All phenomena are fleeting. He/him. For those who don't know me from other social media sites: Waffles (Waf) is the name of our dog, not the name of my husband. [Update: Waf was. Marlowe is now our dog's name, not my husband's. Waf is now a name for love.]
Watching the Death By Lightning thing and hating Roscoe Conklin a lot, so I looked up the real guy. Good lord: Fatty Arbuckle's dad hated Conklin so much he named his kid 'Roscoe Conklin Arbuckle'. That kid was damned from his birth.

This, btw, is a large reason why people watch the Tony awards each year even when they haven't seen a nominated show. So I understand.
my non-sports fans might be wondering “what’s the appeal of watching two teams that you don’t really care who wins?”
the answer is “one of the fanbases loses, and Energy Vampires have needs, too.”

It's always interesting to me that the visual punch of the posters depends on Lady Macbeth's dress.
These posters for the South Korean stage production of Macbeth are the greatest thing ever? #art

"There's more of gravy in you than grave."
"Damn right. Baby gravy. I still got it even dead a fuckin doornail, and just as hard."

Just getting around to watching Death By Lightning and... am I to understand that James Garfield might've been a pretty good president if he hadn't been shot like 2 months in?

I mean this in the specious etymological sense, and as a gay man: I hope one day Tucker Carlson truly understands what it means to be a faggot.
1. Tucker Carlson, in a manner bordering on sensuous euphoria, said the word Fa**ot twenty times in his interview with Piers Morgan.
Tucker was saying it as some sort of protest to a woman who was allegedly arrested and charged for using it in response to her domestic abuser.

I know this will eventually be a limited series and I hope it's done well, and not a cheesy Hallmark thing (no offense to those who like Hallmark movies) bc after 10 years of following this, I want prestige all over the adaptation. Top talent. No expense spared.

Psssst. Sometimes, too, presidents go coocoo. Sometimes the person leading a country--any country--just goes nuts. Like, right now. And this country. Trump is absolutely bonkers. He's not fit to order brunch for the table. Not fit to lead a marching band. Not fit to wipe an ass, let alone his.

Vital Marlowe update: It's been a fine day in that we spent time together and with others, entertained Marlowe, took advantage of the empty laundry room, and got to see @mst3kofficial.bsky.social Turkey Day. Marlowe is now enjoying the clean laundry. And maybe MST3k

Knives Out mystery but in the south. At one point, after a heated discussion about Jinx Monsoon, a grandmother turns out the lights for 5 minutes, and then the survivors have to figure out who shot who. Then the college grad spends another hour working out if it's 'whom'.

Absolutely support this but also--and not the point I know--I can't help but note who is wearing hairnets and who isn't here.

Weeks ago someone did a prompt for best line delivery in a film. Here's the thing: the best is a line not actually delivered. In Galaxy Quest, Sigourney Weaver looks at a hallway full of danger and is told she has to go thru that hallway. She said, 'Well FUCK THAT' but they changed the line in post.

The National Guard is not law enforcement. They're... it's RIGHT THERE IN THE NAME. THEY GUARD, they don't enforce.
REPORTER: There are people upset with the president, believing the National Guard members shouldn't have been there
PIRRO: I don't even wanna talk about whether they should've been there. We ought to kiss the ground and thank God that the president said it's time to bring in more law enforcement
