Movies, Emma Thompson, Late Night, Mindy Kaling, movie review By Vivian Kane on Fri,3:24 For a movie that tackles such big ideas, Late Night ends up feeling pretty lightweight.

AMP Featured, Movies, Jean Grey, Simon Kinberg, X-Men By Princess Weekes on Fri,11:52 Dark Phoenix doesn't understand that this is supposed to be Jean's movie, not Jean dealing with the side effects of Charles Xavier being a jerk. AMP Featured, News, LGBTQIA, meghan mccain By Vivian Kane on Fri,11:24 While we as a society have a bad habit of holding women accountable for men's bad behavior, sometimes there's a fine line between blaming women and recognizing complicity to actual abuse.

News, Alan Turing, obituary, Pride Month By Kaila Hale-Stern on Thu,6:14 The New York Times is on a mission to provide obituaries to "remarkable people" whose deaths went unreported by the newspaper in their time.
