Does Robert Downey Jr. know his new Marvel role’s greatest weakness is a woman named Doreen who talks to squirrels?

Benji, Zax, and the Alien Prince (1983). Loooved this show as a kid. Looking back, it's an unbelievable meld of the Benji franchise and 1970s Doctor Who production values. My favorite parts: Zax's lasers, the aliens' life-support bracelets, and Zord (the evil Zax).

Feeling overwhelmed with all of this. LISTEN. Another Louisiana resident (Marshawn is the only name we have) testifies against the state’s racial gerrymander, speaking truth to power up and down the hearing room and predicts how this story will end.
Speak your truth, fight and believe.

Black people are giving it these Confederates raw and uncut. This is how it’s gonna be now. You wonder what we’re thinking? It’s this.

Louisiana is 33% Black and has six congressional districts.

Yet in the past 149 years, they've just had 4 Black congressmen. All of whom are still alive.

And that's too many for Louisiana's white Republican leaders.

"Before the second recess, all four of Louisiana’s Black congressmen, past and present, since the Reconstruction era spoke to the committee..."

BREAKING: Disney+ is to replace the two-season run of Andor with a recut version that runs for only five minutes, and is just Mon Mothma apologising profusely to Darth Vader for any inconvenience, and letting him have whatever he wants.
