Deputy Editor at Truthdig. I love movies, good gossip, and the Midwest. Looking for people who know what I mean when I call something “a Saturday afternoon WGN movie”

This is a time you snitch. “No snitching” does not apply to monsters.

I enjoy both the Union Cab ad and the phone sex ads in this October 2001 edition

This week had been too much, so please enjoy this photo of Maximillian Schell as Dr. Hans Reinhardt in The Black Hole
Maximillian Schell in character as Dr. Hans Reinhardt, the mad scientist villain of The Black Hole, the 1979 Disney sci-fi film, and a black-robed cyborg slave wearing a metallic face covering on his left. Reinhardt is wearing a red military-style uniform and medal around his neck, and he has a glorious head of hair, a thick grey and black beard, and an exhausted but maniacal look in his eyes. He’d actually be a great gay Halloween costume.

In honor of Rapture Day, please enjoy this photo of David Duchovny in the 1991 film The Rapture (which is really underrated but I was too young to see at 14)
David Duchovny circa 1991, with shoulder-length hair and a searching look on his face, is hot and shirtless in the movie The Rapture. His nudity in this is less formative than The Red Speedo Moment, but it's still very important.

Post a team you would send instead of Bongino and Patel
Mark Borchardt and Mike Schank, the stars of American Movie, looking cool as hell in front of a pile of trash. They’re actually way too good for this joke, so apologies to Mike’s memory. Now that I’m thinking about it, the guys who were the convicts in Making a Murderer would actually be a better duo than Bongino and Patel.

The brilliant @kermichele.bsky.social was one of the Times’ Books We Love!!!

(As long as the paper covers good art with a good eye, I will not write the whole thing off. Arts editors are essential, and this book is fucking fantastic!)

Today in deeply confusing DVD film bundles
A photo for a WB 3-film collection 2-disc set. The films are Watchmen (the one with the most offensive use of Leonard Cohen's "Hallelujah" in all of cinema), Sucker Punch, and...David Cronenberg's A History of Violence

I feel like my picks make it really obvious that I was 19 and living a five-minute walk from a video store in the early 2000s

Everything is bad and I wish I could go back to bed, but I got my Mulholland Drive tattoo last night and thinks it’s pretty fantastic

It is Rosa Luxembark’s 11th birthday today! Since the start of 2025, she has had two surgeries and made multiple cross-country trips with me. She deserves the world.
A corgi sits and waits excitedly for a birthday pup cake with pink frosting and a paw print in black decorative icing. The corgi, Rosa Luxembark, has a tan face with a thin white stripe between her eyes, a white cap on her muzzle, and white neck fluff. She is wearing a white and blue striped bandana and sitting on an area rug.

Even the faeries want to abolish ICE
A tree stump is covered in colorful toys, runes, bracelets, and rubber ducks. A small door is nestled into the side of the stump, for the faeries and gnomes. Someone has used lettered dice to spell ABOLISH ICE on the stump.

Ready for a plane ride.
Rosa Luxembark, a tan and white corgi in a teal and black onesie, sits on a concrete balcony and smiles derpily. She hasn’t even taken her doggie Xanax yet, she’s just a derp!

I’m really glad I saved so many old issues of @theonion.com

Solidarity and love from Madison, where Rosa Luxembark is still waiting on results from her own lump removal yesterday.
Rosa Luxembark, a 10-year old corgi, wears a green, white, and black camo onesie while staring at the camera. She is very stoned after surgery to remove a large lipoma.

Rosa Luxembark is worried about the general mental health.
Rosa Luxembark, an 11-year old corgi, looks around a teal chair, her white paws peeking out. Rosa wants you to take care of yourself. She is getting surgery in a few days, but she is more concerned about whether you might like to pet her, play fetch, or give a treat.

I finally found a 30 Rock joke that didn't come true: I bought a couch that was made in America, and it's great.

This guy in Madison not only made a giant middle finger head, he used thematically appropriate materials for the paper mache.
