You would think that having a large collection of books on Math, that I would be good at math. Far from it; I still take out the calculator to do addition.

Prime roadtrips with friends is when everyone in the back is asleep, the front passenger is reading a book, and the driver is jamming to tunes.

So much false equivalence in media on gerrymandering in Texas vs California & Virginia. California and Virginia maps approved by the voters. That's a huge difference not enough people pointing out

You know I knew that Door Dash woman looked familiar

I recently tried mushroom jerky for the first time, and I gotta say it's not half bad. The texture is actually better than a lot of jerky of the meat variety that I've tried over the years.

After the White House complained about an unflattering photo of Karoline Leavitt, it was removed from AFP and Getty’s systems. This is the photo in question. Please do not repost it. 👇

Back in the day, I had to do a math test to work as a cashier. We should do the same for podcasters.

A tax season reminder that Intuit TurboTax lobbied the government for years to block free public tax-filing. Trump then terminated the free IRS Direct File program established under Biden, just a year after the tax prep giant gave his inauguration fund $1M. Do you see how this works?

If we made the green energy transition this war would be unthinkable and these authoritarians wouldn’t be in power — not in the US, not in Iran, not in Saudi Arabia, not in Russia. Hydrocarbons are killing our freedom and just plain killing us.

Currently in Texas, helping my parents out in their garden. And oh boy, the mosquitos had a feast on my legs.

I thought about grifting with tactical soap, but the target demographic rarely wash their hands or any other part of their body.

People who are cheering on the US and Israel bombing Iran, are the same type of people who get bent out of shape if you park in front of their house.

While predictable at times, Rental Family was absolutely heart warming and at certain moments, genuinely relatable in how they portrayed how people yearn for connection in their own unique ways. #Filmsky

Hey fellow elder/geriatric millennials, how are y'all handling all your nice boxes and packaging?

Late night watch: La stanza del figlio (The Son's Room / 2001) #Filmsky

Anaconda had me cackling the entire film. It was absurd and hilarious, and the cast sold it so well. #Filmsky

Will I ever relocate to the English countryside? Probably not. Have I watched all 26 seasons of Escape to the Country? Yes, yes I have.

BREAKING: WATCH the full 60 Minutes CECOT segment here. This was sent to me anonymously. It appears to be the segment CBS' Bari Weiss killed. www.muellershewrote.com/p/watch-the-...

They released the first trailer! 🔗 youtu.be/iklicVKcoI8 #Filmsky

Thoroughly enjoyed Dust Bunny. Like a mash up of Amelie and Pans Labyrinth, super stylish and fantastic dialogue. youtu.be/lQqmOjPDlWg #Filmsky

When you've been watching IT: Welcome to Derry and have no one to talk about it with. A seriously well executed #horror series; since the very first episode, it's been wild.

This was sublime. youtu.be/Awm_Ca7Fe1o

I'm not someone who likes to accumulate things, but I'm also someone who just packed up 20 boxes filled with my books.

bluesky checked the IP addresses of pro-turkey posters and they're all posting from hungry

Finally watched Train Dreams. Easily one of the best book adaptations I've seen. The novella was great, but the film brought it to life. The pacing & cinematography deliver a thematic gut punch that captures the quiet passage of life & how someone can end up simply drifting through it. #Filmsky

The new series "Last Samurai Standing" is so good. Action choreography, acting, pacing, all just superbly done. Haven't binged a series like that in quite awhile.

Guillermo del Toro's Frankenstein was excellent. A great exploration of the monster and his creation.

The same guy who "doesn’t want to hear about affordability" posted about his new marble bathroom 7 times last week.

bring back maligning racism as the mark of a stupid person. prejudice is the mark of an idiot. if you believe that shit i bet you also don’t wipe your ass

my new mayor getting sexual predators off the streets on day 1 i KNOW thats right

A sneak peek at the cover of next week’s issue, which celebrates Zohran Mamdani’s historic win. #NewYorkerCovers https://newyorkermag.visitlink.me/451hFM

Mamdani: "New York will remain a city of immigrants, a city built by immigrants, powered by immigrants, and as of tonight, led by an immigrant."

Good job New York City!

Here are my picks of four #horror films y'all should watch this Halloween: 🔪 Sleepaway Camp (1983) 🔥 The House of the Devil (2009) 🧛 Thirst (2019) 🎭 Santa Sangre (1989)

That first episode of Welcome to Derry was wild!

Decided to start watching the #Horror series From, and now I have every window covered and locked shut tonight. Worth a watch, but maybe when it's light out. youtu.be/pDHqAj4eJcM

Today’s adventures are out and about the Golden Coast. Coincidentally, this was also the first time we’ve gotten rain in months, which makes perusing used bookstores all the better.

not an exaggeration to say I am WEEPING with laughter at this reply from someone who hadn't seen that Robert Redford died today

Moonchild is always a vibe youtu.be/sBymLe2xdIk

Had to get out of the house today, so naturally I’m spending the day visiting used bookstores all over Southern California.

It’s very telling when someone views hate speech as a matter of opinion.

Got my copy of Katabasis! #booksky

I should probably stop watching horror films late at night, but I was honestly surprised at how entertaining "Clown in a Cornfield" was. 🎬 youtu.be/e69AWLED77w #Filmsky #Horror

This is the best essay ever written on American gun violence www.nybooks.com/online/2012/...

Not surprised they made Denis Johnson's "Train Dreams" into a film; picked up a copy of the book while visiting Sydney years ago & although it was meant to be my book for the trip, I ended up finishing it in a single afternoon. Well worth another read. 🔗 youtu.be/HyRdazbYKgY #Filmsky #BookSky
