Life of Chuck was an amazing film. Another great exploration of the universe and the meaning of life directed by Mike Flanagan. Thank you @markhamillofficial.bsky.social for a poignant character portrayal. It was a perfect way to spend a Saturday night and left me feeling hopeful.

🐻 With Season 4 of The Bear up next week, we thought back to the first time the show used any R.E.M. music when it was just a word of mouth sensation (“have you seen it… it’s really good”), Season 1, "Oh My Heart” in a beautiful scene— “it’s sweet & it’s sad & it’s true…."

I was in Washington D.C. today, where I tripped on the sidewalk, tore my pants, and bloodied my knee. I appealed for help from a security guard in front of the EPA building. She helped me out with some alcohol wipes and bandages. There are still helpers out there in the world. Thanks EPA lady ❤️

Thank you Senator Cory Booker. This guy truly cares about the people he represents.
