there is an entire chapter about SNL, specifically centered on Lorne Michaels, in my 2023 book Burn It Down. Because the echoing silence about the man has always bothered me too. Sure there are profiles of him, but they are puffery & follow a formula. Anyway, fyi: bookshop.org/p/books/burn...

I have lived that song since I was 13 years old. Some perspective: I'm about to check to see if the limited edition Oklahoma!, Carousel, or Godspell albums I ordered from London have arrived

Hey all! @neonsplatter.bsky.social was nice enough to host the first thing I've written in ages - a very autobio kind of thing about how my love for video stores mirrored my coming out process. "Like" and "share," as they say (I forgot how to promote stuff) www.neonsplatter.com/editorials/c...

This is from Danny Trejo’s daughter. I couldn’t figure out how he got involved with it. Looks like Shapiro duped Trejo, which isn’t surprising. I won’t watch the movie

Brought a bunch of movies to watch with my mom. Her BD player rejected Killers of the Flower Moon. We turned off Captains of the Clouds after 20 minutes bc Cagney was being such an asshole and ended up watching... another ep of Midsomer Murders (our third on this visit). Good trip 👍

Just reading the episode titles (each named after a HS subject. Prom night is called AP Bio) made me less enthusiastic about watching. Now this and I'm losing interest even faster. And I have Kimberly Peirce remake on BD, so it's not like I have unreasonable standards

I was tempted to pirate HP, curiosity and all that. But @jessiegender.bsky.social is right - think of the amount of times HBO commented on GOT leaks and downloads, just as an example. They DO track these things, and even that drives interest. Let this show die. Trans people deserve better.

Aside from Chris Hansen being a narcissist and the established facts, everything about Primetime feels made up. Enjoyed the hell out of it tho. Very dark comedy and potential camp classic. Pattinson was great. Check out the doc Predators

This whole "Choosin' Texas" thing reminds me of the times people have gotten mad at me for not knowing a song. I don't think I can be more obvious about my niche taste in music. I have hundreds of cast albums. Listening to the radio actually is a waste of money for me

A ★★★★½ review of Annie Get Your Gun (1957)
Watching Mary Martin's Annie Oakley is absolute heaven. John Raitt is more animated here than he was in The Pajama Game. I finally got a glimpse of what made him a Broadway star. It's really a delight...
