Costco and Trader Joes are yin and yang. Together they form a harmonious balance. One sells big piles of normal food, the other sells small piles of weird food. These are the two food piles people need

watched some reacher on the treadmill today and i do love that we have a whole franchise whose central premise is “what if a man were really big”

This makes me indescribably angry. We, as a country, were paying this guy to be go around being awesome and do awesome stuff. THAT is wealth. But now, instead, we’re going to let more money pile up in Elon’s bank account. Just incredible, cruel stupidity.

I was already a subscriber but just happily paid. I am grateful for the essential work Brian Merchant is doing.

Awake early and way too angry, so I’m doing what any reasonable person would do: watching La Dolce Villa on Netflix and eating peanut M&Ms for breakfast.

Books are one of the few things keeping me above water right now. Can’t get enough of ‘em.

We as a nation are over-exposed to Gronk.

Every single time I’ve watched Lars and the Real Girl (a lot) since first seeing it in 2007, I’m convinced it’s a masterpiece of compassion & grace, and one of the truest distillations—without ever once hitting you over the head with it, or even stating it directly—of how to heal from trauma.

I have a big ask. My 9yo son is autistic and he’s been raising a betta fish he named Kevin. Yesterday He asked if he could “share a photo of Kevin with the whole world“. I don’t know if this will work, but a dad’s gotta try. Like and share if that’s your thing. Kevin says hi! 🐟👋

THE LAST SHOWGIRL: What a picture! I will be thinking about this movie—and all the women who made it—for as long as my brain works.

Today I watched Looking For Mr. Goodbar for the first time. If that is what sexually open women should expect, I feel lucky to have survived my twenties.

Listen. If you are a person who wears lipstick/gloss/liner, you are absolutely fucking up if you don’t use Pat McGrath. Favs so far are lip pencils but the lipsticks and glosses are A++ too. You’ve been warned.

If you read one article today, please let it be this. And for the #writingcommunity, take special note of this "The role of storytelling is even more important in a political world influenced by propaganda from both foreign and domestic sources."

I specifically remember thinking that the Dodgers World Series parade was our series finale. This feels like some lame follow-up special.

Why doesn’t Condé Nast let me stay signed in?? Even when they claim that I am signed in?? Such a petty complaint but also insane that this happens. I just wanna read old Joan Didion articles. Why else did I subscribe to Vogue?
