oh my god, i’m crushed. catherine o’hara you queen

Catherine O'Hara as Moira Rose was absolute brilliance. www.youtube.com/watch?v=jVoj...

Heater sighting!!

Flash Facts: sounds like @ryannorth.ca has done it again!!

I hope people will listen to what we learned in Minneapolis and take some of the same sense of hope from it that we did.

Happy Alan Alda’s birthday to us all.

Now more than ever before

We used to be a proper country

Don't mind me, just thinking about how Jimmy Carter put solar panels on the White House and then Reagan ripped them off as soon as possible after taking office. What could we have done with starting this if we'd started for real in 1980, one wonders...

And I was never really the same afterwards.

When Vito Scotti is in a #Columbo episode, you know it's going to be good. He's fantastic in "Negative Reaction." He also has a couple of memorable episodes of Gilligan's Island, which I think is the first place I remember seeing him.

One of my fav genre of posts is "I dreamed about this kind of food/dish and so I tried to make it." i.e: king's hand or "the big mamdani"

The history of the New York City Sanitation Department is fascinating. Read more about it! Picking Up: On the Streets and Behind the Trucks with the Sanitation Workers of New York City by Robin Nagle is a great read. bookshop.org/p/books/pick...

Numbly retweeting Bill Kristol because he somehow has more moral courage than 98% of Dem electeds these days

On the #MST3K forever-a-thon, it’s CATALINA CAPER. This was a hard-to-find episode due to rights issues for a long time, so I always enjoy seeing it. I forgot how quickly they throw Little Richard into the film, they don’t even let him get to the island! Never, ever, ever steal anything wet!!

I am in this picture and I don't like it

this ad is so badass and is relevant whether you're in the UK or in the USA

extremely hopeful thread. so much respect & love to Minnesota, showing the way

The Venture Brothers 21 and 24 suiting up to "Mars, Bringer Of War" is so good www.youtube.com/watch?v=qnMG...

Met a friend for coffee this morning and then I had another coffee beverage afterwards. I may have had Too Much Coffee today. It's been a while.

We need That Midwestern Mom in a SINISTER MINNESOTAN sweatshirt immediately.

Remember how much fun that weekend was when we thought It Happened? Have little a taste of it. As a treat.

I would pay cold hard cash for a Pyrex with "suspicious hotdish" embossed on the side

i feel like the viral bus thread resonates because at every step of the way you're like "ok surely this will be resolved shortly, any second now," which seems like what all the passengers are also thinking. then the fact that the situation doesn't resolve and the bus just keeps going is an Allegory

Tom Baker is 92 today

I actually had a discussion about this yesterday. The hate for fanfiction has 4 components: 1) It directly defies capitalism. Capitalism tells us that only things that are profitable are of worth. Most fanfic is free and so people equate free to bad. 🧵 #fanfiction

Dolly Parton is a world treasure and one of my favorite cameos of all time is her appearance in The Orville. www.instagram.com/p/DTsl6SoDrv...

Typing "WHAT'S THE BEST THING YOU GOT" into Bluesky should open a new, premium Bluesky, just like in Achewood when Ray bought Airwolf.

Gary Larson: In my cartoon I invented Cow Tools as a cautionary tale Cows: At long last, we have created the Cow Tools from classic newspaper comic Cow Tools

Happy MLK day, gang! Martin was a Democratic Socialist, anti-imperialist, anti-capitalist, thought white moderates were the bane of Black existence, and died on a trip to support a sanitation workers' strike! Beware his sanitized and sanded-down edit!

Perfectly precedented times were having. Guardian liveblog of Starmer’s press conference and today’s shambolic events. www.theguardian.com/world/live/2...

OK that’s enough doomscrolling for the evening. Maybe I’ll start a second rewatch of Frieren. That feels like the only thing capable of breaking through my anhedonia.

Once again I will ask why the hell we didn't arrest this piece of shit on January 6, 2020. We could have saved so many lives and so much trouble.

DA BEARS

Il Piatto in Portland, OR. Small Italian restaurant set in a house with an excellent menu. Very few seats but a great atmosphere. I still think about their mushroom and polenta appetizer.

It's giving the Others in Pluribus doing a commercial for HDP with little kids instead of John Cena.

Just realized that I didn't have Transmit on this laptop. Rectified the error, found the email with my license key from a ways back, and BANG, ready to go again. Thanks, @panic.com, you're still one of my favorite software companies.

Tonight on the #MST3K Forever-a-thon, it's THE SINISTER URGE by Ed Wood. He really was a singular talent. The dialogue in this film is certainly a choice, too.

Wax — or: The Discovery of Television Among the Bees It's a documentary of sorts. Kinda. Was very popular among a certain set in my college town.

What are people using for hosting these days? I have all these domains that used to work but don't anymore, and I'd like to find a new home for them.

Good summary of “don’t give him what he wants” from relatively comfortable white liberals.

damn what is wrong with me, i am having the hardest time concentrating on work, i lament as i compulsively refresh live feeds of unspeakable horrors

Whose cuisine will reign supreme?! The Chairman of my heart. I'm always throwing out an, "If memory serves..." in his honor.

Yet another "tell me you've never watched an episode of Star Trek without telling me you've never watched an episode of Star Trek" tell from these assholes. But I bet if you ask him about Gabriele D'Annunzio or Carl Schmitt, he'd give you chapter and verse.

Trump taking Machado’s Nobel Prize Putin taking Kraft’s Super Bowl ring

They are raising prices again. They don't pay artists. They stole Wrapped from a Black intern and didn't even credit her. Their CEO invests millions in defense contractors. Tons of AI slop. Payola schemes. Why are you still using Spotify?

GPC: "I don't get you, Tom." Tom: "Nobody does. I'm the wind, baby!"

Once upon a time the Buckeye News Hawk Award prop from WKRP in Cincinnati was for up for auction. Even had I won it, that still wouldn't have made me Less Nessman. Though it would have been a cool thing to have. It's a major award!
