I don't care about Halloween but I did just reserve my dog's spot for Photos with Santa at our new local mall!

Yeah it was weird. I had issues with them ignoring Dee's run on The Challenge and Angela on Amazing Race too but that's not as egregious. Maybe he'll get to go on Traitors and be more appreciated.

This is how I have felt for the last year except the more time went on, the more I became convinced I never had "real" experience. My editorial skills should translate to other things but I'm too tired to keep rewriting my resume to prove that.

I would love to hear from Jason (and maybe he did this interview but I missed it) about being a Paramount reality star who wasn't called an icon. I doubt it was his choice but if he had leaned into his #DragRace fame when the game didn't want him too he probably would have been punished by producers

She probably used AI to create her songs. Ignorance of the original music is not an excuse, but this is what AI does when trying to create new "art."

Been living in FL for three weeks. Just saw my first pro-Trump ad. They have him quoted as saying he'll get rid of the fascists. I would laugh if I didn't know people are stupid enough to not see the irony.

We all poured one out for The CW last night, right? I have so many great memories of covering their dramas and it breaks my heart at what the scrappy little network has become. Once again though, @whitneyfriedlander.com says it better than I ever could. www.latimes.com/entertainmen...

From creating 'crack for girls' to superhero TV: The untold history of the CW, 20 years later
When the WB and UPN merged 20 years ago, the result was the CW, a network that took younger viewers seriously, spawning stars and hit series like 'Gossip Girl,' 'The Vampire Diaries' and 'Arrow.'

I was planning to spend most of this week at the beach because fall? I don't know her. But it's supposed to rain. Thankfully Netflix has prepared for this and is dropping episodes of #Outside daily. I'm obsessed with #Inside and this takes things so much further; it's already the best!

If an account aggregates actual reporting without linking to the source, block it. Don’t complain that AI is killing search (and, in turn, publishers), then crib reporters’ work to build your own following. If you value journalism, send people to the journalism.

Meet Derek.
An AI add with a stickfigure using a computer: "Meet Derek. AI every day. Always hitting a wall. Then he found evenfall. Private AI chat. No ads. No behavioural tracking. More room to create.Screenshots from "The Good Place" of Jason Mantzoukas (Derek) saying: Well I wasn't technically designed for this. But to be fair, I wasn't designed for anything."

My first Emmys on the East Coast in decades. I hope I can stay up to see the full show. My old ass is tired. Plus my furniture still hasn't been delivered so all I have is a mattress and it's so comfy I fall asleep unintentionally all the time.

Did we also forget the scrutiny of Biden's memory lapses? This should really put them into context now. I had a lot of criticism about how Bush handled 9/11 and the war, but I would welcome him back now to crap all over this.

I want to quote screenshot this whole excellent piece from Marisa, but this especially - we *make* the words, we don't just regurgitate without the feeling, without the things that makes us human.
AI may help you construct content, but it will not create memories. It will, at best, rehash ones you already made, and at worst, create false ones. It does not experience, it does not struggle, it does not feel: all essential parts of turning a pile of information into a story.

Pro tip: If you're ever driving across Texas, skip the license plate game and play "debris or roadkill" instead.

Danielle Turchiano @danielletbd.bsky.social · 05/09/2026
Agree and yet... I am driving cross-country right now and the amount of times I have looked at my dog in the passenger seat and said, "I'm bored. I wish you could play the license plate game with me" is ridiculous. This country (at least my route) is so flat and dull. It all looks the same!

Has anyone recut #GilmoreGirls so Sookie is the protagonist? (i.e. just edited out scenes without her) Because I'd watch that over and over.

Agree that it's the way they're used that I think makes them immoral. But I still feel gross about the fact that we as a culture watch everything from behind screens and feel the need to document so much ridiculous stuff -- these are just lenses, instead of phones.

Danielle Turchiano @danielletbd.bsky.social · 21/08/2026
Sometimes I watch my dog doing something cute and wish I was filming but my instinct was not to grab a phone. If I was wearing Meta glasses, there's clearly no thinking involved when filming. That's bad, I know that's bad, it makes me feel gross. Yet if there's ONE acceptable use, I think it's this.

I still want to do Quinta Brunson's Cold Ones idea where you just eat ice cream while doing an interview. Way more fun. I used to have Wii with the Stars. I was ahead of my time.

I don't think they HAVE to. But that's a whole strategy and who's in control discussion. But also, if they are going to end up on Hot Ones, I need them to stop telling Sean he's so good at his questions. He memorizes a lot of preamble to make it seem complex but the questions are usually basic.

I had an LA bagel the other day and cried. I'm moving to Florida next month. I hope it's easier to get NY style bagels there. It's closer! So many NYers migrated there! Am I going to have to franchise a place myself? Where's my GoFundMe?

Very excited! I will be on the road when it drops but it will be the first book I read on my new hometown beach...if I can wait that long. Maybe I'll just read slowly at rest stops instead of in one sitting on the sand, which is so unlike me. Congrats, Liz!

Emily from #RHOC has been on Vicki about being a Debbie Downer on their season. I think you need to get her to weigh in on Girls Trip.

"Carter said that Seasons 10 and 11 of the show, revived in the 2010s, gave X-Files fans “their fill of Mulder and Scully and their relationship." I was a casual #XFiles watcher at best but even I know the relationship is WHY so many watched. That Chris thinks there is ever enough "fill" is wild.

Wikipedia is not a primary source. Should be obvious since articles there use citations, but let's just say it's not.
