Okay. I had a blind date with Fisher. Spent the day together. She told me something about Simon I never forgot. That in every successful relationship there is a flower and a gardener. But as she and Paul were both flowers, nobody was able to bloom.

There Is No Mary Problem in ‘It’s a Wonderful Life’ George’s vision of his wife without him is essential to the film, but critics continue to miss its true—and profound—meaning.

Yes.

BREAKING: 60 Minutes Correspondent Says Trump Story Was Spiked For Political Reasons In an email to her colleagues, Sharyn Alfonsi said that CBS News Editor in Chief Bari Weiss spiked a story about the Trump administration and El Salvador prisons for political reasons.

This email from Sharyn Alfonsi to her colleagues after Bari Weiss killed their @60minutes.bsky.social piece on CECOT is powerful and worth a full read. (h/t @yasharali.bsky.social)

Not sure why this garbage showed up on my feed, but given Weiss's spiking of the Cecot story on 60 Minutes tonight? The timing works.

I agree. Either he didn't disclose it to his editors either and this is a colossal violation of conflict-of-interest rules, or he did, in which case someone has a monumental amount of explaining to do.

One of the great failures of contemporary political news coverage in a lot of media is the unspoken principle that no violation of norms or decency by Trump is really news, worthy of sustained attention, unless it also upsets people who love him. It isn't "not taking the bait"; it's sleepwalking.

I wrote a script for Rob and spent a lot of time with him over the course of a year. Watching Michael Moore movies at his house. The annual August clambake.

More than anything else, most of all, he was thoughtful, generous, and kind. A mensch in every sense of the word.

I was hoping that the big cliffhanger in the much lauded show that I’m having trouble lauding wasn’t “Soylent Green is people” but it was and I guess I’ll have to deal with that.

Given what he’s done to CBS News there’s a pretty good case to be made that he shouldn’t be allowed anywhere near CNN.

Feels weird to say, but Netflix is the least bad of three bad options when it comes to buying WB.

Supporting Supreme Court expansion is pretty close to a litmus test for me for a 2028 Democratic candidate.

This is a photo of a paperback copy of The Atrocities by me (Jeremy C. Shipp). The cover features a creepy old manor house, storm clouds, and a hedge maze. The book is against a brick wall with vines growing around and over the book.

Hey Bluesky peeps, could you help spread the word?

My Shirley Jackson Award-nominated gothic fiction book THE ATROCITIES is on sale today for $1.99 on Kindle. I have no idea how long this sale will last.

Headline: SAVED BY STOPPARD
Sir, In 1993 my wife and I went to see the first production of Arcadia by Tom Stoppard (obituary, Dec 1), and in the interval I experienced a Damascene conversion. As a clinical scientist I was trying to understand the enigma of the behaviour of breast cancer, the assumption being that it grew in a linear trajectory spitting off metastases on its way. In the first act of Arcadia, Thomasina asks her tutor, Septimus: “If there is an equation for a curve like a bell, there must be an equation for one like a bluebell, and if a bluebell, why not a rose?” With that Stoppard explains chaos theory, which better explains the behaviour of breast cancer. At the point of diagnosis, the cancer must have already scattered cancer cells into the circulation that nest latent in distant organs. The consequence of that hypothesis was the birth of “adjuvant systemic chemotherapy”, and rapidly we saw a striking fall of the curve that illustrated patients’ survival.

Stoppard never learnt how many lives he saved by writing Arcadia.
