I know the public’s attention span is shit but we have to stop the thing of showing the best part of the video at the very beginning of the video.

Has anyone else seen Puddles Pity Party? It felt like the kind of show you’d see at 2am in a dungeon in Edinburgh with twelve other people except there are several thousand people here.

as always, the answer here is to listen to survivors and then to push for actual, meaningful change. but when that doesn't happen, the focus shifts to pressuring survivors to relive their trauma and share it in public forums, be confronted by it in public forums, and THEN have nothing happen

I’ve perhaps said yes to too much. In the next four weeks I have events in five cities, a full workload I have to be in person for, and apparently for one of those weeks I’m feeding someone’s cat.

Deeply interested in the economics of how cheap to midrange hotels always have a microwave and free breakfast and more expensive hotels rarely do. Like do rich people just have no use for leftovers and love to spend $50 on brunch or what

the Heroic Protector Fantasy is rarely of real use to women, it's just wish fulfillment about male posturing and it frequently exacerbates violence it's also much easier to imagine yourself kicking the ass of an obviously villainous stranger than to to actually intervene where you have influence

Whenever we successfully legislate against Ticketmaster’s fees and dynamic pricing can we also make it illegal to not let you buy tickets if you leave one empty seat beside you?

Just finished Hollywood, Ending. It’s my favorite of John’s fiction, but I think it still falls behind his nonfiction in my personal enjoyment. It’s been nice being in what feels like a worldwide book club this week. Going to his tour stop Tuesday.

I came up with some more inane bullshit for everyone to argue about!
(September 23, 2026 at 10:44am)
Fake opinions to argue over…
- Never turn left on a first date.
- Every kindergarten student should have an unpaid internship.
- The periodic table is too sexual.
- Bigfoot should be allowed to vote.
- Having a dream is the same as reading a book.
- You can wear a crop top to a funeral if the deceased person was hot when they died.

If I had real friends one of them would have told me this is what Naveen Andrews looks like now (and by now I mean 2022, they’ve had time!)
Naveen Andrews and Amanda Seyfried in The Dropout. Naveen looks distinguished, with shorter than usual hair that’s graying at the temples, and is wearing glasses.

Had a good run in August where I read nine books. Been struggling to focus on the two I started since. I try to stick to one nonfiction and one fiction at a time but may have to break that rule unless I can read 285 pages and work a full day before picking up H, E tonight

“Best” and “favorite” can be wildly different lists but I tried to follow my heart. One notable exception here for the show that probably influenced my life the most for the longest but “made me mentally ill” could be a different list entirely.
NYT top 10 shows infographic. I listed Lost, Taskmaster, Interview with the Vampire, Fleabag, Game Changer, The Rehearsal, Succession, Ted Lasso, The Office (US), and Schitt’s Creek.

The man ICE shot in Austin today is named Wilber Rafael Garces Perez. Per his lawyer, she and Perez’s family were run off of hospital property where he’s being treated and won’t even confirm he’s there because he’s “in ICE custody.” Actual criminals.
