The almost decade-long legal battle between Kesha and Dr. Luke ended Thursday after both parties said they reached a “resolution.” But why did they settle, and why now? Rolling Stone spoke to two legal experts who offered their thoughts on what this agreement means for both parties. In her statement, Kesha said that “only God knows what happened” on the night when she has claimed she was raped by the producer, adding, “As I always said, I cannot recount everything that happened.” Luke, for his part, maintained his full innocence: “I am absolutely certain that nothing happened.

That Legendary Television and Netflix’s animated series “Skull Island” comes from creator/writer/executive producer Brian Duffield makes perfect sense. The writer behind Underwater, Love and Monsters, and Spontaneous has already established an affinity for larger-than-life monsters, a sense of adventure, and an uncanny knack for tugging at the heartstrings in the process. All three of those elements capture the essence of the monstrously sized yet tender-hearted King Kong, and they’re at the core of “Skull Island,” a lighthearted standalone series that goes big on nonstop monster mayhem. “Skull Island” hits the ground running with an action-heavy sequence introducing wild teen Annie (Mae Whitman) as she evades her gun-toting…

Fortunately, it seems that the days of the “video game curse” are far behind us. Not only are recognizable franchises like Five Nights at Freddy’s receiving long-awaited adaptations, but…

Photography courtesy of Louis Vuitton Hint: It involves a lot of non-tops. By Natalie Michie Date June 21, 2023 Facebook Twitter I’m a simple gal.

We know that LGBTQ+ books are under fire across the country and they have been specifically targeted by right-wing conspiracy theorists in a very organized fashion now for several years. In addition, we have seen public education and teachers come under fire by these same conspiracists who believe that by having LGBTQ+ books in the mere presence of children will be enough to fundamentally change who they are. Imagine if that were the case: today’s kids would never need to work on math or on writing or on thinking because being merely present to educators would do the work for…
