It’s the “season of love and giving”…but this year, doesn’t it seem more like a “season of fear and taking”? Like many of you, I’ve been saddened by the human impact of draconian government budget cuts and how angry many housed Americans are at unhoused Americans.

Anyway, one of my favorite movies this year was The Long Walk
Donald Trump just announced the creation of the “Patriot Games,” an “unprecedented four-day athletic event” with “one young man and one young woman from each state and territory.”

One of my favorite threads ☺️
The most stressed out I've ever been about Christmas was when I was 16 and I got my first ever job, working at M&S in Dundrum. As soon as I started I kept hearing these myths about the Christmas Eve Waste Sale, where all the food that wasn't sold on the 24th was marked down 90%.

As a director Rob Reiner was really more than a collaborator than an auteur, and I mean that as a compliment. Rob Reiner had a talent for collaboration that few artists have ever matched

Rob Reiner: I'm going to make a coming of age drama, a fantasy adventure story, a romantic comedy, a psychological horror and then a courtroom drama.

Us: Across your entire career?

Reiner: In a 6 year period.

Us: That sounds-

Reiner: -Each one will be arguably the best movie in that genre.

The only downside to really enjoying Wake Up Dead Man is that it's hard not to get annoyed thinking about how fun it would have been to see it in a theater.

idk how to explain this but modern american politics feels like if you took 2016 and ran it through a copy machine ten thousand times in a row

Not to get *too* personal, but I have my first mammogram ever today and it's triggering a little age-related crisis in me lol

All Creatures Great & Small isn't technically a Christmas show, but it still feels like the perfect time to start a new season. 🥰

No one has scammed and beclowned the human race like cats. "Aww she's sitting on me" she's sapping your energy. "Aww she's purring" she's communicating with the devil, her father in hell

the crimes are obviously worse but there's also the constant indignities of all formal levers of government communication being taken over by people with a schoolyard bully's vocabulary and the pugilistic instinct of a drunk at the second bar that's cut them off that night
