Angela Lansbury as Mrs. Marple (Imagine that. Angela Lansbury solving a murder. What an idea!) and a scene where Kim Novak and Elizabeth Taylor are just tearing into each other verbally. It's a fun one.

In JEEPERS CREEPERS, they misread the monster's personal plate "BEATINGU" as "Beating you" and realize it's "Be Eating You." Anyway, Long John Silvers sent a code for a Valentine's Day meal for two. The code was "MEANDYOU" and my dumb mind was like, "What if they really read it as 'Mean D You'?"

I occasionally throw on @verydumbdog.bsky.social vods as background noise while I sleep (Among Us, Jackbox, multi-people chatting noise) and YouTube consistently autoplays Northern Lion videos after they finish. They're sabotaging my attempts to give this guy a whole $0.04 in ad rev over the year.

Just randomly watching old clips of Robert Osborne introducing movies on Turner Classic Movies for my own personal nostalgia hit. That man's aura and cadence really made me feel like I was experiencing something special every time, such as ensuring I appreciate Cary Grant in "I WAS A MALE WAR BRIDE"

Welp, don't know what I did, but now I feel sick. Great use of a day off. At least I got a couple rooms vacuumed and carpet cleaned. Maybe I'll finish up the dishes after a nap. Thus concludes another "Why am I posting this? Who could possibly care?" post on Bluesky.

The dumbest thing I did last night was light a candle, as if that one little flame would make all the difference. (It's secured against a wall out of curious cat distance) Not even the tiniest bit of placebo "convince myself it's helping" nonsense.

I was readjusting a blanket that I have covering a door downstairs (because it leads to a side room that's not well insulated) and my cat GW snuck out while I wasn't looking. Thankfully, even upstairs, I heard the miserable meows of him stuck in that cold, dark room. Poor cat, poor irritating cat.

I woke up, it's negative 16 degrees, and I'm just unhappy. That's the update. That's the post. That's the skeet. That's all there is.

Blanche on Renee Good: "There are thousands -- unfortunately -- of law enforcement events every year where somebody is shot. The civil rights department of the DOJ does not investigate every one of those shootings."

Wow. It's actually going to theaters. I really thought they'd do an exclusive streaming release for the finale.
