Ben a long time since we’ve gotten a new example of fine Loser Cinema, thanks Kelly
Chicago Ave & California
There’s no one like Chris
Later he made fun of Mike Birbiglia and then said “none of this is usable”
He also had a riff about how Chicago is “where Seth Meyers cut his teeth” and joked that he had to shoot his special in the city “where Seth Meyers learned the rule of threes”
The delivery robots have arrived in Chicago
Chris’s first joke of the show last night: “I released a special two years ago and it sparked a nationwide manhunt for my pronouns”
I hope the Terri Gross bit makes it into the final edit.
I was at Chris Fleming’s HBO special taping at the Palace Theater. One of the best currently doing it.
I dunno how much Neon is going to campaign for this in award season but as far as I'm concerned it's time for Jesse Plemons to get an Oscar. Maybe the best actor of my generation.
God DAMN this rips. Honestly can’t believe we got this and One Battle within a few weeks of each other
Music Box men’s room graffiti: “Godzilla hates ICE!”

Chicago, IL: Border Patrol Chief Gregory Bovino personally joined an ICE raid at a laundromat in the city, but the owner locked the doors and refused entry, halting the operation on site
Insane design work in this. Somewhere between Patrick Nagel and Pee-Wee's Playhouse. Nothing but weird camera angles. That's without even getting into the wild editing weave between the found footage and new footage. I need to read something about the background of how this film came to be.
Diane Keaton's Heaven is incredibly cool. Why hasn't this been a stoner classic for the past 40 years? I guess because stoners didn't have Tubi for most of that time.
How has bluesky made it this far without a working search feature. Searching has been like the most basic function of anything on the computer for my whole life. These clowns can't crack it
Inhaled the first 100 pages of The Slip by @lucaseschaefer.bsky.social practically in one sitting. This is what I think of as a “big bowl of creamy soup” novel.
America isn't ready for politicians who look and sound like Kyle Kinane. That's why they railroaded Graham Platner. JK he obviously needs to go but I do think it's true America isn't ready to elect Kyle Kinane to legislative office
The whole concept of "advice"—giving and receiving—should be eliminated from human understanding. If it's good advice, the only way to really learn it is through your own trials and errors; if it's bad advice, well, it's bad. There's no upside to advice.
Do you have any extremely niche, but serious, ethical stances?
It seems like my take on Connor O'Malley's Coreys will also apply to The Chair Company
I've only watched two movies this month. I'm pretty close to being done with this dead medium
Edamame should be called green beans. It's literally beans that are green. Green beans could be called edamame, I guess. Might as well do a clean switch.

Watching the Monkees TV show for the first time at this late stage in the boomer lifespan really makes it feel like I've unlocked a Rosetta stone for understanding their culture
