Scouting America says transgender kids are still welcome after Pete Hegseth claimed they weren’t "We have transgender people in our program, and we’ll have transgender people in our program going forward,” the group's CEO, Roger Krone, said.

‘Testament of Ann Lee’ Will Have No Physical Media Release — World of Reel I didn’t particularly like “Ann Lee,” which does have its fair share of fervent defenders, but there’s a concerning trend with Disney and their push to phase out physical media.

The dawn of the post-literate society And the end of civilisation

"The world is entering a post-literate age, with huge implications for societies’ politics & structure.

The smartphone’s emphasis on photos & vids has driven a decline in reading, a consequence of which is that a growing number of people are unable to grapple w/ complex ideas and nuanced arguments"

I know A Love Supreme is one of those three or four Baby’s First Jazz records that even people who hate jazz will listen to, but you know what, things reach that status for a reason and I just pushed a great many negative thoughts outside my head waking up to it.

Preach, sister!

This was my response when my agents asked if I wanted to pitch on this reboot back in November. I really hope more creatives do the same so that the likes of Max Landis are all they can hire. I may not make an honest buck but I’m a hundred per cent American and I don’t work for no two-bit Nazi.
