Something that continues to bother me is that del Toro used so little of Mary Shelley's writing but then includes the entirety of a Percy Shelley poem and ends with a Lord Byron quote.
I know why but there's a long and dishonorable tradition of the men in Mary's life overshadow her. The gall!

This is the first I've heard of it and now I'm sad.

I don't think I liked anything about it.

I had to take a break after 90 minutes but I wanted to see how dumb it would get by the end. Del Toro is just not my guy; I don't like his style or his substance.

I love Mary Shelly's Frankenstein but I've never more than liked any Guerillmo del Toro movies. Unfortunately, del Toro's Frankenstein is just one of his movies.

I'm 40 minutes in and it's gonna be a slog to try and finish this...

A map of Jamaica focused on the town of Oracabessa, Oracabessa Bay and James Bond Beach.

Or maybe Jamaica's Oracabessa Bay?

I didn't realize the Toxic Avenger already came out. I'm anxious to hear your take

This was their chance to make that case.

Had they stuck to it, they could have all made ads saying, β€œWhen Trump tried to double your healthcare premiums, we fought, and we won. And if you vote for us, we’ll do the same on groceries, housing, and utility bills.”

And even Excalibur. That was a good year. I guess I should read Kings in Disguise!

Some years seem like tough decisions and others are a few things I've never heard of.

Thank you, Speaker Emerita Pelosi, for your decades of service that defined a generation of politics and for doing something truly rare in Washington: making room for the next one.

When Wiener announced he was running after previously saying he wouldn't challenge Pelosi, it was just a matter of time before she dropped out. The establishment machine coordinated hoping Wiener wouldn't lose more ground to @saikatforcongress.bsky.social's progressive campaign

I never saw the movie but I've never forgotten a review that started, "Stanley Kubrick made Barry Lyndon because he thought Vanity Fair was too complicated to adapt but these people decided to give it a try."

Back in the day, racists similarly didn't want Alaska and Hawai'i to become states worried theit representatives would support civil rights.

Scene from The Simpsons. An assassin looks at a photo of Grandpa Simpson eating Del Monte peas and says (altered for context), "Ah, Del Monte. Enjoy them, Old Man. They will be your 9,998th to last."

I decided on a Halloween costume last week and thought I needed mutton chops. Since I'd look silly growing those, I grew a beard. Yesterday, two coworkers with beards got excited that I had one too and seemed a little hurt that I was planning to shave off what I didn't need today.

The Trump administration’s lawlessness cannot be ignored.

Period.

SF-Marin Food Bank

Ahead of the inhumane SNAP shutdown, I donated to my local food bank which has a dollar-for-dollar match today. It doesn't take much to have an impact.

He didn't even get a tattoo of his own ape. If you don't believe in your own ape, who will?

@mehdirhasan asked me how I differ from Scott Wiener, who recently entered this race. Here’s my answer.
