Aubrey Plaza is out promoting two movies: Megalopolis: "We had the premiere last night, and I was sitting around going, like 'I cannot believe I'm in this movie, it's insane'". My Old Ass "It's a very funny title for a movie that is so, like, heartwarming... I cry every time I see it"

🚨 CAUTION! 🚨 the famously honorable chris rufo has his lawyer sending threatening letters now. so, whatever you do, DO NOT spread around the fact that he had an ashley madison account. i cannot stress enough how much he does not want you to associate his name with the affair website ashley madison.

Christopher F. Rufo X 8 @realchri... 18h The latest smear campaign against me has collapsed. After receiving a letter from my lawyers, left-wing operative Lauren Windsor has begun to delete her false and defamatory posts. It's a start, but we are retaining all legal options. Thank you, @pnjaban and team.

This German town had named Hitler as an honorary citizen back in the 1930s. Some students discovered this and put together a petition, got the required 1500 signatures to get the city council to vote and revoke the honor. Good news, right? www.dw.com/en/students-...

BlueSky has a 300 character limit, which is less than the other services I cross-post to. This will be a problem when we eventually get peering working across twitter-like systems.

Sometimes you run into a paragraph that really speaks to you: slate.com/culture/2024...#TheRingsOfPower#TomBombadil

Tom’s penchant for breaking into song like a character in a musical brings up another subject for debate. Not every Tolkien fan loves Tom Bombadil. “When I would sit around with my friends talking about The Lord of Rings in my teens and 20s,” a friend told me, “we all hated Bombadil. It was a Gen X thing, because he was basically a hippie living the woods with his old lady, and we were against hippies. My kids, on the other hand, adore him.” Some readers find the hobbits’ encounter with Tom in the woods to be a tedious sidetrack from the main story.
Others simply have an understandable aversion to people who go around saying things like "Hey! Come merry do! derry do! my darling!"
