This is a wonderful thread about our energy future. Long read; worth it! (I get so irritated about energy debates that just brush off climate change; I really thought we were beyond that.)

Patti LaBelle sings at a Christmas concert in this Hallmark movie and they really missed the mark by not having her repeatedly ask, “Where my background singers?”

It’s really quite impressive how Threads continues to provide, on a daily basis, a constant stream of “controversial” and “fight me” opinions that are both dumb and wrong. I’m glad those people have this outlet.

THREE DAYS OF THE CONDOR is a Christmas movie

🎄 👊 💥

NOW MERRY CHRISTMAS AND QUIT COMPLAINING

“We must be increasingly on the alert to prevent our enemies from taking over other ballroom space, in order to dance more prodigiously than we do. Thus, knocking us out of these superior numbers when we party! Mr. President, we must not allow a ballroom gap!”

I found this from David Letterman's show, with John Cusack and Daphne Zuniga of THE SURE THING in the audience. youtu.be/S9UKlgvFnFI

If you want to celebrate the life of Rob Reiner tonight and you haven't seen it, the documentary about his best friend, ALBERT BROOKS: DEFENDING MY LIFE, is as much about Brooks as it is Reiner's love for his lifelong best friend. As fall down hilarious as it is sweet & touching. It's a must see.

Shocked and horrified at the news about Rob Reiner and his wife Michele Singer. What a tragedy.

@tvmojoe.bsky.social An episode of Mrs. Columbo about housewife-hookers, guest-starring Ted Danson??? youtu.be/RwcyAH5ECy0?...

Oh, look, it’s CBS: The 700 Club. 🙏🏼

I never miss an opportunity to tell New Yorkers that the DVD section of the Library of the Performing Arts at Lincoln Center has a better selection than any video store I've been in aside from Mondo Kim's

“Okay, Mister President. Did you want me to tell my readers their premiums *aren’t* going up or that it’s great that they are?”

I suspect Nuzzi’s reading of her own text would have been improved through the copious consumption of scotch, neat. And perhaps 12 packs of American Spirit Dark Green.

@moryan.bsky.social 1200 copies of Canto? So, basically she printed a zine? 🤔

He really cracked the code that you just state your crimes out loud, without an ounce of shame or embarrassment, and there are no repercussions. Guilt is for suckers.

The argument “Dems gotta be moderate, cuz it’s what The People want” drives me nuts. True, the vast swath of voters aren’t wildly liberal. But if you look at the specifics of their preferences, it’s wildly inconsistent.

For example, the Lord Peter Wimsey series with Ian Carmichael isn’t streaming anywhere, but my library has the DVD set.

Absolutely! If a movie I want to see isn’t streaming, first thing I do is check to see if the library has a DVD. (Also, my library gives free access to Kanopy and Hoopla.)

A little girl?!? She’s 32!!! 😖

Movie you’ve watched more than six times with a gif.

Here's my boutique bluray cover for The Star Wars Holiday Special

Man, I know Lindsey Buckingham is a full-on jackass, but TUSK is a great sounding album.

People disrespecting her in the comments… 😐 Obvs, it should be “The Gothika actress…”

@anamariecox.bsky.social I was wondering if you caught Tim Miller’s interview with ON, because the last 15-ish minutes are entirely focused on writing process and it seemed like your jam.

@ironspike.bsky.social A great discussion on the strategy of giving cash. www.ms.now/msnbc-podcas...

This great thread captures one of my biggest pet peeves, the myth that Rosa Parks was this sweet lady who one random day was too tired to move. America’s classrooms are filled with children’s books spreading this story. (Also, b.s. portrayals of the First Thanksgiving, but that’s for another day.)

Imma say I don’t need an MRI to make a diagnosis. 👨‍⚕️

Please send good vibes and/or prayers to my buddy Nathan Rabin, who's in the hospital recovering after a car accident Thanksgiving evening. He needs to stop lounging around & get back to promoting his new book THE FRACTURED MIRROR. You should order it right now! www.nathanrabin.com/store/the-fr...

@luxxury.bsky.social Oh, duh. You plugged the radio show at the end of the D’Angelo episode (which I Judy finished listening to). Also, bless you for playing “Gidget Goes to Hell.” 💜

@luxxury.bsky.social What is this on my radio? Why have I never heard you promote this?!?

Recently pulled out all my horror disks. I think I need a few more…

Walter R. Brooks’ Freddy the Pig book series.

Today in 1988 Mystery Science Theater 3000 premiered on KTMA in St. Paul Minnesota. #MST3K

What’s funny is that if you were a #inners/#WITHpod sicko like I am, you’d know that’s one of Chris’ standard phrases. 😁

@gustavoarellano.bsky.social Did you see that Memo Torres was on with Chris Hayes this week? youtu.be/7H4aYsxnH9M

NY-12 candidate Jami Floyd: “What's happened is [the Democratic] Party has moved from center to far left – and I’m left standing at the center. At the moderate point.”

It’s always a pleasure when there’s Porto’s at work.

After a full year of work, this book is out! Cooking in Maximum Security, compiled by Matteo Guidi, is our latest Half Letter Press book and it's beautiful. How do people in Italian prisons cook? This book will show you their recipes and tools used to make them. halfletterpress.com/cooking-in-m...

“The Aristotelian concept of eudemonia has signed with WME, with the intention of creating partnerships with key influencers…”

The MySpace page is messing with my brain.

@luxxury.bsky.social Propaganda episode! www.spin.com/2025/11/abba...

One of the great mysteries of modern existence is why the phrases “sorry not sorry” and “I said what I said” are such flawless indicators of fallibility. 🤔

Looks on? Is that what he’s doing? Is he even looking? 🤔
