The best mashed potatoes I’ve ever had were served to me at Restaurant Georges at Centre Pomidou in Paris. My husband @damngoodpie.bsky.social and I STILL talk about that meal over a decade later.

@sheilakathleen.bsky.social is a friend from WAY back, like decades ago when we both had very different careers! She’s become one of the smartest people about movies I know, and talking to her was an absolute pleasure.

Nails did. The colors of the Desert Playwrights’ Retreat logo. The Retreat started today! Nine LGBT playwrights spending an all-expenses-paid week in Palm Springs writing the next great American plays. Founded by yours truly in 2018. For more info: desertplaywrightsretreat.com

As an ex-Catholic, Catholicism is dumb & every Catholic knows it. It’s a club, not a religion, and the appeal is being in a big club w/opt-in activities that feel good. Rules are optional, choosing which ones to ignore makes you feel more important than the club. Ignoring child abuse required. 1 / 2

Ever see a topic trending on Bsky that you have a lot to say about, but then you get pre-exhausted about the whole thing and don’t post? Related topics: critics, film criticism, filmmaking

The price is too damn high! If you want a copy of our book QUEER HORROR: A FILM GUIDE, but the $75 price tag is too steep, hit me up! I got a guy who can get you a signed copy at a nice discount! (It’s me!)

Meeting someone I cared about. I met my dear friend @alexandrabillings.bsky.social 40 yrs ago in the Chicago theater trenches. We were in our 20s, and I had no real knowledge abt trans people - they were all drag queens to me. Just being around her while we lived our lives was an education. 1 / 2

I don't know Orrin, but the spirit of friendly competition is my favorite flavor. Someone will win a prize, but we all won cuz we all wrote a book & writing a book is hard. Go get a copy of Glowing in the Dark! Mine is on the way ❤️ And guess what? The rules say you can vote for TWO Books of the Year
