The #1 movie when you were 10 years old is how your 2026 is going to go... Yeah, that sounds about right.

Clifford (1994, dir. Flaherty)

This isn’t even all of the AIDS quilt. It was so long they didn’t have room to display it all. Reagan flat out fucking murdered queer people

Just watched Anthony Geary as the evil nephew in the Fat Boys' "Disorderlies" (with Ralph Bellamy!) and he was a weasely delight, but I think I'll always remember him like this... youtu.be/B7vwi2nifuA?...

Have a Cramps Christmas everyone! From my hometown Akron, Ohio, btw.

Latest in the music writing series I do with my daughter Lucy. This time around we tackle on of my fav Teenage Fanclub songs. I have a lot of favorites, but this one's always near the top of the list. ALSO DISCUSSED: What long strange year it has been. #music #musicsky #powerpop

It's a great show, with a fantastic cast including Hope Lange and Fannie Flagg; oddly enough I have a prop award from Dick's office hanging in my studio.

It starts with knowing the truth. Don’t allow yourselves to be gaslit into believing this is a real question.

Hey, I know time’s are tough, so it’s all there for free, but if you’re looking to spend a few dollars on #bandcampfriday, I can always use the support! tedleo.bandcamp.com

Big credit to @oldmcdougall.bsky.social’s story here in @nj.com yesterday, one of the best pieces of music journalism this year in its final month. The missing tape is the hook but this is much more about moms and daughters, art across generations and finding new spaces in older styles.

This is one of those things that I think is quietly important – when these people are talking shit about cities, Portland or Minneapolis or New York or Charlotte or wherever, you have to loudly say, “no, fuck you, you’re lying, that town and its people whip ass and you’re the asshole”

If you liked the covers album and have enjoyed the Dorothy album songs I’ve shared, a great way you can support my work is to buy No 1 in Heaven Starring… on #BandcampFriday I want to raise $30 so I can pay the application fee

I've been to every Mr. Lube location and they were all sold out. Dammit.

The only time any variation on these words should be used in the same sentence is when saying "Hey, everyone! Let's listen to "Macy Day Parade" by recording artist Michael Penn, from the soundtrack to the major motion picture, "Godzilla", because it is cool and good!" www.youtube.com/watch?v=TSxv...

Introduce yourself with 5 concerts you've been to Mel Torme/Mudhoney/Ramones (all one bill!) U2/BB King (same!) Mills Brothers Leonard Cohen Janelle Monae

Wrote a little in my newsletter about the 6 month anniversary of my book coming out, and my struggle to learn how to celebrate myself www.anxietyshark.ca/learning-to-...

Seymour Stein told me I had one of the greatest voices he'd ever heard. And then immediately signed me to Sire Records.

A movie that takes place where you're from (two, in this case...)

@aimeemann.bsky.social's beautiful cover of "Rainy Days and Mondays" may be from the soundtrack to The Chair Company, but it is what happens when you let @programme4.tv into your heart. Also, it is raining in LA, I am strung out from the world—not me weepy in a cafe. www.youtube.com/watch?v=c1Ry...

Rebecca Heineman is a legend. If you’re playing video games right now then the work she has done has impacted you.

Popeye, no contest. Though I love Garp and Moscow on the Hudson and Aladdin and Toys and whatnot.

If you see this, post an album cover with a motor vehicle on it.

Stone. Cold. Knotts.

Oh, that's seriously good.

Haven't felt this in a while and I'm here for it

Honey, I've got that hangry murder headache again, could you bring me some Snufferin?

If the game hits 2am Eastern the score is reset to an hour before and everyone has to repeat exactly what they did to preserve the space time continuum, thems the rules

This is spectacular news & the book is an absolute must read.

In addition to his work on Star Trek, Ralph Senesky directed hundreds of other episodes including The Fugitive, The Wild Wild West, Mission Impossible, The Twilight Zone, Naked City, Mannix, The Partridge Family, Night Gallery, Planet of the Apes, James at 15 & so many more. What a career. RIP sir.

Any shares of this much appreciated! When my ex-publishers collapsed, taking over £20,000 of my earnings with them into the void, all my books suffered but none more than 1983. This is me trying to repair that. It’s about: Childhood Education Aliens Alpacas The East Midlands The old future we lost

@danhaugen.bsky.social killed it with this Halloween costume.
