inhaled Selling The City because these shows are my most humiliating addiction and while the cast is mostly underwhelming and the drama is often inscrutable at least it has the iconically bizarre musical choices of the rest of the franchise

The occasional live TV event always reminds me that American pharmaceutical ads are some of the most uniquely troubling and deranged things created by anyone ever. Why's a CGI turtle asking me to talk to my doctor?

reading Justin Baldoni's entire lawsuit against the NYT, and this text from Blake Lively is more "Celebrities Are Just Like Us!" than 99% of entries in Us Weekly's "Celebrities Are Just Like Us!"

The funniest part of 2024 was every single time Cole Escola said, "The south of WHAT," in Oh, Mary.

Finally watching The Americans and it’s triggering that Bourne Response in me where every time I watch or read something about spies I think, “I’d be so good at that.” Anyway here’s me at the beginning and, 30 seconds later, the end of my interview at any intelligence agency:

Radioactive, the podcast about Karen Silkwood’s death, released its finale today. A major revelation never comes, but in its place is a statement from Karen’s daughter—a moving and eloquent condemnation of true crime obsessions—that I found pretty stunning! podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/r...

about a year ago I started a running list of the "best original songs not nominated for the best original song oscar," which I update each time I remember one. I'm prepared to add all of these 2024 tracks to that list when (based on current predictions) they're ignored. really good stuff this year!

An absurdly deep dive on the question on everybody's minds—or at least ours: Are Luigi and Chuck Mangione related?

arriving home from a Tuesday morning 10th anniversary Interstellar screening in IMAX and seeing signs from other dimensions everywhere… what could it mean, and how could it save us…

A few months ago I had the idea to set iconic movie endings to "You Got the Love" a la Sex and the City's series finale in an effort to prove, I'm not quite sure... Anyway, here's the first and only one I've made. (BlueSky's 60-second limit hurts this but... oh well.)

All five of the fiction titles on the list are from PRH. That seems bad.
