Barry Lyndon and The Shining both feature a main character briefly encountering two confusing homosexuals. Film scholars call this the Kubrick Gays.

we, in the United States, through Trump’s mass deportation scheme, have engaged in abductions and torture for the past year, none of it in secret, much of it attested to in legal documents. there is nothing to expose, only to face.

The Rocky Road to Dublin was an inspired choice as it was a song that was originally popularised in English Music Halls that exploited the mid Victorian fad of the popularity of Irish balladeers in England

You want to hear how Prince's 1999 directly shaped Michael and Quincy's work on Thriller? Check out the incredible production on this episode of Switched on Pop that I got to guest on, where we *really* broke it down. switchedonpop.com/episodes/why...

We are parents of a trans kid and our family takes this very, very personally. If you intentionally make life harder for our beloved daughter, it’s EXTREMELY hard to think of you as an ally, to say the least. @amyklobuchar.com - you still send us requests for money, while hurting our kid. Disgusted.
Here are the 28 Dem Senators who voted to advance the first federal ban on trans athletes & a federal definition of sex that would make trans & intersex people non-existent: Angela Alsobrooks (MD), Tammy Baldwin (WI), Richard Blumenthal (CT), Lisa Blunt Rochester (DE), Chris Coons (DE), ->
By a vote of 76-23, S 1071 passes the motion to proceed to the motion to concur. Won't know who voted for this until the roll call is uploaded, but safe to say it passed with the support of at least 24 members of the Democratic caucus. (Rand Paul probably voted nay and Steve Daines has been absent).

Sinners was just an outright awesome film in an age of Marvel garbage, one that rewards people who love film, even generous in giving an encore scene to those who watched all the way through the credits.

~1/2 cup dry white wine simmered until reduced by half, ~1/2 cup heavy cream, simmer until starting to thicken, grate in 2-3tbsp pecorino or parm until desired thickness, stir in sausage to come to temp, then cooked pasta and whatever herb's in the fridge, finish with a squeeze of lemon off the heat
