I experience Taylor Swift mostly through fan edits of shows I like -my favorite has already released some with her new songs...and I love them. This is a very fancy version of that. (complimentary)

Fever star Kelsey Mitchel in the Fever black uniform facing Halibuton the pacer player in the stands he and the rest of the crowd is wearing the red "Now you Know" shirts and he is giving and enthusastic high five to Kelsey after she did another amaizng play.

Kesley Mitchell. Star. Star. Star.

The Pope is the Holy Father because a major skill is driving the vehicle carefully to the destination while tuning out that the kids are fighting like dogs in the back and demanding you sort it out when you have no intention of getting into that squabble unless you absolutely unavoidably have to.

i went to a public school montessori elementary school (there was lottery to get in ) so in class you were grouped with kids at the same level in whatever subject and then magnet schools you had to apply for (plus lottery) for the rest. So everybody in the program wanted to be there. that helped

the line they gave on the Sound of Music tour I went on was that the movie guys wanted the crowd of extras in Salzberg to sing Edelweiss and they were suprised no one knew it.

For those of us who have been aware of anti-vaxxers for a long time, these horrifying names keep popping up…

Like David Geier, not a physician but advocate of chemical castration as “treatment” for autism.

Now Mark Blaxill (not a doctor either), of Age of Autism infamy…

Really disturbing.

I keep thinking The Shriners would be great for this day in age...funny hats, tiny cars, acts of service, day drinking, there has to be something of interest for people 40 and under

I agree it is a bit wild how far some of the younger people take it...but on screen ..its actual actors and of course books ..its not real people...I can tolerate a lot more bad stuff happening to kids in books than on screen in part because sometimes thinking about the kid actor gets in the way

REPORTER: What would you say to those who question whether Sandy should be here next year to coach you guys again?

STEWIE: What Da Fuck

It doesn’t matter how righteous or popular your cause is if you can’t do messaging right to the general population

And refugee resettlement and a host of other social goods now actively targeted for destruction by Elon, Stephen Miller and self-described 'Christian Nationalists.'

Selling out immigrants and trans folk isn't the move. Networking at a Methodist chicken BBQ is the move. bsky.app/profile/leth...

Ohio, a big back Ohio!

Go back to Ohio. Slay!

New "do-re-mi" for Gen Alpha just dropped

that is exactly what I did when I was 16 and worked my first month as a MCL Cafeteria worker. I layed right down on the floor and cried. I knew I was being ridiculous but...also right. I got over it of course..but I still feel in my heart I was correct.

movie poster, large blue letters FIRE the title of the movie and under that "a deepa mertha film" in red on a yellow background on the top third of the poster two Indian women one in her 30s and another early 20s both smiling

book cover. what is Hinduism: A student's introduction, Michael Baltutis top of cover green and white mural of Ganesh sitting with a shelf in front with various tin cans red and green and silver

Michaels Baltutis shows how people live and interact with Hinduism, breaks it up into dual chapters each taking on an different aspect. talks about changes over time. mentioned Deepa Mehta's movie. gave it a watch..also Great! the book helped me appreciate the story so much more.

jokes dealing with the darkness we live in make sense, not caring about Kirk makes sense, pushing forward other groups and people who we should care about makes sense..but pretending that political assassination ever leads to anything good is idiotic, childish, and terrible.

I think we should put forward a bill for the Charlie Kirk Memorial Assault Weapons Ban.

I hear ya. I avoid driving on the highway around my city at all costs because of some insane random experiences I've had..you do what you have to do to make it through the day...if its being afraid of public transport so be it.

anyone who calls folks concerned about the impact of A.I "lazy luddites" really hasn't read up on who the "Luddites" were....lazy was the absolute last thing you would ever call them. They were not against technology just against allowing the use of technology to steal their humanity.

I am a natural centrist..but watching this unfold over my adult life as pushed me so far away from compromise that no one I know will talk to me about it anymore (which is fine I am not intrested in arguing)

Exactly. Exactly. We know there is no compromise to be had on immigration *BECAUSE DEMOCRATS HAVE TRIED TO BROKER ONE FOR 30 YEARS*.

Three f’ing decades! As long as Jerusalem Demsas, who offered another “let’s hear the right out” proposal this week, has been alive!

I agree of course but as a Teamster not only had my union not "stepped up to the moment" they are in lock step with Trump and Hawley and the rest of the jokers.

to be fair its only in the last couple of years history books have been including the War of 1812...The Napoleonic Wars by Alexander Mikaberidze still is selling itself as the first "global history" of the Napoleonic wars..I'd love some Haiti-Louisiana-French type books.. tough subject though

Joanna Bourne books..you get anti napoleon, pro napoleon, anti-terror and pro revolution...from different characters --mostly it is how politics and violence upend lives ..The Rake by Mary Jo Putney has bits about how the end of the war messed up the economy, lots deal with the guilt of war.

I Have Avenged America: Dessalines and Haiti’s Fight for Freedom --Julia Gaffield
Dessalines is often written about as the most bloodthirsty (even in the black jacobins) author gives him his due. Haitian history is too clouded by outside opinion from second and third hand accounts. more please.

Let's Make a Scene Laura Wood
I wanted a happy book that was not boring! fit the bill. everytime I thought to roll my eyes it made me laugh and moved quickly, never bogged down in the tropes. a good time. I plan on reading her next book.

The Psalm Killer Chris Petit
set in the 1970s in Belfast during an outbreak of violence and the early 1980s a police detective attempts to solve crimes that have spilled onto his streets. A thriller that uses the genre instead of the other way around. I really liked it even if it left me paranoid.

Hope Never to See It: A Graphic History of Guerrilla Violence during the American Civil War
Andrew Fialka
FANTASTIC!  the art is great (wonderful use of books can use of the medium ) lots of footnotes, talks about the effects of violence, how fast it can get out of hand

Luther: Read The Word yourself and be free!
Rich Merchants: Universities and the Church are for squares. It is the peasants working the land that who are the "Real Christians"
Peasants: Yea! We agree! Freeeeeedom!
Luther and Rich Merchants: No Not Like That!

Summer of Fire and Blood: The German Peasants' War Lyndal Roper
Written by the same author who wrote a good book on Luther I read.
