The YouTube algorithm feels a bit aggressive these days. I don’t need EVERY recommended new video to be about the The Beatles Anthology rerelease

Krista: What’s your favorite type of cookie?

Me: Assorted.

I’m not saying I’ve matured as human being but I am glad I’ve managed my mental health issues enough these days that I no longer feel like the sun mocks me.

Good news

I don’t know how this terrestrial mollusk made it into the house. Lighting quickness has been ruled out.

The Casual Cruelty of the “Flipping the Camera” Trend A popular TikTok trend has many users questioning its fairness.

Wow. An entire generation that hates cinematographers.

Casual reminder that the myth of “pulling yourself up by your bootstraps” is a cruel hoax designed to convince poor people from all walks of life that the injustices they face are a result of their own actions, rather than an oppressive system rigged against them.

This morning @kristaawad texted to tell me we can scare away hawks from our roof by putting a fake owl out there. And I finally got to use this classic meme for once in my life.

Ah yes “fit”. I don’t believe it’s fashionable enough to be referred to as “drip”

I dunno, man. I’ve gone into Ralph’s 3 times this week and every time I go in someone compliments my outfit. Here’s the thing, I’ve been wearing the same outfit all week.

During the Criterion half-off sale last summer I went to a few B&Ns all over LA and struck out trying to find Menace II Society on 4k. So when I heard there was another sale starting today well, I finally got to bring it home.

Just Andy.

As many of you know, I am NOT a movie studio executive. But if I were, I would at least TRY putting narration back into movie trailers.

Early morning warm wind in Los Angeles.

Bluesky changed the look of its app icon. Things must be going well.

Arthur Brand, world renowned art crime detective, referred to today’s heist at the Louvre as the “theft of the decade”. This is the third decade of this century. How many art burglaries have been happening that limits this to the “theft of the decade”?

Last night I dreamt I worked at a movie store and Marc Maron came in to buy The Ten Commandments on DVD and I tried to convince him the HDR on the 4k Blu-ray was incredible. I don’t know what’s going on with me these days.

Finally got to the movie house to see One Battle After Another. Now that’s how ya make a f**king motion picture!

Even through all the strong anti-communist sentiment of the 20th century in the U.S., the Cincinnati baseball team never changed their name.

Sekiro is too hard for me. I feel like if I admit that publicly I can move on to enjoying my life.

The good news: I got my tix to see One Battle After Another
The bad news: It’s not til October 11th.
The good news: It’s presented in actual Vistavision

When people hyperbolically say Tom Cruise saved the film industry, they are usually referring to the success of Top Gun: Maverick. However, in my brain and heart I know it’s when he made this PSA about motion smoothing on TVs.

My Uber driver this morning, an elderly European man named Kerob. Pulled a sopranino recorder out of his glove box and proceeded to playing the most delightful rendition of Mozart’s Turkish March. This is how I justify the cost of living in Los Angeles

Wishing everyone a wonderful Autumnal Equinox!!!

I dunno. Prolly.

Whenever people ask me why I stay in Los Angeles, this is always one of my top 10 reasons.

Poll: is it a funnier gag to have me writing with a quill pen OR me writing with a crappy bic pen with a giant feather duct taped to it?
