I wonder if I can watch Canada vs Switzerland women’s hockey in Italian instead of in English. Just heard the rink announcer in Italian between periods.

Tom Hagan was probably his best-known role, but I really loved his pissy detective character in "Falling Down," with Michael Douglas.

Just canceled my subscription, which would've renewed for a year in early August at $170/year (vs the reasonable $33 I paid for a year last summer). I still get to read it until then if I want, but I'm also going to cancel my e-mail subscriptions.

February 4th is World Cancer Day. When you have a cancer diagnosis and are still alive, you get to consider yourself a cancer survivor. I am a cancer survivor. Even better, I still appear to be cancer free. #FuckCancer

We at the @postguild.bsky.social are raising money for the hundreds of journalists the Post just laid off. This goes to the people who are hurting, not the Post. Or if you'd rather, go subscribe to an independent journalist. Support is hugely appreciated.

You know we always kick off with the Statue of Liberty.

This is especially relevant this year, when we're pretending that fascism against immigrants is a new low for the US, by ignoring fascism against Black people.

the fact that the NRA is offering even this incredibly mild level of resistance is significant.
