Amy Poehler’s Good Hang podcast has become a favorite around here, and it turns out she had a very solid reason for starting one. Show me the flaw in her logic. You can’t! - (The Daily Dot)

Matt Rogers technically apologized for urging people not to support Jasmine Crockett, but it was kinda one of those “sorry, but…” apologies. - (Variety)

The Golden Globes are still a thing, I guess. I did not remember that until I started putting this together today. - (AP News)

Speaking of, Wunmi Mosaku is positively radiant at the Golden Globes. - (JJ)

The White Lotus Season 4 will film in France this year at a palace-turned-hotel. - (Celebitchy)

“Mar-a-Lago face” hits its expiration date. It’s past due, if you ask me, like rotten garbage. - (Salon)

I’m pretty sure I wouldn’t have recognized this as Charisma Carpenter even if I looked at it for 20 minutes. Despite the drabness (is that a word? Maybe!) of her outfit, she looks fantastic, and I always enjoy seeing her. - (GFY)

As long as he doesn’t put Johnny Depp in it, sure, why not? Tim Burton and KPop Demon Hunters writers team for Attack of the Fifty Foot Woman. - (THR)

This has been around for a minute, and I may have even linked it before (I literally can’t remember what I linked last week, so…) but maybe some folks haven’t seen it, or someone has seen it but forgot about it, ANYway, it felt like something a lot of us could use right about now: A pep talk hotline created by elementary school kids. - (SM)

As far as I know, the loose monkeys are still loose somewhere in the St. Louis area, and the authorities are still clueless. - (The Independent)

YES YES YES YES YES welcome ‘em back welcome ‘em in we’ve all been dummies about something

RIP Bob Weir. - (PEOPLE)

ASKReviews started off the year with a book that challenged her, picking up Perfect Victims and the Politics of Appeal by Mohammed El-Kurd. “He repeatedly hammers home the fact that Palestinians should not have to be ‘perfect’ to be seen as human, and that so many of the issues that people raise to justify this genocide (not that genocide could ever be justified) do not and should not matter.” Has a book forced you to confront your biases?

This dogbearbunnyodaseal is amazing!

This is Zero. She is something of a shapeshifter. Not voluntarily, but still very impressive. 14/10 (IG: zerothesupercollie)
