I really hate GAP for making me root for them for this commercial, which I've seen at least 50 times this week. Goddamn it.

Our freedoms aren't free which I guess is why the GOP wants the poor and working class to pay for them? #TrumpsTrillionsTransfer

A simple pleasure - waking up early to watch a #silentfilm at the start of the #TCM daily schedule.

If you're an author, I highly recommend narrating your own books. First, it feels like you're telling your story which really gets me engaged in the book. Second, you know how to pronounce any unusual names or places correctly!

Well played, #TCM.

My current House rep (NC14) is Jeff Jackson. And while my new rep is some guy who attempted to cheat his way into a House seat a few years ago, Jeff will be our NC AG! He's not on Bluesky (yet) but here's his last newsletter to his constituents. open.substack.com/pub/jeffjack...

I found Babylon (2022) too exhausting to watch. Turned it off after struggling through the first 45 minutes. I think there are parallels with Boogie Nights (1997) - language, nudity, depictions of violence. In Boogie Nights, those elements propelled the story forward. 1/

A friend is interested in exploring #silentfilms. I suggested a few later Buster Keaton films (natch') because I think they're timeless, really funny and family friendly. What 3 silent films would you recommend for someone who's never seen one?

Watched The Toll of the Sea (1922) last night. I was struck not only by its color (wow!) but also by Anna May Wong's performance. Her first film at the age of 17. But the musical track was complete garbage. Classical music standards strung together without consideration for the action or emotion. 1/

BREAKING: North Carolina has fired head coach Mack Brown.

Brown said recently he wasn't planning to retire. This is the first Power 4 opening of the coaching carousel, and it's a big one.
