Yes, it's true: These two have started up a Hollywood production company. Stilton's page suggests several movie projects (none of which will be shot in Georgia owing to an expected shortage of dead babies), to wit:
THE STOLEN THRONE (Historical Drama) - On the eve of the coronation of a new Queen, an evil court jester seizes power with help from scheming cossacks and deplorable peasants.
OH, WHAT A TANGLED WEBB (Comedy) - A young socialite is stunned to realize that she's the spitting image of her mother's ham-faced goofball former law partner.
GLOW (Action Thriller) - Cancer-stricken Russian orphans will die without radiation treatments. With time running out, one woman risks everything to get them a life-saving supply of U.S. uranium.
HONEY, I ERASED YOUR WEDDING (Comedy) - The wedding of the century is put at risk when the bride's mother accidentally erases a computer hard drive containing all the plans.
DEVIL WITH THE BLUE DRESS (Horror) - A family's personal and professional lives become a living Hell when they're haunted by a vengeful spirit in a stained dress.
IT'S A LIVING! (Romantic Comedy) - She's young, in love, and a con-artist who skims donations from third world dysentery victims. Now she'll take any job to keep her boyfriend from finding out!
ARKANCIDE (Suspense) - One by one, a powerful woman's enemies are dying in strange ways. To clear her name, she must find the real killer with the help of a dangerously violent former football player.

House Dem says she's tired of 'so many sex-starved males' opposing abortion
Turns out the proportions of women and men opposed to abortion are virtually identical. I forget where I read the numbers just recently. Surprised me.

I've said for years that if the father has no vote in the "choice", then there should be no such thing as child-support payments. It's not his choice.
My true feeling is that a woman should have the "right to choose". Rape is a terrible thing. However, once she's made the choice to "do it", she needs to take the responsibility for her "choice", which was to expose herself to the possibility of pregnancy. The choice part is over.

Rape accounts for a negligible number of abortions.
Men's statutory abortion, called a "paper abortion", was proposed in Sweden several years back. It amounted to the man being able to renounce financial responsibility within the same time limit as the woman had to chose whether to kill, which I think was 16 or 18 weeks. Seemed equitable to me; except that the man should have to make his choice a week or so earlier than the woman, because, let's face it, whether she can hope to screw money out of him is going to be a major factor in whether she decides to let her critter live, since my sense of it is that the overwhelming preponderance of abortions are a matter of financial convenience.

Yeah, I didn't think that rape had much to do with abortion. The point was that the woman's choice was made when she decided to have ssex with the guy.

That's a tough choice to make when 1) Nature demands seks, 2) Most every movie & song incorporate fornication, 3) Culture expects girls to emulate boys in seksual predation, 4) God is dead.

The U.S. government racked up a deficit of $208B in May as it received $232B but spent $440B during the month, according to a monthly Treasury statement. That means for the first time in U.S. history, the federal government spent more than $3T in the first eight months of the fiscal year. The deficit's rise follows the 2017 GOP tax act, which the CBO projected would add some $1.9T to the debt over a decade, as well as bipartisan plans to increase spending on both the defense and domestic sides of the ledger.

Newswise — COLUMBUS, Ohio – A study of thousands of patients’ health records found that those who were prescribed cholesterol-lowering statins had at least double the risk of developing type 2 diabetes.
The detailed analysis of health records and other data from patients in a private insurance plan in the Midwest provides a real-world picture of how efforts to reduce heart disease may be contributing to another major medical concern, said Victoria Zigmont, who led the study as a graduate student in public health at The Ohio State University.
Statins are a class of drugs that can lower cholesterol and blood pressure, reducing the risk of heart attack and stroke. More than a quarter of middle-aged adults use a cholesterol-lowering drug, according to recent federal estimates.
Researchers found that statin users had more than double the risk of a diabetes diagnosis compared to those who didn’t take the drugs. Those who took the cholesterol-lowering drugs for more than two years had more than three times the risk of diabetes.
