Opera, food, political outrage, cats. Working on my homemade pizza game. Trying to keep Bianca in check. I vet (eventually) before following back.

Why not, if you can get a ticket?

@pbsnews.org News Hour SOTU pregame analysis is doing an excellent job prepping us for the @tcmtv.bsky.social 8:00 movie, Gaslight.

The pictures are glorious and it looks like your timing was excellent!

Of the 4 productions I’ve seen, this one has the mythical quality of history rather than memory.

Perfect trolling: TCM’s Tuesday prime time movie is β€œGaslight”. In case you didn’t have to wash your hair or something. (worth watching in any case for Angela Lansbury’s film debut)

I will never forget Lorraine Hunt Lieberson’s Didon.

Daytime WNYC has some good shows but I rarely listen these daysβ€”mate needs the tv constantly onπŸ™„. Otherwise, I stream tons of music performances from Europe etc. Don’t know about Deutsche Welle but France24 has videos on their app. I should explore Al Jezeera etc.

Do you have basic cable? France24, DW, BBC (though they’re center right) offer alternate perspectives.

Sorry, not enough tequila in the house. Not watching.

Berlioz alert: Les Troyens on Met broadcast the next two Saturdays. From 1972, with Verrett, Quilico, Vickers, Ludwig, Dunn, McCurdy, Blegen. Kubelik conducts. (autocorrect went nuts on this post!)

I recognize half a dozen names of singers who were ensemble members when I was attending somewhat often during the teens. I think that esprit de corps contributes to the company’s versatility.

Like the way Trump didn’t get convicted for rape because of the NU State technical definition of rape.

You should have seen this at the Armoryβ€”it was remarkable. Spatial elements made a big difference. classicalvoiceamerica.org/2023/09/29/s...

It was! NYFOSβ€” Nee York Festival of Songβ€”programs are always worth attending. Steven Blier is a programming genius and his notes, both written and spoken, illuminate with scholarship and wit.

I have been remiss in posting. This NYFOS program should be really good!

The obstructionists understand the international scope of this story and they’re scared shitless. This will take years to unravel.

Those bleeding chunks from Prokofiev’s R&J were so truncated as to be distracting.

Amazing testimony at Democrats’ forum from a Minnesota citizen, Wisconsin-born Bangladeshi woman with autism, giving a precise description of her inhumane ICE detention. She’s not alone during this session. Why are We The People allowing this to continue???

So when are the ICE sweeps scheduled to start in South Florida? There are likely some private employers with undocumented immigrant employees…

Oh man. ANOTHER anchor said β€œaw pair.” Guys, try β€œO’pear”. Perhaps it’s a Georgia variant? Interestingly, the expert being interviewed has no such problem. πŸ€¦πŸ»β€β™€οΈ

MAGA has flooded the site with highly flattering viewer reviewsβ€”current popcornmeter rating is 99% from over 100 verified viewers.

Tomatometer (17 critic reviews) is 12%

He just did it again. This is an anchorman, not a local cub reporter. πŸ™„

The CNN (not my choice!) reporter just referred to a nanny in the news as an β€œow pair”. Is it mean to call this out as inexcusably uneducated for a public media figure on national TV? β€œAu pair” isn’t that obscure or elitist a term, is it?

A glimpse of spine in 30 seconds: Trump rebukes a reporter for being loud and tells her to let someone else have a chance. She says, β€œCan you answer the question” and she begins to repeat itβ€”(then someone changed the channel 😠). EVERY WH REPORTER MUST INSIST THAT T ANSWER THEIR QUESTIONS!
