Friday was Cat’s Cradle’s last show of the year at Player’s Theatre. Thanks to everyone who came out show after show to see us, we had an amazing run. Looking forward to next year!

It’s the first day of early voting in New York City, and the turnout was healthy. I waited in line about a half hour, which I was happy to do.

If you haven’t noticed, our democracy is on the ballot. Proud to have voted for Kamala Harris. 🇺🇸

I kind of like how this looks vibrant and interesting, but as you look closer you see all these gasoline-spill digital artifacts in the shadows.

I was shocked to learn that actor Ralph Fiennes first name is not only pronounced “Rayf”, but his full name is, according to Wikipedia, “Ralph Nathaniel Twisleton-Wykeham-Fiennes”. I didn’t know a name like that was legal outside a cartoon.

A remarkable neon tone poem on sadness. Read more

Terrifier 2, 2022 - ★★★

Somehow, after the first Terrifier was at best fine and at worst politically gross, this movie rules. Gone is the gender stupidity, in is the whimsy, the dreams, the characters you care about. In … Read more

Terrifier, 2016 - ★½

This is a pretty rote slasher, without much of the whimsy and humor Art the Clown would later grow. It's also incredibly misogenistic and transphobic, thanks to a few of the more elaborate kills near … Read more

New proposal for a Turing test to detect tech bros: have a text only conversation for five minutes. If mentions of being in a simulation > 0, tech bro detected.

I got this political ad texted to me: “AMISH for Trump”. Who do I tell that they’re barking up the wrong tree, twice? 🇺🇸

I used Letterboxd besties to find everyone with my same listed favorite movies. No one had the exact same, four or any of the same three. 🍿🦄

Had a great time at #smashingconf. Thanks to all the speakers and organizers and staff. Everyone was very kind and approachable and I learned a lot.

TIL the word “Tesselate”, which is a repeating pattern, like a honeycomb. ⬣
