His name will live forever :)
Well, thank you kindly, sir, and more to the point, thanks for writing your invaluable book!
Many thanks to @publicbooks.bsky.social for publishing this piece, in which Urmila Seshagiri and I discuss (a) del Toro's idiosyncratic (to put it kindly) adaptation of "Frankenstein," (b) adaptations of "Frankenstein" in general, and even (c) adaptations in general. All in under 3000 words!
Finally a law that will protect girls from having to compete with trans women driving cars tiny.cc/9wiz001
To be fair, he's ecstatic that he solved the Nancy Guthrie case
Not the worst thing about this video but just gotta say that OF COURSE it's Matthew Tkachuk putting that medal on Patel
Lots of fun right through all six seasons (and one of the very few SF franchises that takes gravity seriously)
Ha, well, your timing was impeccable. (And it's not even vodka they're complaining about!)
I thought you were kidding about the food stamps and soda-- and then this morning I see this in the Bezos Post: tiny.cc/g0dz001. I mean, did you know yesterday that this article was in the hopper for publication today?
Going to go punch a hole in a wall now
Hive mind question: does anyone have contact info for Kathryn Allan, the writer on disability and science fiction, who used to tweet as @BleedingChrome?
I remember when he took everyone's bullets
Just as Donald Trump tempts us to be nostalgic for the wisdom and eloquence of Dan Quayle, and Pam Bondi tempts us to be nostalgic for the sagacity of Alberto Gonzales or the rectitude of John Mitchell, the culture vacuum on the American right is almost enough to make us nostalgic for Allan Bloom.
It's almost as if Bari Weiss's "free speech" thing was a grift from start to finish
Seems odd that the dudes who want to smash the administrative state are also the dudes who want to build concentration camps throughout the US
Steven Miller is going to appear under a banner reading "Mission Accomplished"
It was funny because it's true. In fact if I had a kid who turned out like that I'd trade him for placebos.
Everyone who fluffed this little monster-wannabe, beginning with that pathetic Rod Dreher, has committed a crime against humanity
I am so old I remember Arthur Schlesinger Jr. getting all het up and panicky about the term "gorgeous mosaic" because it wasn't "melting pot." Ah, the enduring legacy of reasonable centrism.
I'll take "completely predictable things" for $800, Ken
Academic freedom is all about phrenologists being invited to campus with calipers of their own design to measure students' heads for criminal tendencies.
Trump now readying the bone saws for journalists who hurt his feelings
To be fair, little Marco is renowned for his groundbreaking derivations of Kepler's laws of planetary motion
I am aware of all internet traditions and therefore know that you do not, under any circumstances, "gotta hand it to them," but it's still pretty impressive that they managed to find a #2 who is as much of a bleeding pustule of a human being as his master
And Samuel Moyn to the white courtesy phone
Apparently ICE isn't from the Gestapo region of Germany so it's just sparkling secret police
Weird! We saw it Nov 24 and they came racing out of the gate and never let up. My only disappointment was the decision to play Pozzo as Foghorn Leghorn.
Winters' and Reeves' pacing was *incredible* right from the get-go.
Yep
When you take the subway or go to an INS office, Brimelow wrote, "You find yourself in an underworld that is not just teeming, but is almost entirely colored." Check out his book *Alien Nation*, which is basically a blueprint for the spittle-flecked Nosferatu guy now running our country.
