Senior detective Dean is on the case and ready to dig up the bodies of Oscar years long since past to find out what went wrong (or right). He's looking forward to investigating the case of the 1985 Academy Awards.

Just gonna point out that the people who are resigning from Heritage Foundation NOW were fine with Project 2025.
Quitting because of a right-wing slapfight about exactly how much Nazism is acceptable is not the same as quitting because you fixed your moral compass.

Anyway watch Star Trek Lower Decks which has TWO great examples of this just within its core quartet nevermind when it expands outward
What are some of your favorite portrayals of strictly platonic male-female friendships on TV or movies? Not a "will they or won't they?" Just platonic.

If your Christianity isn't oriented around bringing down the powerful, liberating the oppressed, feeding the poor, and sending the rich away empty, the Theotokos says you are doing it wrong.

Yknow what. Hell yeah. Playlist of (broadly) my favorite new songs of the year. Lots of these are here to stand in for the albums they live on (much more an albums guy than a playlist guy) but fun to share nonetheless

If you are trans you will always have a home with me. Unconditionally. May we soon live in a world not governed by hatred, ignorance and bigotry.

Rewatched Phantom Thread for the first time in… at least 5 years? And it’s still just as alluring and off-putting as I remember it. Also the prettiest movie of the 2010s probably.

Ever since I saw One Battle After Another, I've thought about what it means that this is PTA's first movie set in the present century since Punch-Drunk Love. So, I wrote an essay about One Battle After Another and Bugonia and a year of movies that grapple with the ugliness of present-day America.

In a year that has beaten myself and so many down with the abject tragedy of *gestures vaguely*, One Battle After Another has been a genuine guiding light. I’ve seen it 3 times and each time I cry earlier and earlier. There IS a better way forward. We just have to fight for it.

Very legitimately my favorite episode of the show we’ve ever done. I’ve never heard Morgan get more excited than getting to mention bones syndrome on air.
We boldly went! For this lecture, your hosts are joined by writing duo @hivemindactual.bsky.social @collinkelly.bsky.social @jacksonlanzing.bsky.social to discuss Star Trek: The Last Starship, their previous Star Trek Work, NYX (2024), and Revolutionary Texts!

Another US airstrike in Somalia happened yesterday, near Kismayo. AFRICOM released no casualty figures or other information beyond saying it "targeted" al-Shabaab. This is by my count the 87th strike or series of strikes announced by AFRICOM this year, by far the most ever in a year in Somalia.
