Ryan Coogler's The Last Dragon.

Spike Lee’s THE COLOR PURPLE.

Whatever made Bond special is done. They might make good movies. They might make terrible movies. But whatever they are, they are going to be far more corporate, far more conventionally minded. It's just another franchise now. *shrug* Honestly, what place does Bond have in 2025 anyway?

SPECTRE (2025)

Look, I don't want to put "The Constitution" on the list with "Santa Claus" of things they lied to us about as kids, but unless I see some checks and balances kick the fuck in, what choice do I have? Either we have the rule of law or we do not. Which is it, Everyone Besides Elon?

Made an appointment weeks ago to complete my Real ID application at the downtown DMV. I show up and their fucking system is down. Because of course it is. I saw the Hollywood one has just a 10 minute wait for walk ins so here I am. About 40 minutes later I get my number. Now I'm in a bigger line

Final hockey trip of the season booked! Heading to Denver to see my #LAKings take on the Colorado Avalanche to cross off NHL Arena #18. Also booked a quick bus trip to Cheyenne, Wyoming to cross my 30th state off the list. Flying in (way too) early on Thursday, March 27 for the Kings/Avalanche

New pucks and shot glasses (current count: 81) added to the displays and PopChart updated. NHL arena count: 17, with 18 (Denver) being added in March. Will retire the #FourRinksSixDays hashtag tomorrow or Monday and break down the numbers! Now time for breakfast before #DodgerFest this afternoon!

Oh shit! I'm going! #Dodgers

Delicious. Last day of vaycay so day drinking a bit before heading to the airport. #FourRinksSixDays

The Palomilla steak plate with an ale from Barcelona at Columbia Restaurant. Remarkable. Thanks for recommending this place, Carrie! Still have time to kill so gonna Lyft to to the Yuengling Brewery and make my old friend Rich very jealous :) #FourRinksSixDays

My first and definitely last time working with the Los Angeles Times. Editing out the most urgent point of an OpEd in the minutes before sending to press while then also assigning a title and image that suggest an argument entirely opposite to the author’s clear intent is pretty shitty.

Gotta check out a place that has been around since 1905. #FourRinksSixDays

Good morning, Tampa! The #FourRinksSixDays trip is complete and I lived to tell the tale.... AND even did it under my folding money budget! Unfortunately my #LAKings managed to lose all four games and haven't scored a goddamn goal in the last 8 periods. Sure they were facing two of the best between

Greetings from Section 124 of Amalie Arena, finally made it! #FourRinksSixDays trip is complete! Thanks for these great tickets Carrie!

Ok, finally on this tiny plane. None of this makes any sense. And we had to enter on the tarmac and I somehow deleted my boarding pass email between the gate and plane and couldn't find it. Again, fuck Silver Airways. #FourRinksSixDays

Of course this happened. No inclement weather of any kind yet my 75-minute flight to Tampa is delayed two fucking hours because the fucking plane isn't fucking here. Great. Grand. Wonderful. In theory I should be able to get to the game kinda on time but who knows. Fuck this whole fucking state.

Always love when they have the chalice. Happy Thursday y'all! *raises chalice* #FourRinksSixDays

Lunch, local beer (a nice Wynwood La Rubia) and killing time before heading to the airport. #FourRinksSixDays

Good morning, Sunrise! Had a decent free breakfast downstairs now packing up and getting ready. Checking out at 11 then probably getting lunch down the street before catching a Lyft to the Fort Lauderdale Airport for my quick flight to my last stop on the #FourRinksSixDays trip: Tampa.

Greetings from Section 105 of Amerant Bank Arena! Unfortunately couldn't get here in time for warmups because if you walk in Florida it's apparently a crime and you have walk all the fucking way around the arena for no fucking reason. Honestly don't think I'll ever come back to Florida ever again

Literal pre-gaming at The Yard House before the #LAKings and Panthers game. #FourRinksSixDays

Florida public transportation in a nutshell... #FourRinksSixDays

Lomo saltado at Embarcadero 41. Astonishing. #FourRinksSixDays

Greetings from my home for the evening, LA Quinta Inn & Suites Sunrise! Got early check-in so now I'm gonna solve the other pressing issue: food. There's a Peruvian place across the street so gonna go check that out. Then probably just chill at the hotel for a few hours then head to Sawgrass mall

Haha what are the odds of hitting two #StarWars nights in one trip? Wild. #FourRinksSixDays

Good morning, Miami! Still not quite sure how to kill this afternoon after I check out. I finally got a hold of the hotel in Sunrise and its only $20 for early check-in so I'll probably do that. If i can check my bag here i might just take a Lyft to the beach and walk around and see if i can find
