Happy Gotcha Day, Winnie! You snuck in just under the pandemic wire 5 years ago today. Sure, if you had your choice we'd be a 1 cat family (yes, we know Nikko isn't a cat but rather a spawn of evil in a cat shaped body 🙄), but you're still Queen Winnifred the Regal and no one can take that away. ❤️🐈

An "it me" in the AJC today. Behind a paywall, so some of it is blurred (unless you subscribe obviously). Thanks to Suzanne Van Atten for the article! www.ajc.com/things-to-do...

"This is one time where television really fails to capture the true excitement of a large squirrel predicting the weather." www.bbc.com/news/article... Groundhog Day on Objectively Intelligent: player.captivate.fm/.../270a6c50... #podcast #movies

Rise and shine, campers ... It's Groundhog Day! Easily one of the best Bill Murray films. Drop your favorite lines or gifs, give it a listen, see the movie, and watch that first step. It's a doozy! On all platforms, free on zacharysteele.com or here: player.captivate.fm/.../270a6c50... #podcast

Big news! I've accepted a job as manager of Hub City Bookshop! It's a fabulous opportunity and I'm looking forward to being part of the @hubcitypress.bsky.social family.

Nikko's really nailing that high note in Bohemian Rhapsody. Cat's got game. Gotta give him props.

Maybe you like the Mummy, maybe you don't. But it's time Brendan Fraser was given more credit for his previous films, including one underrated film that showed his range (albeit in a comedic way). Hop on board for a revisit of The Mummy. It's fun. Do you have any favorite Fraser films? #podcast

Snow way. Snow problem, dude. Snow big deal, I don't care. Um. Snow. I don't know. I guess all you peoples in the ATL area stole all the snow, but it was enough here for a few hours of fun and pics w Jess and Sadie. That's a win.

Hey, so you're probably watching this today or tomorrow anyway, so here's a bonus episode this week to add some background to a Christmas classic. Merry Christmas Available everywhere and free at zacharysteele.com/the-objectively-intelligent-podcast/. #podcast #podcasting

My Junior Editor was back on the job this morning. Hope is we'll have things cleared out for the holiday break. I don't have the heart to tell him his vacation time doesn't kick in until next year. I'll probably send him an email from the beach. #cats

My editorial team has punked out on me. So hard to find good help. #cats #editing

I had the privilege of watching DUALITY, the latest play written and directed by Anthony Laura. I've offered my full thoughts in a review, which is now up at zacharysteele.com/review-duality/. #review #theater #play #actors #acting

It's not only time to head back to Bedford Falls, but it's time to dig into my (likely) unpopular take on IT'S A WONDERFUL LIFE. Free on zacharysteele.com or available anywhere podcasts are found. #podcast #podcasting #itsawonderfullife #christmas #movies

Nikko is not a fan of quantum physics.

So, as one who is not prone to throwing or attending parties, a question for those who do: You know that one guest that, sure, yes, you invited, and when they got there it was all swell and entertaining, but then as the event wears on they become downright unpleasant? How do you get them to leave?

Kicking off the holiday season with the oft-debated classic, Die Hard. It's great, but that's not much of a debate. The debate is: Is it a Christmas movie? I have the definitive answer! Available on all platforms or free at zacharysteele.com. #movie #christmas #holidaymovies #humor #podcast

Just a little sneak peek from today's dual birthday celebration for Jess and Sadie! This place is awesome. At Darby Acre Farms and Safari.

So, admittedly, I hadn't seen It's a Wondeful Life until last night. Today Germ and I are recording an episode of Objectively Intelligent on it. I have opinions, some of them likely unpopular. But I am curious: What is it about this film that you love, or that you don't? #movies #itsawonderfullife

For my #writers out there: If you could improve one area of your writing now, what would it be?

This one was definitely fun. One of my favorites, not only to watch but to quote. As always, give it a listen anywhere you absorb podcasts. Including Spotify, Apple, Amazon/Audible, and free on my site at: zacharysteele.com/the-objectiv... #podcasts #movies #humor

Lucubrate. The new "inconceivable". 😳 #words #doesnotmeanwhatyouthinkitmeans

Back in my native state for the week. Florida, where the roads are like dry lava beds, where pink stucco is a birthright, where 'education' is a four-letter word. Where the pleasantness of a mid-November day isn't measured by the 80 degree temperature, but the lack of tourists. #florida

Going to give this app a shot. Looking to connect with readers, writers, editors, people who like to laugh, any anyone who is wise enough to know that baseball is the greatest game on Earth. #writingcommunity #baseball #braves #writing #books

It floors me to see words like these from some truly amazing talents. Nate's journey is such a personal one, a coming of age story told through a different, and quite colorful, lens. I'm proud of it and more hopeful of its potential in the world than anything I've ever written.

COMING SOON! Robert Gwaltney and I had a chin-wag-on-the-front-porch kind of visit with @zacharysteele.bsky.social to discuss his novel PERFECTLY NORMAL. #wellreadmagazine #insidevoices #betweenthepagespodcast #podcastersofinstagram #comingofage #autismawareness #authorsofinstagram #bookrelease

I'm seeing a complete absence of hashtags, which is happyjoychefskiss. Anyone know if those are useful here or can I burn them all in fire?

We've finally found a functional use for AI. #80s #yearbook #family #umok

It's me, in a thing. Talking about risk, the multiple hats I get to wear, and stuff and things. Thanks to Bold Journey for the feature! boldjourney.com/news/meet-za...

So I'm here. Like moving into a new place that's virtually empty and now I have to buy furniture, I guess.
