Sold, and I was just wondering what I was going to watch tonight. And I don’t even have kids.

I never would've known about this film if not for @jasondashbailey.com celebrating it in the NYT back in July. Read this and you will rush to see it, have the best time, and then wonder why it's not better known.

He’ll be earworming you: My new #HitParadePod on @slate.com is about Sting, the jazzy pop-generator who keeps getting paid. In the Police he blended reggae+new wave. Solo, he tried jazz, classical, funk, rap…even Raï. Whether on your radio or getting sampled, every little thing Sting tries is magic.

Every Breath Sting Takes, Every Hit Sting Makes—We’ve Been Watching Him.

Everyone knows "Every Breath You Take"—but Sting's legacy is built on hits from the unexpected genres.

Love her

Another great episode. However, I do wonder which lady in sunglasses with a ridiculous tan, @ghweldon.bsky.social is talking about? And there’s a gay man of a certain age. I always thought Roy Scheider was hot www.npr.org/2025/08/28/n... @npr.org

D'Angelo was remarkable in so many ways. I'm saddest right now, as a fan, that we won't be getting an eccentric late period from him. His contributions remain inestimable but what he would have made in his 50s and onward, I just know it would have been amazing. RIP

Kimmel’s return might just be the spark that late night needed @edeggans.bsky.social

Media companies thought late night TV was irrelevant. Kimmel proved them wrong

Jimmy Kimmel's return to airwaves might just point the way forward for late night TV to prove its relevance to American audiences — and to itself.

This is due to a law signed by Ronald Reagan and has nothing to do with this shutdown fight.

But consider this...

Emergency Medicaid spending in 2023 cost $3.8 billion — just 0.4% of total Medicaid spending.

Now what about the $20 billion taxpayers are giving to Argentina?
