The word “synesthesia” comes from the Greek: syn (together) and aisthesis (sensation).

I Have Survived Everything Except Living Death has followed me since I was eight years old. It’s never finished the job. That’s the scariest part.

Death, it turns out, has had a very particular relationship with me. Not the kind where it takes me.

They Made Five Sharknado Movies, What's Your Excuse? The absolutely unglamorous, occasionally humiliating, but 100% real journey from “What if...” to a credit on IMDB

The Sharknado writers did not wait until they had a watertight concept.

Your Books Know Exactly Who You Are. A roast for readers. With love. Mostly.

You buy books to possess the possibility of who you’ll be when you read them.

Lassie Has a Star, Kim Kardashian Doesn’t, and Nobody Is Explaining Themselves The Hollywood Walk of Fame is stranger, more absurd, and more democratic than you were ever warned.

The Hollywood Walk of Fame, the institution that somehow manages to be both the most exclusive and least exclusive thing in show business.

Every Action Movie Is a Documentary About a World Where Physics Resigned Fifteen airtight pieces of evidence that Hollywood has been making it up as they go, and we have been nodding along like well-trained golden retrievers

Fifteen things movies insist are real that are, to put it in scientific terms, complete and total garbage.

Why We’d Rather Die Than Say Hello The elevator is 80 square feet of shared humanity but we’ve all decided to act like it’s a dentist’s waiting room.

That’s the actual cost of our elevator silence pact: sometimes the people who most need someone to step in get nothing but strangers looking at their shoes.
