I just finished a rewatch of Orphan Black. Still not convinced that there weren’t multiple actresses playing all the clones. (There are not enough superlatives for Tatiana Maslany.)

Oh it’s so good! I’ve seen it twice and I’m still not convinced she actually played all those characters! (I mean, obviously she did, and she was BRILLIANT at imbuing every single clone with a unique identity.)

Oh, dear one! I’ve been holding you in my heart without knowing details since you began cancelling some stuff. This is impossibly hard; you aren’t alone. Thank you for sharing this news with us. May you also experience solace and consolation in this season.

I’m definitely contributing to the Orphan Black ranking!

In case you were wondering when the comedians and educators are silenced and under attack, that’s when you should be VERY worried

the thing to understand is that for many people the violence of order maintenance is simply not seen as violence in the first place

"I think it's worth to have a cost of unfortunately some gun deaths every single year so that we can have the 2nd Amendment.”

Nah.

Violence is never worth its cost.

Never.

Lord, have mercy.

The problem with allowing guns everywhere is that no one is safe anywhere.

Sit with this, then read the whole thread.

Then go throw something.

I’ve discovered the Orphan Black side of Bluesky - hooray!

I’m still not convinced it was the same actress! (I truly know it was, but she was *so remarkable*!!)

Every time I’ve seen him in other shows, I automatically root for him - because he’s Donny!

(I’ve just begun a rewatch of the series and you still can’t convince me it’s one actress playing all those women. Give Tatiana Maslany ALLLLL the awards!)

We won’t notice it at first

Maybe an outbreak of cholera in southwest Kansas goes undetected

Perhaps the number of flu related deaths ticks up just a bit each year

But-ultimately, inexorably-the destruction of the CDC will lead to countless deaths

All because of two men

Trump and RFK, Jr

remember folks, we cant have gun restrictions because if we do the federal government will occupy our streets, imprison people without due process, ship dissidents to foreign gulags and things of that nature

Important thread!

Did the research equate “religious” with “Christian”?

I ask as someone who firmly advocates for Christian communities to have more rigorous vetting of volunteers/leaders - but my assumption would have been that predators target religious communities of many faiths.

DO NOT SULLY THE BEAUTIFUL MOMENT FROM THAT FILM WITH THIS ANALOGY.

ASH!

Nothing like your spouse sending this to you in the middle of the workday

Every time I hope they will kiss. “This time, surely!”

Also, Killmonger’s death speech in the original does me in without fail.

It’s really fun!

@uccmediajustice.org !!

maybe there's still some good left in this world after all

You would be great at this!

Did this guy never listen to “Cat’s Cradle”?

Oooof yes

Public school funding doesn’t allow for replacing those charts more than once every 20 years.
