the little kids who live next door are having a GREAT time right now and like, yeah it's 11:00 PM but also there are children laughing so hard they sound like they're about to blast off and that's such a nice thing to hear slightly muffled through a wall and a broken hearing aid

few things give me more joy than my kid using his deepest voice to randomly say "yes, queen, yes!" and then his highest voice to shout "let's roll!", which he just did about sixteen times in a row. I am in pain from laughing.

This is the cloud of oil currently hovering over Tehran, released when the US bombed the city's oil depots. A stew of particulate matter, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, benzene, sulfur dioxide, nitrogen oxides, heavy metals & volatile organic compounds is raining down into the city right now. 1/2

in an era when carnivore diet influencers are in charge of the american nuclear arsenal we have to admit the "annoying vegan" stereotype barely ever actually existed and the "all meat diet guy" is real, increasingly omnipresent, and way more annoying and inconvenient to actually be around

You and I are two journalists talking, essentially.

Yeah. So, I mean, to me, the experience was about, yes, being a reporter-being a cinematographer in a documentary, and doing my best to make Melania look visually beautiful with the lighting.

One thing reporters try to do is to spotlight ideas or news stories, and what you're trying to do is spotlight her face and its beauty. I do see a real similarity there.

Yeah. We were trying to do the best we could.
Again, as I told you, I was the guy with a camera, with a couple of assistants in the Trumps' apartment when they came back to the White House at night.
So there's an interview with Melania at that point, and we organized the lights in the best possible way.

It's important to make them look as good as possible, too. That's part of your job, or our job.
It's not about making them look as good as possible.

It is about making them look as they are without having anything that is distinctively not nice or proper.

hey kids before you type out that comment having to do with someone's appearance, maybe consider that the woman-shaped thing on the internet has probably heard it eight thousand times before. don't. no, even if it's a potential health issue. no, even if you're a nurse. no, even if you're being nice.
