I once watched Matty scream "YES HE DID!!!!" as a rebuttal during an all-school debate team presentation. He has apparently stayed the same person he was in middle school.

I got a full episode guide for Quantum Leap! We could talk to JMS after every episode of Babylon 5! There was an MST3K game where you competed to riff random still images pulled from the Sci-Fi Channel feed! @seanbaby.bsky.social was/is the funniest single person I ever read! The Internet was great.

Did the nine-albums thing and could probably do it three more times with albums that have a claim to being my number-one all-timer.
Nine albums in a grid: Elvis Costello "Get Happy", Sleater-Kinney "All Hands on the Bad One", The Beatles "Revolver", Jean-Luc Ponty "A Taste for Passion", The Who "Who's Next", The Kinks "The Kinks Are The Village Green Preservation Society", Squeeze "Argybargy", The Cars "The Cars", Huey Lewis and the News "Self Titled"

The greatest twist ending I've seen in a long time was the phrase "Directed by Michael Showalter" at the end of the Verity trailer. What do you MEAN Solamente Doug directed Verity?

Bring back Unsolved Mysteries in its original format with Keely Shaye Smith and then give the main host role to Pierce Brosnan. Imagine that couple telling you about fugitives and ghosts and kids with ESP and orphan trains for an hour every week.

Like I can almost understand Dolly losing to "Fame" because that thing was a juggernaut. But Paul Williams should have multiple Oscars by now.

He had spent so long working hard at his craft and he knows he hit the nerd jackpot; it's just cool to see someone like that succeed. (I wish more MSTies knew his stand-up, because I quote his "TJ Maxx is the coolest kid at your school" routine all the time.)

Rest in peace to Richard Harrison, impeccable B-movie master, part of one of the funniest movie endings of all time.

If Eggers was making R&J in Italian or something I could understand. It would still be stupid, but I would understand.

He was a really good dude with maybe the best memory I'd ever seen in another person. Chad remembered everything about everyone and greeted us all so warmly every time. Shout out to The Movie Gang screenings he'd run; he wanted us all to love things as much as he loved them.

Hunter kid with a Stuyvesant brother checking in, and holy shit "I sent an email and then totally ignored my child's first-hand accounts of her unhappiness". Hannah-Jones is raising an experiment, not a child.

Folks are watching my dumb little tiktok videos and I'm well into my second novel draft of the year. After years of stumbling about the creative streak is finally back, and not a moment too soon.

You should be watching @jparish.bsky.social's incredible NES Works series, but especially now so that you can join me in my feeling of "...IKARI WARRIORS?" looking at the new Virtual Console offerings.

It's twenty-five years since 9/11 and I have run out of things to say. Recounting the moments doesn't seem to do any good. And now we are mourning the people who died because they just wanted to help.

I finished Draft Zero on one novel today, started the next one, and began writing character breakdowns on my series bible. It feels good to finally have momentum on my work.

The level of trauma, as a NYer, that the annual 9/11 -thing- causes me is hard to describe. A thing happened; it was horrific; and now for 25 years I’ve listened to people lie about my city, my friends, and the whole goddamn world because of it. This year feels more egregious than most.

Everyone has a favorite Tim Curry movie, and mine is Times Square. A cult movie that deserves a bigger cult. Show up for Tim Curry as a manipulative rock DJ greek chorus, stay for docu-drama 1979 NYC and Robin Johnson giving maybe the best teen actor performance ever.
The vinyl soundtrack and Kino Lorber bluray edition of Alan Moyle's 1980 film Times Square. Both covers show the same image (in different color grading and style) of two teenage girls in hip outfits. Tim Curry appears on a giant button on Robin Johnson's leather jacket.

When I was ten I decided that I was going to make the movie adaptation of A Wrinkle in Time and spent the summer storyboarding the whole thing. What an incredible book.

Coyote Vs. Acme is just as good as you would hope. I have certain nitpicks on structure and exposition but it is a worthy addition to the Merry Melodies canon.
