If I have to choose between a soulless mega-corp and a fascist regime? Slight advantage to the mega-corp. No one cares about their tax status.

It’s more an “enemy of my enemy” sort of situation.  I can’t imagine siding with Disney in almost anything, but damn if DeSantis didn’t find a way.

There is no long term plan except to stay elected. 

I’m very glad it went this way. I’m also sad because it will change nothing.

Sweden’s King Carl XVI Gustaf and Crown Princess Victoria are father and daughter, not a couple except in that there are two of them. Almost none of these people look relaxed or even happy to be there. Since most royals are not functional heads of state, they are probably keen on keeping their heads down and living…

Kate Middleton

Ummm...

DeSantis is burning down Florida to help propel him to the national stage, except that when he gets out-primaried he’s going to be stuck with the ashes.

The biggest true risk facing Florida right now is climate change and lack of affordable homeowner’s insurance. So what does he focus on? Banning books about subjects that make him personally uncomfortable; persecuting teachers, healthcare workers and all women of childbearing age; drag shows; and...Mickey Mouse. What…

I can’t even come up with the right adjective anymore. Evil? Cruel? Disgusting? Careless? Crass? Abhorrent? Uncaring? Morally bankrupt? Morally corrupt? Racist? Misogynistic? Hateful? Craven? Feckless?

Huh?

“whether he will meet face-to-face with his father and older brother, Prince William.”

The new channel is great! The old channel is great! My only concern is that the sun no longer rises in the Lofi Girl universe. I wonder if the guy behind the account felt obligated to sync the day/night cycles between the two channels so he just decided to go with all night.

Awesome news. I have so many students who listen to the Lofi Girl stream; we sometimes even have it on in class during writing workshops. I’m going to check to see if they’ve already heard about Synth Boy; this was news to me.

Mediocre in what way? As an actor? He’s a pretty good actor. As a person? He seems like a nice guy, and he backs good causes.

I feel ya Chris. Not like I’m in a position to do so, but if I was offered a hosting job at SNL, I’d decline for the exact same reason. Anxiety sucks.

I can imagine SNL could be especially difficult if you suffer from anxiety so this is more than fair enough but for something not live, Chris Evans has shown great talent for comedy in undoubtedly his greatest role, that will he will likely never surpass. I of course refer to Not Another Teen Movie.

Which will almost certainly go directly to the 6-3 Federalist Society Supreme Court. While I would like to think that reason will prevail, the overturning of Roe v Wade does not inspire confidence in the system.

And then when it goes up to the 5th Circuit and gets upheld? If it goes to the Supreme Court and gets upheld?  The ruling goes into effect Friday...

I don’t think you want to go down the path of “whoever the President is gets to decide what is and isn’t Constitutional or legal and can just do whatever they want because they ‘have an army.’”
