The thing that struck me while watching Best In Show last night, is if you took a total neophyte who had never heard of or seen any of these actors, you could almost certainly convince them it's a real doc pretty much until Fred Willard shows up

What O'Hara and Levy brought to these characters, in particular, just floors me. They're only one of three plot threads in A Mighty Wind, but the unspoken yearning, this love that's more beautiful for being lost... they're devastatingly funny, but also just devastating.

Possibly in Michigan (1983). www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gbzg...

This is so well written. 💔

Catherine O’Hara didn’t steal scenes she just showed up and ownership automatically defaulted to her

The way she mouths his lines as he's saying them in a perfectly community theater way is chef kiss.

"I hope and pray to leave this world too someday and to have a place near God as near as any other soul with the exception of John Candy." Catherine O'Hara's eulogy for John Candy just hits harder today. www.youtube.com/watch?v=rKHK...

@theisb.bsky.social @wellgoshacs.bsky.social Thank you both for sharing what a good girl Biscuit was with the rest of us. She was so well loved by you guys that a whole lot of people she never met loved her too.

I'm not okay with a world that doesn't have Catherine O'Hara in it. I have always believed there's a very good chance she's the funniest performer in history. Like, ever.

Another piece for the Made You Look comic art show. I thought it might be interesting to display something of my process, so I did this succession of Elvis poses, each at a different stage of the painting process by which I do Makeshift Man pages (and all my other watercolor work, for that matter.)

ARE YOU SCARED OF A FUCKING WHISTLE DAWG

I’m ok. I’m a survivor so this small agitator isn’t going to intimidate me from doing my work. I don’t let bullies win. Grateful to my incredible constituents who rallied behind me. Minnesota strong.

Rubbing my hands desperately over the tiny spark that is Gallego referring to Miller as "that creep" and hoping we can stoke that fire back into calling them all weird again.

Sen. Gallego receives tonight’s “Let Him Cook” Award. This is his first win and first nomination.

The Coen Brothers taught me to hope that when a man is told "my patience is at an end" it might be shortly followed by said man trying and failing pathetically to escape through a window in his underpants.

If you're not in Minnesota and curious how to help, this is a week old but is well organized, includes multiple easy-to-understand bullet points, and seems like a good place to start: www.reddit.com/r/minnesota/...

Still very relevant!

If you don't mind, if I could leave this here - it's a wonderful resource and the admins just added a page where people can leave a note of encouragement or support after making a donation and reading the testimonials. We need those today. www.standwithminnesota.com

As volunteer, can personally vouch for this. We have a lot of knowledge in the Depot and anything given goes toward efficiently getting bulk supplies and food into the hands that need it. We are volunteer- and donation-run. There's no CEO, no advertising dollars. Just people helping people.

Listening to this song at least once per day is doing so much mental health heavy lifting for me

I was at work and checked my phone to see a message from @franzferdinand2.bsky.social that just said "How are you guys holding up?" and I immediately knew Lynch was gone. I had no reason to know that other than that being the only thing I could think of that would illicit that particular check-in.

February 7th at Subspace gallery in Tucson, a one-night-only showcase of original comic art by myself and a motley crew of other Arizona comic artists! Everyone who attends receives a free raffle ticket for fabulous prizes! Hope to see you there!

Great advice for the present moment too.

Scott Adams dying at 68 rather than 69 is the perfect capstone to a life of being almost — but not quite — funny

hi! i'm co-founding a new gaming website with my former polygon colleague @zoehhannah.com. it's called mothership.blog. i made it for someone like me... the kind of website i always wished we had in our space. watch the video to learn more :D

A friend of mine teaches at Cristo Rey and one of her students’ fathers was disappeared by ICE on his way to work. The family’s set up a GoFundMe for both legal fees and family support.

they returned with ideas of the impossible and new methods for calculating infinity

Literally the most recent Austin Powers movie is older than ICE.

Rest in power to Keith Porter who was murdered by an ICE agent in Los Angeles. It’s terrible that his name is just now being circulated, but now that it is, continue to say his name.

he bites for the users

The VOID 1680 AM Affiliate broadcasts are going twice weekly now! Tonight at 8 PM Central, the DJ Rev. Dr. Gary Jackson returns with completely mundane news and weather, live callers, and tunes from the Tragically Hip, Fleetwood Mac, AC/DC and more. See ya then: bannerless.games/void-wlpx2

First art piece of 2026! It feels important to start the year by doing something really self-indulgent. Just something that'll be fun for me, to kick things off right. I've decided that the energy I really need right now is that of the Flash villain, Captain Cold.

Continuing my tradition of many years of doing a new painting of David Bowie for the day of his birthday. This year, a piece inspired by the iconic cover photo for his 1973 album, "Aladdin Sane."

i know we're all busy but i just overheard a plumber say "parlez-vous français ? non ? you motherfuckers don't even speak french, do you" to a pair of french bulldogs

a poem that came spilling out today.
