What scene makes you emotional no matter how many times you see it? (The tears are Pavlovian at this point.)

Someone could write an awesome book on the evolution of American politics over the past two decades centered around the divergence of Jimmy Kimmel and Adam Carolla
A new if not surprising name on the RNC midterm speaking schedule: "Adam Carolla, Host of the Adam Carolla Show"

Also: if you love comics and have not yet read DeMatteis & Maguire’s Justice League International run, please go read it immediately. It’s pure joy in comics form. Yes, even if you think you hate the Justice League. Trust me.
Wishing a very happy birthday to the one, the only, the truly inimitable @kevinmaguire.bsky.social!

They're not messing around with Inde's Oscar campaign.
First four hosts for SNL Season 52:

Jalen Brunson, Dakota Johnson, Shane Gillis and Inde Navarrette.

Lorne Michaels is still furious that he was forced to fire Gillis, and is going to keep bringing him back to host until we all apologize.

I somehow had never seen the first Practical Magic until two weeks ago. (It was not great.) The sequel's a bit better, mostly thanks to the kids.
'Practical Magic 2' brings back the magic and the mess – Review
Sandra Bullock and Nicole Kidman are bewitching in "Practical Magic 2," which improves upon the 1998 cult movie yet has its own issues.

This thing makes my head explode.
What's most interesting about this list isn't who is on it, but rather, who is not. As someone who is doing this day in and day out, of course I know two dozen names that could easily replace several here, but there are discussions to be had about some...

Huge pop for this.
Noah Jupe was cast in Secret Wars and most of fandom seems to think he's going to be Franklin Richards, but let me just put this out there...he looks EXACTLY like The Beyonder.

Some sad news: Will Murray, who along with Steve Ditko co-created Squirrel Girl, has passed away. I corresponded with him but never had the chance to meet him in person. He was always open and generous with me, the new guy writing Doreen. 🌰🐿️

There's a movie coming on Shudder in October called THE CYCLE. I don't usually pump for horror movies (unless they are mine, haha), but this is special. Put it on your calendar.
