we are at last in Famous Blue Raincoat season. Time to get out the good stationary and write letters to the estranged Scientologists in your life
Leonard Cohen's "Famous Blue Raincoat" is the best holiday song: it takes place at the end of December, the time of year you really get down to writing passive-aggressive letters to lapsed loved ones

I watched TWELFTH NIGHT on PBS's GREAT PERFORMANCES.
A ★★★★★ review of Twelfth Night (2025)
One of the slicker and more entertaining TWELFTH NIGHTs I've seen. Excellently cast in every role and produced in a way that draws out the comedy.

Putting a horror guy and a romance guy in a barricaded metal room that includes a bed and weapons, in order to see if they kill each other, or fall in love first. Finally determing which is the superior genre

Statler: Many that live deserve death. And some that die deserve life. Can you give it to them? Then do not be too eager to deal out death in judgement.

Waldorf: No, but I'm judging your choice in opera attire.

Both: OH HO HO HO HO HO
Most of Gandalf's lines also work if spoken in the voice of Statler or Waldorf.

Was chatting w/ a friend from Western Mass today and got thrown when she kept referring to her doctor as "they." I assumed nonbinary doctor until I realized this was a Boston They. I forgot that ppl from western mass do not specify the gender of anyone who is not immediate family, spouse, or BFF

If you’re in the market for a low effort New Year’s resolution, can I suggest “removing ‘content’ and ‘content creator’ from your vocabulary”? The artists and entertainers you’re referring to deserve better, even and especially if you’re using it to refer to yourself and your work

A catty editorial in a Harvard student paper saying that the one virtue of their new student center was that it was the one place on campus from which one couldn't see the student center.
What's an insult you'll never forget?

Whenever people say “Well the Democrats simply don’t have the power to [fight the GOP/stop Trump/hold ICE agents responsible for their actions” I always hope they will jump to “so we should change the system that causes that reality” but it almost never comes, instead it’s just “So quit asking"

No one says to legit business owners, "hey I see there's an underground market selling toxic knock-offs of your product: how will you incorporate the toxic product AND protect your customers against its harms?" But apparently it's fine to make this suggestion to educators with respect to AI.

North By Northwest is a surprisingly modern movie because it’s about a guy whose explanation for drunk driving is he’s being gangstalked.

The lack of interest in or knowledge of other countries or cultures is not actually a strictly American thing, it's quite noticeable among a lot of Russians, Chinese, and Indians as well. It's Big Country Parochialism.
Its not really that compelling. Im
personally a believer that the US is insular because its about as big in population and size as europe with its own cultural output.

Its not like europeans are famously super knowledgable about other areas
