Today's Mighty Oak


Alright, let’s see what we have today. First up, the trailer for the Zombieland trailer:

The National Cathedral (which is Episcopalian, by the way), has called out the President’s racism as a clarion call to white supremacists.

Here’s the cast for the Wheel of Time series. And here’s a primer about the the book series.

The Obi-Wan Disney+ series is officially happening! And here’s the trailer for The Mandalorian:

Speaking of Star Wars, how about a lightsaber bionic arm? Yes please!

The trailer for the new series, The Dark Crystal: The Age of Resistance (and the primer for that as well):

This German town will give you money to prove it doesn’t exist.

The trailer for the new season of AHS looks awesome. Slasher summer camp meets the 1980s (seems to be very Stranger Things influenced).

Holy crap, the cast for this show looks amazing and I can’t wait to watch the insanity:

Mayor Pete gives an eloquent and great breakdown about a form of homophobia often encountered.

The administration is once again pushing, this time to SCOTUS, to allow anti-gay workplace discrimination to be legal. Oh, and anti-trans discrimination too.

Brace yourselves, Texas passed a law I agree with! Sending unsolicited nudes is now considered a form of sexual harassment in their legal code!

I guess kind of a good story: a bigoted wedding venue changed their mind about barring a marriage when they couldn’t actually find proof in the bible that interracial marriage was a sin. They still block gay weddings, but hey, it’s nice to hear that they took the time to read and come to the right conclusion.

Guys, guns are totally gay:

Okay, that’s it for now, have a great one!



Two quick questions.  First, Metblogs had a massive database fail, and I’ not sure what’s going on.  But I still want to write about Pittsburgh.  I have two ideas, but wanted to see if anyone has a use for another unpaid Pittsburgh blogger.  I occasionally get invited to special events, apparently have some kind of following and like to write sarcastically about transportation, among other local things.

Two: is YouTube really, really, slow for anyone else?  I know they were hosting a lot of clips for Egypt, so I think that may have something to do with it, but it’s kind of unbearable right now.

Thanks, I should be back tomorrow or Friday with a bigger post, once I get some sleep!

Originally I was not going to keep this going after I find a new job, but as I’ve written it, I think I will keep it as a separate category, to keep my thoughts about equality all in one place.

So I wanted to break things up a little bit.  I love music, it keeps me going, and of course, who doesn’t love pirates?  So enjoy the musical interlude:

All my best,

The King of Spades
