I rewatched DBH recently, and Meryl is so much funnier than I remember. She's so over the top in the best way. A great Streep/Hawn pairing!

Congrats!! :)

Congrats!!

This one also just came out, by Kim Magowan. It's delightful in its simplicity. The journey it takes is the reason why I love Flash. Simple moment, wide lens! bendinggenres.com/karens-featu...

Truth!!!

The Saddest Fuckers of All — Ghost Parachute I am needing a prescription for the Pill. I can no longer use Student Health due to living in a new town and not being a student anymore. I am telling this to the kid as he is rolling out pizza dough ...

I'm sure I have several more, but this one really struck me recently: ghostparachute.com/issue/octobe...

It’s #bannedbooksweek. Let’s stand with booksellers and librarians. #bannedbooks @doubledaybooks.bsky.social

I love that shirt!! Library person and proud.

At least something is filming in L.A.

I also remember the mail-order CD clubs fondly... a staple of the early 90s!

I love the build you created within this story, a wonderful read!

Congrats!!

I just saw the trailer for the Bruce Springsteen biopic. Curious, anyone have strong (or not) objections to biopics when the subject is still alive? I feel like we might get a more creative story when someone isn't around and time has passed... Should this be a documentary instead? #filmsky #film

You know, I've never actually paid attention to the score! I usually look at the percentage I'm in. But for this grid, I'm 2554. Based on the Fantasy Picks requests for this cinematrix, I'm going to assume the majority of us have TCM in the background almost all day.

My grandmother was voted "Most likely to be a gay divorcée" in her high school yearbook (in the 40s). She never did divorce, but I think she would have fully embodied the divorcée lifestyle as described here.

Woohoo! Very proud. I passed my Level 2 WSET Wine Studies course with distinction. #wine #education Getting to enjoy the spoils of my beautiful Oregon Willamette Valley Pinot Noir bounty.

Highlighting this fabulous visual history of the film La Bamba. It's gorgeous and insightful (really, the movie stands the test of time). Shout out to my friend Katherine Moore for her great editorial and creative production insights. #film #labamba #photography

Couple more days for @flashfrog.bsky.social’s ghost call! bsky.app/profile/flas...

Prefacing with I don't have kids, but I certainly was an emotional teenager that took everything the wrong way... Maybe a compliment sandwich? Acknowledge something positive, then ask a question, then receive a response, and then back away with a "I love you!"...! Keep us posted, lol

Speaking of gorgeous book covers, I came across this beautiful one at the Sherwood Bookstore. The colors and the simplicity of the design are so intriguing and soothing. I love books that spark my reading interest, but also invite me to hold them because they are a pretty thing. #books

This cover is gorgeous!

Read the book and saw the original in the theater. Feeling dated...

One more thought here, on the movie as a whole: does anyone else wonder why Malynn pretty much forgets about her other two kids, lol?

Yes! She is the emotional core of the film. That scene at the cemetery gets me every single time. Every time, I'm crying with her. But she's also terrific in other scenes as well; it's not just an "Oscar clip" performance.

Sherman is expressing his feelings about the world. #cats

It's a fabulous story!

Yes!! I was also in France (Bordeaux) during my junior year of college. And I agree with Kathleen, you go in with so many expectations of what that year will bring.

Thank you to @nffr.bsky.social for your fantastic canon of flash stories! During the #archivechallenge, I'm thrilled to have discovered new flash writers that I've become big fans of. Keep up the GREAT work! #flashfiction

All of this.
