Terrific summer genre picks from @EVincentelli @devikagirgayi @812filmreviews and me. Mine of course is an 80s slasher starring of course Adrian Zmed. Plus it’s free on Tubi, home of some wacko horror treasures. nytimes.com/2022/08/04/mov

We ate something called an Apple Jesus in Glenwood Spring, CO, this AM — hybrid of muffin and cinnamon roll with sliced apples on top. Google only finds it at a bakery in Aspen. Does the Twitter hive mind know anything about this pastry?

Way too easy to fall into rabbits holes with those damn podcasts. I totally lost sense of time listening to Budgie and Lol Tolhurst (from the Banshees and the Cure) discuss the Siouxsie album "Juju" — which they picked as her best, and I agree.

7. Violence: "I’ll be honest with you, dear reader: Dante was being kind of a dick when it came to designing this level. 9. Treachery: "The final circle is a frozen wasteland occupied by history’s greatest traitors. So…Washington, DC in February?"

Excerpts from a guide to Dante's 9 Circles of Hell on Penguin Random House's site: 1. Limbo: "You’ll have television, but all of the channels will be set to CSPAN." 5. Anger:"If playing pirates forever sounds like your idea of a good time, then the fifth circle can’t be too bad."
