He had a long life and an amazing career, but it still feels like Robert Duvall left us too soon. Way too soon.

Hace un par de años escribí una cosa corta sobre un locutorio donde podías ir a llamar por teléfono a tus seres queridos muertos. ¡Ahora la cosa ha dado la vuelta y son ellos quienes llaman! Muy feliz de haber sido seleccionado en el Laboratorio de Creación de Series TV 2026 de la SGAE...

Ian McKellen performs “The Strangers’ Case” speech from “Sir Thomas More” on Colbert.

Washington Post is shuttering its book section, part of the ongoing war against literacy & knowledge. We at Current Affairs want to pick up the slack by expanding book reviews. Writers: pitch us anytime! And if you subscribe/donate we'll use the funding to commission book coverage.

Seems to be accurate now. Don't forget that you have many alternatives!

Not much outrage on social media about this, even though your phone probably contains coltan. Is it because they’re Africans and live far away?

I was extremely naive in my twenties and early thirties, took people very much at their word when it came to values, and absolutely destroyed my mental health (and my career) thinking I could publicly demand accountability and survive it whole. (1/?)

My wife and I were on a beach in the Wellington area and found this at a car park, in the grass. It is approximately the size of a person's hand,made of bone, and intricately carved. I've masked the lower half,as only the legitimate owner will be able to fully describe it. Please share this...(1)

TREMENDO Ayuso sabía que las residencias no estaban medicalizadas y que no trasladar a los enfermos traería miles de muertes evitables, Carlos Mur lo avisó. Ayuso mintió diciendo que había 100 residencias medicalizadas y médicos, no había nada. ¿Por qué no hay consecuencias?

Cinco trabajos que he tenido: -Monitor de ajedrez (sin saber nada de ajedrez. Agradecí dejarlo antes de que me descubrieran) -Limpiamesas en resort costero para pobres en el UK -Profesor de inglés en academia de idiomas -Actor de animaciones infantiles -Guionista de programa de humor en ETB

La sanidad pública, pagada con nuestros impuestos, de todos y para todos es un tesoro que debemos defender. Es tan importante, tan necesaria, que la industria privada no puede competir con ella y hará lo que sea para destruirla. Para estas cosas siempre pueden contar con la derecha española.

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good. Stay free

This fills me with joy. You can't exaggerate how much the Minneapolis resistance against their fascist government means to people all over the world.

Do I know anyone with U.K. police knowledge? For a script, obviously... If there's a major incident that isn't a crime - for example, a building collapses and blocks a road - which team/unit of the police helps with the emergency services response? Is there a specific 'public disasters' team?

Pick up the nearest book. Turn to page 42, post the second sentence. "I that in heill was and gladness Am trublit now with great sickness and feblit with infirmitie:--" Jeez.

I had never realized until now that when Galactus first arrived The Beatles' Revolver was playing on the radio. In my mind they still seem like cultural products from different timelines...

Explica bien Matt Damon algo que pasa a veces en los procesos de desarrollo: y es que el empeño en mejorar el guión puede acabar cargándose lo que hizo que alguien se interesara por él. Buscar la perfección es absurdo. Nuestras historias son tan imperfectas como nosotros.

PLEASE READ: I was sent an e-mail from a suicidal young reader. I wrote them back to try to dissuade them but other than that I don't know what to do to try to ID/contact family ??? Searched for ideas online, tried to ID them thru their email, not helpful. Panicking/at a loss, anyone have ideas--?

Fellas, have you ever considered how awesome it is to be Fred Schneider? Just think about it. Wow. Dang. This is why there are so many covers of B-52s songs...yet not enough. People want a little taste of Fred, if just for a moment.

10 years already without Bowie. Feels like a hundred years already.

Posting again just to underline the fact that the X algorithm is VERY CLEARLY DESIGNED to feed far right material to new users… It is straight up a propaganda tool and decent people need to LEAVE it.

#OtD 8 Jan 1811 maybe biggest uprising of enslaved people in US history took place on Louisiana coast. 100s of enslaved people attacked their masters and marched towards New Orleans burning plantations & fighting local militia until more troops arrived shop.workingclasshistory.com/collections/...

There is a grave moral consequence to letting this go on. Shut down the government, have a general strike, grind the country to a halt, hit the streets. But not treating a demented administration lying about its thugs committing cold-blooded murder as an emergency? That is an emergency in itself.

Memory is tricky, huh? I was thinking of the ending of City Lights, how a good part of its power is that we see the Little Tramp cry for the first time in his career. But does he really cry? I looked up a gif, and his eyes shine, but I'm not sure he sheds tears. Maybe it's just Kuleshov again.
