if you saw my microsoft word crash out before i deleted it...you're welcome, happy holidays

Anyway how are you

The aspect of the Oscars that I've always loved the best was how it helped to make its audience aware of a whole swath of movies it hadn't considered. Taking the Oscars to where the eyeballs actually are now isn't the worst thing.

As an extremely long-time Oscars nerd who takes them very seriously…this is a great thing. There are no cons.

Sirat making a lot of Oscar shortlists today…didn’t see that coming

As someone just pointed out to me, perhaps a top contender in the annals of “It Only Tuesday” Tuesdays. theonion.com/it-only-tues...

This Rob Reiner news is just…man

Includes Cate Blanchett and Judi Dench references, which makes this a secret Notes on a Scandal reunion

Love that comic genius Rose Byrne is starting critics’ awards season on a big run. Excited to see IIHLIKY whenever it’s not $20

When they gave it to Kathryn Hunter for Macbeth in 2021 they established a strong precedent for celebrating witches and I’m glad to see it honored

I know I’m getting old because I just ate a really amazing, cold apple and I had to tweet about it

Holy crap there is an Olympics in a few months

i really hope Felix is going into 2026 thinking he can crack the Top 3. truly, why not?

i truly didn't know Marty Supreme is inspired by a real person. i was a victim of the reverse-Tar

Ok atp finals, you got me with that point

Tired: Rachel and Sean Wired: Pam and Judd Inspired: me and Johnny Bananas

Montana, Elka, Kameelah and Genesis would have found a way to end this shutdown and save your flights, I’m just saying

Favorite thing I learned in press today BY FAR is that Jess Pegula’s husband Taylor is a huge Monica Niculescu fan.

Insane

oh sheesh Donnie Baseball is here? my fave player as a wee lad

Hell of a double play

oh this man said “Fuck You Motherfucker” loooool

i know it's the end of the month but if you start moving out at 7pm on a Friday Halloween, you probably should have planned better

"I DON'T NEED YOU TO FUCKING REWRITE WHAT I'VE JUST WRITTEN!"

Vacherot vs. Rinderknech again, this time as wild cards in Paris. Crazy

13th inning, OK I will watch my first baseball this year

just accurately typed the word "November" within next week's tournament dates. naturally, i screamed 🙃

is Gala’s “Freed From Desire” (1996) the official song of Europe? (yes)

it seriously stops time in its tracks lol

wait happy belated 25th birthday to No Doubt's "Return of Saturn," which didn't get its due then and still doesn't

i honestly don't know what i'd do without post-its. three cheers to Romy and Michele

Okay how in the hell am I supposed to do anything for days after this

Academy Award winner Diane Keaton has died at the age of 79. How few actresses can say they've marched to the beat of their own drum and stayed so universally beloved? Simply irreplaceable.

wait the cousins actually pulled it off

three Top 10 wins for Siegemund this year -- her most in a calendar year since 2017, when she had five Top 10 wins (three of those en route to Stuttgart title)

alert alert i'm actually watching a scripted television show made in the last 10 years, it's called "Hacks" and i think this breakthrough artist Jean Smart is going places

Ok today I personally need to bring up how “Ordinary People” got tons of shit for decades for beating “Raging Bull” at the Oscars, but — taking that completely out of the equation — “Ordinary People” fuckinggggg rules. One of the all-time best directorial feature debuts. Period.

my favorite robert redford story is that mike nichols considered him for dustin hoffman's part in THE GRADUATE. during their conversation nichols asked redford something like, "have you ever struck out with a girl?" and redford's response was basically, "i don't understand the question"

started reading an article about Gen Alpha podcasts and immediately crumbled into a pile of dust

THE TUCC

ESPN keeps using a graphic of Carlos with hair

Wow, hell of a point there

Wait it’s legit insane how quickly they’re both going to Career Slam loooollll

if Anisimova wins the US Open title, she would be the first woman since Lindsay Davenport to win the US Open Juniors and eventually go on to win the main event Anisimova won the USO juniors in 2017...a few notable names at the back end of this draw, eh?

15 years ago, Vera Zvonareva made her first two Slam finals at Wimbledon and US Open...Anisimova now does the same this year (and she's hoping to win one of them, which Bepa could not do)

Show. THE PLAYER. Celebrating. for fuck's sake

Djokosmash

Wait Cliffy is retiring, oh wait I’m emotional

In 30+ years of watching his ESPN commentary, I think this is the first time they’ve ever shown clips of Cliffy playing tennis
