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!



As I posted before, I’m currently reading Infinite Jest, and in addition to that, I’m still working through The Wheel of Time (although I’m missing the book I’m on at the moment…), as well as Speaker for the Dead and Harry Potter 6 (to get ready for the movie).  However, this spectacular book arrived yesterday and has been tempting me ever since to drop everything else that I’m reading:

That’s right, the 10th anniversary of The Cluetrain Manifesto.  Cluetrain is, in my mind, the most important book about the Internet.  And that sentence itself, has so much to unpack, it makes me shiver sometimes.  Anyway, I’m trying to get through some other things first, but I already was flipping through the first part and was drawn to it.  Let’s see how this take shape, I’ll keep you posted!
