Ya know what really would suck? Being a poll worker in an un-air-conditioned school gym in NYC today. God bless 'em.

Since we have FiOS, we don't get NY1, but they're running their special NYC mayoral primary coverage on YouTube for free today, so that's nice.

The ever-brilliant [sic] Eric Adams: "The best way to tackle our city's housing crisis is to build as much affordable housing as we can," Adams said in a statement Monday.

As I waited on an extremely long line to vote early in the NYC mayoral primary today, some guy walked by the line exclaiming, “Andrew Cuomo — slappin’ fannies, killin’ grannies.”

Woke up with this song playing in my head. Now I share it with you. www.youtube.com/watch?v=EdrS...

Excited that Twin Peaks just got added to Mubi; wondering when on earth I'll ever find time to watch it, though.

City Council member Keith Powers has introduced legislation to make bodega cats legal in NYC! A true hero! www.instagram.com/p/DKzkpG_MJcn/

The Swell Season has a nice new song out, with their first album in 16 years. "Forward," out July 11. #musicsky www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Np5...

Listening to "Pet Sounds," as one should today. God, what a fantastically beautiful album this is.

Brian Wilson died and Mike Love still walks the earth. There is no justice in this world.

Stupid lazy me couldn't drag my ass to the theater to see the Pavement movie before it left, so I'm glad to see it will be streaming on Mubi starting July 11.

I'm watching the replay on SNY right now. Pete's double, Baty's double play, Lindor's double, Diaz's save. It's the stuff that dreams are made of. Last night should go down as one of the games of the season. #mets

A cow-orker just said in the group chat, "I love ice cream truck music." Is it any surprise she also scabbed during our strike?

So I'm going to DVR "Cinema Paradiso" when it's on TCM tonight at 8, but I am wondering, am I misremembering a cloying, saccharine, mawkish movie as being something great? I don't really recall much about it, except that I liked it when I first saw it, but that was a looooong time ago. #filmsky

Watching the NYC mayoral debate, and wondering who the fuck Whitney Tilson is and why he's wasting my time.

The ONLY good thing about the Knicks losing is it likely made Timothée Chalamet cry.

And, hey, June, why'd you have to come Why'd you have to come around so soon? I wasn't ready for all this nature The terrible green, green grass And violent blooms of flowered dresses And afternoons that make me sleepy www.youtube.com/watch?v=8kxC...

Make Way for Tomorrow is showing on TCM tonight at 8. It's a heartbreaker, and it's definitely worth your time. #filmsky #tvsky

Crossing all my appendages for the Knicks tonight!

Gotta love those TV nights like tonight, when Jeopardy! Masters, which is really fucking hard, is followed by Celebrity Jeopardy!, which is basically for stupid people.

SpaceX rocket blew up. Isn't that a darned shame? Hahahahaha.

Watching the Thunder-Timberwolves game so I can see who the Knicks are going to face in the finals. (Oh, shut up and let me have my little delusions.)

My blood pressure was a little high when I took it tonight, and that was well before this Knicks comeback.
