Man answering his phone on the train: Yes? Correct, I’m not at work (pause) I’m not going to answer that because I am not at work today. No, you’re going to have to ask someone who is. Goodbye.

Oh man, just remembered the guy who asked for Star Wars by Richard Burton & I was SO PLEASED to decode that he actually wanted War of the Worlds by Jeff Wayne, even though he sternly told me no it was definitely by Richard Burton til I showed him Burton just plays the narrator

The cultural impact of Rob Reiner cannot be understated. Legend isn't big enough a word. It goes to 11. You can't handle the truth. As you wish. I'll have what she's having. I'm your number one fan. You guys wanna see a dead body? The very idea of a bucket list. The West Wing.

"Bluesky is an echo chamber."
"Bluesky doesn't have enough reach"
"Liberals must return to X to challenge the far right"
I'm not a tech bro or a journalist. Your priorities are not my priorities. Stop telling me I need to do anything other than chat about comics & telly with people who seem nice.

We absolutely do not need to know the origin story of Poirot’s mustache complete with flashback. Get back to over the top period detectiving.
WORD I am really, really tired of "we tease the tragic backstory of the detective" can't a detective just detect, the murder is surely sufficient drama.
my favorite thing about the benoit blanc movies is that they aren't really about benoit blanc. he is not grappling with demons from his past. we are not getting flashbacks to the husband whose murder he never solved. he just shows up and does his job like mary poppins for homicides

Zootopia 2 is the highest grossing Hollywood movie of the year & Kpop Demon Hunters was Netflix's most popular movie of all time, but fuck animators, am I right? I hate reading about how huge & beloved this stuff is while knowing how hard creators have it & how it still isn't broadly taken seriously

Loving the Aspel Antiques Roadshow retrospective on BBC Four. He once told me I was the best/quickest interviewer he'd ever had! Lovely chap.

As he celebrates his 100th Birthday this very day, can we all take a moment to acknowledge that time when Dick Van Dyke won the internet internet.
Forever.
