Here's something to remember when interacting with people who hurt you - you don't owe them anything but you don't have to go out of your way to make them pay either.

At a certain point, what's the point in trying so hard anymore? I worked ten hours last night, I've been everywhere everyone asked on time and everything is just...ugh.

Whether you knew of @kumail.bsky.social pre or post Marvel muscle glow-up, you've got something to look forward to with his new special Night Thoughts. He's back and at the top of his standup game.
Kumail Nanjiani's "Night Thoughts" Special is a Fantastic Return To Form. (No, It's not a Muscle Joke)
Of all the muscled glow-ups there are to talk about, his was my favorite - because not only did it reflect a change we as fans knew was important to that scrawny kid, it was also for a Marvel movie. S...

Brown University released a statement about a Palestinian student that's being smeared online as the shooting suspect.

Not going to share his post because it includes the student's personal info but one of those spreading this harmful rumor was the spokesperson for Turning Point USA, Andrew Kolvet.

Rob Reiter, president of the Chicago Federation of Labor, said Border Patrol agents harassing a picket line was "the crossing of a line" for Chicago workers.

"You know what the difference is between the labor movement here in Chicago and Greg Bovino and his team? We're not cowards," he added.

One of the most infuriating things I've heard since Rob Reiner died was someone saying Trump was "really STARTING to annoy" them.
STARTING?!?

WTF?STARTING? The man's got less respect and decorum than we teach toddlers, he's a child rapist war criminal and you're STARTING to have qualms?

I can't.

Is it that the probiotic sheet mask broke you out, or is it that you keep rubbing your face in satisfaction going "ooooo, my skin's so soft now..."

Most of the time, it's the latter. But ooooo, my skin is so soft now. AND it smells like strawberries.

My new quest is to go back and watch my favorites of Rob Reiner's work and some of the ones I never got around to.

A Thing I Haven't Written Yet is "Disgraceful American President Surprises No One with Disgusting Take on Reiner Murders, Total Lack of Empathy/Humanity" but like, that's the whole thing.

I can't with anyone pretending there's any way he's not an inhumane, dishonest child rapist embarassment.

If you know me, you know The Princess Bride is my favorite movie of all time, and I'm gutted by the loss of Rob Reiner.

As we try to process this, maybe it'll help to process it through the lens of the film's cast, and their heartfelt tributes and memories.

Worth a shot.

I cannot tell you how excited I was for this, nor how lucky I feel to have gotten to cover it and photograph it. Eccleston is a class act (and Annette Badland is amaaaazing) and ...yeah. It was a new high for me at @chicagotardis.bsky.social

Why is it that personal injury/car accident attorneys seem to think that the more outlandish, absurd and cartoonish they act the more people will trust them in a situation in which they've been in a wreck. I don't care if you judo chop or bark like a dog, I'd just like you to be competent and legal.

It's hard to make these posts and find words. The loss of Rob Reiner and his wife Michele Singer is a tragedy.

What a sad night.
BREAKING: Rob Reiner and Wife Michele Singer Found Dead in Los Angeles Home, Homicide Suspected
Reiner led with laughter and kindness that he wove into his work and "IRL" persona, and we can't help but feel a light go off in that little corner of our childhoods with him leaving so soon.

Editing Chicago TARDIS photos like you do when you're still severely behind and then got in a crash. Anyway, cackling like an idiot because I got to yell "EXTERMINATE!" when I removed the distracting person from my Dalek photo in Lightroom. It's possible all this rest has made me loopy.
