WHAT DOES THAT EVEN MEAN
yes and the other one is busy being distracted by a kate beaton nemesis cartoon
god created two genders and it’s important we all accept that (russell crowe in master and commander and paul bettany in master and commander)
last night i had a dream that our house was full of guys fixing it up except even as they were working on it, the whole house slid down a mountain and fell to pieces
and that is when i realized that my dream self clearly thinks my waking self is not too quick on the uptake
BOOK IS SO GOOD GUYS
feels notable that every Oreo flavor adaptation has a stuf ratio closer to double
I am behind! I only saw the beginning of this season
oh??????
huge compliment!!
sure! this piece, like most features on vulture, is behind a metered paywall that makes individual assessments about when to put work behind a subscribers-only filter to try to balance reader loyalty with building new audience. big, high-interest pieces like this usually go behind the paywall
happy to! the paywall is what makes this article possible, and without a subscriber base this magazine could not exist. I flew to LA to report this. I spent hours writing it; it was edited and copy edited and photo edited by people who all need to buy food and pay rent.
oh my god i forgot to note that robby can't swaddle a baby to save his life, scrap this whole piece we have to start over
the way it keeps twitching to make sure even more of itself gets smashed to smithereens
This is great, from "Hold for cream cheese!" to the worthwhile critique of whether "The Pitt" is too beholden to Robby's point of view.
only the whipped cream cheese!
one of my most beloved stories
first place on that list still belongs to lee pace signing off an interview by saying "good luck with your downstairs"
on a more personal note as i write about in this piece, noah wyle has achieved a spot on my list of "men who know exactly what they're doing," after watching me stare at a team prepping a birth scene, leaning over to me, and gently asking, "what was it like when your children were born?"
aside from my gobsmacked awe at how the pitt pulls off its practical effects, my feature on the finale is really motivated by a small set of questions:
how does robby see himself? how does the show see him? and is there any daylight between those two perspectives?

keir saw the Pitt finale and agrees with me about the Al-Hashimi arc
one thing cut from this Pitt finale feature was ken kirby (Dr Shen) between takes looking at a prosthetic newborn baby lying in a roasting pan and asking noah wyle what temp he should cook it at
wyle: 350! [pause, glance at me]
don’t print that [pause]
because it’s an old family recipe.
I went to the set of The Pitt finale, I saw a silicone baby in an aluminum roasting pan, and I wrote about Dr Robby Rabinovitch

“Hmm who is that woman in scrubs but she’s just scribbling in a notebook and constantly glancing around the room”
if you’re thinking “I’d also like the shot where Kathryn was accidentally in the background of an exam room to have made it into the episode,” however, my news is not as good
if you are a The Pitt viewer was maybe thinking “I would love for someone like Kathryn to have been there while they filmed the finale and then write 4k words about it,” I have good news for you later tonight
I have so many thoughts!!!!!!!
drive-in!!!!
great start to one parent being gone on a work trip this week, somehow one of my kids no longer has her shoes?
you think i'd know this by now
