You really could just put a tight camera on John Candy with nothing but him and the driver's seat of a car in frame and then watch him almost wordlessly do five of the funniest minutes in the history of movies.

271/365–‘In Search of Darkness: A Journey into Iconic 80s Horror’ Took two days to get this 4-plus hour marathon, but was worth it to see which of the major 80s franchises dominated (hint: Jason wins!) If you watch #TLDI, you’ll recognize all of these films

Self promo is my bane; it makes me feel like an immense tit when I post stuff about my writing (thanks to upbringing - never blow your own horn), but it is increasingly apparent that all it means is that I'm utterly invisible as a writer...
So, anyway.
I have books and stories out there.

People who post "they don't make good movies anymore" or "movies are better than they have ever been" definitely need to watch more movies. Watch old movies. Watch movies with subtitles. Watch different genres. Otherwise you're missing out. #filmsky

Home insurance is in crisis, and Big Oil's lies are to blame.
"We’re never going to bend the curve of ever-rising insurance costs without addressing the core driver of higher prices: the worsening climate disasters that Big Oil knowingly made a reality," explains CCI's @iylas.bsky.social.

This is all very prescient and worth a read 👇
Reposting my predraft article on JJ McCarthy since I’ve referenced it a few times lately. A lot of the mechanical concerns that I laid out here are still apparent when watching him.

J.J. McCarthy's upside is tantalizing. The question is how high it actually goes
McCarthy weighed 17 pounds heavier at the combine than he did at Michigan, which could be significant. Here's what the tape tells Nate Tice about arguably the draft's most polarizing prospect.
