It feels even worse that we got here without them having to destroy anything. All the books, the photos, the first-hand accounts... they're still there, but those people won't look.

Okay, still catching up, haven't watched Hamnet, but this is poised to be the first year since 2014 that I will have seen all of the acting nominees

I did this one the other day and forgot to post. I think I was in the 800s. Burnt through more than half my guesses.

Just learned that the first Secretary of Defense died falling out of a 16th-story window in 1949.

You can read about these and more in my new book: "Unlike John Tyler and Spiro Agnew, some Vice Presidents Were Pretty Kick-Ass People."

I just hope that the actors they go out to consider whether it's really worth having the public never forgiving them for doing it.

Hannibal Hamlin switched parties just to fight slavery. When Lincoln dumped him in 1864 and Johnson became president, Hamlin got himself re-elected to the senate to fight Reconstruction.

Henry Wallace got booted for being too progressive, and later led an effort to desegregate schools in the 1940s

Saw EPiC yesterday, which was INCREDIBLE.

When the lights came up, an older couple behind us said it was their fifth time seeing it this week and told us that they went to see Elvis during his Vegas residency no fewer than forty times.

They said they planned to return in an hour to see it again.

I keep telling people, yes, it’s definitely dying, which is why the people with all the money are so eager to be a part of it…

The presidential line of succession.

Let's at least flip the house and get a piece on the board.

Oh, okay. Quick question, though. Are you still in touch with this person and can you tell them to get fucked?

Emerald Fennell has got to be a major Peter Greenaway fan, right?
