The people who review bombed CAPTAIN MARVEL and the people who review boosted MELANIA is a perfect circle.

I AM SO UNWELL (complimentary).

So I finally started watching #Fallout, and to the likely surprise of no one, I'm a confirmed Lucy and the Ghoul shipper now. What's up, my fellow freaks.

Starfleet Academy's Karim Diané Breaks Down Star Trek's Most Unconventional Klingon | Den of Geek Star Trek: Starfleet Academy actor Karim Diané and showrunner Noga Landau dig into Jay-Den's journey in "Vox in Excelso".

I chatted with #StarfleetAcademy's very charming Karim Diané and showrunner Noga Landau about finding a way to embody a very different kind of Klingon warrior for the 32nd century:

Omg it was SO good. Had whole lot of the Malleus Maleficarum though lol

Wuthering Heights Might Have Gone Mad With Influencers and People Are Noticing This is the first time I've noticed people bringing up how many influencers went to an event

Was surprised how many people noticed the abundance of influencers WB invited to the WUTHERING HEIGHTS premiere. I used that to talk about influencers as celebrities, their lack of transparency on the pay for play model, and trying to be "honest" in their reviews.

At this moment I'm feeling very NO (NEGATIVE)

Bridgerton Season 4 Gives Class Struggle a Cinderella Sheen - Reactor It's still Bridgerton, but questions of class division power its fourth season

I found the first half of #Bridgerton Season 4 to be surprisingly charming: Yerin Ha is phenomenal, they’ve made Benedict much less of a jerk than he is in the source material, and I kind of love the show’s attempt to acknowledge that the working class exists. My review at @reactorsff.bsky.social:

Honestly are we being punished in some way.

Post from Yale University with a link to Yale News and a photo of David Brooks with text reading "Yale is launching a new Presidential Senior Fellowship to expand access to the transformative work of universities. As part of this program, author and columnist David Brooks will join the Jackson School of Global Affairs starting February 1. Read more in Yale News"

Post from The Atlantic Communications with a link to a press release about David Brooks, pictured, with text reading "We’re excited to announce that David Brooks is joining The Atlantic as a staff writer. The Atlantic will be the home for all of his writing, and he will also host a new weekly video podcast that will launch later this spring"

Most media headlines right now are like "We are laying off 2/3 of our staff and also the president is our ombudsman now" but somehow David Brooks got two new jobs in one day

Emerald Fennell Always Pictured Jacob Elordi As Heathcliff in Wuthering Heights Emerald Fennell has pictured Jacob Elordi as Heathcliff in her version of ‘Wuthering Heights’ for years — even if it’s not accurate to the book.

Fumbling the bag SO HARD and for what, to protect *Colton*? Ugh.

This doesn’t show up (for me at least) in the preview below, but Amazon is cutting 16,000 human jobs to free up money to build “data centers to compete in the race to dominate artificial intelligence.”

16,000 humans have no job so Amazon can wreck the planet and take more jobs from humans.

Hudson Williams kinda straddling Carney while standing up? They’re both thrilled

Meanwhile, in Canada: One of the Heated Rivalry boys gave one of the show’s fabricated Team Canada Olympics fleeces to the prime minister and this happened

Aziraphale standing guard with his flaming sword while Crowley gets the school kids to safety.

A fan (whom I won’t name unless they say so) asked for art depicting Aziraphale and Crowley protecting school children from ICE in Minnesota.

They’re part of a parent group who’ve been sorting children to and from school in shifts to deter ICE from kidnapping them.
They’re the REAL patriots.
Fuck 🧊

How Bridgerton Season 4 Can Improve on Its Source Material - Reactor The trouble with the book version of Benedict Bridgerton is that... well, he's a jerk.

HBO Max Says ’Heated Rivalry’ Is Huge — So Why Hasn’t It Registered With Nielsen? The answer may come down to how the ratings service classifies the show in its streaming ratings.

HBO Max says “Heated Rivalry” is averaging 9 million viewers per episode to date, but it hasn’t yet made a streaming top 10 chart. That’s probably due to how Nielsen classifies the show - I break it down here.
