That’s twice this week I’ve been reminded that certain terrible people have been complimented thusly: “Yeah, they’re awful, but they’re a great writer.” Does not the material you write count? Is well-written garbage something to praise? Lies, cheats, can really pound out 10,000 words on deadline!

Look up “Lead–crime hypothesis.”

my latest investigation for @consumerreports.org is based on months of reporting and 60+ lab tests of leading protein supplements

Tariffs have rapidly increased the price of coffee—a drink with almost no nutritional value and lots of functional substitutes. Yet coffee may also be the one thing Americans can’t live without, @elcush.bsky.social writes:
The Drink That Americans Won’t Give Up Without a Fight
Coffee has almost no nutritional value and lots of substitutes. It’s also, apparently, too important to lose.

I have my issues with the movie The Post, but it does portray WaPo as the podunk local rag it was before Pentagon Papers/Watergate. (DC also had The Washington Star.)

My favorite Struzan story is that he was doing the poster for Indy at Disneyland, but they didn't have the rights to Ford's likeness. Fed up with working around the problem, Struzan just called Ford and was like, "hey, can I use your face for this," and Ford said, "if it's for you, absolutely."

I forgot that Mysterious Affair includes one use of the N-word and a couple instances of antisemitism. It’s there from the start! 👍

Yes, the new John Candy doc made me cry. A lot.

I first heard that episode in 1997 and it’s been stuck in my head ever since.

@clairewillett.bsky.social I’m rereading The Mysterious Affair at Styles again and I am reminded that Hastings is kind of a dope right from the jump.

I think about Halloween III: Season of the Witch all the time and it is definitely not a “good” movie.
