There are 10 books all Western citizens should be forced to read before they are allowed access to short form vertical video that would save society forever

Actually take Gilead out and put in the Odyssey

If you enjoyed the ideas of East of Eden, I think the next book you should read is Gilead by Marilynne Robinson. The idea of timshel is alive and well there and I love the passage of Ames describing humanity as actors on a stage for God’s pleasure.

Be wary of those who believe in a neat little world. Cause it’s just fuckin crazy you know that it is. Thanks, Dave.

“She said she liked small parties, not small penises, you sick fuck.”
A modern-day police procedural take on ‘THE GREAT GATSBY’ is in the works at NBC. The series follows Jay Gatsby, a charming investigator with a gift for reading human behavior, and Nicole “Nicky” Carraway, a cop with dreams of becoming a writer. (Source: Deadline)

A man who played as Scrooge, Macbeth, and Ahab. Who recited sonnets during covid. Who also captivated audiences in Star Trek and X-men. But also didn’t take himself too seriously on American Dad. Thank you for showing us dignity, humility, and just being a beacon of goodness.
Patrick Stewart, who will be remembered most for his roles as Captain Jean-Luc Picard on “Star Trek: The Next Generation” and as Professor Charles Xavier in the “X-Men” films, has died at 86. variety.com/2026/tv/news/pat…

Ron Holland is perplexing players because so often it doesn’t seem like he is thinking about the game at all (derogatory) and at the same time he is thinking too much.

Reading East of Eden for the first time and did anyone else just imagine Jon Bernthal as Charles Trask while reading? I just can’t shake it any more.

I’m telling you right now, there is no shot Abdul wins. None. These people are EVERYWHERE.

Nothing better than a day off with the kids and watching My Neighbor Totoro together.

Okay Jalen Duren is actually moving DIFFERENT. Hmmmmm.

My crystal ball tells me that Hampton is the next “star” player that gets traded.

Let’s just face it. This Lions team is not very good.

Cade, just know you cannot have a single bad game this season. You just gave the haters a full clip of ammo.
Did you know that Cade Cunningham could juggle?? 🤹‍♂️ The @DetroitPistons All-NBA guard starts regular-season play vs. JT and the Celtics on Oct. 20 at 3:00pm/et on NBC and Peacock!

Look, you can play the other backs if you’re winning, but now you look like you’re just trying to be the smartest guy in the room AND you’re 0-4. And before anyone asks I’m at 7% Hampton, so I really don’t have any dog in this race.
Chargers OC Mike McDaniel on Hampton's carries: "It wasn't a situation where we were punishing...we see our RB room as a strength of the team" He says Hampton is the starter but that Vidal did really good "during the week" of practice.
