Normally a federal judge ruling that โ€œhot, sexy, dangerous boysโ€”central to virtually all young adult romance novelsโ€”cannot be copyrightedโ€ would be the best part of the case. Not this case.
You're doing a disservice not telling people that this is ongoing litigation over supposed idea theft in the vampire romantacy novel space. Makes it funnier tbh.

At this point itโ€™s more revisionist to suggest that sometimes people can be cruel simply because they have the opportunity.
The first trailer for โ€˜STEPSโ€™ has been released. The film follows Cinderellaโ€™s evil stepsisters who are actually depicted as kind & misunderstood. Releasing November 20 on Netflix.

You can tell what share of a restaurant's orders come from delivery apps, because if it's more than 50% you don't have as much of a disincentive to naming your food items the Stuff Me Mozzarella Sticks or the Fill My Hole Milkshake
End these millennial restaurants immediately

This story has it all. IP theft. Involution discourse. The International Blueberry Organization denouncing "illegal hectares." A woman admitting to eating a pound of a blueberries a day. A protest flotilla of enraged Italian tomato farmers. All news stories should be like this.

If you give Claude Opus enough photos of a building, it can take a crack at illustrating its floor plan. Hereโ€™s The Gobbler Motel and Supper Club. @Lileks

GTA Vice City (2002) was set in 1986 with songs like Billie Jean and Cutting Crewโ€™s (I Just Died) In Your Arms on the radio to make an equivalent retro game today in 2026โ€“ itโ€™d be set in 2010 with songs like Katy Perryโ€™s California Gurls, Ke$haโ€™s Tik Tok and Gagaโ€™s Bad Romance

The dream is to create a sitcom with a pun title very dependent on the pilot gimmick, only to abandon the gimmick & have it awkwardly hang around as the show evolves. Something like โ€œQuacking Upโ€ & we write the pet duck out of the show after episode 4 because it canโ€™t follow cues

Argentina advance after a rare successful encounter with a small Atlantic island.
From one small Atlantic island to another: good luck Cape Verde. Purely island solidarity, obviously. ๐Ÿ‡ซ๐Ÿ‡ฐ๐Ÿ‡จ๐Ÿ‡ป
