The Does anyone still wear a hat hat

I have spent many hours of my life teaching children at this synagogue and it really bums me out to see it vandalized and it also bums me out to know how few of my non-Jewish friends will care enough to say that this is not okay because it’s “just” words on a building

Was telling a friend about the zillow gone wild show and accidentally made this picture of Jack McBrayer my desktop background

I love the Cleveland museum of art

I’ve been listening to Ed Zwick’s memoir on my evening walks (read by Zwick) and really enjoying his Hollywood stories and wisdom

Oh also the mosque-Cathedral in Córdoba is 😍😍😍 it’s very cool with combined Muslim/Catholic design. Skipped Alcazar there. Sevilla cathedral is largest gothic cathedral and 3rd largest cathedral in Europe. Obviously I’m still coming down from the experience. Went to a castle that was in GoT, too.

Posadero* my spelling was off. Happy to share more recs if you want. Real Alcazar of Sevilla also very worth doing & requires advance tix - most of the big tourist attractions do. Alhambra: your entry time is for palace but you can go earlier & look at gardens & Alcazar 1st which was clutch for us.

Quote with a picture of a celebrity you've been told you look like. Both obscenely flattering to me.

Happy John Garfield’s birthday to all

Just got a bunch of FOIA docs regarding my request on John Garfield and HUAC 👀

If ELIA KAZAN declines to name you as a Communist, I think that should clear a guy.

Fun fact Morris Carnovsky, who was named by Kazan, spit on him at Garfield’s funeral. www.huffpost.com/entry/witnes...

“In his opinion, Garfield is a simple, uneducated, loud type of person who is not intelligent enough to be a Communist. On the other hand his wife is the true driving force as far as Communism is concerned in the Garfield family.”
