This video makes me get emotional. Not just because “John John” is a precocious little boy learning to count to 15 with Harry the monster. And not just because so many years later John Williams came back to continue counting with Harry the monster.

There's always a backlash against progress for marginalized communities unless it's too small to matter So no MeToo didn't go too far BLM didn't go too far The Civil Rights Act of 1964 did not go too far The Voting Rights Act did not go too far The backlash is against progress, not excess

resident evil: the movie: the game #re
Fan-comic of the Resident Evil live action movie:
“He got real lucky on his route, huh”

First panel Bryan is struggling to hold a lot of the puzzle items from the games. He reads the sheet of paper with the Chess Piece Plug Puzzle clue: “‘the rook and knight are on the same wall and the bishop and queen aren’t next to each other. The queen and rook are opposite each other too…’ so this doesn’t need the gems? Why do I have gems???”

Second panel, Bryan is thinking as hard as he can over Chess Piece Plug Puzzle placements

Third panel, Bryan’s deflated: “can’t this just be like everything else and have a huge stupid padlock?”

So I've got a ⚪🔵⚫ deck built around Tevit, Seller of Secrets - it's sphinx kindred but also voting-themed. I feel like the Ur-Sphinx belongs in the deck but I'm torn between not wanting to usurp Tevit as commander but also the silliness of an eminence card being in the 99.

Andy Beshear has an entire chapter in his new book about backing the LGBTQ community and it's worth a read. He talks about how the anti-trans ads were tested in KY during his election and how vetoing anti-trans legislation didn't hurt his reelection campaign.
However the anti-trans ads had less to do with Kentucky and more to do with the fact that we were in an election. Terry Schilling, the head of the APP, decided to test the ads in our election to determine whether or not the issue could win votes for the Republican Party. Earlier in the summer of 2019, Scholling had partnered with a behavioral science firm to try to find a wedge issue that resonated with suburban voters. That's right. The anti-trans ads did not come out of some firmly held conviction but was a purely political stance. Their research landed on trans athletes, specifically trans women, competing in women's sports. They tested their theory in the 2019 Kentucky gubernatorial general election. Although I won, APP considered their test successful, because their research showed the ads delivered thirteen thousand votes for Trump Lite, which made the race tighter than anticipated.You might hask how, in this political climate, I was reelected after vetoing the anti-trans bill. Because people respect authentic faith. The day I vetoed it, I explained my why. I said I believe all children are children of God and that I don't want people picking on these kids. I then countered their anti-trans ads with commercials talking about good jobs, healthcare, roads and bridges, public education, and public safety. The result? The biggest win of my career. So don't tell me the Democratic Party should stop fighting for the rights of all people. Just explain your authentic why, and then get back to focusing on issues that touch all our lives on a daily basis.

They may eventually replace librarians with AI, but an AI is just never going to be able to make sense of someone's verbal word jumble and teach them how to do what they need to do. (The student didn't even know the words for what she wanted to do. AI is never going to have intuition.)

A lot of people don't seem to understand that whether a story is good or bad has no relevance to whether you like it or not. We would like to think we like well-written, original, thought-provoking stories that are hailed as classics & we don't like literary junk food, but the reverse is often true.

When Black people tell one another “Be safe” or “Stay safe” at the end of a phone call, it can feel like casting a small spell of protection. The words cannot control what waits outside, but they carry our hope into the world with the person on the other end of the line.
