Yeah, but what’s Trump secretly building *underneath* his new ballroom? That ballroom makes for a very convenient front.

It's that time again folks, time to ransack your couch cushions and smash your piggy banks in search of $2.99 for these Kindle deals! Tom Reamy's BLIND VOICES involves a mysterious circus that comes to a small Kansas town, while THE MAN WHO WOULD NOT DIE is an unusual medical-themed ghost story.

The Danes Resisted Fascism, and So Can We
Danish resistance didn’t arrive all at once during World War II. But taken as a whole, the Danes’ actions are a testament to what’s possible when we work together to fight fascism.

If I were Jimmy Kimmel, I’d let Stephen Colbert guest host my talk show next summer. No rotating weekly guest hosts, just Stephen. Colbert leaves CBS at the end of May, then jumps over to ABC for a few months, leading up to the midterm elections. Make it a total surprise. Think of the ratings.

Stephen Colbert should run for president in 2028. (Assuming fair elections are still on the table in three years.) He has the name recognition, the media training, the liberal base, and ability to fundraise. He’s intelligent and kind, a moral man of faith who’s the perfect antidote to MAGA hypocrisy

I look forward to Colbert’s timeslot replacement: The Dear Leader Trump Propaganda Power Hour.
First they silence the public critics, then they silence the private critics. As Colbert goes, so goes The Daily Show. Another red line crossed in our march to authoritarianism.

We have a neighbor two doors down who likes to belt out karaoke 80s power ballads from his basement. He’s not good. Like, so not good that it’s endearing. Sing your heart out, my man.

Rereading some Doyle. I love it whenever Sherlock Holmes pulls a Gene Parmesan, and Watson freaks out like Lucille Bluth.

I just watched #Stick on Apple TV, the new Owen Wilson golfing drama. It’s good, and I say that as someone who’s not a sports fan. That first episode is the best pilot I’ve seen in ages. Structurally balanced, not an ounce of fat; every wannabe screenwriter should study it as a template.
