Absolutely loved Kentucky legend S.D. House’s new book. A 1950s murder mystery set in a lake town on the KY-TN border (I.e. where I grew up), it feels built to hit for me….and boy did it. Check it out, yall.

@joanwalsh.bsky.social. But instead, Schumer has agreed to go along with the Republican’s funding bill to avert a government shutdown.

When Will the Senate Democrats Ever Learn?
Leader Chuck Schumer has thrown up his hands and said he will oppose a GOP-triggered government shutdown. That means he’s supporting the GOP’s cruel government paralysis.

Wow. Bishop Mariann Edgar Budde fearlessly calls out Trump and Vance to their faces. This is heroic.

It’s not often I get messages about my 1997 film DEAR JESSE. But I got one today. I have a guess as to why.
