Well said by Adam Gopnik in the @newyorker.com. Assuming the Big Beautiful Ballroom even gets built, I look forward to the day it gets torn down.

I love Pasadena. I love L.A. I love this country. #nokings

Helping make this podcast that I think is pretty good.

Since most of the recent news about my employers Wondery has been about layoffs, I thought I’d take this opportunity to let everyone know that: a) I’m still here, and b) I still have a new podcast to promote! And yes, it looks like we get to keep making it. So I’m feeling very fortunate.

We said goodbye to Gabi today, our Halloween kitty. She was the loudest cat I’ve ever lived with. She never met a finger she wouldn’t bite. In her senior years, she developed hyperthyroidism and a taste for people food, which she could root out of any sealed container with ruthless efficiency.

I’m not great with the whole self-promotion thing so I’ll just say I got to work with a lot of insanely talented people on this new podcast about the climate crisis and if you’re nice person who cares about the planet you maybe might wanna check it out.

Can someone check and make sure Google Search is doing OK?

I’m a coastal elite on my first visit to the Deep South. Ask me anything.

I wonder if people’s response early on to Hitler was “You know what would fix all this? Taxing that dude more.”

This is what my version of a Mental Health Day looks like.

It’s surreal how much the media is still tiptoeing around this stuff. “Odd-looking salute”? Seriously?

Wasn’t planning to begin 2025 flat on my ass with a strained lower back. But on the plus side, Tallulah has been a very good nurse.

This is pretty much how I’m spending my holidays.

Should I just make my feed all cat pics? This is Harper by the way.

What’s up, Bluesky? I know my first post on a new social media platform should be something clever and/or revealing, but…honestly, I just hope people on here are nice.

Also, here’s a pic of Tallulah, one of our three cats.
