It’s 53 degrees outside on the first day of autumn and I’m living the dream* *wearing an oversized vintage flannel-lined L.L.Bean denim shirt over a turtleneck

The only way I’m going to “treat” my autistic kid is with love and respect. Stupid motherfuckers.

Happy Birthday to Stephen King 🩸

When life gives you half a bunch of bananas you never got around to eating and are starting to look a little bit less than ideal

So close.

It’s easy to forget, but important to remember, that we also have a responsibility to wring the goodness out of life.

Ahh, nothing like the deep and abiding pleasure of deleting a post that’s broken containment.

An oldie, but still a pretty-goodie.

Pretty incredible that two of the coolest, most incandescently beautiful, humans to ever draw breath, who could have coasted by on those things for eternity, instead left behind deep legacies of service and advocacy and goodness.

Oops, I Did It Again* *doodled on the walls

The Robert McGinnis one sheet for Barefoot in the Park

if you’ve already seen The Sting, Butch Cassidy, 3 Days of Condor and All the President’s Men, then pop on Barefoot in the Park. underseen, romantic, very funny.

Godfuckingdamn it.

Did you know that you can go to Home Depot, spend $15 on a quart of paint, and make your living room cool as hell in an afternoon?

I accidentally fell asleep on the couch for 20 minutes and now I have no idea what year it is.

Happy release day to the wonderful @emmaswiftsings.bsky.social! 💜 Stream the album and then give her all your money: emmaswift-com.myshopify.com/products/emm...

🎃 Here it is, this year’s list of spooky options! 10 spots, $175 each, first come first served! (I *may* be open to a suggestion, but I’d love to stick to what’s here.) DM me to claim your film! 🎃

I'm thinking of opening a much more limited (8-10) round of little spooky season drawings for this year. Raise your hand if you'd be interested!

This sweatshirt is somehow 25 years old. I, somehow, am not.

That birthday note is some real Ben and Jerry Horne at One Eyed Jack’s shit.

A great thing about the internet is that a good-natured joke post like this can lead to the, holy shit duh realization that conmen are one of the strongest through lines in Wes’ filmography, reaffirming that in so many ways, the artifice really is the point.

Did anyone actually watch the Oasis shows they went to, or did they just make sure they got good video?

Typed "New England Autumn" into the pinterest search bar just to feel something.

I have to have my entire house purged/organized/cleaned in just a couple of weeks, and so far that’s mainly consisted of opening closets, saying “oh fuck,” and closing them again.

I need to start culling my vintage accessories collection (purses, hats, scarves, jewelry, et al)- any fellow old stuff fanatics interested in me posting my wares?

Leaving this here for one very important reason: @seantroversy.bsky.social and I look great.

New today over at @bwdr.bsky.social, a little ode to Jonathan Demme’s glorious anti-rom com SOMETHING WILD.

I went thrifting for jeans because the situation is dire, and though I didn’t find any, I did find a $2,000 Etro gown for $12, so on balance, it was worth the trip.

It’s time.

60 degrees on September 1st feels like this.

Like a good dad I’m on my way to Home Depot at 7am on Labor Day.

It’s about time that nutrition labels reflect the fact that pints of ice cream and boxes of mac and cheese are single serving.

Somebody in Wilco must have been listening to a lot of Pavement when they made YHFT, because the guitar riff from War on War is just the riff from Box Elder.

One more little push!
