in the Humorism newsletter, I wrote a brief history of Louis CK's non-apologies: www.humorism.xyz/a-brief-hist...

if EUPHORIA isn’t a high school show anymore, what is it? after watching nearly half of season 3, I’m entertained but still don’t really know: variety.com/2026/tv/revi...

3 stars is good actually

Oh no, I've got ennui

Ya’ll haven’t been talking enough about Monét X Change being on #TheTraitorsUS for my liking

Just a late night reminder that if you’re getting into the films of Mira Nair, she’s one of the interview subjects of my book CINEMA HER WAY, which is still in stores now and would make a great Christmas gift. 🎁 www.rizzoliusa.com/book/9780847...

“Tell your children who the cowards were.”

For @cambridgeday.com I had the honor of speaking with filmmaker Steve McQueen (!!!!) about his upcoming Harvard Lecture and the fifth anniversary of SMALL AXE!

When I interviewed her for my book Gillian Armstrong told me that the studio was interfering when they were maybe a day behind schedule filming MRS. SOFFEL and Diane Keaton called the studio and said “Leave Gil alone. She’s doing a great job.” And the studio left her alone the rest of the shoot.

Terribly sad news about one of the greats. Diane Keaton has died at 79. people.com/diane-keaton...

One of these rich dudes invested in a food company with all proceeds going to kids in need. The other started Sundance Institute, boosting the lives of countless artists. Hey modern rich dudes, don't be a typical greedy AI crypto-prick, be like these two.

This is probably the single worst day and single most gobsmackingly stupid decision in the history of Big Brother. It would have been regardless of who the twist took out. But it’s especially so because it was her. #BB27

I know we've had shit comedies since 2015 up until The Naked Gun so the average is shot, but Ryan Gosling is one of the funniest actors alive

feeling so jealous of people who don’t know who kelley jorgenson is. I want that peace #bb27

I love this movie, and it's bittersweet for the glimpse at all the great character actor performances Bruce Willis should have been able to give.
