I got so mad at the opening quote title card in 500 Days of Summer that in retrospect I really should’ve left right then. Was still mad walking out at the end, as you can’t really recover from that level of anger

I was talking to friends yesterday who had never heard of Gold Zone so let me say as a public service: Gold Zone RULES, check it out on peacock

Watch this, it's astonishing.

Heck yeah, Fort Worth! www.youtube.com/watch?v=MLTl...

Not ME dealing with emotions from 2020 I never had time to process while overhearing my kid doing school over zoom.

Yes!!!

Books don't tell readers who they personally are or who they are supposed to be. They do show readers a variety of characters. Implicit in that is this: "Here are some ways of being." Kids books aren't altering your kid to be someone new. They are simply showing them parts of humanity.

“When I speak about making our city more affordable, my vision is not limited to the homes that we live in or the child care that we’re making universal — it’s also a vision where we make it possible for working people to afford lives of joy, of art, of rest, of expression.”

Impeach, convict and remove. I don't know what Congress is there for otherwise.

"its not clear what kind of move I was trying to do" is one of my all time favorite tweets, but as a public service I share this tumblr collection of the entire 26-tweet reply chain it was part of (courtesy of haywire4) www.tumblr.com/haywire4/173...

Yay!!! I get to vote for Brad Lander for Congress!

Check out this auction - so many great donations!

Pan!

These guys are not good at television, but they're so much more fun to watch than the professionals.

Halloween voted for @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social! Hooray!!

One thing that all 3 of these shows have in common (besides being v good) is that I sobbed through each of them. I wonder why 🙃

THE EDITORIAL DREAM

This chrome AI button has been driving me crazy but the instructions below worked!!

This video's great and it reminds me a little bit of my favorite Wes Anderson movie www.youtube.com/watch?v=rbO3...

The first 20 minutes of last night’s Task (on HBO) were fantastic - tense, propulsive, very complicated but you never get lost or confused, and also it managed to pay off character moments they’ve been planting for the entire series. The show overall is not top-tier HBO but those 20 minutes were.

They printed first pass.

Good news! Hannah Sawyerr's TRUTH IS is a National Book Award Finalist!!! Aaaaaaaaahhhh!!!! www.nationalbook.org/awards2025/h...

Agreed!!! Sorry if this take is too HOT!

Is it a good thing for an industry when people are constantly inventing new words to describe the terrible side effects of your product?

I've subscribed since day one, but I'm not going to keep paying while Disney keeps Jimmy Kimmel off the air.

I’m re-reading the Book of Dust books in preparation for book 3 coming soon, and I have to say for the millionth time Philip Pullman is an observant, fearless genius. Maybe my favorite writer.

People sometimes ask how I keep up with so much tv and a lot of it has been training from years and years of reading Alan. Worth a subscription!

Hey I’m in this piece! And happy on sale day to BONES AND BERSERKERS!

Heck yes TRUTH IS by Hannah Sawyerr is on the National Book Award long list!!!!!! Congrats to Hannah - so honored to have worked on this with her! www.newyorker.com/books/page-t...

I have a neurotic phobia of poorly managed lines, I love the US Open, and I despise DJT with everything in my soul. This is literal hell to me x.com/benrothenber...

As a potential member of this class, I am highly skeptical that this settlement could be anywhere near high enough. If I get $5 venmoed to me in a year I’ll be pissed!

The wild thing is that if you read Neil Strauss’s The Game (I did, ama) this is the secret point: “pick up” “artistry” is just a bunch of nerd hacks for making yourself a more interesting/less desperate/accidentally better person

Solemnly, at Carmen Sandiego’s funeral: do it Rockapella.

Nothing is inevitable! Go vote tomorrow, and don't rank Cuomo. (There's no voting today)

I’ve been meaning to come on here and say this very thing. What a great show!

Oh yeah, spelling bee? If this isn’t a word, then what did Jane Eyre and the other orphans at Lowood suffer from in the winter, hmmmm???

Holy shit, New York! Here’s the full view. #NoKings #50501Movement

Great turnout. Great energy. Don’t get stuck on the 42nd and 41st side streets.

Not enough people talking about how the Brad Pitt racing movie appears to have the same plot as Cars 3. Like going by the trailer it’s beat-for-beat.

No kings except Kings (NBC, 2009)

We know what we have to do to save our city from Andrew Cuomo. We're cross endorsing 🤝 @bradlander.bsky.social

My 9-year-old son, who has not seen 2001, but is familiar with ChatGPT's little weirdsies, thinks this is the funniest thing ever.

I asked ChatGPT to make me a website and I got this:

I just realized what all the ChatGPT hallucinations and obsequious apologies remind me of!!

Check out the wfp slate!

We can beat Cuomo. In the Democratic primary, rank Mamdani, Lander, Myrie, Adrienne Adams, and Ramos (or a fifth person who IS NOT CUOMO). This is winnable.

Hot take: I think the composers of the Mission Impossible movies should’ve kept more of the incidental music in 5/4 time like the original theme
