We love Jamie Ager here in Asheville! Thanks for sharing this.

I have a friend named April and she ALSO gets called Rachel.

Is it... on... printer paper?

What a fabulous one to adapt! My kiddo will be stoked.

Beautiful, perfect story:

The second episode of The Studio is exactly why I don’t like visiting set. Seth Rogen exemplified my greatest fears. 😂

It isn’t Mother’s Day until one of your kids yells at you for not paying enough attention to them. 😂🫠

Never witnessed but heard this from many friends, especially my Rockwell-performing pals. (I think he used to be a regular performer there?)

Do not believe, for one moment, that tariffs on non-US made movies and TV series will help our US-based industry. It will hurt theaters; it will contract our business even more.

Incentives, worker protections, creative development are the way forward. Keep fighting the good fight, y'all.

Phew, my jealousy meter is OFF THE CHARTS watching these Cowboy Carter tour vids.

Long live Queen Bey.

I bet Marc Elias and his team are exhausted.

Dems. Read the room. Do not send fundraising texts right now. Get out there and do something worthy of our support and of the votes we gave you to be there.

DO. SOMETHING.

If you have the means and ability, support your local faves. ❤️

People are understandably not spending or going out like they used to. That means local businesses, even the ones that aren’t near the fire areas, are hurting. I know it can feel weird to meet a friend for a drink at a bar or get a pedicure right now, but these places need you.

Angelenos: if there’s a restaurant, coffee shop, independent bookstore, local boutique, hair salon, florist, bakery, etc in your area that you really love… they need your business now in order to survive.

I’ve now lived through two “once in a generation” disasters and I can tell you that recovery is long, arduous, frustrating. It takes creativity, stubbornness, bravery, and fortitude.

And if those things don’t describe Angelenos, I don’t know what does.

We’ll be with you every step of the way, LA.

Angelenos:

If you’ve lost your home or have been displaced and unable to return, start saving all of your itemized receipts now.

When the time comes to recoup some of what has been lost, someone (insurance) will ask for it.

Supplies, food, gas, lodging, air fare… save receipts for all of it.

I somehow managed to order SIX BOXES of on-sale Hanukkah candles (for next year's holiday) from different sites. So our 2025 latke parties are gonna be lit.

(You're welcome.)

Even Stephen King gets imposter syndrome. So from now on, when I feel it, I'm going to remind myself I'm doing something right.

You should do the same.

I was just talking with a friend about this, too. That slogan makes it sound as if everything will change on January 1, and that is... unlikely to happen. :/

As we near the year’s end, let this be a reminder that “worst of” lists are unfunny, unhelpful, and unnecessarily mean. Stick to “best ofs” and we can discern the rest thanks.

I can pretty much guarantee that they aren’t looking to bring you down in general, but definitely not in a bathroom of all places. If anything, they’ll compliment your lip color and give you styling tips and frankly, some of us need that.

Every trans person I’ve ever met has been so gentle and loving and kind. They’re just so happy to be themselves. They’re not looking to bring harm on anyone because they know how awful it is.

He resigned from Congress effective immediately. This doesn’t change that… right?
Or is he gonna worm his way back in?

Lots of debris in the sewers, so streets flood when it rains. But plumbing in general works fine.
