so now that many podcasts are being taped and aired on tv streamers are they going to be WGA-covered talk shows? Union HMU? Union lighting/grips/sound/ etc? Because those are talk shows

Not only that, but I think 1990 was the year Virginia had a legit shot at the title

Season 4 of the Beavis and Butthead reboot premieres tonight on Comedy Central! I think it's our best season, one that gives new meaning to the phrase "intellectual property."

is there a forum where I can ask Wikimedia folks why on Wikiquote they attribute quotes from movies to the fictional character, and not to the writer of the line?
The hero is the world-man, in whose heart One passion stands for all, the most indulged.
• Philip James Bailey, Festus (1839), "Proem.", line 114-115.

A hero can be anyone. Even a man doing something as simple and reassuring as putting a coat around a young boy's shoulders to let him know the world hadn't ended.
• Batman, The Dark Knight Rises (2012)

They died to save their country and they only saved the world.
• Hilaire Belloc, The English Graves

This phrase has just been lying around in the Book of Common Prayer for centuries and yet not one bookstore has decided to use it for a slogan

Remember Lumbass the Dumbass from last year? 😂 Lew Morton has revealed a few things to look forward to this season, including #BeavisandButtHead singing children’s songs in the same spirit as their previous segment.

I think the television series THE AGE OF UNCERTAINTY with John Kenneth Galbraith would be better known today if it had received its true and secret title: "JKG Talks Smack About Everyone and Everything"

Sometimes my wife and I like to send each other text messages as though they’re democratic fundraising messages, and I believe she has produced the jewel of the form.
, it's
and I
have some personal news to share with you.
Being a mom is one of the greatest joys of my life, and I feel deeply that we should have salad tonight
This year has been challenging in many ways, and I have immense gratitude for the kindness and support of family, community, and people like you who have continued to stand by me through everything. It means the world, and I wanted you to be among the first to know that squash is in the oven and kale is in the fridge.As many of you are aware, ve been navigating one of the most challenging periods of my day while waiting for dinner.
Facing baseless federal hunger brought on by not eating since lunch, fighting for the working kids of this country, and now caring for a mean toddler and helping him grow up in a world that isn't always easy. But it has also reminded me exactly why I do this work and who I do it for.
I will never stop working to eat dinner. I will never stop fighting for what is right, even when there is also some feta in the fridge. And I will never stop being so very thankful that you are by my side in this important work and that there is tahini in the pantry for dressing
With love and gratitude,
stop to end

I think maybe the Paul VI and early JPII bishops were more about the “seamless garment”; later JPII and Benedict bishops were more right wing

We just learned that season 4 of the Beavis and Butthead reboot premieres on Comedy Central (which still exists) on Oct. 14th (scheduled to exist). I think it's our best season. Sam and I wrote one where B&B get lost in the woods and start their own civilization. But there's even dumber ones too!

Among the many things 9/11 can be is a reminder that Trump's monstrosities should not make us forget the malice, dishonesty, incompetence, and destructiveness of the Bush Administration, which gave us two evil wars and ICE along with a crackdown on civil liberties.

This is off-topic, but are you familiar with Julia Weist? A lot of her work involves public records. I just saw her play here in Hollywood, about how she got interrogated by the state of NY when she reapplied for the private investigator's license she uses in her work.

I didn’t hear the Pirates complaining when the Dodgers investing to build a dynasty created the biggest revenue stream the sport has ever seen, trickling the revenue down to make Pittsburgh one of the most profitable teams in the league while losing 90+ games every year 🤷‍♂️
