Not only does the article not mention why they're dissolving, but they also couldn't be bothered to change the caption on a reused photo from an unrelated article.
A photo of 601 Poydras, the former home of the law firm that is the subject of the article, with a caption clearly meant for another story: "The Pan Am Life building at 601 Poydras Street in the Central Business District can be seen behind a passing street car and commuter in New Orleans, La. Pan American Life Insurance Group suffered a cyber attack in late February, 2021, downing its communications and leaving customers in the dark."

What was your #childhoodcinema

The Avon on Thayer Street in Providence. Every Saturday they had a double-feature matinee with the same films in rotation, and I went there, by myself, every Saturday, so I've seen those 50-70 films dozens of times.

Remember Andrea Yates? Here her loony "spiritual advisor" Michael Woroniecki attempts to persuade concertgoers to not see Kiss and The Plasmatics at Corpus Christi's Memorial Coliseum on March 14, 1983.

Not my house but I know my way around
The living room of the Bunkers on "All in the Family." My mom was on the embarrassingly bad spinoff "Archie Bunker's Place" for a few seasons and I got to sit in Archie's chair on the set when I was 11.

I like this definition, too.
Fascism may be defined as a form of political behavior marked by obsessive preoccupation with community decline, humiliation, or victimhood and by compensatory cults of unity, energy and purity, in which a mass-based party of committed nationalist militants, working in uneasy but effective collaboration with traditional elites, abandons democratic liberties and pursues with redemptive violence and without ethical or legal restraints goals of internal cleansing and external expansion.

Hilton stated this policy back in 2020. I don't know if they started accepting ICE reservations since and have stopped again, or what.

stories.hilton.com/releases/sta...
NEWS RELEASES September 21, 2020 Statement from Hilton Our statement of July 24, 2020 remains true. We believe that hotels should be places of hospitality, and the detainment of migrants, including minors, is not activity that we support or in any way want associated with our hotels. Since that date we have taken a number of positive actions including: Reinforcing our longstanding policy with all owners, management companies and hotel General Managers across the United States Updating and communicating our enforceable, global brand standards to make specific mention of our policy on detainment Reviewing with hotels in our network any possible reservations that could fit this profile and confirming their ongoing compliance with our standards Contacting government officials to reinforce our longstanding policy Supporting the AHLA's related statement on behalf of the industry We have no information to suggest that Hilton properties are currently being used for detainment purposes.

Book cover: "Suicide in the Entertainment Industry" by David K. Fraser. Foreword by Kenneth Anger. Published January 2001. Great book, if a bit morbid, obviously. Focuses on the period 1900-1970, roughly.

Last night I made a reservation at N7 for 5:30pm (!) because, according to Resy, that was all they had available for a two-top.

Come 6:30pm there were six two-tops still open!

Will Trump pardon her?
Between July 2022 and September 2024, [Dallas Humber] served as a leader of the Terrorgram Collective. Through her online activities, Humber actively encouraged people to target victims through assassinations based on their race, religion, sexual orientation, and gender identity, according to U.S. Attorney Eric Grant of the Eastern District of California. She and other members provided technical, "inspirational,” and operational guidance, prosecutors said. Terrorgram Collective-guided criminals committed deadly attacks abroad, including shooting three people at an LGBT bar in Slovakia; killing four victims at two schools in Brazil; and stabbing five people outside of a mosque in Turkey.

"Close Encounters of the Third Kind," which I've never seen, so between that and the Dreyfuss connection, not a good omen. I reject it.
