I wonder if Lorena Bobbit is still around and willing to make some PSAs on the topic.

Twelfth Night is my favorite of his works, and there’s an adaptation from the early noughts starring Parminder Nagra and Chiwetel Ejiofor that I absolutely adore.

So, do we now get a story from Tybalt’s past where he punches Bishop Wilberforce in the throat to refute the accusation of undertones?

In the 80s and 90s (at least) lots of high school/college tests (including standardized college admissions tests, the LSAT, & a portion of some states’ bar exams) used computer-scored scantron answer sheets, which involves filling bubble for the correct answer with a number 2 pencil.

It may be too recent, but I thought that No/One, with its accompanying faux true crime podcast about the investigation into the murders was an interesting expansion of comics storytelling.

In retrospect, Charles Dickens being revealed as a Dickensian villain should feel much less surprising.

If you’re interested in the history of American pop culture, I enthusiastically recommend the podcast “Who Killed the Video Star?”, a history of MTV up to the present day. Not as in-depth as Tannenbaum’s fantastic oral history, but particularly good for the years after his book.

This was so clumsily done, I bet that when law enforcement gets the warrants to search the defendants’ phones, we’re going to find out they broke the Stringer Bell Rule about the bribes, too.

I saw that film for the first time in my mid-twenties. It was plenty hallucinatory at that age, too.
