"The omnipresent specter ... the hyper-awareness ..."

Emily C. Hughes (Defector, 06/25/2026), "Diabolical Motherhood": "On June 25, 1976, three and a half years after Roe v. Wade made abortion legal in the U.S., The Omen hit theaters ... In 2022, a few short months after the Dobbs decision, as stories were starting to filter out in the press about people dying and suffering after being denied abortions, production began on The First Omen. Arkasha Stevenson's prequel, released in 2024, is shockingly good." See also: Eleanor Johnson's brief video based on her interpretation of The Omen in Scream With Me: Horror Films and the Rise of American Feminism, 1968-1980. Trailers for The Omen (1976) and The First Omen (2024) may be unsettling. Also out this week, Monstrum's latest issue: "The Omen @ 50" with relevant essays on both films. Emily C. Hughes previously.

Onlinesupermarkt Picnic bezorgt vrijdag niet in de middag

AMSTERDAM (ANP) - Onlinesupermarkt Picnic bezorgt vrijdag vanwege de hitte alleen 's ochtends en 's avonds. Tussen 13.00 en 18.00 uur is er geen bezorging.

"Door 's ochtends en 's avonds wel te bezorgen, voorkomen we dat heel veel klanten naar de supermarkt moeten, maar zorgen we er tegelijk voor dat de bezorgers veilig kunnen werken", laat een woordvoerder weten.

Het bedrijf stelde eerder al andere hittemaatregelen in voor de bezorgers. Zo zijn er onder meer extra pauzes tussen de ritjes ingelast voor de bezorgers, die ook een pet, zonnebril, bidon en zonnebrandcrème meekrijgen. "Schorten hoeven niet te worden gedragen. Er zijn extra ijsjes en koud drinken aanwezig op de hub", aldus de woordvoerder.
