I just finished the 2nd book of ACOTAR. It took a while to get through a few parts, but the characters, world building, and twists keep it moving. My fiance is on book 4. She's loved this series!

I've been digging into @aduralde.bsky.social Christmas book, and I was wondering if he thought Mysterious Skin was considered a Christmas movie. The climax takes place during the holiday. I didn't see it in the indexes.

I finished reading @williamfleitch.bsky.social book Friday night. @christylemire.bsky.social was right with her recommendation. Friends, check out LLOYD MCNEIL'S LAST RIDE. Fantastic read!

Donald Trump is failing cognitive tests and plunging the nation into a recession. But my liberal neighbor's giant Ukrainian flag is so cringe. I have never felt more politically homeless.

Happy Holidays from me and my better half, my fiance Britney.

Just a reminder that at least 600 Americans were fired for failing to show sufficient respect after Charlie Kirk's murder.

There's nothing more attractive than someone's enjoyment working in their element. My fiance really did a great job with her latest project. I will never discourage her creativity.

It's cool to see random banter subjects from @jeffandrickpresent.bsky.social show up in publications like @nytimes.com

Fantastic list! My reminder to watch Eephus

I would like to exchange Christmas cards this season. If you're reading and interested, message me your address.

Hey there friends. It would be great if you considered giving a little coin to the committee I am vice chair of in my home county. I would really appreciate it. secure.actblue.com/my-express/e...

American public opinion is largely generated by foreigners who make money by lying to Americans over unregulated social media. Out of respect to those entrepreneurial foreigners, we will continue to treat their commodified fictions as one side of a reasoned American debate. -The Editorial Board

Breaking character: I am open to the idea the media's coverage of Biden's age and mental acuity was fair or perhaps not even tough enough. But the fact that it was so much tougher than the coverage of Trump's (more severe) mental decline is damning and I can't see how anyone could argue otherwise.

I had seen the post earlier this afternoon and was absolutely floored. This has been my monthly supplier of books for the last few years. The staff has been so wonderful and I really wish I had a BwP in my town. Please consider helping. gofund.me/a5156fa0d

This past Halloween, I asked my best friend to marry me, much to the joy of the kids. She said yes. Wedding day is tba.

I got to review the picture Manhunter (1986) with @bfastallday.bsky.social! I hope you get a chance to view it. I'm very appreciative to @christylemire.bsky.social & @aduralde.bsky.social for a great time. youtu.be/whNGflyzYvs?...

Meet these 2 beauties! Marigold and Midnight.

I came across quite the interesting historical short documentary this afternoon. I thought @ironageofcomics.bsky.social as well as @jdavidclarke.bsky.social would appreciate this. Also, the event talked about at length is getting published 30 years later! youtu.be/EV1m7T93EDA?...

Now seated for what I have read as the best picture of 2025.

I just finished reading the latest Jae Lee, Gerry Duggan, Kelvin Mao, and Robert Windom miniseries. Colors by June Chung. A wild and frenetic read! Recommended.

I bought one for me and Brit today. We plan on reading it together. Thank you @katesulli.bsky.social for the suggestion.

I've been contemplating reading a Sarah J Mass series and sharing it with my girlfriend Brit. Kind of like a book club with her. I want to ask @katesulli.bsky.social what her recommendation is?

Scenes from this past weekend. I went to my youngest niece's wedding, and that evening, my county's Truman Day rally dinner. I was accompanied by the lovely Britney and her gorgeous 1st born.

No notes

This tracks!

Man, I remember finding issues of X-Factor at spinner racks up until Angel's transformation to Archangel. Issues would be scarce for quite a while. I do like the fact you still have this copy, though.

After reading Steven Spielberg's comments for One Battle After Another, I wonder if @bfastallday.bsky.social got to a screening and us their enthusiasm similar to Spielberg's?

Going to a friend's birthday pool party.

Happiest of birthdays to @christylemire.bsky.social today! Check out her newsletter at christylemire.beehiiv.com and follow her @bfastallday.bsky.social. May your upcoming year be the best yet, Christy!

fantastic lede from sam, and the rest of it ain’t too shabby either

Released 35 years ago on this day. My gateway to David Lynch filmmaker at 15 years old.

I'm just watching Life 360 to see the oldest make her way home.

I just ordered mine! Thank you to @drewmcweeny.com for the post!

A souvenir stuck to my back side after a couple of hours playing Barbie and Ken with the youngest last night.

You know what is pretty great? Getting a copy of Geezer #3 by @pjbond.offregister.press @willpotter.bsky.social and edited by @sxbond.bsky.social. Fantastic stuff! What was your take of the Oasis reunion show?

I'm listening to @devincf.bsky.social and @whwoolhat.bsky.social deep dive into Secret Wars II. Wonderful episodes! I wanted to suggest them to check out @wordballoon.bsky.social for a 4 part conversation John conducted with Al Milgrom of Secret Wars II. Really fun stuff!

Check it out @jeffandrickpresent.bsky.social; past guest Hilary Barta gifted this page to Walt and Louise Simonson. This was the sweetest thing I saw today, and I figured you guys would like it.

August 2; Today I was working at the Back to School rally. We provided dozens of families with classroom essentials. I got to see students of all ages, say hi and chat with parents, while enjoying the mild weather! I went to Brit's in the afternoon. A lot of good work put in today.

August 1; I was able to get the yard mown without interruption nor threat of heat stroke. I managed to get my laundry done, This evening I attended the Ripley County Fair with the gf and family. Rides were rode, corn dogs were ate, lemonade to quench thirst, and lawnmower races for entertainment.

I think UNDER THE SILVER LAKE gets better every time I watch it.

I'm watching MALICE from 1993. A stacked cast for director Harold Becker. If you ever wanted to know how Aaron Sorkin scripts a thriller, this is streaming on Tubi.

Jim Shooter, a comic book writer, editor and publisher known for his stint as EIC of Marvel Comics, has died at age 73.

During the lunch date Zoom meeting for @bfastallday.bsky.social, I received a great compliment! I look similar to the fantastic @williambibbiani.bsky.social that made my day. Guys, for 10 dollars you too can talk with other movie lovers as well as @christylemire.bsky.social & @aduralde.bsky.social

I just saw a post that a titan from the comics world passed. Godspeed Jim Shooter.

Father's Day 2025 for your guy and the family.
