HOW old is the traitor ??? Disgusting behaviour, at any time, but is THIS how to represent the Invictus Games and attract more money - especially when he is facing possible bankruptcy ???? #FOHarry

Churches are now "catching fire" across the United States.

Former Grandview United Presbyterian Church, Pittsburgh, which has stood since 1857.

Now destroyed.

The guy who can’t even build 1 foot of train tracks with $120 Bn and 7 years in office is trying to take shots at the guy who is landing rocket ships backwards and catching them in midair with chopsticks?
Ok, bro.

We grew up watching hand drawn Disney and now it's gone. We don't talk about this enough.

Every frame of this video was painted by hand, by a human being. Every single one...

To put that into perspective: to make Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, Disney employed around 750 artists for three years, and they produced nearly two million individual paintings. More than 700 of the backgrounds were painted in watercolour. Over 150 people worked in a single department whose only job was to ink and paint the transparent sheets, called cels, that the characters were drawn on.

It all ended within our lifetime.

According to the Smithsonian, The Little Mermaid, released in 1989, was the last Disney feature made with the hand-painted cel method. The very next film, one year later, went digital.

And something was lost in that transition. In every frame of the old films, a human hand physically touched the surface. A person sat at a desk, held a brush, and made a decision. Two million small decisions, made by hundreds of people, most of whose names we will never know.

But the deepest difference is that the old animators knew they were making a cartoon. They did not try to copy the world. They stretched it, exaggerated it, bent it out of shape, because they understood something we seem to have forgotten: a drawing that imitates life exactly feels dead.

Walt Disney even had a name for this: he called it the plausible impossible.

Today, everything chases realism. And somehow, the more real it looks, the less alive it feels...

I started my newsletter because the past is full of beauty, and fewer and fewer people take the time to show it to us anymore. Every week I try to. If that is something you'd like to be part of, you can join through the link in my bio, and if you'd like to support my work, a paid subscription is what makes it possible.

Thanks for reading.

Corey Comperatore was a husband, a dad, and a man of faith. He was the former Fire Chief of the Buffalo Township Volunteer Fire Company.

On July 13, 2024, he died shielding his wife and daughters from bullets at a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania.

He should have gone home. Instead, Secret Service failures cost him his life.

We pressed Secret Service Director Kim Cheatle on those failures in a hearing on the Oversight Committee. She resigned the next day.

Corey gave his life for the people he loved. His family deserves justice.

We're not done asking questions.

Mike Tindall has been the uncle Prince George has needed these last five years.

I'm grateful George has had Mike, Peter Philips and James Middleton's support during Princess Catherine’s cancer treatment and harassment.

The young Prince is surrounded by love and strong positive male role models.

He has all the uncles he needs 🥺💙
