Spike Lee at the Knicks game tonight:

Jalen Brunson is just such a scrappy, tough SOB. I love him. #knicks

The new Beck single is real nice. #musicsky www.youtube.com/watch?v=wuCg...

Just looked up the Cubs’ Dansby Swanson, saw his father is named Cooter and suddenly his stupid name makes sense.

Currently DVRing "Shattered Glass," one of my favorite journalism movies, off Starz. Haven't seen it in too long. #filmsky

Watching Strip Law, which for some inexplicable reason a lot of people here seem to like if not love. God, it's bad and stupid.

God, Idiots' Jeopardy! I mean Celebrity Jeopardy! is so easy _and_ bad, quite the mixture.

The Mets' longest losing streak in 22 years, Gary Cohen just said. Ack!

Oh, this made me happy. Was able to download Swimming to Cambodia, which is available almost nowhere. EXCEPT for the Internet Archive. #filmsky archive.org/details/swim...

This clown calls them the Mamdani Mets, says they're woke, calls Mr. Met an anti-Semite. defector.com/jarringly-re...

Random Googling rabbit holes led me to the happy discovery that "Brockmire" is now streaming on Netflix. Last time I checked, it wasn't anywhere I subscribed to.

43 years ago today, the greatest headline in newspaper history:

This baby elephant was the best news story I've seen all day: www.cnn.com/2026/04/15/u...

Steve Gelbs rates the Dodger Dog 1.5 out of 10! Shot across the bow!!! #mets

Wait. People actually thought a documentary about Lorne Michaels was a good idea? And it's really going to be released in theaters? Well OK then.

Neil deGrasse Tyson is such a fucking blowhard. Couldn't they find someone else for their CNN coverage?

Ya know, we've come a long way. I'm old enough to remember when Gayle King and Katy Perry went to space and now here we are circling the moon.

Well, that was a DeGrom-like start, right down to what just happened to cost him the win. And possibly cost them the game. #mets

Yes, fellow commuter, I am judging you by how old your WNYC tote bag is.

In case you were wondering how Artemis got its name: aerospaceamerica.aiaa.org/excerpt-how-...

Whaddya mean you've never seen "The Last Picture Show"?!?!?! Well, it's on TCM tomorrow night at 11:30; set your DVR now so you can remedy that failing. #filmsky

If you see any yellow-capped Coke bottles in your supermarket, jump on them. They are made with real cane sugar because they're kosher for Passover and, according to some, the real stuff tastes better.

It's never too early in the season for a "Fucking Mets," is it?

I'm waiting for some of the right-wing members of my Mets group to get up in arms about this new book:

Way too expensive, but also really tasty.

They say you shouldn't kink-shame, but I think in this case it's OK.

This album is very much not my thing. And yet, I am listening now and quite enjoying it so far. variety.com/2026/music/r...

The Whitney, with posts you might not get if you're not up-to-date on your heist news:

Today's spirit animal: Patty Hearst as Tania

New favorite protest sign:

Saw Madama Butterfly tonight and it was beautiful and it was tragic and fuck you Timothée Chalamet.

Gary, Keith and Ron are back and all is well with my world. #mets

Haha, Paul Skenes, nice 135 ERA ya got there!

This is _all_ of the collected Peanuts stuff, plus more! What a deal!

115 years ago today, the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory fire. 146 garment workers dead, 123 of them women. In about 18 minutes. Remember them.

March 25, birthday of the great Flannery O'Connor. #booksky

I don’t much like this Jamie guy on Jeopardy!, and I can’t quite put my finger on why. But, man, he is awfully good.

But of course there exists on the Internet a Flannery O'Coonor soundboard. (Gearing up for her birthday tomorrow). #booksky www.bettermagazine.org/001/oconnors...

Listening to the Original Broadway Cast Recording of Two Strangers (Carry A Cake Across New York), which just came out. It's such a good show; I hope it cleans up at the Tonys.

"The Matrix" opened on this day in 1999. I remember being in the theater and my friend and I looked at each other literally slackjawed after this opening. #filmsky www.youtube.com/watch?v=bRih...

How much badass can you fit into one photograph? Akira Kurosawa and Toshiro Mifune at the Venice Film Festival in 1960. Happy would-have-been birthday today to Kurosawa. #filmsky

Haha, eat shit, Florida.

Holy shit, what an ending to that St. John’s-Kansas game. Now they’re on to face the evil Duke.

Spring has sprung The birds has biz I wonder where The flowers is In memory of my mom, who always said that.

Hofstra's coach is named Speedy Claxton, for reals, and so I'm rooting for them in March Madness. After St. John's, that is.

Oh, those poor White House ketchup bottles.

Because every day is a good day to listen to some Joy Division. #musicsky www.youtube.com/watch?v=fhCL...
