Not sure if “ironic” is the word I’m looking for, but…
#Tennessee was, in 1925, home to the #ScopesMonkeyTrial🙈🙉🙊, in which a teacher was found guilty of teaching #Evolution in the classroom.
Tennessee is, in 2023, one of the few US states to allow people to own monkeys🐒 as pets without a permit. (This has led to people making videos of their pet monkeys in costumes.)
Tennessee GOP are, in 2023, trying to keep teachers and students from learning. #DontSayRacism #DontSayGay #StayIgnorant

I wish Verna was real. There’s a lot of Justice that needs metting out. And a lot of people who need to hear, “NeverMore.”

If you’re interested in #Abortion on TV, #ArcticCircle TV (Finland #Ivalo) is a must-see. Lina Kuustonen, Pihla Viitala , & Venla Ronkainen are amazing.
A lot of the dialogue is in English as the default common language between neighboring countries. Watch it in Finnish w/ subtitles on Topic TV.
If you’ve watched it, I’m curious as to what you think. #Heartbeat #AbortionDoping #DownSyndrome #GayRights #DrugAddiction #CrimeDrama #FeministTV #AbortionOnTV #NordicNoir #FinlandTV

Note: In the #DudleyMoore and the Musical #Dalek episode of #TheMuppetShow, #Gonzo does a bit wherein he attempts to defuse a bomb while reciting the works of #PercyByssheShelley.
Yes, THAT Shelley, friend of #LordByron (defender of the #Luddites) and husband of #MaryShelley (author of the novel #Frankenstein).Never let it be said that an advanced degree in literature is pointless.

Note: #DudleyMoore brought a musical #Dalek to the #TheMuppetShow in 1979 (S4E7).

Amidst the #SAGAFTRA & #WGA strikes, it’s a good time to remember that the #Luddites were protesting the use of technology to put human laborers out of work.

My 14yo had some questions about the lovely #JamesDarren ❤️ as #VicFontaine on #StarTrek #DS9 S6&7.
14yo: So those are real songs?
Me: What do you mean by “real”? He’s really singing them….
14yo: I mean were they made up for the show or…
Me: No. They existed before the show. They’re called “Standards”—part of “The Great American SongBook.”
14yo: They’re from a book?
Me: [See also: #Gidget #RatPack #LasVegasStrip]

#MoralPanic over fat kids—and claims of an “Epidemic” obscure rather than inform. The term #Obesogenic,” as used in the press and in public discourse, emphasizes fatness itself as the disease (to be cured through changes to the environment).
”We show an association between early life exposure to glyphosate and liver inflammation and metabolic disease in young adults,” said Eskenazi, who led the study.

There’s a special place in Hell reserved for clothing designers/companies that show very oversized clothes on the runway but eschew creating for and stocking actual plus sizes.

Biden rightly says that #LegislatingHate is #Sinful.
Biden uses his own family’s Catholicism to criticize #RonDeSantis & push back against the GOP’s #Transphobia & plans for an American #Evangelical #Theocracy.
“What’s going on in Florida is, as my mother would say, close to sinful. I mean, it’s just terrible what they’re doing,” Biden said in an interview broadcast late Monday with actor and former White House staffer Kal Penn, who is guest hosting “The Daily Show.”

WTF is the deal with designer brands like #FreePeople and #Rundholz and #Moyuru that size their clothing S-XL but sell lots of VERY #oversized pieces that might fit someone #PlusSized based on measurements (assuming they provide them)?
Is it just a stubborn refusal to be categorized as a purveyor of #Fatshion?
While I’m bitching, if you sell new or used clothing (#Poshers, I’m looking at you now) and don’t include the pieces’ measurements, why the hell not?
P.S. #OneSizeFitsSOME.

Worth a read. I've often wondered if Trump was ever more than functionally literate.

@futurebird I need to get this off my chest. When he was young, my husband looked quite a bit like #GeddyLee. Now that they’re both older, he still looks like Geddy. I didn’t know what #rushband looked like until recently and, when I saw pics, I was gobsmacked.
So. In conclusion. I married a cute nerd. -

People working on #androids should work on making newborns, first. They’re simpler, in behavioral terms. And there’s a market for them.
I was just watching a video of someone giving their #RebornBaby a diaper change. They’d pre-prepped a poopy diaper for him & wiped him with baby wipes. The baby doll was silicone (not vinyl), so he was appropriately floppy & soft, & beautifully hand painted, with hand-rooted hair. But he was so quiet & unmoving.
