Donald Trump Reportedly Tested Positive for COVID-19 a Week Earlier Than Announced & Just Didn’t Tell Anyone

Donald Trump shrugs during the first presidential debate.

Trump reportedly tested positive for COVID-19 a week before it was announced, before he and Joe Biden had an in-person debate and before he met with a group of military Gold Star families.

I just would like to see Bruce Banner talking to kids about science and having Tony trying to get him to hulk-out the entire time for the thrill of it.

Midge Is Ready To Be a Headliner in The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel Season 4

the two sides of the maisel family tree

The critical award darling The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel is returning for its 4th season in February of 2022 and it is promising to be yet another season where Midge doesn't learn anything or take accountability for her actions. Sounds like an Amy Sherman-Palladino production.

Disney’s Encanto and Intergenerational Trauma

Abuela and Mirabel in Disney's Encanto.

A lot of us, especially those from marginalized communities and backgrounds, carry a lot of weight that we just can’t unload. It’s a weight that has been slightly lightened over generations but is still heavy by the time it gets to you. That weight and the fear and guilt associated with it is the heart of Disney's latest animated feature, Encanto.
