You know, when my pal said this, I thought, “It’s probably not a whole hog SONG, I get that the pun is a little—“

Nope, whole entire hog song. Hog ditty. Hog bop. Chanson du cochon.

Honestly, I'm still chuckling about Rolling Stone giving The Life Of A Showgirl five stars. Like, it's got a song about Travis Kelce's hog; that's an automatic one-star deduction right there! The moment the phrase "magic wand" leaves her lips, she topples off the pommel horse.

Goddamn

What are we to make of a man who called for the execution of the American president, and then was executed himself? What are we to make of an NFL that, on one hand, encourages us to “End Racism,” and, on the other, urges us to commemorate an unreconstructed white supremacist? And what of the writers, the thinkers, and the pundits who cannot separate the great crime of Kirk’s death from the malignancy of his public life? Can they truly be so ignorant to the words of a man they have so rushed to memorialize? I don’t know. But the most telling detail in Klein’s column was that, for all his praise, there was not a single word in the piece from Kirk himself.

Words are not violence, nor are they powerless. Burying the truth of the Confederacy, rewriting its aims and ideas, and ignoring its animating words allowed for the terrorization of the Black population, the imposition of apartheid, and the destruction of democracy. The rewriting and the ignoring were done not just by Confederates, but also by putative allies for whom the reduction of Black people to serfdom was the unfortunate price of white unity. The import of this history has never been clearer than in this moment when the hard question must be asked: If you would look away from the words of Charlie Kirk, from what else would you look away?

Just wanted to share this very sweet shot from last night's Emmys of the moment Jeff Hiller won Supporting Actor in a Comedy Series, and the unfeigned delight from his fellow gay nominees Colman Domingo, Michael Urie, and Bowen Yang. Solidarity!

Three years of putting out fires all started with a man on fire.

REVIVAL S1 is now, officially, fully out on Peacock.

I’m not even going to try and put this into words here. But I hope you all get the chance to make your dreams come true with a family as special as this one 🖤🔥🖤🔥 #Revival
