It is a hideous scandal that they can publish a chart as obvious as this and not even mention the words 'covid infections'.

As I said *in 2015* there is no β€œjust cruel and bigoted enough” point on the racism Laffer Curve that will pay out in electoral success and prosperity. There is only the long downward spiral. What have you seen since, that suggests this was wrong?

Mother said my asymmetric arrangement of the blinds in the front room would have made HER grandmother go nuts.
But I am the first neurodivergent in the family, APPARENTLY.
Got yourselves an ND kid?
Start looking at all those family stories from a different perspective.
That kid is a true SCION.

Anathema didn't only believe in ley-lines, but in seals, whales, bicycles, rainforests, whole grain in loves, recycled paper, white South Africans out of South Africa, and Americans out of practically everywhere down to and including Long Island.

I'm glad Mr Campbell (truly a great fave) has posted this, in simple words, and now, so everyone understands; I'm still peeved from when Sam Neill announced his autobiography & that he had HAD cancer, but was doing better & the headlines were 99% "SAM NEILL CANCER SHOCK (oh yeah book released too)".

Friendly reminder: Never be sad on a weekend. Cry during business hours and get paid for your depression. Don't let capitalism win.

If you're not letting depression ruin every aspect of your life, you're doing it wrong

"Really good actor in amazing movie wins movie award for great acting" is not an "upset", unless you were a bookie or leaning into the racism a little too hard @vulture.com, so what's the deal here??

Why is any achievement to do with 'Sinners' reported as either an "upset" or a "surprise" or "unexpected"? (I mean we all know it's shitty racism but come ON, media, get it together).

Sinners is a fantastic original movie with a superb cast, and Michael B Jordan was amazing in it, playing TWINS.
