I’m old enough to remember when Donald Trump took out a full page ad demanding the execution of the accused attackers of the Central Park Jogger. Somehow I doubt he’ll do the same for the Cornell 7.

After a long day at the aquarium, the otters help tidy their toys away. Payment is made promptly and entirely in ice cubes.
The Hadestown folks might not sue but Taylor’s never getting the T in her EGOT now. Theatre kids have the kind of memory where they can perfectly perform the choreo from some show they did 20 years ago, Tay. And if this was somehow unintentional it just proves how uncultured she is.
Holy fuck Taylor Swift with some blatant Hadestown melodic plagiarism. Anais Mitchell about to be paid, paid.

Seriously, i would do just about anything to see Trump do jazz hands and bellow “THE ARISTOCRATS!” right now.

I met her once. I can imagine how dispiriting the past years have been. She once said: "Far too many people are looking for the right person, instead of trying to be the right person." I'm grateful I got to tell her how much of a hero she was to me, but now we all have to carry the work forward.

Here’s baby me at a midnight screening of Rocky Horror dressed up like a jailbait Magenta. All we can do is try to pay Tim Curry’s work forward so the next generation of wonderful weirdos can feel seen too. Don’t dream it. Be it.
It’s impossible to overstate what Tim Curry meant to me. His work showed us that there is transformative power in creating fictional worlds that manifest real community where anyone can belong. He had range, an inimitable laugh and made everyone question their place of the Kinsey scale. Rest easy.
Tim Curry and Dolly Parton have taught us not only that you should be bigger, weirder, gayer, and freakier, but also that those qualities are what people will love about you. The things that make you strange and amazing are the things that will resonate with other strange and amazing people
I really cannot think of a greater honor than to have the Muppets say this about you upon your passing
I think another lesson to take from the loss of both Dolly and Tim Curry is that neither of them took themselves seriously but they took the work dead serious that's the most important thing pour all of yourself into the craft but have fun and don't get an ego.

Dolly Parton, among a thousand other amazing things she did in her life, gifted over 330 million books to kids through her Imagination Library program. Her passing is a tremendous loss to the world, but you can support the program today to keep it going imaginationlibrary.com
Dolly Parton's Imagination Library | USA, UK, IE, CA, AU
Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library is a book gifting program that mails free books to children from birth until they begin school in participating areas.

Remember that if you got the Moderna Covid vaccine, you have Dolly Parton to thank, she gave the largest individual contribution toward their research to make it possible.
Long before I wrote video games about sapphic witches for a living, I was a fairy at the Georgia Ren Faire. I was in charge of the Maypole. My excitement for this movie knows no bounds - and you can still back it on Kickstarter until tomorrow night!
Hi. The Guild Renfaire'd is officially the #1 Kickstarter movie of all time. Back before tomorrow at 8pm PST. :D ABSOLUTELY BLOWN AWAY THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!!
Just finished The Future by @naomialderman.bsky.social and I haven’t loved a book this much in a very long time. Go read it! It’s the book for this moment in time, and maybe the next, if we’re lucky.
Hello I reinvented Cliff’s Notes so adults can revert to being lazy 8th graders who didn’t do their homework. Give me a billion dollars now.
Axios writer: I melted my brain with AI. Not only can I no longer read, but I don't even understand the purpose of reading anymore. Here's how you can also do this. www.axios.com/2026/08/11/r...
As anyone in publishing will tell you, women do not resist reading books by men, but men will often dismiss books by women. This is not a publishing problem or a failure to target men. It's a misogyny problem.
This is the mood of your electorate. Match it or lose. www.gadgetreview.com/salem-brough...
