If you love potatoes like I do, treat yourself to following the marketing boards for different states and get all the recipes!

I also made the mistake of having caffeine late last night and so I stayed up and watched the first episode of Carrie which I have been anticipating because of how much I enjoy Mike Flanagan's work. It was great and unfortunately I won't be able to watch more until probably next week.

I always feel old because this is still how I talk on the phone. I don't have any airpods or anything lol.

Saw Digger last night. I did not want to see it, but my friend did and we both have Regal Unlimited. Regal gave us a free Imax upgrade, so we went. It surprised me. A different sort of film. Won't be my favorite of the year or anything, but something I'm glad I saw.

Aaah I really can’t wait!!

Happy October everyone!!!! Let the spooky festivities begin! 🎃👻

abolish the death penalty

Jack Smith: "Our investigation developed proof beyond a reasonable doubt that President Trump engaged in serious crimes against our nation ... rather than accept his defeat in the 2020 election, he engaged in a criminal scheme to overturn the results and prevent the lawful transfer of power"

Yes! Again and again!

Give it up, Instagram, I'm not going to try Muse.

Yay! Widow's Bay E4 was my favorite episode of television in a long time.

"Whether we and our politicians know it or not, Nature is party to all our deals and decisions, and she has more votes, a longer memory, and a sterner sense of justice than we do." Thank you, and RIP, Wendell Berry.

RIP Wendell Berry; he turned 92 earlier this month. He was a great essayist and a person who cared deeply for the environment.

Just very tough times lately

One of my pet peeves is when “everyone” decides a book/film/show is about one thing leaving no room for nuanced interpretation.

I wrote about Dolly Parton in my latest @nytopinion.nytimes.com column. Thank you. www.nytimes.com/2026/08/27/o...

It's very very hot in Texas. But the grid is fine. Electricity prices are manageable. What happened? 🔋🔋🔋🔋BATTERIES!!! 🔋🔋🔋 heatmap.news/energy/texas...

They all speak like abusers (because that’s what they are)

Happy National Potato Day! As a Taurus, I can approve. But I never met a potato I didn’t love.

This is why I’m canceling everything and only occasionally getting a month here or there. CN’t stand commercials, can’t pay these prices to not have commercials.

I guess they think as long as they got the right numbers the order doesn't matter. 🙄

I love Earth. I don't want to see the lights of a city on the moon from my front porch. WHAT IS WRONG WITH THESE PEOPLE?

It’s not too late for media to prove that they care about plagiarism in its entirety, and focus on Melania Trump, whose plagiarism was actually witnessed by millions, or Sam Altman, who enables plagiarism at scale. If they hound them to death, we’ll know they care about the topic. But they don’t.

The list from the Cardinals of players who homered on the first pitch they saw in the bigs: Eddie Morgan, 4-14-36 Chris Richard, 7-17-00 Gene Stechschulte, 4-17-01 Adam Wainwright, 5-24-06 Joshua Báez, today

Yes. This is a pro-abuse administration and the Republican party is also pro-abuse. You simply can't show me any evidence otherwise.

💔

The only solution is to burn it all down. Clearly, AI cannot regulate itself.

These people are unreal.

I say this every time there's a new one: If y'all are sleeping on the new Peanuts specials being produced for Apple TV, you're missing some real gems.

I read this book earlier this year. It’s short, funny, and wild.

I'm weirdly happy People decided to publish this article. this lady got very close to the peak and decided to turn back because she wasn't totally confident in her technical ability. That's praiseworthy wisdom, and a good example for others. share.google/d8Xi4aZ8aKkW...

Went to see this when I was in Texas a few summers ago and it was incredible!
