A very merry Solstice to you and yours from me and mine. ♥️

if we’re going to abandon reason, embrace superstition, and regress as a society, we should at least bring back tunics, houppelandes, and elaborate hats. we do not need to look this boring while we’re at it

Thank you!!! :)

Lots of really exciting news happening around these parts!! This blew my mind!! I was checking email to see if my daughter’s pediatrician had called in news meds for her strep and I got this email instead!

As part of my book research (for Beard: A Memoir of a Marriage, Oct 2025), I came across all these fascinating stories of bearddom. Been having fun making these little videos, Beard on Beard(s). This time around it’s Florence Balcombe (aka Mrs. Bram Stoker).

Isabella Rossellini: ‘People never talk about the freedom, the lightness, that comes with ageing’ The Italian star is having a late career renaissance, including a powerful turn in acclaimed Vatican thriller Conclave.

Loved doing this interview: talking with Isabella Rossellini about everything from Conclave to Death Becomes Her to the beauty industry to farming to nepo babies to “the great serenity of being single.” A queen. www.theguardian.com/film/2024/no...

This really is facism.

Picture of a back tab with PBS streaming Ken Burns

Fact about me: my number one self-soothing/ADHD productivity hack is to never not have a Ken Burns doc playing (just the audio) in a back tab. I realized this about fourteen years ago, and I have not diverged from this path.

I’ve been thinking about this book so much in the last few weeks. Excellent thread.

Trump names Linda McMahon as his pick for Education secretary | CNN Politics President-elect Donald Trump has named his transition co-chair Linda McMahon as his pick to serve as the next secretary of the Department of Education.

I see that we've surpassed international laughingstock and achieved galactic laughingstock.

Just finished the last ep of Disclaimer and OH MY ENTIRE GOD. 🤯😱 what a phenomenal and phenomenally complex story, PERFECTLY executed on every level. WOW.

My favorite place in America.

Epic sunset over Edinburgh featuring the Balmoral Clock and the Scott Monument

First post on Bluesky...be gentle. 😀
I'm a photographer, showcasing Edinburgh, Scotland's capital city for more than ten years now via Facebook and other social media platforms. I thought I'd pop over here and say hi and do the same thing - here's an epic sunset over Edinburgh to get us started!

This is my dog’s favorite thing. All three of his humans in one room. The coziest and squishiest lap (mine) to be draped upon.

The Return - Official Trailer (2024) Ralph Fiennes, Juliette Binoche YouTube video by IGN Movie Trailers

In one of my previous jobs, I taught The Odyssey five times a day, five days a week, for four years (from Jan to Feb each year). I’ve had a Ralph Fiennes thing since he was Heathcliff (with Juliette Binoche) in the 90’s. So how am I just realizing this was coming?!! youtu.be/N8Ug0R8_o0o?...

I truly believe that we can come together as a community and be unwell enough to make this website stick

My little half-hound dog was very much Team Eponine while I played piano last night. 😂

My taste in music tends towards “gentle sad dad” indie/folk, and yet, I will never not love hearing “Enter Samdman” in a get pumped athletic setting…which I guess doesn’t NOT track with the sad dad of it all. If not apples to oranges, maybe Granny Smiths to Sweet Tangoes?
