I love how devoted Margaret Rutherford and her husband, Stringer Davis, were to each other. She made sure her husband appeared with her in all the Miss Marple films. Currently watching MURDER MOST FOUL. #TCMParty

He is NOT supposed to be up there!

VIN-KEL, not Winkle! #TCMParty #TheThingMan

Wait!! Isn't Sergeant Paine M from the James Bond movies? #TCMParty #TheThinMan

The music of the zither as the soundtrack is such an interesting choice. #TheThinMan #TCMParty

I've never watched THE THIRD MAN so here I am! #TCMParty #TheThirdMan

I watched MURDER, SHE SAID for the first time today and now I immediately need to watch Margaret Rutherford's other Agatha Christie movies which are conveniently on demand on @tcmtv.bsky.social right now. What a delight! #TCMParty

It’s raining today so Blitz wore his new raincoat!

Ladies and gentlemen... the weekend. (also: you are important and are not alone 🧡)

😂😂😂

We are all Blitz today.

ICE was created post 9/11 to combat terrorist threats. If they aren't combatting the number one terror threat to America - Domestic Violent Extremism and white supremacists - then they don't need to exist as an agency.

The best way to live with a man is to not. (I love most men but I can’t live with any of y’all. 😘)

Give a cat a box…

MRI results are back and all is well. Though I'd be lying if I wasn't thinking this...

Every time I watch this movie, I want to take Carrie's grown kids and just smack 'em upside the head for acting like toddlers. #AllThatHeavenAllows #TCMParty

I have a LuLu on my lap.

DO NOT JUDGE ME for watching ALL THAT HEAVEN ALLOWS once again. I had a very hard day. MRI on my head/brain, a stressful day at work, and then having to shell out way too much $$ to fix my car. So. I shall indulge in this autumn Technicolor delight. #TCMParty

Just voted for the first time as a citizen of Virginia! #Vote

If you were concerned about Kimmel, here's another for you… Journalist Mario Guevara has been detained for 100+ days, ironically arrested as he reported on a "No Kings" protest. The Trump-Vance admin just issued an order of final removal, to send him to El Salvador—where he fled from 21 years ago.

Why are MRI machines SO LOUD? Had to have a scan of my head/brain today for my headaches. At least it's done, and I didn't freak out.

Accurate.

OMG! The actress who played Princess Dahla in THE PINK PANTHER, Claudia Cardinale, died today. She was 87. Just an incredibly beautiful woman. #TCMParty

Since I missed watching THE PINK PANTHER last night, I'm watching it now! #TCMParty

He is now fully charged. #Cats

My daughter is out thrift shopping and just sent this to me. #WritingCommunity

Me living in the U.S. right now:

Please join me in buying cheap clothing from the local thrift store and then depositing piles of it around your neighborhood on Rapture morning.

Saying goodbye to summer and hello to autumn with Lizabeth Scott and Barbara Stanwyck in #FilmNoir The Strange Love of Martha Ivers (1946). #FilmNoirFashion 📽️☀️🍂

Over at the Other Place, (Twitter/X), there are people freaking out about Tylenol, and wondering what they can take now that is safe. I cannot believe we are this stupid.

This was a really fun, feel-good movie based on a true story. There are still good people in the world. Keep the faith, everyone!

my mom took tylenol when she was pregnant, which made me super focused on menswear and now i have a million followers on twitter

Food for thought.

DISNEY: "OK, we are putting Jimmy Kimmel back on the air. You can resubscribe now." ME: "I unsubscribed because you immorally bowed to fascism. I'm not going to resubscribe because you immorally bowed to finances."

The Founding Fathers would be aghast at how stupid Americans are when it comes to our rights. Seriously. And they'd be even more aghast at how so many of us bend over backwards to JUSTIFY the government violating those rights for those they don't like or agree with.

Current Mood:

Happy First Day of Autumn!! 🍂 🍁

My handsome Blitz.

My family was hit by the 1980s farm crisis. It was a VERY tough time for us. I remember when Willie Nelson started #FarmAid. I don't know how they decided who got the $$, or if you had to apply for it somehow, or what, but we didn't receive any financial help from them. Glad it's still going though!

I'm taking quite a long time to plan my next novel (gothic histfic set in postwar England). Lots of research. Lots of plotting. I'm curious, fellow writers, do you take time to plan your novel, or do you dive right in? I think I'm somewhere between a plotter and a pantster. You? #WritingCommunity

I already bought a few things today, so I really, really shouldn't buy two more classic movies, right? I need to add THE BLUE DAHLIA and THE BIG HEAT to my collection. #TCMParty

My daughter started wearing a mask at work so men would stop telling her to smile.

Thinking of watching this fantastic film noir tonight: THE BLUE DAHLIA. #filmnoir #TCMParty

Enjoying watching THE HUCKSTERS this afternoon. #TCMParty

Sometimes an introvert just needs to be in a quiet house by themselves. It really recharges our hearts and minds.

I hope her campaign uses this. Because this represents what she'll fight AGAINST.

The quiet dark of night feels endless and rife with possibilities. The mid-afternoon of day is stacked with responsibilities and reality. All of the mystique of the unknown stretches before us in the wee hours.

This has become one of my favorite film noirs. #TCMParty

Okay but WHY?!? #writingcommunity
