Something is going around BlueSky so now’s as good of a time as any to remind: Kim Mulkey wants you to talk about her peacock outfits. They are clown makeup designed to pull the convo away from what a terrible, hateful, homophobe she is.

PAY THEM WHAT YOU OWE THEM

We saw Ragtime at the Lincoln Center tonight. Y’all should get to it if it’s at all feasible.

I’ve seen A LOT of really amazing theatre in my life but I’ve never before seen a mid-Act I standing ovation.

At the Vivian Beaumont at the Lincoln Theater and there are real honest to goodness coat lockers just outside the theater. For free. Civilization still exists.

Hemingway was once bet that he couldn’t write the world’s happiest short story in just 5 words. He replied,

It’s disconcerting how nice the new terminal at LGA is.

Hanging out with the cool kids this morning: in line for the rope drop for executive hours at Costco

Let’s all focus on what matters. This

SMU, I know you haven’t been in the ACC for long but in a Play 4 Kay game both teams should have on a little pink. At least pink shoes, come on.

It’s currently 40 degrees in Durham. This is the first time I’ve been in temps above freezing since like mid-January. Feels so nice.

Hell yeah, Duke women’s basketball!!

Heck of a win over Louisville!

I don’t really talk about my job on here but I just spent the last 2 day working in a building I helped design and that’s cool as heck.

I was baptized in the Methodist church at 13 and it was just a sprinkle of water. If you don’t want to be dunked options are available.

We left at intermission when we saw it a few years ago. The whole show is a poorly executed Hee Haw joke. Weather did you a favor there.

Just showed @marbenais.bsky.social the poster for the new Wuthering Heights movie. Her reaction “they should just remake Gone with the Wind if that’s what they want to do”

I laughed so loudly I turned heads in the restaurant.

Catherine O’Hara Could Do Anything And she pretty much did everything. The only tragedy is that it feels like she was just beginning to get the recognition her decades-long career always deserved.

For The Ringer, I wrote about how amazing it was that the brilliant Catherine O'Hara finally became a superstar in her 60s, and how sad it is that she was taken from us just when we had all finally begun to appreciate her:

27 points in an 8 minute quarter ?!?!

Here's every bucket from Marina Mabrey's 1st quarter inferno at Unrivaled Philadelphia.

Chef outscored Rose BC by herself 🤯🤯🤯

#WBB #UnrivaledBasketball

Marina, this is so rude to do to your future sister in law

Mabrey is on an all time kind of game. My goodness. 27 points in the first quarter.

Grew up watching the men fill up this arena, now the city of Philadelphia is showing up - SOLD OUT - for her. I fucking love women’s sports.

#unrivaled

I know some people traveled so I wasn’t sure.

They did have some better than on the website merch but I didn’t want to miss the game to buy things.

It was sooooo good.

Also I have made a Philly stadium food discovery:
You can and should dip your roast pork in the cheese sauce that comes with Chickie’s & Pete’s fries

Are you here too?

We’re at Unrivaled in Philly. And women’s sports fans desire for good merch outstrips the opportunities to buy merch

I miss it

Look. We got at least 16” of snow and then some sleet, too, today. It’s a lot. I get that it’s so much more work to shovel twice the sidewalk length PLUS the mounds of snow left by the plows to do the curbcuts.

But you chose to buy the corner lot house, you have to do the work.

Third shovel of the day complete. Snow is up over the pup’s chest so we are also those people who shovel a patch of the yard for the puppy.
