I’ve never seen any of “Kill Bill”, so I was already interested in this theatrical re-release. Now that I’ve discovered I’m having dinner tonight at the “House of Blue Leaves” restaurant (Gonpachi Nishi-Azabu) in Tokyo, I’m even more excited to catch it once and for all. variety.com/2025/film/ne...

This is extremely well done and it makes me think there's a market for these kinds of 2-minute pop culture explainers from people who are actually experts at researching things. I know I can find a million explainers on social media, but archivists really know how to break it down and lay it out

Same, so very glad that today is a tattoo day.

I feel like my mental health is entirely dependent on a crisp fall breeze (WHERE is it) and next week's tattoo appointment.

I’m EXTREMELY delighted to have scored a last minute spot for Pink Mince at the Brussels Ass Book Fair this November! No turkey me this year, but I’d much rather give thanks for sharing Pink Mince with a whole new crowd, anyway. brusselsassbookfair.be pinkmince.com

This is why I honestly believe it was sensible for Apple to stop including cables with all its smaller products.

Every few years comes the need for The Purge — finding new homes for all the excess, close-to-obsolete cables and accessories that accumulate.

I’ve been making zines for about 45(!) years, and the longer I do it the more incredible I think it is that so many people have done so much essential work just by realizing that there’s no one to stop them from using the means of production for themselves and their communities.

Same happened with my mom as she slowed down. We worried at first, but after a while realized she was just going with what felt comfortable for her, like she still had some agency in her choices.
