There is good luck music and there is bad luck music and if you aren’t using this easy witchcraft then you aren’t living life to the fullest.

The third of her top-three entries from The Life of a Showgirl was titled “Elizabeth Taylor.” I can’t be the only scientist on staff here.
When I tell you it’s a really cool time to be a New Yorker…
Wow -- one of the climbers atop the Empire State Building appears to have gotten down on one knee and proposed to the other
New Olivia Rodrigo album is a little love letter to music people. Clever, pretending to be simple.
My mayor is Muslim My bagel is Jewish The Pope’s on our side Toy Story 5
Your inner kid officially dies on the third night in a row that you apply a sticky heating pad to your back before bed.
Great work on the Welker interview. Lots of proactive defensive plays to hold their ground — she played it exactly right going full earnest and producers played it exactly right with the rain as a big part of the final package.
Sir, I can guarantee that bringing the bike onto the subway is the slowest way to get there out of your three options.
And on this, the first official day of “1st Summer,” I want to congratulate New Yorkers for another successful completion of all 18 yearly seasons. Don’t worry, “Relapse Spring” is just a few days away, and “WTF Winter Again?” soon after that.
My new vocal stim is the AOC quote "my goal is to change this country" but in the same line reading as Barbara's "I'm running things now" from August Osage County
Absolutely speechless. Lightning in a bottle moment.
AOC on possibly running for the Senate or President: They assume my ambition is a title or a seat. My ambition is way bigger than that. My ambition is to change this country. Presidents come and go, elected officials come and go, single payer healthcare is forever.
Honestly though, it would just be day after day of ActBlue breaking records. @democrats.org
Titan of industry. Media magnet. Marvelous manager of people. Cultural phenomenon. Free speech champion. Want to have all eyes on the Dems during the election cycle? Get him in the race. He’d make them all better at it.

COLBERT: How dumb do you think it is for people to say that I should run for president? OBAMA: Well, you know, the bar has changed. I think you would perform significantly better than some folks we've seen. COLBERT: Is that an endorsement? OBAMA: It was not
Getcha some musical theatre money

I think our ancestors would be proud to know that we figured out how to turn a sitcom season into a 5-10 hour long movie if/when we wanted to.
To the TODAY show producer that had Jenna Bush Hager talk to all four living presidents about some forgotten idea and then brought out Jane Fonda an hour later to talk about collective action… I see you.
Out of all of the words in this castle, I think “potentiality” is The Traitor
Also, it’s pretty clear that voters want new electeds across all leadership positions. So if you’re an elected and not one of the voices pushing this stuff out to make room, then you might find yourself being pushed out as well. @democrats.org Better to stay ahead of this. Especially now.
It’s hard not to look at the lack of a prepared response plan from the Swalwell campaign as anything but an indicator that they really thought they would get away with this. And that probably stems from an ego-sense that Dems are desperate to win that they won’t call out their own. Makes it worse.

The deep and very genuine friendship between Savannah Guthrie and Craig Melvin is a rare and maybe unmatched pairing in all of entertainment.
