Dustin better darn well be okay! 😥 Also, oh no, Holly! (Mike's conversation with her was sweet.)

Hadn't actually ever watched Planes, Trains, & Automobiles before today.

Really enjoyed it, though our family agreed we've had enough travel "adventures" in our lives that it's genuinely stressful to watch, too!

The problem with rewatching episodes of #TheWestWing is that too many of the storylines should be out of date. But they are not. In fact, for many of them, we're no better off than we were 25 years ago.

Sigh.

It hasn't even been twelve hours, but all three of us have been overwhelmed with requests from media for comment and I'm mostly writing this now so they'll leave me alone.
this is such a painful loss. my heart is broken.

My God. Just saw the news about Rob Reiner and his wife. He directed my very favorite movie in the entire world.
💔
How awful.

Well, #WakeUpDeadMan is a triumph. Highly, highly recommended.

Movies watched on the flight to the US: Thunderbolts*, Elio, part of War of the Rohirrim, and Flow.
Reviews: Thunderbolts* was quite enjoyable, tho I wished I'd seen Cpt America: Brave New World first. Elio was excellent. War of the Rohirrim was dull, though pretty, so I didn't finish. Flow: good!

I don't know what it's called in Korean, because I don't speak or read Korean, but I do know the noodles with brisket (and a side of kimchi and steamed bao) that I had for breakfast at the Seoul-Incheon airport food court this morning was amaaaaazing. 😋

Belated happy Thanksgiving! (Oddly enough, it's not a holiday over here, so we waited until the weekend to celebrate.) Relieved to share that our pumpkin pies did, in fact, turn out delicious, as did all the other food that we and our friends made to share. 😋

Saw #WickedForGood today. Despite the relatively mixed reviews, I loved it! Great performances, great costumes, beautiful visuals. "For Good" itself made me cry, especially given all the transitions that I'll be going through soon.

Really pleased to find that, on rewatch, s3 of #StarTrekSNW holds up much better. Sure, it's still not as strong as s2, but it's still GOOD!

C'mon now! If you can't pick him up, at least crouch down and give him a big ol' hug! 😍😔 Don't break his heart like that!
This is Fendi. He is seen here demonstrating the internationally acknowledged sign language for politely requesting uppies. 13/10 would pick him up immediately (TT: isthat_jojo)

😍 I just love him. And what a good cause!
So much fun was had last weekend at THUNDERGONG! (a benefit for Steps of Faith Foundation supporting amputees in need). Thanks to Jason Sudeikis, Will Forte, Sam Richardson, Brendan Hunt, Cristo Fernández, and the many other talented and generous people who made it all possible.

spoke with the executive director of my local food bank today and got this really incredible line: "if you donate 1 can of green beans, we can give away 1 can of green beans. but if you donate a dollar, we can give away 6 cans of green beans"

Really wish I had gotten a better shot of this but holding a phone that says “who else was just ‘following orders’?” up to a riot cop is hard as hell

This is Oakley. He has an injury that requires physical therapy and at-home massages. Luckily, his cat sibling River has been training his whole life for this. 14/10 for both

8 November 1942 | A transport of some 1,000 Polish Jews - men, women, and children - deported from ghettos in Ciechanów region (part of German-occupied Poland annexed to the Third Reich).

After the arrival selection, all of them were murdered in gas chambers.
