Perhaps other than taking obnoxiously loud calls & not using headphones, there is no public behavior I judge more harshly than this. This is an UWS hair salon but this lady thinks it’s her…living room? (Then again, imagine putting shoes on your living room seating.) Dear god.

Made Turkish kısır for dinner. 😋

Among other categories, THE SECRET AGENT absolutely has to be in the #Oscars conversation for Production Design (Thales Junqueira) & Costumes (Rita Azevedo). What this film pulls off in those departments is a goddamn miracle.

Fellow subway rider Canela, a very cute 10-month-old mutt. Obviously a super good girl. 10/10, love her.

DK why I still bother to explain reasonable things to people who clearly have no use for ideas or logic. I’m not inviting you to pile on anybody—just trust me that the replies under are as bad as you’d imagine, of the “Oh I never read “critics”” variety. (Critics of course in quotation marks.)

WOW. Allow me to explain how ageism (at the intersection pf sexism) actually works most of the time as a woman nearing 50, whose MBA/impeccable pre-journalism résumé is worth nothing (“it was a while ago”), or whose journalism pay expectations are too high (“young people will do it for free”).

Guess 2025 isn’t done taking yet. Rest in peace, Diane Ladd. And deepest condolences to Laura Dern… ♥️🙏🏼

This is ugly as f*ck. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

It’s been over 24 hrs since a car has been parked like this on our block. At least they got a ticket this am. Hopefully the city tows this vehicle soon. (Then again, based on past experiences, it’ll probably take them like five months.)

Timeline cleanse.
Audrey at apple picking this time last year. She showed up in her famous Halloween costume (killer doll Chucky), but we quickly realized the costume contest was yesterday & we got the wrong date. She felt so sorry for herself, but got a tons of pets from everyone & lots of treats.

Becoming impossible to boycott corporate complicity in Trumpism. Everyone yells “cancel Prime.” & yes, every act of protest is meaningful. But will we also cancel Apple, throw away iPhones/Macs, delete Insta, never google anything, switch off T-Mobile etc? & where do you even begin with Comcast?

Okay fine. I’m The Mastermind of the Musée du Louvre jewelry heist. And here’s a necklace that I stole. 💎🤗

I’ll come down to Earth soon. Haven’t quite yet.

A fun before and after. On the left, old and boring bathroom floor tiles. On the right new and charming bathroom floor tiles (work-in-progress).

A career highlight kind of night, moderating a talk on the wonderful IT WAS JUST AN ACCIDENT with Iranian master, Jafar Panahi. ♥️

Celebrating Audrey’s 13th birthday. 💕 Where did the time go? We adopted her when she was a 4-month-old sassy baby. Well, she is still that sassy baby, still here, still strong, still the cutest puppydawg on earth. HAPPY BIRTHDAY AUDREY! Hope you loved your pupcake!💕 🧁🎈💕

(She partied hard, you see.)

Look at this cutie patootie. 🥰

Hat. Blazer. Belt. My modest homage to Diane Keaton today. She can ne-ver be imitated. You can only hope to honor her spirit. ♥️

You know what’s a perfect movie to watch on this October day? BABY BOOM (Charles Shyer, 1987), starring Diane Keaton. 🍎🏡👶🏻🍁🍂
