I was afraid that would be the answer (that LEGO is correct). And I agree with your secondary point.

my god. this has to stop, this all has to stop. we are in the clutches of actual monsters.

Asking for a student: According to LEGO, the brand name should always be ALL-CAPS. On the official site — thelegomovie.com — they capitalize it: The LEGO Movie. But neither IMDB nor Wikipedia can be bothered to capitalize it. In an academic essay, I assume it should be capitalized. Yes?

I've never imagined an Olivia Rodrigo / Magnetic Fields connection, but the world is a now a better place for it.

Hegseth keeps saying we are untouchable and invincible and we have total dominance so I don’t know how this could happen.

Trump and Hegseth know exactly what happened with the bombing of the girls school. This “investigation” is a smoke screen because they know the attention span of our media cycles, so they will drag it out until they stop getting asked about it. Which is usually 48 hours or so.

Former President Barack Obama on Rev. Jesse Jackson:

"He was talking about everyone who was left out, everyone who was forgotten, everyone who was unseen, everyone who was unheard, and in that sense, he was expressing the very essence of what our democracy should be."

Preach!

We used to have a real President. A President with a conscience. A President we could respect. A President who didn't need to lie, cheat, and steal awards, but who earned them with integrity and vision and service.

All of our living presidents who still have a sense of decency gathered to honor Rev. Jesse Jackson.

Respect recognizes respect.

Amen!

I hope some of you find this thread useful. I did not enjoy putting it together.

“To understand what happened to Sarah Stock—and to the legions of credulous men who thought they’d found their queen—you have to understand the tradwife industrial complex, that peculiar corner of the internet where women make six figures telling other women not to have careers.”

What Does Russia Have on Trump? Americans Deserve an Answer As Russia reportedly shares intelligence with Iran that could endanger American forces, the White House chooses to ease pressure on Moscow instead of confronting it.

Ukraine offers to help defend the West from Iranian drones.

That's what the Dardennes do, and do with what seems like effortless virtuosity. THE SON (LE FILS) is one of my five favorite films of all time, and it's a crying shame that it's not easily available. It's my personal #1 request of the Criterion Collection.

A DOJ source says FBI agents found the woman who accused Trump of sexually assaulting her as a child to be credible:

"They would not have interviewed her four times if they thought she was lying."
