A middle aged white woman on a landline phone wearing a wool sweater that says “Home Sweet Home” with houses, flowers and teapots on the front. This is Angela Lansbury as Jessica Fletcher in the tv show Murder, She Wrote

A woman exits a trailer wearing a red calf-length skirt, red 3/4 sleeve sweater and red hat. This is Rachel Brosnahan as Midge Maisel on the set of The Marvelous Mrs Maisel

I think I can describe my desired style as both Jessica Fletcher and Midge Maisel and I’m not quite hitting the mark

All of the men’s/women’s common area scenes on Love Is Blind looks like The Sims.

Ain't that the truth!

I'm not sure you can get more marie antoinette than taking away food stamps before thanksgiving while you build a gold and marble dance hall so the other crooks can bring bribe you over a badly-cooked (argentinian) steak

This is what democracy looks like. #NoKings

I think the best case scenario for the NYC Mayoral race is that Zohran wins and Curtis Sliwa gets to be the Grand Marshall of all parades

A pet peeve of mine is actors in TV shows not holding cake boxes level. If there were a real cake in there it would be ruined!

The world is dark right now but it’s beautiful to look around my apartment and realize almost everything decorating its walls and shelves and tables holds a memory. Art made by friends, a boat my grandfather hung on his wall, hand drawn cards. Evidence I’m part of a fabric and not a loose thread.

Do they let kids use rubber cement in school anymore? You don’t hear much about rubber cement anymore and yet it was such a big part of my elementary school memories

The biggest trick Oscar Hammerstein ever pulled is that “Impossible” from Cinderella is just an intro one verse and a chorus over and over again and we all let him get away with it because they’re so good. No second verse necessary.

Look, I don’t think we talk enough in 2025 about what a smoke show Robert Preston was in 1962.

i just know we're all going to have to sit through a three minute clip of joe rogan saying "i can't believe censorship is happening"

when the germans are like “yo rein this shit in” maybe someone should listen

Rewatching “Sex and the City” and the most jarring thing is just how much people smoke inside. I mean there’s definitely fashions and technology that are very 1990s/2000s, but it still feels contemporary. But the smoking inside feels so distant and off-putting even having lived through it.

reminder: when they come for you it won't matter what you *actually* said or did, they don't care about that

White House Plans Broad Crackdown on Liberal Groups

Pretty crazy how "America is a legit, no bullshit fascist country" is now a NYT headline.

When I was 12 my music teacher let me sing “Point of No Return” from The Phantom of the Opera in class. The same year in English class I did a dramatic recitation of “Comfortably Numb” by Pink Floyd where I did a full fake faint at the end. It’s a wonder I wasn’t bullied even more in middle school.

I’m at the watches-nothing-but-hoof-trimming-videos level of stress right now

I couldn’t stop myself, she’s growing up too fast and my cats are growing old too fast. I told her I was crying because of the song, and asked her if she liked Toy Story. She side eyed me and said “Not really.”

Today I was in the back seat next to my niece while my mom drove us all to Savers. My niece asked me to show her pictures of my cats. While watching my 5 y/o niece flip through the pictures, “When She Loved Me” from Toy Story 2 began to play on the radio. And I could not stop myself from crying.

Why is Freddie’s agent participating in Cold War prisoner trade negations? Who knows!

The Arbiter is my favorite character, he’s just here to make sure you follow the rules!

There are three different scenes where people just sit down and play chess!! Over 10 minutes of this show are people sitting playing chess!! Who decided this!! I love it!!

The Royal Albert Hall concert is the best version of “Chess” because I think every performer just *gets* how fun and silly the show is while giving the dramatic moments the gravity they need. Adam Pascal just gets it!!

The musical “Chess” is nonstop campy bangers and I don’t think we give it enough credit for that.

“The Ministry of Peace concerns itself with war, the Ministry of Truth with lies, the Ministry of Love with torture and the Ministry of Plenty with starvation. These contradictions are not accidental…they are deliberate exercises in doublethink.” Orwell, “1984”

I’m pretty confident I have at least 3 friends who would come to a “Chess in Concert” singalong showing at my house if I asked them, and even if they didn’t know all the words they would still stay a humor me so I guess I’m one of the lucky ones

I know it’s been like 15 years but I genuinely miss when Snapple was in a glass bottle

Funny enough, I go to New York City because I know it's a city where Sean Hannity would get mean looks from people at restaurants.
