Seeing all the discourse on Mike Flanagan's new Carrie series just reminds me of one important fact for me in entertainment enjoyment. Don't worry about what others think of a piece of entertainment before watching it. You will either like it or not, for varying reasons. Fuck what others think.

Protecting free speech is essential to protecting our democracy, and our democracy keeps Jews — and all of us — safe. Deporting beloved community leaders does not. Our Jewish community stands with Salah Sarsour and all our immigrant neighbors targeted by this administration's cruelty.

I give the NYT a lot of grief (well-deserved), but this is exactly how Dennis Hastert should be remembered 👇🏻

New York Times headline: Dennis Hastert, powerful politician disgraced by child abuse, dies.

Sub headline the longest serving Republican speaker of the house admitted in 2016 to abusing teenage boys decades earlier. He was 84.

Tennessee plans to execute a woman tomorrow. She was 18 when she committed the crime. She's now 50. Like most on death row, she's also a victim. And like most on death row, she's a far different person now than she was then. No one humanizes the condemned better than @lilianasegura.bsky.social.

From the Black Women's Player Collective yesterday. #NCCourage #GothamFC #NWSL

$During Saturday's September 19th Gotham FC vs. NC Courage match, commentary following an incident where Jordynn Dudley's hair was pulled in the 53rd minute crossed a line into unfair critique. Hair pulling is an objective foul, regardless of intent. Yet instead of addressing the infrac, commentators criticized Jordynn's hair length, framing the foul as a "consequence " of her style and a "risk" of to opposition players. A player's hairstyle should not be used to shift responsibility for a foul onto the player who was fouled. Players should be able to wear their hair in a way that reflects who they are without it becoming justification for unfair criticism when an opponent commits an infraction. Congrats on the brace and clinching, Jordynn. Good luck in the playoffs.$

The Macklemore thing is more proof that pro-Israel activists have just lost the ability to persuade. All it can do is browbeat anyone opposed to them. That doesn't work when you're -25 in public opinion.
