On the road with the book. Watching a lot of tv on planes. As someone who - with maybe two exceptions - can't stand superhero movies, Lanterns is the best TV show I've seen in eons (well, Lanterns and Furious together. Both awesome Fall surprises). Lanterns is also the best-cast show on television.

I did not!

The fourth was Bama MAGA Marlon Humphrey who has spent a career being corny

F*cking hysterical. The Ravens players were all given invites to stand with Trump today at a Baltimore photo op and only four showed. Three of the four were the punter, the kicker, and the long snapper. I’m dyin’ 😂

shes saying this on the same network that just interviewed a guy who said he spent 18 days in heaven chilling with jesus christ

It has been a difficult stretch of authoritarianism - of all political stripes - on the march. But "the power of tyranny is overestimated (not in the short run, but in the long run), and can be overcome by the unity and the determination of apparently powerless people." - H. Zinn

"Artists for AI" like Kelly Clarkson are corporate robots - basically AI in bellowing, human form - and leave the word "artist" absent of meaning. Art if nothing else is about intentional creation. This is an "artist's" call for artistic cyanide.

We're basically trafficking children.
