Milli Vanilli *AND* Vanilla Ice?! Also, did they use AI to generate all of the artist images? So much to unpack here...

absolutely recommend "The Sheep Detectives" -- but only if you know what to expect; a truly delightful shaggy-sheep story with wonderful (human) voices including that of Bryan Cranston as a stalwart ram & Julia Louis-Dreyfus as the most clever sheep. a meta-mystery that most skillfully deconstructs the formulaic English village cozy even as it manages to surprise us nonetheless. surprisingly candid about matters of life & death; almost too stark for its convivial tone. might be OK for children of 10 or 11.... its tragic revelations come as a surprise in a film of such conviviality & magnanimity.

Explained to my wife that the Mets came back from a 4 run deficit to win it and she’s giving me the same smile she gives our son when he discovers a cool rock

Pittsburgh Zoo & Aquarium is set to trade gorillas with Boston’s Franklin Park Zoo. Frankie, Pittsburgh’s 7-year-old male western lowland gorilla, will head to Boston, and in exchange, Boston will send 33-year-old Little Joe the silverback @TribLIVE 🦍 triblive.com/local/regional/…

Every time a Mets player comes up to bat at Citi Field they play this tough guy montage of them brandishing a bat in front of a giant wall with their name in lights and it’s set to badass hip hop but then their stats come up and they’re hitting .146 with two million strikeouts
