The fact that Epstein used IDENTICAL PHRASES in earlier known writing makes the suicide note less likely IMO. It’s almost too on the nose. Sorry to be all Conspiracy Cate about this but, well…

The funny, almost touching thing about Djokovic. He was never beloved. People always rooted for Federer or Nadal over him. Now they’re both gone and he, by default, finally gets to be the sentimental favorite.

Everything is measurably worse from when I was a kid except for grapes. For some reason, grapes are better now.

Is Joe Scarborough quiet quitting Morning Joe?

Diehard fans will be pleased. And let's leave it at that.

I would very much like to be excluded from this narrative

THE DEVIL WEARS PRADA 2 doesn't pass the sequel test. My review.

Has anyone else ever noticed that Elle Fanning and Claire Danes have the exact same voice?

The guy running this Iran War congressional committee has the worst rug I’ve seen in years.

Your occasional reminder that Valerie Cherish has one of the best marriages on TV.

Every day, I am more convinced that we are going to need to just turn everything off and start again. www.nytimes.com/2026/04/24/b...

I gasped when a certain A+list actress unexpectedly showed up in episode 4 of Margo’s Got Money Troubles.

YESSS!!! STAY THRU THE CREDITS GUYS THATS ALL ILL SAY!!!!

Trying to figure out where there are so many deeply unpleasant, misanthropic shows on right now: Euphoria, Beef S2, Half Man. I feel icky watching them all. Seems to me that what we SHOULD be craving is humanity and decency, a la The Pitt or Project Hail Mary. And yet, we have both...

In honor of John Waters’ 80th birthday, here is behind-the-scenes footage of our photoshoot! youtu.be/84U4HjsWSIY?...

Sometimes you’re glad a film was made simply because it allows a great actor to be great. My review of THE CHRISTOPHERS.

Nobody ever has just one pug. It's always at least two pugs. See, also, Basset hounds.

On top of being incompetent, ignorant, and cruel, the people in Trump‘s cabinet are such massive losers. Like the dregs of society.

I'm listening to Belle Burden's STRANGERS on Audible as I walk Gus and my neighbors must think I'm losing it because I keep saying out loud, "Oh my God!"

Rock criticism still so patriarchal. Everyone talking about how Geese has revived indie rock when Wet Leg was right there the whole time.

What a terrible basketball game.

On the eve of his 80th birthday, John Waters shows no signs of slowing down. How has the Pope of Trash turned himself into the Filth Elder? For our April cover story, Editor-in-Chief @maxthegirl.bsky.social decided to go straight to the source to find out.

I’m having a “Will This Make Me an Asshole?” moment. I just started following this woman on Instagram who trains dogs for theater. She wrote, “Marty just got casted as Bruiser in Legally Blonde.” Nails on a freaking chalkboard. Do I tell her? Unfollow her? Get over it?

Saying that a pope is weak on crime is objectively hilarious.

Colman Domingo was so good on SNL. Not only is he an incredibly good actor he is just a charm bomb.

The Swalwell news is really depressing.

Thrilled to share my profile of one of my heroes, John Waters, where I ask the question: How does he remain so cool at 80?

Back in my day, if you went to a rock concert and you wanted to hear an encore, a slow rhythmic clap would make its way through the crowd. I feel like I haven’t heard that in a while. Have people stopped doing that?

I'm in no way defending the Jewish space laser lady, but she really does seem like someone who has been deprogrammed from a cult.

The MdFF is back this week. I reviewed three titles, including a documentary on the groundbreaking queer filmmaker Barbara Hammer.

This guy is everyone’s dealer on Instagram

I dropped “indefatigable” on live TV today. Living dangerously.

Rep. Madeleine Dean: Trump is going to be remembered for rubble, from the East Wing to the Middle East. 🔥🔥🔥

"The answer is simple: It’s to center Charlie’s dilemma, his pain, his confusion. I knew without even checking that the film had been written by a man"

My review of THE DRAMA, where I compare it to TÁR. (Except, well, TÁR is good.) www.baltimoremagazine.com/section/arts...

Every headline about Trump is about war and rage and chaos. And then there’s this:

I’m shocked shocked SHOCKED that Trump wouldn’t be loyal to someone who was so slavishly loyal to him.

⬅️ Has never spelled desiccated right on the first try.

He will be a featured speaker at next year’s CPAC

I cannot lie: It’s worth it to still have Twitter if only for when Duke loses in historically catastrophic fashion.

I enjoyed PROJECT HAIL MARY well enough—Ryan Gosling’s charisma could power galaxies. But Rocky was so cutesy. I felt like it couldn’t decide if it wanted to be a children’s film or a film for grownups. Did the book have this problem?

Anyone else remember Miles Simon? Swaggiest college basketball player ever.

"The Verizon lady!" Me, on the way home from PROJECT HAIL MARY. (It was bugging me.)

I’m just gonna say it. Drag Race relies too much on lip synching. I understand that that’s its whole “deal.” But the wrong queen went home tonight because she couldn’t do a backflip.

Everyone is happy that Punch the monkey has a girlfriend, meanwhile the stuffed orangutan is going through some Toy Story shit.

If anyone encounters this poster in the wild could you buy it for me? I’m good for it, I promise!

I can smell the Axe Body Spray from Baltimore

I just realized Valerie Cherish is Kathy Lee Gifford.
