Timothée Chalamet Under Fire For Dismissive Comments About Traditional Japanese Puppet Theater Form ‘Bunraku’ LOS ANGELES—Facing fierce backlash for remarks deemed deeply ignorant by devoted fans, actor Timothée Chalamet came under fire Monday for dismissive comments about traditional Japanese bunraku puppetr...

“I never want to end up in a position where I’m one of the Ningyōzukai manipulating the arms and legs of this puppet that frankly hasn’t been relevant since the early 17th century,” said the Marty Supreme star

(Last year I saw the used prices were higher than I had imagined, sold the Prius Prime and got a full-EV car, so I only need to take it to the public chargers every couple weeks, let it sit there all day on the slow chargers a few blocks away.)

I had a plug-in hybrid prius in 2020, the models with "Prime" in the name are plug-in, otherwise they're pure gas cars. I live near a bank of public chargers. It was so much more fun to drive on electric that I only used a couple gallons of gas a year, charging its little battery constantly lol.

The way the girls respond with "ooohhhh", "wooooow" and "eh?" to the narrator talking about ancient mushrooms in the intro to Pinponpanpon - "Kinoko" never fails to take me out.

The Roses & Stone Cover. An illustration featuring a man with pale skin and dark hair in a black, open front tunic standing with his arm wrapped around a woman with pale skin and long, dark brown hair in a green dress who is leaning against his chest and holding his tunic, with a border of red roses and a large moon in the background.

There is no marketing I'm more susceptible to these days than any company saying they don't use generative AI in their projects. I'm a sitting duck for that promise even if they're selling graham crackers or masking tape.

I love in ep3 where the retired police woman goes on a date who turns out has a kink that she’s not up for, and the cast the hottest guy they could find for the role, and the way they framed his butt for her reaction shot!! I love it. (I’m only allowing myself one ep at a time so they last longer)

From Pill Mills to Prop Bets: Prediction Markets and Mobile Sports Betting Apps Are Fueling America’s Next Addiction Crisis Against the gamblification of the world.

I see no reason not to look at the online gambling and prediction market craze as a new opioids crisis.

It will wreak havoc on lower-income Americans and leave a trail of destruction and despair in its wake.

The companies are just Purdue Pharma 2.0

This is torture. The US is torturing children. Children whose words and whose art contain infinitely more humanity than the people keeping them detained.

A hand, palm side up, with two mini painted wooden ornaments on it. One has been painted with the book cover Dreaming of You by Lisa Kleypas, while the other has been painted with the stepback cover from the same book, featuring a couple kneeling towards each other on the grass. Stepback artwork is by Max Ginsburg.

we have so many fights on so many fronts and I'm so sick of one of them being "let's see if literally anyone in the so-called opposition party's leadership has a spine today, or if it's the usual sniveling jelly, the usual big words with no action, the usual weaseling & self-deluding gullibility."

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

Defenceless under the night
Our world in stupor lies;
Yet, dotted everywhere,
Ironic points of light
Flash out wherever the Just
Exchange their messages:
May I, composed like them
Of Eros and of dust,
Beleaguered by the same
Negation and despair,
Show an affirming flame.

BTW when I say abolish ICE, I mean abolish it entirely and replace it with exactly nothing. Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free. That's it.

I can't put into words the feeling of watching our government, a hive of evil antisocial filth, the absolute worst humanity has to offer, colliding with the best. Ordinary people trying to help each other, risking everything to stand up for what's plainly, unambiguously fair and right. It's unreal

Huge scandal that Minneapolis has been crawling with terrorists this whole time. They've been living among us undercover as poets and nurses. And would've continued to, had it not been for the work of our bravest child kidnappers

You’re arresting terrified children and using them as bait. Arresting kids getting treatment at doctors’ offices. Blinding protesters. Illegally raiding homes. Making people terrified to leave their homes.

You want to pee in peace?
