TIL, via the @danaschwartz.bsky.social podcast Noble Blood, that Peter Weller (aka RoboCop) is also a historian of Italian Renaissance Art and I'm so shook I can't even come up with a good joke about it.

like lollll honestly I respect her hustle because she is not even pretending to be a "geek" anymore and you know what, good for her!

olivia munn's publicist deserves a pulitzer prize for this rebrand.

this is great I'm so glad that JON HAMM is finally able to stop worrying about his appearance.

Will Forte remembering Val Kilmer is incredible

Screenshot of Noble Blood podcast about Cyrus the Great and its “information” page reading as follows: Cyrus the Great of Persia wanted to conquer the Massengetae people and, through cunning, he killed the son of their warrior-queen, Tomyris. It was a bad move.

Literal YES, QUEEN. Love listening to @danaschwartz.bsky.social

"do audio books count??" what are you even talking about. count for what. read books with your eyes or listen to them, who is keeping score. enjoy a great story, entertain yourself, feel inspired, pass the time. art is not meant to be a competition with an imaginary score-keeper.

Agnes, Mary, and Mary Magdalene Podcast Episode · Noble Blood · 03/25/2025 · 29m

Of course, it was its own scandal that the King's mistress was being used as a model for the Virgin Mary..... New episode of Noble Blood, available now. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/n...

Paintings featuring Agnes Sorel with a breast exposed were using her as a model for a classic type of painting known as a "Madonna Lactans," or "Nursing Madonna" -- paintings featuring Mary nursing the infant Jesus.

I've seen a fun fact going around the internet that Agnes Sorel had her dresses specifically tailored to expose her favorite boob. Unfortunately, that seems like an unsourced misconception.

[hegseth] Just CONFIRMED w/CENTCOM we are a GO for mission launch.

[friend who once got a text from hegseth where he accidentally called the grinch the grink] was the grink there?

there is a troublingly large collection of movie where an adult woman falls in love with the joie de vivre of a man with the mental state of a child, and, as an adult woman, I can tell you that a childlike state of wonder combined with an inability to do basic tasks is not actually an aphrodisiac

hahahahahaahahah

Elf is a great movie, and one of the most recent additions to the canon of iconic christmas movies, but I cannot get onboard with the love story. that man has the energy and vibe of a child and zooey deschanel should not be fucking him!!!

Do You Like Your History With Imaginative Leaps or Grounded in Fact? Novelized accounts of historical figures’ lives are hugely popular. But do we really want to draw back the curtain on history and find people talking and acting the way we do?

This article is the saltiest personal takedown I have read in a long time! A joy to find a genuine hater in the wild (complimentary) www.nytimes.com/2025/03/07/b...

dazzled by the clearly one-sided hatred that Jeremy Strong has for Kieran Culkin. I just *know* in private, Jeremy Strong has called him "a clown"

this is so meaningless, but the "you can do anything" "I know" exchange from WICKED that they used in the trailers and in the Oscar montage is NOT IN THE MOVIE!!! They cut two different scenes together! The "I know" is from the middle of the dialogue part of Defying Gravity! trailer fraud!

seems like one of those "personal liberties" he's such a fan of would be letting writers write whatever opinions they want?

The right wing woman is not insincere in her politics, but she *is* tactical: she believes that sexual and reproductive service to right wing men will earn her their protection, affection, and material support. She is wrong.

humbly submitting Will Forte as the most underrated SNL cast member

but how will I know if prose is luminous or not?!?!?!?!

this is the Pope's not like us

for all of the talk about "leftist language policing," they're not the ones out here.... literally banning words 1984-style

every commercial for AI is like:

"are you capable of checking the weather app on your phone on your own? yaa didn't think so :)))))"

Jenny Nicholson's four hour video about the star wars hotel should have been nominated for best documentary feature I'm not even kidding
