@jimbosaurus I'm still waiting for the Dune / Tremors crossover episode where it turns out they're long lost twins who have the same parents.

Yoda Botches Five Classic Jokes

1. In love two melons are. Yet run off and marry they do not. Why? Because elope, they cannot. - - -2. On a seafood diet, I am. Food I see; eat it ...

This is true, but the more important point is that even if it *wasn't* okay for her to hear a case involving the company that published her book, that's just another point in favor of forcing SCOTUS to accept a binding, enforceable ethics policy.

“It's pretty funny that the white wing oppo teams have been scouring the liberal justices' records looking for any opportunity to engage in what aboutism, and all they've come up with is a Sotomayor book deal that the same as what Neil Gorsuch got. It's the mayonnaise of spices.”

The other shoe keeps dropping.

A key point: Thomas *did* report a $5000 gift from someone else to pay tuition for this boy. But not a word ever about the ~$150k from Crow. Hard to see how that’s not a willful omission. https://twitter.com/justinelliott/status/1654063623147225089

Man, I know everybody on my feed is fully on-board with "Fuck Kathy Hochul," but for real: Fuck Kathy Hochul, what a soulless fucking ghoul. She's every bit as bad as Cuomo, and it makes me sick that people girlboss-gaslit her into not getting taken down with him.

Just an FYI to actors, if you’re on set rewriting or improvising dialogue on a WGA show or movie because the writers are on strike, that counts as scabbing and you are hurting the fight against streamers for everyone ✌️
This proves Denis has actually read all of the Dune books.

although called “Count” Dracula, no such honorific was used in any of the centuries Dracula was operating in Transylvania. As he himself says, he is “Boyar”, one of the aristocrats of the region. He also frequently signs his letters as “-D.”

THIS MFER’S NAME IS BOYAR D.

Note to any non-WGA folks out there: If the inarguable moral and ethical reasons for not scabbing don't convince you, please be swayed by the fact that, once this strike ends, scabs WILL be blackballed from the union, and therefore from the industry. Just don't do it.

“PSA: The WGA strike may mean that novelists & authors get approached for screenwriting. While this may seem like a perfect opportunity, please note that the WGA does strongly enforces its right to prevent non-members who have engaged in scabbing from ever becoming members.”
