Steve isn’t here anymore, but he always posted this picture on Hanukkah so I thought we could carry on his tradition and remember him.
Happy Hanukkah to our friends who celebrate. Rachel Posner, a rabbi’s wife in Kiel, Germany, took this photograph in 1931 -- a potent reminder that fascism must be fought in every generation, even if it's wrapped in an American flag and a red hat.

it is the best scene in the movie and arguably the most important one
Wake Up Dead Man is streaming so I can express more specific thoughts without feeling guilty: there's a Phone Call Scene that starts out as a pretty straightforward frustrating customer-service call, evolves into something transcendent. beautifully acted, almost unbearably lovely. fucked me up bad.
had high hopes for Wake Up Dead Man, and they were exceeded. I feel insanely biased, though, as a lapsed Catholic who loves impeccably crafted locked-room mysteries & murder at the vicarage. imho the funniest, most poignant, and maybe prettiest Benoit Blanc entry yet.

This is my friend's cat. Its name is Cookie Swirl, and it disappeared in the American section of Charlotte airport on 11/10. We're asking for your help. She doesn't have any other socials, so if you can post it widely to see if anyone knows where it is. It's a little thing, but matters a lot to her.

Numerous public libraries — including the LAPL — also offer Kanopy, a streaming service that has an *incredible* number of recent and older movies. It’s a treasure trove. If you live in LA, you can get a library card online and then start streaming.

Looking for an *L.A. based* artist who (against all odds) has time for a poster gig before the end of the year.
It's for a science + art event.
We can offer $500 for the gig.
Dreadfully sorry about the timeline. Link a portfolio if you're interested, I'll delete this post when we found someone.

Got to chat with Sarah Sherman about her very fun and wild new HBO special, getting John Waters to do a cameo, getting punchups from David Spade, and (with the help of Oneohtrix Point Never/Daniel Lopatin) becoming a "noise bro." Oh, and fake pubes, of course. consequence.net/2025/12/sara...
