Aaron Judge should have to play for another country to make it interesting.

Hahahaha

I left them and they still desperately text me wanting to refill old prescriptions.

Welp, I could end up in prison for life, but my buddy swears these guys are the best.

Reminds me of the parents’ apartment in Clockwork Orange.

Love the avocado appliances.

Why Is Paramount Hiring So Many Men With Troubled Pasts? Paramount has hit a trend of hiring men with pasts that involve misconduct, from Max Landis and Brett Ratner to Johnny Depp and John Lasseter.

Between 60 Minutes and this, Paramount’s new owners have already shown us everything we need to know about them.

Today I found a quarter with adorable bats on it. Which state is pimpin’ their winged mammal population? Why it’s unincorporated U.S. territory American Samoa! I’m gonna use mine to get 7 minutes on a parking meter on Ventura Blvd.

What to do, what to do

Today I learned the first weinermobile was in 1936. It could have been sent on a mission to kill Hitler.

God bless the little weird buildings with names of Los Angeles.

YouTube video by Johnny McBride Captain Tennille with Neil Sedaka Love will Keep Us Together

RIP Neil Sedaka who wrote this gem for himself, but it took Captain & Tennille to make it a classic. Is he singing higher than Tennille?

I didn’t get Last Year at Marienbad one whit in high school. Loved it as an adult. It’s like Kubrick plus Hitchcock plus perfume commercials (Channel did costumes). It’s as vague as I remember, but much easier to track if you’re into literary fiction and sci-fi. A must see for free on Kanopy.

Dog unemployment has reached 98%

In hindsight, it was a mistake to bring my family to Murder Island

Finished this wild, twist-filled 40s novella and am now firing up Last Year at Marienbad on Kanopy. Apparently Morel inspired it. Both book and movie were free with a library card.

if someone made an Al that took the wealth of billionaires, it'd be outlawed immediately

Not looking forward to canceling HBO, but I’ll do it.

Chapter 1 of Moby Dick, page 1 The phrase ‘Call me Ishmael’, the first sentence of the book, is highlighted in blue, with careful highlighting on the very big C at the start. Above this, written in ballpoint pen ‘His name’

Love the glimpse into the beautiful mind that notated this used copy of Moby Dick I got

The arty ones will remain (wider). Only the skinny mass market ones (pocket sized) are going bye bye. I used to have a ton of them before I learned I have a mold allergy. Then all my yellowing spy and detective novels had to hit the road.

Tragic. Especially since a lot of young people like books on paper.

This was the inside cover. Mass market paperbacks kept me reading in the Summer. Sad to see them go.

I don’t read on paper anymore (need that big ole Kindle font size), but I will pour one out tonight for the death of mass-market paperbacks in America. Horror novels in particular had terrific covers in the 70s and 80s. Never forget the scares in this one I read in elementary school.
