Middle school kids learn about theatre...probably more than they bargained for. (Please note that watching a movie to fulfill the Weekly Movie Challenge is not an endorsement of that movie.)

TIL that Sia is older than I had imagined, only a few years younger than me. All the more respect to her.

Finally! Qualifies here as a seemingly inescapable situation. And an incredible movie. I only regret that it took me 13 years to get around to watching it.

Name a non-LOTR character who could resist the One Ring "And for what? For a little bit of power? There's more to life than a little power, you know. Don'tcha know that? And here ya are, and it's a beautiful day. Well. I just don't understand it."
Frances McDormand as Sheriff Marge Gunderson in Fargo (1996).

It corrupts everyone *who uses it*, eventually. But there are a few who can resist it by choosing not to use it. Gandalf refuses it. Galadriel refuses it. The question is not which non-LOTR character could use the Ring and not be corrupted (no one), but who would refuse to use it.

not for nothing but of all the Confirmation classes I taught in the early aughts, one of the biggest hits was a session on Revelations it was basically "no we don't believe in the Rapture" / "the Left Behind books are trash" / "if a Catholic starts talking End Times shit to you, run"

Amazing
In the week after the June 24 primary election for mayor, I was determined to meet with voters in conservative neighborhoods where
Assemblyman Zohran Mamdani (D-Astoria), a democratic socialist, had performed surprisingly well. In a Howard Beach precinct where Mamdani won, I met a couple who, despite being conservative, voted for Mamdani because they bizarrely thought he had run "to the right" of former Gov. Andrew Cuomo and also believed he was Italian-American, as his name ended in an
"'" and he was from Astoria.
When I dug further into why they thought he was running "to the right" of Cuomo, they noted that it was because he discussed "prices" and
"cost of living," as Donald Trump had in 2024.
They both voted for Trump. They had a hard time believing Mamdani was a socialist because they believed socialists "support making everything more expensive. 1"

This is your standard reminder that Nixon's approval rating was 24% just prior to his resignation (and likely impeachment and removal, had he not resigned). Still a long way to go.
