Just a heads-up that Netflix has added a bunch of Catherine O'Hara movies. Credit where due!

Catherine O'Hara on Jiminy Glick. She's just firing stuff at him left and right. She makes up a negative review he wrote about her!

Ya done good, kids! I was thinking Montgomery County, AL, which is probably 110% white, but nevertheless...
Husband just texted me that the kids in Magnolia are protesting ICE today. You should know that Magnolia is in Montgomery County, a Trump stronghold, and is about 70% white. The kids are alright.

Dr Oz: Would You Want This Man's Hands on Your Heart??🙄
They hate women. Saying ‘these moms’ took bribes. Always the women. Blatant strange creepy women hating men.
Dr Oz: "Minnesota expected to spend $3 million for autism. It's now $400 million. Why? Because everybody in the community signed their kids up as though they're autistic. Why? You're paying them. These moms literally took bribes to lie that their kids had autism."

Genuinely touching story.

Well done, @rebalynn.bsky.social.
Terrific story about community.

Definitely. Astrologically explained by my Grand Water Trine, which makes me emotional. That and being part Irish.
Yes.
I'm kinda curious. Do people ever get really teary eyed when you're writing an especially sad scene? Like describing the death of a loved one?

I do, I also ALWAYS get sad when anything remotely sad happens in a movie or show. Or even in a book...I was curious to know if other people get that way))

Hello?? Where are the leaders of the Democratic Party??
ICE is now claiming it can arrest people without a warrant.

This comes after another internal memo asserting ICE agents can forcibly enter homes without a judicial warrant.

Hello? Democrats cannot let these blatantly unconstitutional actions continue. Not another penny for ICE.

Oh, wait! We DID impeach him, Professor Feldman, Trump's LAST term, but Congress just "Impeached" him like they did Andrew Johnson, with no consequences. Ha! You got me!

Is he also tearing down the East Wing to build a Big Beautiful Ballroom??? #belowloathsome
Unreal. He’s shutting down the Kennedy Center, after his flunkies caused mass defections of artists?

Everything the man touches turns to ash. Our cultural heritage; destroyed. Our national treasures; plundered.
Trump: "I have determined that the fastest way to bring The Trump Kennedy Center to the highest level of Success, Beauty, and Grandeur, is to cease Entertainment Operations for an approximately two year period of time, with a scheduled Grand Reopening that will rival and surpass anything."

Choked me up, knowing there's no more of her comedy gold coming...
Perfect clip. I found myself tearing up as the other singers came rushing from their dressing rooms to see them.

And we all watch and listen to them now, knowing there will be nothing new from her to enrich and amuse and delight us.
People are going to post a ton of incredible comedy bits from Catherine O’Hara — she’s been a legend for decades — but for me the clip I’m sharing is this moment from the doomed Mitch and Mickey romance in A Mighty Wind. She is already terribly missed.

And H.L. Mencken could get very bitter (I'm a longtime reader of our regional THE BALTIMORE SUN. Though not H.L. Mencken era long!)
“Democracy is the theory that the common people know what they want, and deserve to get it good and hard.”

—H.L. Mencken at his most bitter.

Today we say, “Elections have consequences.”

My Bestest Boy Russy, who had stomach cancer diagnosed 10/25; lymphoma 11/25. On Monday, we went to his vet with Uncle Rich; I let Russy go peacefully, free from his pain. I did right by him, but it hurts #loveauntiepony

Am hoping that I'll get a longer attention span than 20 seconds sometime soon. I knew losing Russy would be hard, but frankly... my only child hasn't been involved much in my life for years. Russy was my son.
