Pink Mooning Tonight’s full moon in Libra ushers in a springtime of romance, including the one you have with yourself. (Warning: I go off a little.)

We’re poised for a Venus Spring that will help us heal romantic scars. Don’t feel guilty about it, for it’s easier to resist with a rosy heart.

The Stubborn Hope of Spring Today’s vernal equinox ignites positive change, no matter how weary it finds us.

Conan’s bookmark shtick worked; he really should be host for life.

The biggest fuckup on my Oscar ballot stemmed from misbegotten hope—I’d really held onto the belief that Sinners could take best pic bc it deserved it

WHAT ABOUT WALLACE! So very glad Michael B Jordan is at that podium now

Adrien Brody really is insufferable even when he keeps it short

Very, very glad Sentimental Value, my favorite 2025 film, won best foreign-language. Trier’s most fully evolved film yet, less defined by the smoke and mirrors of his former endeavors but no less clever.

Autumn is so gracious and styling in her well-deserved acceptance of best cinematography (I’m glad my prediction for this category was wrong.)

Demi Moore has been taking too much of the Substance

Babs singing for her friend Redford, when she never sings live anymore, gave me chills. This was quite the in memoriam; Rachel McAdams did wonderfully as well.

They need to turn down the piano while Barbra is speaking of Redford. She is so faint and frail it’s making me very anxious for her

We knew the In Memorium was gonna kill us this year, and it is. I mean, we lost so many heavyweights in 2025 that I’m still weeping

Billy Crystal on Rob Reiner is the only way he could ever make me cry. But I am crying so, so much.
