Went down the rabbithole of Western PA beers, and the cans, seems like a good time to share the story of my people.

Miss Olde Frothingslosh is part of Western PA lore, which is some very unique lore indeed! Yinz might just have to live there to understand. (Not part of my upbringing, but I have relatives galore in W PA/WV/OH

Brewster takes flight 🫡 Soar like an eagle, Bud

The Hold Steady, Built to Spill, Bully & Titus Andronicus on one ticket at The Shed in June, y’all. WTF, I’m going to live music events again.

Interesting in light of Elon’s moon settlement announcement #PhilipKDick

Sounds like a personal problem, Bluesky 😬

When I worked for Reason magazine during Trump's rise to power in 2016, I was explicitly forbidden by the editor in chief from writing about Trump's racism, or the violence and racism at his rallies. It was a "sideshow," I was told.

Kill Bill has me in the mood for more revenge sagas, and since I have this favorite already sitting out…

Closer yet I approach you, What thought you have of me now, I had as much of you—I laid in my stores in advance, I consider’d long and seriously of you before you were born.

It might be time to dig my copy of Cosmicomics up and give it another read.

My copy of Calvino’s Cosmicomics which I acquired around the age of 23, read, and have been carting around since, and The Complete Cosmicomics, which I’m reading now, pushing 60. The world changes, we change with it, but we also somehow stay the same: true of me reading it, also, the story of Qfwfq

There's a Patrick Macnee doll, and here's a review of it: www.ultimatesoldier.net/scrapbook/gl...

Would you like to hear about my strange relationship with this TV show? Well, if you read this thread, you’re going to hear about it anyway. The show being House, starring Hugh Laurie, which ran on Fox from 2004 to 2012.

Anyone have any idea on what percentage of Bsky reply folks are familiar with The Onion?

🪦🤞🏻

I thought I’d sworn off festivals, but the top of this ticket has my attention. Something about being a 15 minute walk from the venue is making the stuff that have made Old & Tired Me more receptive to this one

This is bullshit

If the prospect of data center construction accelerating way past our resource capacity (don’t get me started on actual need) is breaking your brain, how about millions of data centers in low earth orbit? If “unhinged” sounds overly emotive, trust me, the Op Ed writer is using great restraint.

The hotel alarm goes off at 6 am, preset to play the local oldies station; suddenly Sonny & Cher’s “I Got You Babe” fills the room. Jeb groggily opens his eyes, recalls that, once again, he has a campaign speech scheduled later that day. He proceeds to smash the clock radio.

My Letterboxd review of Quatermass and the Pit

Is it more embarrassing to be caught visiting pedophile island or to be caught begging to visit pedophile island and the head pedophile seems hesitant about it.

God loves a terrier RIP Catherine O’Hara

Catherine O’Hara and Terri Garr are two of several women tormenting Griffin Dunne in After Hours, I think this is due for a rewatch

I don’t like beets, Mother 😢 RIP Catherine O’Hara

Some of us have to be on LinkedIn. The feed sucks, but one perk is, every time I see an Adobe ad, the comments are a field day. Left wingers, right wingers, normies with desk jobs, “creatives,” everyone is in there dragging Adobe. Hating Adobe seems to be one of the few things uniting this country.

Hey, how come y’all never told me about David Ramirez? And if you didn’t because nobody told you, well now I’m telling ya.

Making your way in the world today takes everything you got…

Whatever streaming service you have, get on it and play it. Drive the numbers up. In the event it becomes the #1 song, it’ll make a certain purple-bruised POS crazy

Fuck yeah, Bruce

My favorite thing about The Onion reply people is how they recycle their replies ♻️

On December 12, Rob Schneider was asked to remove himself from his place of residence; that request came from his wife. Deep down, he knew she was right, but he also knew that some day he would return to her. With nowhere else to go, he appeared at the home of his friend, Adam Carolla.

What a nice version of Sweet Jane from Two Nice Girls. (With some Joan Armatrading mixed in.)

My Letterboxd review of Todd Haynes’ Safe boxd.it/cQTdP1

Real fans will get this one in one try Framed #1417 🎥 🟩 ⬛ ⬛ ⬛ ⬛ ⬛ framed.wtf

I was the staff projectionist at the art history department of a prestigious liberal arts college, a long, long time ago. There was an intro class to the full history of art, 2 semesters, every period covered by a different specialist. Italian Renaissance guy did his thing for 3 or so classes.

That Hamnet review from Respected Reviewer was positively shrill, and not much else. “I’m a Letterbox’der logging 3 films a day, I had a negative experience, therefore the movie is bad” shrill.
