Went to a production of Cabaret last night, and I wasn’t prepared for it to go so hard. I’d never seen it, didn’t know (or had forgotten) it was based on Isherwood

Nothing like learning your college roommate died last week to get you to start looking up your other college friends you haven’t talked to in years…

Today, at almost the same spot, the noise was the buzz of a drone stuck in a cedar tree, with the owner trying to dislodge it with his trekking poles
Went for a trail run yesterday morning at the state natural area outside of town. First visitor in the park, on the trails before dawn. Didn’t see a soul for miles, very quiet, until I was about seven miles in, and all that silence was broken by the roar of a leaf blower in the distance.

There are many good science fiction novels. Not a single one that I have read delivers a happy vision of the future in which aged right-wing billionaires control the media.

When the trail running race commentator said “master class” I heard “bastard class,” and now I feel compelled to make this a real thing.

@johnpicacio.bsky.social is the amazing artist who designed the Loteria cards that appear in our film and they are available for sale if you’re a fan!
Who designed the tarot cards in the movie? Would love to know the artist and follow their work!

you used to be able to wildly burn the old you at midnight, now you have to sort the fragments so they can be cast into the correct bin at the municipal dump, somehow it's not the same vibe
