Teen artists portrayed their lives β€” some adults didn't want to see the full picture "What is it like to be a teen right now?" Young artists explored that question for two different exhibitions of their work this summer. But on the National Mall, their work was deemed too political.

β€œPelton said Smithsonian officials told them they covered it up because they were "afraid that somebody was going to walk by and see 'Free Palestine' on our mural and get mad and hurt us. And I'm like, 'maybe we are not the problem in that situation.'"

Wait, hold up β€”

Are you trying to tell me you DO NOT have to fire thousands of employees and destroy your definitive franchises and shutter studios every three months?

I am grieving the barbarism that is going to unfurl from all this. People are going to die. Livelihoods gone. All to feed a corrupt kleptocracy.

I see every day up close how different it is from the first time around. There are no guardrails. A disaster. I’m sorry we have to live through this.

I saw this stupid meme a few years ago and it's possible I've thought about it every day since then.

It was such a fun one to guest on! Generally speaking, I leave it to the VA/Director/Studio to announce roles so I don't get in trouble for spilling something I'm not supposed to.

Got to dip my toe into another part of the My Hero Academia universe and adapted the dub script for Episode 08 of Vigilantes! (Extra thrilled to get to introduce Captain Celebrity to the world. What a tool.)

There’s a form of paranormal investigation where mediums claim ghosts can be made to communicate via changing radio/TV stations to express mood/craft responses/etc…

"This feature has become very popular among people who have no imagination" is perhaps one of the best and most damning things you can say about people who use gen-AI to regurgitate artbarf as if it's anything other than digital particleboard.

If anyone has the right vibe to anchor a Streets of Fire sequel, it's Elijah.

Book challenges remained high in 2024, with nearly 72% initiated not by parents but by pressure groups and decision makers who have been swayed by them. bit.ly/soal-25

Welp. It happened. Our NIH training grant was terminated on Friday.

Just highlighting this incredibly derisive language used in our termination notice.

To focus on the positives, see some of the great things our undergraduates have done over the last couple of years: web.uri.edu/esteemed/

What perfect albums came out when you were 16?

Not me driving around Odessa, Texas at night, scream-singing "Pagan Poetry" and crying about being in love with my straight best friend.
