So true. It seems like they think they can "moneyball" their way to great content, but what we end up with is some Ryan in another big-budget action thriller that everyone watches but no one remembers. Maybe this will motivate them to get weird.

It’s fascinating how wide the gap is between polling and betting markets right now

Fuck your ChatGPT, if I want to see a caricature of myself I will make the effort to go to the seaside and pay Β£15 for a cruel man to give me body dysmorphia like we’ve always done.

A post on threads from user stephens_bens. It reads 'I'll always remember an interview with Steve Buscemi on Bulleye, Jesse Thorn asked him "As an actor with many decades of varied and outstanding roles across your career, does it ever bother you that one of the things you will most be remembered for is a 3-second gif in which you're wearing a backwards baseball cap and carrying a skateboard?"
And without missing a beat, Buscemi replied "I'm carrying *two* skateboards."
And you know what? He is.'
Below that is a screen cap of Buscemi's famous "fellow kids" moment.

this is a fine article, very respectful of the show and what it does well, but what I wouldn't fucking give, really, for articles like this to just say EVEN ONCE, that all the things this show does so perfectly ARE WHAT THE ROMANCE GENRE DOES PERFECTLY.

Strongly encourage you, yes you, to hit pause when you’re experiencing the desire to nitpick or correct someone else’s post today. Is the post actually wrong? Or are you just looking for something that you feel like you can fix? Is the nitpick necessary?

This sure seems more like the tyranny the Constitution is supposed to protect against than forgiving student loans.

I think we’ve got better and more culturally-varied street food than I could have imagined, cool jackets galore, and drugs that make us think we’re really fast and strong before they kill us.

Dr. King did amazing things, but often we only talk about his successes. Dr. King also had some "failures", and they are important to discuss because we often learn a great deal from failure. And failure can inform or grow a movement, like Albany, Georgia's failure did for Dr. King. /1

Claudette Colvin was a magnificent person.

More of us would know her name if we did not live in a culture and media environment that too often requires perfection from victims as a toll for legibility, for their humanity and the violation thereof to matter.

To honor her memory, let's do better. πŸ–€
