Happy last day of February, babies!

I can't even get a call or email back from this guy, much less a town hall

Jebediah Derwood Bowman (yes I know thats not what JD stands for) goes to Munich is the new Bonzo Goes to Bitburg

Good morning to everyone but the billionaire who led that wild press conference from the Oval.

I am rarely posting to Facebook but every once in a while do an incendiary post and then don't remember to check it.

The Kennedy Center website has such high traffic that there's a waiting room to get in.

Demme was a criminally underrated director, and "Something Wild" is his finest film.

Things I have done this week to regulate my nervous system: rereading "Possession" in print, watching "Moonstruck," practicing Spanish, and listening to albums instead of playlists.

Boom.

I'm sure this is fine

Good morning to everyone except my reps in the Tennessee leg, who voted for vouchers.

This federal freeze shenanigan is wildly wild and wrong.

Absolutely this right here.

Mass meditation for David Lynch's birthday, 3 p.m. Eastern, pass it on.

Dame Joan Plowright, rest in power.

Tennessee banned Tik Tok on all its government (including university) networks a long time ago.

I'm in!

I got late to the read-along of "The Power Broker" but it's now a project!

We watched a three-hour documentary called "Los Angeles Plays Itself," and the author specifically addresses the hate and misunderstanding the city receives. (From 2003, available to rent on YouTube)

Bowie left us nine years ago, and the world cracked.

What's a good Android app for listening to Podcasts that isn't Spotify? I'm not loving Audible for it.

If I were the richest person in the world, I would not be hanging out with unhappy people eating bad country club food in Palm Beach. To me it shows a lack of imagination.

I canceled Spotify-- this is the third time in the last few years. I really don't want to crawl back again!

Antiques Roadshow!

I'm trying to put my energy here.

Officially disheartened at that other (Zuck) site because of today's news. So going to try to be here more.

Competency porn is the new hero's journey, pass it on

"A Complete Unknown" was fantastic!

Stanley Tucci festival: Devil Wears Prada, Julie and Julia, now Big Night!

It's a great day to be a Tennessee Vol!

Omg, yes, actually www.mcsweeneys.net/articles/an-...

I'm normally a Christmas jazz girlie, but it's a bit cheery for this year's vibe. Going to Christmas coffeehouse.

Dear Spotify, I am never going to want to hear Dan & Shay on my Christmas mix. Never. Really.

I'm getting slammed with bot subscriptions on Substack -- anyone else?

Okay, so... at some point in the early 2000s, I internalized the idea that I would never finish another novel, and I lost three books at various stages. But this one, the one I am writing now, will be finished!
