If I were to guess, I would say that Hollywood, Ending will be the @johngreensbluesky.bsky.social book I will return to the most in the years to come. Thank you, John. Always and again.

Most of the brave ones are still looking around at others hoping for more support. Not Kristin, the people's champion. Staring directly at Jeff. Doesn't care if she stands alone if she stands correct. #survivor51

telling the millions of viewers of your television show that they’re annoying and dumb is a hell of a way to make your television show #survivor

I'm sorry, what? Shakespeare didn't write the play in Olde English. And Shakespeare didn't set the play in a time or place where the characters would've spoken Olde English. Eggers is free to make his choice, but how does this show "meticulous attention to detail"? It shows the opposite?
As befitting a filmmaker who is known for his meticulous attention to detail in capturing a time period, even when it comes to dialogue, sources say that this adaptation will feature actors speaking in Olde English.

A tragic romance, Shakespeare’s play told the ill-fated story of the titular young lovers who hail from two warring families, the Capulets and the Montagues, in the city of Verona, Italy.

Every day the social internet generates one interaction that justifies its (more or less unjustifiable) continued existence, and this is today's. It is just so good.

This dude is so vile that he's serving a president who's threatening to demolish the nation's official memorial to his own uncle. That's how power-hungry and obsessed with destroying our public health system RFK, Jr. is.

You know when something is consuming all your mental capacity and the only way to sort it out and clarify it for yourself is to write it down? Anyway, here's 8000 words on Love's Labour's Lost by #Shakespeare that no one asked for. brendanlinwood.wordpress.com/2026/09/17/a...

You can't blame Ed Sheeran for caving in to American stadium owners I suppose. I mean, take these guys in the 60s, they refused to play to racially-segregated audiences in stadiums in the southern states of the USA and who remembers them now?

The Beatles banned segregated audiences, contract shows

Worth noting, as Macklemore was banned by NFL owners in what will be dubbed "fighting antisemitism", that Kanye, who - sold merch with swastikas - said on Alex Jones that he idolizes Hitler - tweeted he was "going Defcon 3 on Jewish people" is currently on a multi-city tour of NFL stadiums

9/11/2001 I was a freshman in high school in Alabama, I wore a hijab. In gym class my teacher wheeled in a screen. Something horrible was happening. I watched, mouth agape as the second tower hit. We were silent. As that period reached an end, my name was announced on the loud speaker. 1/

Hilarious that Google is doing this only for US visitors to the site. It's like they are posting a "close friends only" story on Instagram. But in this case close friends means one pedophile and his enablers.

+1. Renaming things to remove references to the perpetrators of genocide against First Nations folks, vs attempting to remove an already indigenously-named lake. Rage baiting clowns.

No, he took a swing at the president, noting that the president would rather spend time with her on his plane than do his job. If I complain that my son is spending all his time at the beach instead of doing chores, I am not actually "taking a swing at the beach"

The death estimate is very uncertain but the lower bound is over 8 million and the upper bound is over 19 million. All while US spending has increased overall. Just a monstrous policy choice by monstrous people.
