🧟‍♂️ Frankenstein's Leaf 🍁

I’m rereading the STAR TREK novel DARK MIRROR by @diane.dianeduane.com. It’s the TNG take on the Mirror Universe and it has one of my favorite things in all of Trek, not just Trek Lit, the whole franchise.

Picard reads his counterpart’s Shakespeare collection and notes how it’s DIFFERENT there

Manny Jacinto: "I feel like with a lot of the franchises that we currently have, it’s missing the romance. It’s missing a lot of love and relationships. We have the big fight scenes and the origin stories of these heroes and whatnot, but they don’t really have a relationship with other people."

This Year in Political Abdication Leadership failures, neglect and what to aim for in 2026 Support my Opinion Writing with a Tip At the beginning of April 2025, New Jersey Senator Cory Booker made a marathon speech on the Washington...

Hey you

this is how I find out my local florida district didn't flip 🥲🥲

The fact that he thinks it's a flex that he's taken 3 cognitive tests is amazing.

Also, the general vibe is like he's 4 years old taking medical tests his parents brought him to without explaining: he doesn't understand the purpose, he doesn't know anyone, he just has to endure them.

CONFIRMED: Eileen Higgins, a Democrat, will be the new mayor of Miami.

She'll be the city's first Democratic mayor since the 1990s. She flipped the office from Republicans, and does so easily. She leads the DeSantis-endorsed Emilio González 59/41 right now with most ballots counted.

It's like they are actively trying to kill the tourist industry.

Jfc
No one should ever have to hand over that amount of private information for any reason!!! and I hope it kills tourism so fast it makes their head swim

guys I had to see this from like eight different people before I fully processed that it wasn't The Onion and that in fact Marco Rubio is out here getting mad about woke fonts while multiple wars and famines and genocides are happening on his watch

Gotta admit "the font is DEI" is a stage of absurdity I could not have predicted
