btw, I loved Ike's cameo in King of Ashes. Too bad Dante couldn't heed his advice.

I try reread this every so often. There's no such thing as a perfect novel, but As I Lay Dying is, like, really close.

I recently bought The Last King of California based mostly on the front cover blurb you provided. It also has a great first line which really sealed it.

Question re: Lake of America... does this mean we have to change the lyrics to The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald?

Sure, Dolly and Tim are getting all the headlines, but we've lost another giant this week in Jaye P. Morgan. Like Curry, Morgan had a small part in Home Alone 2. What a weird cast that movie had. www.hollywoodreporter.com/tv/tv-news/j...

Saw this box score and wondered: how exactly does one earn a save in a 13-1 blowout? Turns out, if you pitch the final three or more innings, regardless of score, you get a save. Ray Burgos fulfilled that exact requirement and thus earned his first save of the season. Baseball is weird.

Whenever I go for a walk and encounter someone I don't know, my default greeting is "Hey neighbor!" Which means that everyone I meet thinks I'm either Fred Rogers, Wilson from Home Improvement, or Frank Booth.

It is the Information Age in name only. Thanks to the constant firehose of GOP lies and misinformation, actual information is buried under several layers of bullshit.

@meganabbott.bsky.social You wrote it forever ago, but I only finished it last night and spent today with that ending still reverberating. Whatever I read next has a hard act to follow.
