Okay, so when ICE rolled through Charlotte, a central point of resistance was Manolo's bakery. This was where people came to organize, protest, and eat churros. Manolo Betancur, the owner, has long been an outspoken advocate for the immigrant community in East Charlotte.

Don't use this service, didn't you learn _anything_ from Twitter?
I think my problem with Camp Miasma is that my expectations were _so high_ after I Saw the TV Glow that nothing was ever going to meet them. It just felt very trivial in comparison. Miasma has its merits, but I feel like TV Glow probably saved someone's life, you know? That's a hard act to follow.
I'm cooked, how many failed escape attempts through the Underworld would Zagreus have in one year?
You're offered $250,000,000 but to claim it you must enter the last video game you've played and stay there for a full year. How are y'all faring in this deal?
Last call on this; Wednesday is probably your last day to see Cookie Queens in a real theater, if it's still playing near you! ticketingcookiequeens.com

I don't know anything about this game, but this is an immediate purchase for me, based solely on the strength Sam's previous game, Immortality.

The Herman Miller Aeron I've been sitting in for 25 years just cracked, and I think this is going to be the thing that sends me into a deep, deep depression.
I was on the Girl Dad Nation podcast to talk about raising a girl scout, Cookie Queens, and, uh, labor unions. It was fun! You can see and/or hear me rant for an hour: www.girldadnation.org/more-than-co...

The Girl Scouts in Meghan Markle’s New Doc Have a Message for Politicians
The latest project from Meghan and Prince Harry’s Archewell Productions follows Girl Scouts through a “cutthroat” cookie-selling season with broader implications about diverse leadership.

Alysa Nahmias wasn’t looking for the cookie-selling stars. She was looking for girls with stories to tell — and found one in Olive Gordon.
Charlotte Girl Scout gives ‘Cookie Queens’ film a surprisingly grown-up heart

This is a breathtaking movie. It is family-friendly and inspiring, but don’t think for a moment that it shies away from the complication and darkness of its story. For anyone who was or knows a little girl. youtu.be/nnSQS43Eil8?...

Week three of landing in Charlotte, walking into my house, dumping all the clothes in my backpack into the washing machine, and then leaving a few hours later for another flight. Promoting a movie is fun, but it's exhausting. It's in theaters this week, though! cookiequeensfilm.com
Amir and I just finished our RubyConf workshop...I think it went well! I was told afterwards that Matz was sitting at one of the tables, so I hope I didn't say anything embarrassing in front of the creator of Ruby. :O

Never been so personally invested in a random congressional primary in New York before.
I saw The Death of Robin Hood yesterday, and I just want to say it wasn't surprisingly to see Robin Hood and Little John turned into villains, especially when one of the executive producers is listed as "The Sheriff of Nottingham."
I understand _why_ this works this way, but is there an option to readd the "I understand the SSL cert is fucked up in some dumb little way, but it's highly unlikely this site is actually compromised to the point where I shouldn't even view it, load it anyway" button?
John Oliver just did an episode about the destruction of New College, and I have to say, he made it look like goofy conservatives doing goofy conservative things and not an absolute fascist nightmare. If you ever get a chance to see First They Came For My College, you should, I promise you.
On the way home from SXSW! Had a ton of fun in Austin, and at the Cookie Queens screenings. Got to see First They Came For My College, and it broke my heart in half. Absolutely required viewing for understanding how fascism devours, and who it digests.

My only hot take for the Tony awards is that André De Shields deserves way better than being in fucking Cats.
