It’s super cool that they unleashed the Blackest Super Bowl halftime show in recent memory while Orange Cancer was in the building. I wish they’d gone even farther with it, though.

This is the most relevant article to NIH and research cuts I’ve seen.

For 10 years, I worked all hours and sacrificed my personal life to run a 99 seat non-profit theatre. In the back half of my tenure, I didn't take a vacation in 6 years!

The LEAST our senators and reps could do is WORK LATE ON A FRIDAY WHILE THE GOVERNMENT IS BEING DISMANTLED.

Honestly, all major platforms have good and bad people. What I like about Reddit--and this place, so far--is the underlying machinery isn't actively promoting the latter.
Reddit good.

Redditors questionable.

Just have to say that the $Trump meme coin is a gift to all of us who are not fans of his.

It’s just a matter of time until a lot of people lose money from this.

I’m a crypto fan. This is not crypto any more than Madoff was just buying and selling shares of stock

Rogue One was phenomenal and it has aged wonderfully. I can’t wait for Andor season 2.

I also love Ewan McGregor as Obi-Wan.

How about an exquisite Obi-Wan movie from Gary Whitta, Tony Gilroy and Gareth Edwards?
