Upsetting and disgraceful. Carla Hayden was an amazing Librarian of Congress and ambassador for my profession. I am deeply sad and angry.
Donald Trump just fired my dear friend Dr. Carla Hayden—the Librarian of Congress—via email. This is disgraceful. The Library of Congress represents some of the best America has to offer. Equal access to learning for all.

Library topics, of course, but I could also fill a lot of time on Broadway musicals and retro TV shows. I can do an episode by episode deep dive analysis of The Love Boat and Wings, easily.
What would you talk about for 19 hours?

Libraries. Greedy assholes who charge libraries $60 (and up) for ebooks, my reading history, how to make your reading more diverse.

I loved Wicked part 1 (a lot) but, "Nessa, I must confessa" is still my least favorite musical theater lyric.

Why is Tom Cruise involved in the Olympic flag hand-off? I was really enjoying that part, until then.

This post makes me feel so validated. This movie both bored and terrified me so much as a child and I haven't been able to revisit it since. (And yes, I realize I probably saw it when I was too young to get it)
I'm not saying you should watch the whole "Time Bandits" movie again because it's extremely slow and boring but in case you forgot this is how a CHILDREN'S MOVIE could end in 1981 www.youtube.com/watch?v=QKGb...
Time Bandits - It's evil, don't touch it!

These sort of facts always make me rethink my love for "The Love Boat"
My parents’ friends are on a world cruise with Princess (read: $$, old people) and in 77 days, 10 people have died

MLB, I am begging you:
Let players wear their home uniforms at the All-Star Game.
(Also, these AL uniforms are, uh, something. . . .)

Am I the only one who thinks it's amusing that the Fox Network is the one major network that has counter programming at 10 PM? (Yes, I know Fox Television and Fox News aren't the same thing but I still think it's funny)

This is the most spot on review/description of St. Elmo's Fire.

that new portrait of the king looks like he finally got that wish he told camilla about in that phone call in 1989

This is one of the cutest things I've ever seen.
When magazines were fun (and had money): I was going through a drawer and just found one of the more lunatic things I ever greenlit. These are outtakes from a 1996 Oscars photo shoot we did at Entertainment Weekly--one if Babe won an Oscar, one if it didn't.

Everytime I'm easily able to buy toilet paper, I realize that yes, I am better off than I was 4 years ago.

This may be my favorite conspiracy theory regarding Kate Middleton.
Kate Middleton is in Cabot Cove visiting her great-aunt Jessica. She's been arrested for the murder of a greedy land developer, so just give Mrs. Fletcher some time to prove her innocence and she'll be back to England soon.
