Every year I crave just one day where I can walk out with my dog and can see our field as a blanket of white. Today is that day.

I made it to all four showings of this high school production. How they memorize all those lines I’ll never understand. So impressed. #theater #shakespeare

What a wonderful musical! Crying by the end. ❤️❤️❤️

Love supporting local theater! This is a fun one if you love musicals or Shakespeare but really you don’t have to adore both to enjoy. #musical #theater #localtheater

I mean… no tik tok for 12 hours was telling regarding how much time I invest in the app (not much). But golly… those who rely on it for income must be losing their ever loving minds.

A ★★★★★ review of The Boy & the Octopus (2024)

This made me smile and made me want a movie about Marcellus.

Loved it! boxd.it/7ZphkH

A ★★★★½ review of Inside Out 2 (2024)

I’m basically anxiety & joy. Loved it so very much and all I want for Christmas is an anxiety plushy for my desk at work so I can hold it up when I can’t even. Also… wishing for a pre-menopause versio...

I don’t remember the last time I loved a movie enough to want to go back & see it again. #filmsky #movies #wicked

My hope with Wicked is that it sets the bar for movie adaptations of musicals.Not cutting songs for time was brilliant.Loved how they fleshed out the story and gave us more.This is what will bring us back to the movie houses & get us off the couch. #filmsky #wicked #movies #broadway #musicals

I no longer catalog every single holiday movie (nor ask our tireless editors to edit such a monster), but I would never leave you without a holiday movie guide, so here it is.

NPR’s Pop Culture Happy Hour - My personal gateway to the podcast world. Movies, music, books, tv, etc. It’s like talking to your BFF’s at the water cooler about all the best things. The bonus “What’s Making Us Happy” segments add the latest & greatest insight from the cool kids at PCHH. 4/

Dinner’s on Me - Jesse Tyler Ferguson takes people out to dinner and they chat and eat. My favorite is when he interviews Broadway stars but I’ve yet to hear an interview that bored me. And listening to them describe food is fun even with my celiac issues. He’s just so nice. ❤️What’s not to like? 3/

Smartless - Surprising each other with a mystery guest? Genius. Even if the guest is someone I’m not familiar with (which is a rarity) it’s the hilarious banter between the fab 3 that keeps me coming back. Also check out their roadtrip on Netflix. 2/

I love listening to podcasts when driving. I’d love to know what I’m missing out on. What are YOUR top 3? #Smartless #DinnersOnMe #PopCultureHappyHour #podcasts 1/

Sally @sallysam.bsky.social · Nov 26

Wait… I’m an avid listener of NPR Pop Culture Happy Hour and somehow missed that you write novels. I mean… sometimes I admittedly space/stress out while listening but… Best day ever!

Absolutely! Though to be fair I’ve only seen two of his films. 😃

This makes me so happy! Jeff Goldblum listing his own movies as his four favorite movies and then some is everything. #letterboxd #wicked

boxd.it/7TtcEr Why did no one tell me about this movie? #singstreet #movies #📽️ #filmsky #Letterboxd

A ★★★★½ review of Sing Street (2016)

Oh my heart. Why had I never heard of this one before? Loved it so much. Full of 80’s, hope & 80’s music. What more do we want really?

The thing about being a teacher that surprises me the most is the feeling that someone is always disappointed in me. As a people pleaser this has been “aching sense of dread” hard. Is it just me? #EduSky
