Lovely! I hope you have the best time and definitely have lots of great meals!
in honor of 4/20, just going through and liking every post that starts “To be blunt,”
I’m genuinely surprised they included L, I thought that was the only part of his job anyone thinks he actually has to do.
the best kind of tradition :)
I’m from Boston and didn’t know that! Neat.

what a coincidence, my dog is also a top 5 dog!
aw perfect pooch
like all the sentences in this piece are in a neck and neck competition for the most violently absurd
A screenshot of part of the Atlantic article that reads He is also known to drink to excess at the Poodle Room, in Las Vegas, where he
I do find the name of his favored haunt a bit delightful.
lately my bon does not feel so vivant
I also learned this very recently, can’t not read it as of fucking course
ironically I had to stop abbreviating follow up as f/u in notes other people read
“It’s a couple of things that work beautifully in concert. First: no music. Audiences are so sophisticated, but what they’re not accustomed to is not being told how to feel,” Wyle says. “You take all that out and it forces a level of engagement where you’re now looking for clues within the frame of the screen, which forces you to look up from your phone. And I think that is extremely engaging, especially to young viewers who aren’t accustomed to being asked to participate in a nonpassive way in the viewing experience.
“Second point, shooting it with almost exclusively 50-millimeter or 65-millimeter lenses, which is the most comparable to the human eye—and only shooting from the point of view of a human being that’s present in this space. There are no cameras on gurney wheels going in the hallway. There’s no cameras on the ceiling looking down from a God point of view. You are limited to the perspective of a participant. You can look away, but you can’t leave, and it becomes an endurance test for you to stay on your feet as long as we’re on our feet. Which [brings me to my] third point: real time. Real time has an aggregate sense of tension that you don’t get in any other form of storytelling. What happened before is happening now, and these two things are going to add up to the next thing. And if we throw more ingredients into this cooker and keep ratcheting it up, it’s going to pop.”
Wyle makes eye contact for his next point, delivering it with a Robby-esque matter-of-factness. “Fourth point: The election went the other way,” he says with a shrug. “We could have been a really good show with a lot of nice things to say in a perfectly normal Kamala Harris universe. And instead we became almost a beacon of hope and humanity in an alternative universe. But in the midst of that, fifth point—this is essentially competence porn. You’re watching really smart, dedicated people do what only they know how to do at a level that you don’t know how to do it, and you’re so fucking glad that they’re there doing it, and compartmentalizing their own stuff to put your broken pieces back together. You’re so reassured by knowing that there are people out there that laugh and joke and have the ability to lock in like that.”
this is fucking unreal stuff from Noah Wyle on the magic of The Pitt. www.gq.com/story/noah-w...

War criminal isn’t strong enough for these people. We need a new category of criminal.
authormillyphilips: "Once I bought a timed ticket for the Georgia Aquarium for the wrong time and I went up to the ticket counter and I asked if I could get it corrected and the guy who worked there said time is a meaningless human construct and you are only bound to it if you choose to be. So that was a great customer service experience."
thank you for sharing this, incredibly important.
also I feel nauseous and I’m pretty sure I’m going to have nightmares.
