as a person who reads a lot and has been yelling for months about writers who don’t read, I wholeheartedly endorse Casey’s excellent advice—this bit especially. go to bookstores! go to the LIBRARY!

Since it's still been mostly flying under the radar, a reminder that we have a 30 hour Wong Kar-wai series being released over the next two months.
"Once you start watching it, you will be hooked,” promises @petersob13.bsky.social about Wong Kar-wai’s thirty episode series, BLOSSOMS SHANGAI. Streaming now on the Criterion channel with three new episodes dropping every week:
Wong Kar-wai's Gorgeous, Captivating "Blossoms Shanghai" Arrives on the Criterion Channel | TV/Streaming | Roger Ebert
Wong Kar-wai's Blossoms Shanghai is finally here. It was worth the wait.

I will admit to many frailties and flaws. I am far from perfect and have made plenty of mistakes and there are plenty of things I am bad at.

You could not pay me enough to declare that I am incapable of composing my own insults.
Everything about this might be the saddest thing I’ve ever seen

New — I wrote about the myriad ways journalism’s moral rot manifests, and how our crumbling institutions have created the conditions for it to fester:
Moral rot in elite journalism is killing the whole field
The Nuzzi/RFK Jr. mess and the revelation of Esptein's journo pals lay bare a profound moral absence at the heart of our free press.

Remember the recent middle-of-the-night apartment building raid where children were dragged outside naked & zip-tied in the street while black & Latino residents were _sorted by race_ and piled into separate vans while their apartments were ransacked & robbed? That raid? So it resulted in 0 arrests.

I expect the local station to be back later.

I know, I know - it's not technically slam, but I'm giving it a go! Here's an article about my 1 Point #AusOpen Slam Journey.

Thoughts from the #tennis community out there? Would you give it a go to say you've technically played at a slam?

i hope that halo thing is the final nail in the coffin of that ridiculously retrograde and insulting and patronizing and misogynistic and baby-brained-spice-girls-feminism and just bad business thing of separating women sports fans from sports fans
