I just reviewed the NYC ballot measures and I’m voting no on everything except number 5.

I want Cher’s coat from Moonstruck.
Cher in a tweed coat looking quizzically off screen. Moonstruck 1987.

Call me when the pope starts excommunicating members of the Supreme Court, members of the Trump admin, and refuses to meet with US officials.

Until then…it’s all ratlines to me.

* looks at Microsoft doing co-pilot shittery*

Damn, I’m gonna have to buy an old ThinkPad and run Linux now.

PopOs thumb drive to the rescue again.

Seems like it’s a bad idea to give the okay to blanket parties then piss off an entire room full of high ranking generals and admirals.

This has to be an aristocrat. Lord Kinbugger is tired of peasant blood in his noble line.

If you pause in exactly the right moment you’ll see a bottle of Astroglide on the shelf in the background. That’s when Eric Adams became Lube Cop to my circle.

Congrats to everyone on Bluesky. We’re un-American apparently.

This has “I was a sex pest at the nudist colony” vibes.

This person has never taken a class about the 18th century novel or read any thing by Samuel Richardson.

If the National Review wrote this about me it’d be the front of my business card.

Really showing their William F. Buckley here.

How to reveal someone as an intellectually dishonest coward in four sentences. Jesus.

Kissinger wasn’t a monster because he came to my book party is why I take no conservative or centrist intellectuals seriously.

I, too, hope the Evangelicals all get raptured.

We can finally have Star Trek style fully automated luxury space communism.

Or just people in charge whose knowledge of science is greater than that of a plague doctor.

Watched a BBC documentary from 1973 about Bishop’s Light and it took me a solid 5 to 8 minutes to nail down the tone because that style of filmmaking has been parodied absolutely everywhere.

Love to get the “oh hey, that expensive piece of equipment you spent a lot money like 4 years ago? We aren’t supporting it anymore. Here’s a 20% discount code. Toodles, bebé” email.

RIP to Robert Redford. You were a crush for like 3 maybe 4 generations of people.

And for being one of my only 2 exceptions to the blonde men rule.

The other is young William Hurt.

Has anyone talked about how crazy Christmas tree prices are going to be this year? Not only plastic ones, but real ones?

Wildfires, poor growing seasons, and tariffs are going to make things wild.

Tariffs? Yes, some trees from Canada are tariff exempt and some are not.

*Looks at discourse around new Wuthering Heights movie adaptation and sees it is being directed by Emerald Fennell*

Maybe turbo posh people shouldn’t direct movies involving class dynamics?

My take about Hochul endorsing Mamdani is that she’s worked with both Adams and Cuomo and they suck so bad she doesn’t want to do it again.

Also, she’s got 3 more years of having to deal with the Trump admin and doesn’t want to be undermined by anyone who owes Trump favors.

I really appreciate the type of writer who leads with their credentials in The Atlantic.

It lets me know that I won’t miss out anything when I block them.
