt looks warm, has good pockets, and has a massive horse on it. DING DING DING.

The Wright Museums Instagram page is HILARIOUS. Think The Office but it's the staff at a Museum for Black History. Better believe this is on my list of places to visit.

Context: this speech is from SIR THOMAS MORE, a history written, as near as scholars can tell, in the early 1600s by 6 or 7 people including Dekker, Heywood, Chettle, Shakespeare, and Munday.
It was never performed, because Jacobean England was a police state and it was banned by the censor.

Sir Ian McKellen performing a monologue from Shakespeare’s Sir Thomas More on the Stephen Colbert show. Never have I heard this monologue performed with such a keen sense of prescience. Nor have I ever been in this exact historical moment.TY Sir Ian, for reaching us once again.

worth noting that the second rich people stopped being afraid of mobs tearing them limb from limb, they stopped building libraries and opera houses and stuff and started ripping the copper wiring out of the walls of society instead

Soooo, I wrote a funny, magical cozy mystery set in Ordinary, Oregon. The main character is snakes-on-her-head, stony-gaze, hero-hater Medusa. Pre-order's up, and everything! www.devonmonk.com/gorgon-with-...

Walmart just became a trillion dollar company.
Its owners, the Waltons, are billionaires many many times over.
The starting pay at Walmart is below the living wage.
Many of its employees have to work two jobs and rely on SNAP.
It’s time for a universal basic income
Abolish the billionaire class

Outside our cabin up at Clear Lake a couple weekends ago. Did not dine outside, though I did have an overwhelming desire to smash that ice with a hammer. (reminder to self: always pack hammer.)
