With many beloved icons leaving us, Roger Michell’s TEA WITH THE DAMES is cementing itself as a proper historical - and hysterically witty - document. He (RIP) captured this funny moment between pals Judi Dench, Maggie Smith (RIP) and Joan Plowright (#RIPJoanPlowright ).

Landed at my doorstep today, a piece of someone’s life gone in Los Angeles. Totally heartbreaking.

Sometimes on Too Good To Go restaurants will sell u bulk prepped produce which u can even freeze. It really is the best app if u live in a major city bc u can get some real luxury food items for just a few dollars! I don't think it's as good in small cities bc the only ones doing it are like Panera

God bless Jimmy Carter. For his and his family’s sake, I am grateful that he passed while Joe Biden was still president. He will have an appropriate, dignified, and heartfelt national memorial service—perhaps the last of its kind. As was he.

God speed, Mr. Carter.

The much-missed Jonathan Demme's documentary "Jimmy Carter: Man From Plains" is streaming on Amazon, if anybody is interested in such things.

When Jim Banner recruited me for the updated Presidential Misconduct collection, I was busy finishing Fault Lines and joked that I could only handle a light load, so I’d do Carter.

But I found he was, if anything, *too* ethical, bending over backward to be transparent. Seems a world away from us.

Map from ClimateToolbox.org depicting season to date precipitation anomaly ranks across California. Northern California is much wetter than the long-term average (locally near record-wet), and Southern California is much drier than average (locally record-dry).

As the new year approaches, the already remarkable season-to-date "precipitation dipole" in California has further intensified. Much of SoCal has still not received meaningful rain this season, while NorCal continues to get soaked on a recurring basis. #CAwx #CAwater #CAfire

THE AMERICAN QUESTION - Review | #GetThatMovie by HSC YouTube video by Hoy Sale Cine

In his 9/10 review, Rotten Tomatoes critic Ale Turdó says “The American Question's cautionary exposé on America's increasing divisions excels at pointing out some of the countries most worrying issues. But it also goes the extra mile to try finding some realistic solutions.” youtu.be/2qbg8BqbF-E?...

Moving the DNC to Youngstown is a silly idea. But opening a secondary HQ in another major city—like Chicago or Minneapolis—makes sense to me. It would get more operatives out of DC and make it easier to recruit and retain top talent.

Trump and His Picks Threaten More Lawsuits Over Critical Coverage The small flurry of threatened defamation suits is the latest sign that the incoming Trump administration appears poised to do what it can to crack down on unfavorable media coverage.

it has always been a long reaction to the New Deal. from then to now, capital had seen the New Deal as the sin that must be purged so that the rest of us understand our place as grist for their mills
