Opening my period tracker and angrily tapping to put a check mark next to “Irritability: Severe”

In anxious times, I try to be grateful for small slivers of hope. Sure, political violence and unrest are on the rise, but HBO paid a pretty penny to shoot and edit a scene in which a man who rides dragons goes down on his own mom and then they aired it on a Sunday night like it was no bigs. Magic.

We didn’t know how good we had it: this one night in 1996 had SIXTEEN sitcoms airing new episodes.

Sorry I’m late, I meant to get dressed but then I had to sit on my bed in a towel to read irresponsible rumors on my phone for 35 minutes.

Having enjoyable sex is a Jewish value.

Dr Ruth was a Jewish Holocaust survivor btw. Her attitudes about enjoying sex and the freedom to express sexuality were informed by Orthodox Judaism. She wrote a whole book about it! jwa.org/encyclopedia...

The sexy people in LA go to a rooftop pool on Friday night to get bottle service, but I go to swim laps.

I have a ticket. My body is ready.

Right now my day to day life is just a way to kill time until Twisters comes out.

“Oh, you said DON’T erase thirty-six pages of that screenplay by laying across the keyboard? That does make more sense.”

Obviously there will be special dispensation if you sink an ocean liner, crash a passenger set, or blow up a bunch of stuff in the third act. But if less than 3000 people die in your film? It has to come in under 150 minutes.

Why is Kinds of Kindness almost three hours long? I don’t want to be a crank but when I’m in charge, if you can’t tell your story in 2 1/2 hours it is legally a mini series and not eligible for Oscars.

Finally saw your dad’s favorite movie.

Review of ‘Patriot Games’ (1992)boxd.it Don’t ask me to explain, but this movie is Barbie for men.

Okay. Why is SWIMMING making my foot swell. What gives??? Fuck you, bones. Useless.

Oops. I tried weighted squats and I’m right back to “too puffy to wear shoes.”

I am so proud of Amanda. Tikkun Olam in action.

How Beverly Hills became an unlikely battleground for the future of abortion rightswww.latimes.com The campaign by an antiabortion group to block the opening of a specialized clinic in Beverly Hills may offer a playbook for similar efforts in other cities and states.

89 (human) years old and still living on the edge.

If the French defeat the Nazis and America doesn’t, we will have to retire some of our most cherished jokes.

largest french turnout in 40 years, to keep the nazis down. fascism sucks up power left unattended

Goddamn. Taffy did it again.

Fifty years ago, her father’s friend was taken at gunpoint on Long Island. Then he went on with his life — and that’s the part that haunts her.

The Kidnapping I Can’t Escapewww.nytimes.com Fifty years ago, my father’s friend was taken at gunpoint on Long Island. Then he went on with his life — and that’s the part that haunts me.

TFW you’re pretty sure you’d like poke.

I’m sorry, I’m meant to believe this year is over half over? Is this accurate? Can an expert weigh in please?

Traditions are importantly to me.

He sits facing the window to let me know I’m supposed to open it.

For years I have hung on solely for the NYT Cooking app. I’m becoming resigned but I genuinely resent that I can’t have nice things because the paper of record is now running “why vote?” Op-eds.

Instagram just congratulated me for adding to my story for the 250th time. If it’s such an achievement, then why do I feel nothing but shame? Answer that, Instagram??

I made a Byron slideshow for his birthday party and never changed it back. Now when he naps he looks like one of those bad guys in an 80s comedy who lives in a mansion filled with portraits of himself.

I have long since made peace with this, but mostly because “middle aged dad” is my type.

Is it a red flag that I’m super excited about the new Gladiator movie with Pedro Pascal, or is it further evidence that I was always meant to have the interests of a middle aged dad

There shoukd be more tv shows about people who overestimate their own abilities but are rubbish at their jobs.
