there are so many more important things happening but I believe my inspired-by-a-true-story book about a teen model whose life changes when a man in power decides she should be his should be outselling Olivia Nuzzi’s book. if you agree, it makes a great gift

Sets for Batman Returns were kept very cold for the comfort of the real-life penguins involved. This meant that cast/crew repeatedly got sick during filming. The real-life penguins though would often fall in love with their animatronic counterparts or feel so settled that they began mating.

one of favorite things in this dumb world is in a 1982 concert recorded at the Capitol Theatre, Warren Zevon dedicates "Absolutely Like a Martyr" to "the man who makes the world's greatest movies - to Marty Scorsese with love"

we lost my dad suddenly on Thursday. gonna have to revise this poem because the saddest thing I know has changed - it's not that my dad was once not my dad, but that he was, and I will miss him always. everyone crank up the live version of "sweet jane" for Chris.

Final Girl Slumber Party, by Meghan Phillips — Barrelhouse

There's just a few days left and we've already raised a combined $410 for the ACLU! I'm planning to donate on behalf of all of us -- any ideas for a good collective name? The Writing Weirdos?

It’s day 2 of the Fall fund drive. Thank you for your support. As you are aware, a rescission package eliminating all funding for the Corporation for Public Broadcasting was passed by Congress. Federal support was important but your support is crucial.
