www.youtube.com/watch?v=Js9K... This trailer does not do justice: this show is far less silly than we'd be led to believe. I'm halfway through S01, and every moment is so compelling and heartbreaking. Rosalie Craig & Joanna Scanlan are breathtaking. Every character is so well written. Watch. This.

It is what you think it is… they mean to starve the poor folks.

I want more people to care that SNAP benefits are being cut off on November 1. 40% of SNAP beneficiaries are children. This is callous and vile.

If the skin were parchment, and the blows you gave were ink, Your own handwriting would tell you what I think.

“Golden More-Tough-Than-Mean” 062220 The concept is that it’s noir, only it crowbars in a history lesson, so in the trope where the detective delivers exposition at gunpoint, he annoyingly spouts some sacred geometry (rectangular cuboid = coffin) right before plugging the crook. #latentoats

Virginia Faulkner on most "arty" writing about Nebraska: "Mother grunting in labor in the one-room shack, Paw either drunk or just a-settin' staring at nothing, and the Sensitive One dangling at rope's end from a rafter in the barn." (Letter to literary agent Carl Brandt, May 15, 1956)

Drop an old person you're going to turn into in the future. The bitter, cynical, and impossible-to-live-with Max Von Sydow from Hannah and Her Sisters.

When Remco released their Universal Monsters action figures, they already felt like a throwback. Today on the Retroist, I take a look at the release history of this too short-lived toy line that brought everyone's favorite monsters to the 3.75 inch scale. www.retroist.com/p/remco-univ...

"Refutation Iteration," dated, appropriately, April 1st, 2019. A favorite; it came together effortlessly and just works. The drawing style is consistent and conveys a sense of character without being cluttered. When your entire life is a constant reminder that you're doing it wrong. #latentoats

All the headlines for this seem to lead with "Fortnite, Snapchat, Roblox" brought down, with the afterthought "and also some banks" or "also most of the Internet". Maybe I'm old, but it feels like we're listing the industries affected using weird prioritization.

"At the time there was a lot of racism happening. So we just thought, 'Well, we went to school with black and white guys. Instead of fighting and calling people names, let's work together.' So we combined black music with punk.We just mixed the two cultures." Neville Staple #thespecials #ska #2tone

Reminder that Washington D.C. (over 700,000 peeps) pay taxes but STILL have no corresponding vote in Congress. Also, peeps in Puerto Rico, Guam, U.S. Virgin Islands, Northern Mariana Islands, & American Samoa, pay some U.S. taxes and similarly have no representation. #notaxationwithoutrepresentation

A solid 90 minutes. I was just off to the right, up against the stage, just me and my 46yo (at the time) straining bladder. Probably the best show I've ever been to. Montreal has several venues that are the perfect size for intimate performances with big acts. ♥️ #Garbage youtu.be/-fHrEjpJGJ4?...

Whoever came up with the idea of mocking this gratuitously cruel regime with cute, nonthreatening plastic frogs really hit a gold mine. The clever imagery has made it all the way across the Atlantic.
