Friend joy!!! @sonorataylor.bsky.social, it was incredible to see you! Walking through Fells, toasting Poe with Sagamore at the bar he (purportedly) visited the last night before he died, and dinner at Max's. My heart is happy! ❤️

I love the Dropkick Murphys because "Irish-American" + "gen X" + "punk rocker who's been at it for 30 years" should be the formula for the most racist guy alive but instead Ken Casey is constantly giving interviews where he's like "fascists are demons from hell and that's where they belong"

Topics include the new songs, the love scene (😬), and if they should have just made one film instead of two. Also, my 9 year old explains AI to me.

My friend and I rewatched TARZAN (1999) yesterday and it really is a solid flick, often overlooked in the 90s Disney pantheon. Phil Collins also lit every single one of those piano keys on fire when he composed the music. I relistened to the soundtrack, and now I have Jesus He Knows Me on repeat.
