Hello! So far my thing here has been posting blue skies on Bluesky. Though I may post other stuff, I think in general I’ll only be posting positive things here and save venting for Twitter. I wanna keep this a positive space.

This is true and I was the only one on set excited about it (and playing the song on my phone to blank stares)

Just watched the new Knives Out and I think it's really important you know that the scene in the Seminary's Gym is filmed in the same place Rick Astley filmed the music video for Never Gonna Give You Up.

I saw the window tracery and immediately made my friends pause the film so I could tell them.

I’m rewatching season 1 of Percy Jackson because listening to The Newest Olympian by @schub.es convinced me to, and the episode needed to buffer at THE BEST time. 😂
A picture of a TV with a scene from Percy Jackson and the Olympians season 1 on screen. Percy (played by Walker Scobel) is on the left and Annabeth (played by Leah Jeffries) is on the right. They are on the water ride Tunnel of Love in Hephaestus’s water park, falling over a steep waterfall with terrified looks on their faces.

I'm at my most Italian when someone disrespects pasta. I just heard someone refer to all of pasta as spaghetti and I fell to my knees.

Episode 2 of #PercyJackson Season 2 had an iconic 80s movie reference in the chariot race scene. But the question is: did any of the young cast know what they were emulating? I sat down with the #PercyJacksonAndTheOlympian Executive Producers to find out.

Wake Up Dead Man is fantastic and right up my alley. As a whodunnit fan, I loved the mystery. As a comedy fan, I laughed throughout. As a Catholic who is embarrassed by how some misuse the faith for evil, I think the movie showed the good and bad of religion. Also it’s BEAUTIFULLY shot. 10/10. A+.

A million Muslims live in New York City. We belong here, as does every other New Yorker.

This is vile Islamophobia from the Councilwoman and it has no place in our city.
A Quote Tweet from NYC Councilmember Vickie Paladino @VickieForNYC stating: “We’re in the midst of a global jihad the likes of which the world has never seen, and we cannot ignore it. “We need to take every seriously the need to begin the expulsion of Muslims from western nations, or at the very least the severe sanction of them within western borders. “The administration needs to begin developing a formal legal framework for the denaturalization process and get it over with before we end up with another 9/11 or worse. Enough is enough.” The quoted tweet from @DrewPavlu stating: “AUSTRALIAN HERO TOOK GUN OFF SHOOTER “TERROR ATTACK SYDNEY AT LEAST 10 DEAD “AUSTRALIAN HERO TOOK DOWN GUNMAN”

What was already a gut punch hits even harder learning that Rob Reiner was a dedicated activist. May his legacy in the arts and society live on forever ❤️

Rob Reiner was one of the key people behind the effort to go to court to overturn California's anti-marriage equality Proposition 8 when it passed in 2008.

Working with Chad Griffin, they founded the American Foundation for Equal Rights and got Ted Olson and David Boies to team up to fight Prop 8.
