I feel so gutted I actually called my mother…
…which of course the the exact wrong thing to do when I need to express a feeling, but that’s how dire things are…

I’ve adored her for so long, SCTV reruns were fundamental
What a life but also so hard to say goodbye

Our thoughts are with O'Hara's friends and family at this difficult time — she will be sorely missed.

I finally saw MERCY and holy shit, they really did make a dystopian movie where the whole point is that we should cut the dystopia some slack.
It’s like a perverse FAHRENHEIT 451 that ends with Guy Montag telling his totalitarian bosses, “Your heart is in the right place. That’s all that matters.”

Having a chronically ill body is just so wild because around 10am I finally figured I should get up and get some food even if I wasn’t hungry and that was 9 hours ago and I still have no appetite…
And it’s not even a bad flare up day, pretty baseline actually

So glad someone is still out there asking the Big Questions…
Question prompted by me explaining broad outlines of Discovery to my Starfleet Academy-curious son: is Jett Reno or Tig Notaro the more Star Trek-coded name? For that matter, is Jett Reno more of a Star Wars name?
a woman is sitting in front of a computer and says did you bring any snacks .
Alt: Jett Reno asks, "Did you bring any snacks?"

2025 couldn’t just pack its shit and leave, nope had to take one more iconic performer
Fuck this year, he will be so very missed

Whitlock made "Shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit" into more than a quippy catchphrase. It's Clay Davis' ethos, a justifiably incredulous reaction illustrating how he, and often the audience, viewed the machinations of Baltimore. It's a pillar for the whole fully realized, wonderfully played character. #RIP
Isiah Whitlock Jr., ‘The Wire’ and ‘Veep’ Actor, Dies at 71
He appeared in several films for Spike Lee, including '25th Hour,' 'BlacKkKlansman' and 'Da 5 Bloods.'
