It's October 9th, what would have been John Lennon's 86h birthday (how is that possible?), and in honor of the occasion I'm happy to once again tell the tale of my two encounters with my rock and roll hero. www.jmdematteis.com/2026/10/lenn...

Please know that this is one of my few legitimate areas of actual, high-level professional expertise: Kicking the healthiest people off of a health insurance program will bankrupt it. Not 'could;' not 'might,' not 'probably," but absolutely will, with mathematical certainty.
Dr Oz says the Trump administration will kick more than a million people off health insurance because some of them have "never filed a claim"

Make your favorite film sound as boring as possible without giving away the title: Former college professors start small business.

I love Kathryn's writing and am excited for this even though I have avoided watching Bluey (saving it in case I ever end up in a Big Daddy situation where I have to care for a child all of a sudden).
I am really, really, really, REALLY excited to be able to share the cover of my book, as well a link so you can preorder it for when it comes out in April. Look at the ears!!!! wwnorton.com/books/978132...

I am not a U.S. citizen. I got jury duty notice from Philly a couple times. The postcard instructs you to take an online questionnaire, which asks if you are a U.S. citizen. After you say “no” you are told you are ineligible for jury duty. That’s why it’s in the “non-juror” records.
Lots of non-citizens are on the jury pool in Philly because they use DMV records and local tax payments to build their master list. (They get out of jury duty by simply notifying the court they aren't citizens.) This man isn't dumb. He's a con artist.

Couldn't be prouder of the five we made, but I had at least two seasons more in me. Wanted to hit up the Delta and Gamma quadrants. One more Vindicta holodeck movie. Meet a weirdly nice leftover Weyoun, more stories with the whales and Kayshon, T'Lyn and Ensign Olly. Lots of stuff.
I know many Trekkies lament Lower Decks ending. But 5 seasons is actually a pretty good run isn't it? That's more than the original series!

Love it: the night after he was kicked off of CBS for good, Stephen Colbert hosted a public access show in southeast Michigan.

PS The netflix series that I worked on had its characters sing "Where in the World is Carmen Sandiego" as an easter egg in the interactive special and it took all of my self-control not to break my NDA when people complained that the show had no rockapella www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z44o...

Opportunity for The Pitt Season 3? pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/37587921/
Pittsburgh Zoo & Aquarium is set to trade gorillas with Boston’s Franklin Park Zoo. Frankie, Pittsburgh’s 7-year-old male western lowland gorilla, will head to Boston, and in exchange, Boston will send 33-year-old Little Joe the silverback @triblive.bsky.social 🦍
Star Trek IV. Chris Pine Kirk and Zachary Quinto Spock go back in time to get humpbacks to save Earth from the alien probe but end up in 1986 before the timeline diverged so they have to avoid their other selves in the original movie Back to the Future 2/Trials and Tribble-ations style.
