“He’s only the next Martin Scoreseeze,” is a great line. #singles

Re-watching Singles for the first time since I watched in Levittown in ‘92. I’m having the flashback opinion that Campbell Scott and Kyrie Sedgewick are my least favorite characters.

What the fuck @criterionchannel.bsky.social? I don’t have the kind of time you demand of me.

So you’re saying I should do it 🤔😁

I deep-dived The Stand recently, following along with @talkscaredpod.bsky.social and now I’m reading Swan Song. Again I am considering a PhD in literature of apocalypse. I would need my dissertation to be a comic.

The real present from my birthday party was the clogged toilet.

Looking at the NY sports landscape, the success the Yankees have had compared to other teams is clearly the result of deals with devils and sacrifices of virgin ballboys.

I have to plan my week which is difficult because I hate my job.

I watched it with my family for my birthday. @drewmcweeny.com and @crobertcargill.bsky.social, thanks for the recommendation, fellas.

I can’t recommend The Hip Pocket enough.

@drewmcweeny.com has a podcast called The Hip Pocket. He and @crobertcargill.bsky.social recommended Hellzapoppin (linked below). What a blast! So funny and inventive. It was a great movie I never heard of.

I’ve never watched all of Top Gun. Not my thing.

Still procrastinating.

The finest moment is when Comey holds back a tear and says “But her emails, amiright?”

This is very exciting.

Not resubscribing.

Some shitbird pulled the fire alarm in my building. Kids freaked out. It has been a terrible day.

All chairs have been removed from DGA headquarters.

This flick is legit. It’s in my Top 3 Redford films.

I didn’t see a red light until I reached the airport and no one is on the road. Have you all been Raptured?

The collapse of democracy doesn’t mean I don’t have to put together a Math test.

I want to watch Sneakers tonight.

I have no idea why I thought I needed to be up this early.

Read some media criticism. Back to Elfquest.

“They’ve taken the most incredibly potent medium of imparting information the world has ever known, and they’ve turned it against you. To burn out your brains.”

He was talking about TV, but it works for the internet.

Time will cull these old paperbacks. 😢

My copy of The Glass Teat has turned to dust.

There is so much silly business in every frame of Altman’s Popeye. I love it.

X meant porn by the time I was a teen. Midnight Cowboy was about a decade old.

The advent of the multiplex made sneaking around easier. I often forget how crazy it felt when the local theater divided into 2 screens.

In England, my nephew needed ID to see Deadpool/Wolverine even though he was with me. I was stunned.

That’s true. I can’t always put myself in 70s head and remember the value of a strange title. I really enjoyed the movie and she was phenomenal.
I don’t remember it being hard to sneak into R movies in the 80s, but…
