Optical illusion of a woman bent over some papers. Her sunglasses are pushed up and she is wearing a hair band so the top of her head looks exactly like a Muppet face
Sorry I know the world is in a terrible fix but I've been laughing at this for ten minutes now

Congratulations, WaPo, you did it, you published the worst take
Toad settles into bed, ready to take life easy. From "Tomorrow" In *Days with Frog and Toad*
“Tomorrow,” said Toad, “I can just take life easy.” Toad went back to bed.
It's always time for this anti-fascist moment from Casablanca.
Quick question does anyone know how to restore virtue to a decaying society
It’s tiring that we are increasingly stuck organizing our intellectual lives around arguing for the value of having an intellectual life
Nothing but love and respect for my captain, who isn't debasing himself and setting fire to his entire legacy.

Trump's talent pool
I wrote about the first national book banning bill, which effectively seeks to erase trans people. At the end I include a link to let your reps know that you oppose this bill and all it stands for. lithub.com/why-we-must-...

When you think about it for more than 5 seconds, it really is both insane and outrageous that *HILLARY CLINTON* - a woman who apparently has never met with nor corresponded with Jeffrey Epstein was one of the first people deposed.
Taking care of a dying parent during (gestures broadly) whatever all *this* is can be exhausting. Sending love to all my compatriots. I see you. ❤️
A+ State of the Union counterprogramming by TCM.
I think undoing Citizen's United would be very culturally normal.
Finish. Him.
"Am I REALLY going to get up at 5am for Hockey?" she asked herself, already knowing the answer.
The plot of A View to a Kill has Bond trying to stop Christopher Walken from destroying Silicon Valley and let me just say HOLD UP JAMES LET THE MAN COOK
The first step to dealing with Trumpism is to ignore everything they say and only watch what they do.
A painting of a white and gray birdlike figure flying on an ice rocket like thing dumping snow out of a bucket on a village surrounded by leafless trees Cold Remedios Varo Original Title: Frio Date: 1948

just realized that we grew up in the 1970s and 1980s saying “take a chill pill,” and now every night i do indeed take a little chill pill

This really is a great picture:
Virginia Guiffre should still be alive and seeing the results of her rare courage and integrity. She spoke out against the horrific crimes of some of the most powerful and corrupt men in the world when there was no incentive to do so, and finally, the world is following her lead, much too late.
This eulogy is so keen, and heartbreaking. I’m scared for us, y’all. It’s not just the Washington Post (or even just books coverage); across the board, incisive and productive coverage of the arts is being erased.
This is what authors should be doing across the board. Put it in your contract and take a stand. ❤️

Prince Andrew arrested over Epstein ties on the same day South Korea’s ex-president was jailed for life for attempting a coup.
