For folks who haven't been watching Anderson Cooper doing this kind of work for decades, yeah. This is what he has always done. nymag.com/nymetro/news/f…

This image has, for years, been my favorite comics panel of all time. But I'd never seen the full context before just now and it makes me love it even more.

TOAD WILL NOW DANCE, AND HE WILL BE WONDERFUL.

So there's a part in Mark Frost's “Twin Peaks: The Final Dossier” where it's heavily implied that Trump has some affiliation with the Black Lodge via an Owl Cave ring and honestly, that tracks.

I still cannot believe that I got to have Dolly Parton and Rachel Parton George on the Tinfoil Swans podcast. We talked about eating squirrel, class anxiety, cast-iron care, their new cookbook and much more. I hope you will listen. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/tin…

I was trying to file an insurance claim for my husband and after one billion hours of assembling data, the provider's site just had error messages so now I have to file a second claim to deal with the loss of my eyeballs, which just flew across the room. This is on purpose, yah?

Had a lovely chat with Tom Holland about grilling, getting sober, the geometry of relationships, getting to play Spider-Man, his favorite pizza, etc. Tinfoil Swans is on all the podcast platforms if you'd care to listen. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/tom…

A nice thing that happened today is that Tinfoil Swans, the podcast I get to host for Food & Wine, won Gold in the Signal Awards in the Food & Drinks category. It's been a beast of a few weeks, and this felt good, so hooray. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/tin…

I find myself extremely emotional in the countdown to the new The Cure record. They've been my favorite band since I was a teenager in the late '80s, and I'm melting down listening to Huw Stephens' show right now. I wrote this for CNN in 2011. web.archive.org/web/2023013114…

For a second, I was mortified about how much this new The Cure album means to me. And then I thought of this lonely little freak, 17, in her Robert Smith shirt, editing her high school yearbook in Kentucky and waiting for her life to actually begin. We deserve this pleasure.

“Prop 1 does not create new rights, it just makes it much harder for people like Stefanik to take them away.” NY!!!! Flip your ballot over and vote YES on Prop 1!!!!!! hellgatenyc.com/hell-gate-guid…

I am proud of you, my friend. I just needed to let you know!

It's been a billion years since I posted an Unclench O'Clock, but it seemed necessary today. Lower your shoulders; stop chewing, clawing, or ripping at your own body; and take a moment to breathe. Taking the stress out on your physical self doesn't help anything, especially you.

Here's (one tiny part of) the thing: Just a day or two after my mother died of Covid in a South Carolina nursing home, I saw Trump on TV making fun of masks and saying that Covid affects "almost no one." It was cruelty he savored. I will never forgive him. nytimes.com/2024/11/04/us/…

I was an election worker some years back. That is a loooooooong day, and people are nervous and not always at their best. Please be patient with the folks working the polls and if you have the wherewithal, say something nice to them. It's not for the faint of heart.
