Diane Keaton in her Manhattan apartment with Buster, an Abyssinian, photographed by Jill Krementz in 1977

black & white photograph of young Diane Keaton smiling and standing next to a white refrigerator in a barren-looking kitchen. her cat Buster is crouched on top of the fridge playing with/swatting her hair in the upper right hand corner. she's wearing a long skinny white scarf with a dot-grid pattern, a high-neck white blouse with an ascot/kerchief around the neck, and a black blazer/skirt or blazer dress over what looks like a vest

Heartbreaking reading, but this Reddit thread gives a sense of the relentlessness of the horror inflicted by ICE, and the damage being done to so many innocent people that doesn't make the news.

as per tradition, I am rereading my Notes app Tigers season diary today (you can see me get increasingly panicked as we choke away the division) and there is really no other sport with this emotional rhythm, baseball owns

notes app screenshot:
- is it possible for an entire pitching staff to tip pitches
- gleyber saves me from k*lling myself
- stupid mustache
- will vest plunks eugenio suarez right before the deadline
- bullpen blows game the day after everyone gets mad at
front office for not improving the bullpen enough
- twins traded everyone at the deadline, most obvious series
loss of all time
- matt vierling is the most important man in my life (go
ahead ph homer vs angels)
- anxiously watching rafael montero pitch in extras (dot version of him on mib app) at karaoke, depressingly i also remember the last time i followed a tigers game at defector
karaoke (2024 flaherty start @ bos)
- kyle finnegan is the most important man in my life (vierling
went on the IL)
- stop lining into double plays! stop!
- gleyber walkoff walk
- framber in hell (i miss this entire 6 run 1st inning picking up
my keys and then we only score 1 run the rest of game)
- Got BWJ to GIDP twice, we are winning the world series
- I KNEW IT WAS COMING but sacramento skubal start fml
- losing on a walk off walk a week after winning on one
- seeing 9-run yankees inning in person
- kerry ties the game in the bottom of the 9th and saves the
season, which we watch at the white sox game
- will vest immediately un-saves it
- tork saves the season
- will vest immediately un-saves it
- omfg i am so desperate brooks lee and royce lewis save
the season
- tarik's brain stops working
- riley: *hits 35 homers and is 24* everyone: "trade him!!!"
- it is friday night and i am watching the late september
angels

They're spinning this as a marketing fail but I think the real story is just that people are stupid as fucking rocks now fortune.com/2025/10/10/p...

Lay's drastically rebrands after disturbing finding: 42% of consumers didn't know their chips were made out of potatoes | Fortune

New bags—matte-ified and designed to look like wood planks (like a potato crate)—will hold the chips with revamped ingredient lists.

Can you think of a single movie in which there is a video from the government denouncing its political opponents playing on a loop in public spaces in which that government was the good guy?

It is my great good fortune that OBAA is still going to be in local theaters as my Moviegoing course begins (next week). Most weeks they’ll get to vote on what they’re gonna go see, but for the first week, it’s PTA, baby! Can’t wait to see how it lands with them!
