How am I supposed to do any work today when there are so many beautiful Sam Neill stories to read?

RIP to the incomparable Sam Neill

Sam Neill on tackling depression and imposter syndrome when you’re between jobs.

Amazing to look at the dates this was posted or reposted and try to remember who may have died on a given date to cause a resurgence. It’s like… social media archaeology

What does Joey Chestnut do from August to June every year?

This is really funny because my wife has checked out of social media while we’re on vacation (in Maine!) and I had to tell her and couldn’t think of anything to say so I said “Graham Platner is dead” which she took literally before I could explain further. Whoops!

game recognize game.

It is baffling to me that “sensible” conservatives can putter around support for Trump and excuse this or that insane thing when the guy is directly responsible for the end of the current, very successful, global order of the past 80 years.

Spoke to Mitch McConnell and he told me Platner wants him as Maine’s senate candidate

“Guys, I know a guy who would be great. His only tattoo isn’t finished but it’s just a maze!”

One frustrating thing about the whole GP debacle is that the many men who supported him through a sea of red flags will learn nothing from their mistakes and will make the same mistakes again because they view politics as a game instead of something to invest in

new metaphor just dropped

One frustrating thing about influencers is they have to keep churning up content simply for the sake of content and I think that robs both them and their audience of thoughtfulness and curiosity.

The pope hearing this shit:

At least amending the constitution would be the lawful approach instead of whatever the fuck Alito is doing

Really a shame too because Offkey Destiny’s Child is my favorite musical act.

Ezra Klein gearing up to explain how SCOTUS is ignoring the constitution the right way

You’d think there’d be an obvious frontrunner for “Biggest piece of shit on the Supreme Court” but it’s actually a really tight race!

I think what’s deeply frustrating and dangerous about stuff like this is non-politics people won’t see that it’s an earthquake because it’s difficult to draw the line of how it impacts them, even as it further erodes the stability of how our government functions.

I have to renew next year and I really don’t want to with this bullshit

What do you think the decline in smoking did to air freshener sales?

imagining a grizzled hardboiled detective saying this while gripping some guy's lapels at a shady bar

Austin Powers 4 retreading some old ground, I guess.

[yoga class] *hiding my lightsaber* misinformed I was

Watched Crimson Tide last night. What a perfect dad movie. Hackman was such a good bully and Denzel is really restrained the whole film. Last submarine film to revisit is Das Boot!

The crazy thing is that for most of my life I would go ten, fifteen, sometimes even thirty minutes at a time without thinking about the Reflecting Pool.

I'm not sure I've ever seen a single sentence go downhill this far and this fast

Knowing absolutely nothing about British politics, I believe Andy Burnham will have a long tenure as PM, simply because his name sounds like he’d be a good standup comedian

Disclosure Day was not for me even tho Spielberg continues to have such an incredible eye. One irk is that the movie very briefly toys with a really interesting idea and then just throws it away and moves on!

Greetings from Washington DC

Jurassic Park is, IMO, a perfect adaptation. Also great is Edge of Tomorrow, which was based on All You Need is Kill. Annihilation is a great adaptation because it knows it can’t capture the book so instead captures the _feel_ of the book and that is essential!

Last night I finished Dolly Alderton’s Good Material and it was just delightful. Already a lovely read but then the last quarter hooked me in and I stayed up too late finishing it! #📚💙

I love this. Unmute.

PRESIDENT’S PHYSICIAN: He’ll probably be out cold for a while; this last episode of diarrhea was quite painful for him. STEPHEN MILLER: Hm. Is there any chance we can get him to say something incredibly racist at 3pm? PHYSICIAN: (pulling out a syringe filled w/ liquid Adderall) I love what I do.

Not sure Hollywood is ready to tell the story of the poop knife but I am 100% down for a @shittymorph biopic

May have possibly bitten off more than I can chew. Caro Summer!

There was an entire Netflix reality show about autistic people falling in love what is this shit?

another day, another opportunity to consider getting knuckle tats that read T O B Y H U S S

Just discovered that Seth McEvoy’s Not Quite Human series is available on archive.org! Very excited to dive back into these books.

I know people are excited Patel might be let go but there are still women in Trump’s cabinet he hasn’t fired! Then again, Patel is not white. Anything can happen in this administration!

Honestly looks like the Colonel is throwing up his lobster arms.

Legally, It cannot happen when he’s overseas but I will of course welcome any opportunity to celebrate alongside our European allies.

It seems, as I read the situation, that the WH decided not to disclose MOU terms tonight to avoid criticism spoiling UFC event; so Iran is disclosing phony terms that are even worse; which is infuriating WH folks, who want to respond; but they can’t get permission b/c principals are at the UFC thing

My dude looking like someone’s Mii brought into reality

Sea of Rust is such a delightfully fun read!

Homeland S3 got real bad but they came back hard in S4 and S5. Then S6 and 7 (and 8???) tried to guess Clinton would win and would be exactly as republicans feared and the show sped away from the zeitgeist as fast as it could.

What you wish you could be doing in New York right now is what you could be doing when It happens. HAVE A PLAN.
