I haven't seen La Bamba in a long, long time, but I used to watch it all the time when VH1 would play it.

I made garlic naan for all 4 of us. Yes, yes, I was one of those who used the time to make some kind of bread I'd never made before.

Serious question.
How do you judge an actor?
What makes a great performance?
Some actors do a lot acting but I’m not sure it’s necessarily good.
There are some famous actors who are just dead behind the eyes.

I wouldn't feel like a complete piece of shit about being too disabled to work but not meeting the criteria to be on disability. I'd commission more art, fix up my house, would start a charity for housing surrendered pets.
Honest question: If everyone got Universal Basic Income, no strings attached, what would YOU do with it?

With the mention of Italian gardens in this last chapter of The Age of Innocence, I was reminded of Wharton's own gardens in Lenox, MA, about which our tour guide told us had Italian inspiration. #InnocenceReads 🏹

the crimes are obviously worse but there's also the constant indignities of all formal levers of government communication being taken over by people with a schoolyard bully's vocabulary and the pugilistic instinct of a drunk at the second bar that's cut them off that night

I don’t know if anyone else notices or cares, but when I see a presentation in which the speaker uses obviously generated-AI images to illustrate their slides, it makes me immediately less confident in whatever other content they’re presenting.

The life of a French fence must be exhausting, one day it's a load of snails that like 4 restaurants worldwide even want, the next it's the crown jewels of a country that hasn't existed for 400 years, probably tomorrow it's a thousand baguette baskets carefully handmade from Aquitanian reeds
