Editor/writer in NYC! I see a lot of live theater. Like... *a lot*. If you ever need a theater or movie recommendation, lemme know.

Beyond grateful I grew up in a house where our parents let us read whatever books we want or watch whatever movies we wanted. Nothing was censored. Watching the sequence about banning books is nuts because it’s happening again now. Let kids read.

Watching #JudyBlumeForever — this is *everything*. Her books were my childhood. She’s part of the reason why I keep writing. Keep trying to get published. ❤️

I had the privilege of telling my mom that Tucker Carlson was fired. Love sharing that good news on a Monday ❤️
FaceTimed for more than an hour with my 6-month-old nephew (and my brother). Nothing like the reassurance that 1.) I am *fantastic* with little kids and 2.) I definitely do not want to have my own. Being an aunt is the actual best scenario.

The lack of continuity with regard to Cole’s asthma bothered me so much. Don’t have a plot point like that if you’re going to ignore it when the SAME SCENARIO that triggered it pops up later in the movie and he’s all of a sudden fine afterward.

Folding laundry while listening to Neil Diamond’s greatest hits at 7:20pm on a Saturday because that’s what you do after the long day I had.
I purposefully put one song on repeat while I was doing some evening chores and when it started playing a second time I got confused. I’m literally so tired, I forgot what I had done maybe 3 minutes earlier 😭
Fell asleep in the middle of the latest Mrs. Maisel episode and I’m not even going to go back and watched what I missed. I was so disappointed with how the season started off, I no longer care what happens *now*. Because it means nothing.
Not that I ever doubt that the dogs were good again this week, but I always appreciate the pupdate at the very top of the video.

It’s unsettling when you know someone knows they are being loudly creepy/annoying on the subway for attention. Because there’s nothing you can do because that’s the only way to stay safe even when you don’t feel safe.

If you just heard someone yell "FINALLY" in Queens, it was me watching the trailer for All the Light We Cannot See.
I spent most of today having a migraine and watching Bake Off. It’s actually been a really nice day — brain pain aside.
Every single retail job I’ve ever had explicitly told us to not go after shoplifters so when you hear stories of someone harming a shoplifter where they work they’re not doing that “to protect the company” they’re doing that bc they want to harm someone

I so appreciate the weird sibling ESP I have with my brother. Out of nowhere last night, and with zero preamble, he texted me that Face/Off is streaming on Amazon. I have been meaning to rewatch this for forever (we watched it all the time as kids), but hadn't mentioned it at all
The best part of Saturday morning is catching up on Grand Crew from the night before. (Why none of my friends are watching this show is beyond me.)

Maybe should make an announcement before the show that you shouldn’t sing along except for the designated times. The lady next to me tonight is trying to out-sing Will Swenson and she is not who I paid to see/hear.

Audibly reacted with “Ugh, YES” at the mention of Reds. (Yay for The Verdict, but come on... Reds is f-ing phenomenal.) Not enough people of my generation have watched that. Not even folks I was in film school with in the early 2000s.

Listening to the Films to Be Buried With interview with Adam Scott. In Her Shoes came out when I was away at college and I remember sobbing at the end of that (because I missed my sister). Adam Scott is referencing so many of my favorite directors. Loving this.

That being said, any trans or non-binary person, please tell me your pronouns and name when we meet. Those are important and I will respect the hell out of your pronouns and name for as long as I breathe.
I just have zero allegiance to HBO, who cancelled my Minx show.

I barely call HBO Max by its own name now. I usually just call it HBO. If they think I’m going to just call it Max, that’s funny. Max is that kid from Stranger Things. You will be HBO forever, my dude.

The show sounded great. (Congratulations to the cast on that!) But I won't be using LuckySeat for the foreseeable future.

The show was New York, New York (now in previews at the St. James Theatre). The seat was Balcony B 37. This seat should not be offered as part of the lottery. Other lottery folks had orchestra seats or center balcony/mezz seats. This is more than obstructed.

Any theatergoer who enters the lottery knows they can be assigned a seat with a partial or obstructed view. I did not expect to be assigned a seat where 50-70% of the show was obstructed the entire show. That seat should not physically exist, full-stop. Shame on you and LuckySeat

Frustrating that sent a post-show email saying "We'd love to hear from you," but then no one responded to my email when I wrote back about how horrendous of a theatergoing experience I had at one of their shows/in one of their theaters.
So now I will put them on blast

I’m not even going to be surprised if the new Captain Marvel movie is already getting bad ratings from misogynists and bigots because it stars a bunch of women (with a bunch of them being women of color). That teaser trailer looked great. Can’t wait to see that in November!

It’s been a fun decade being lectured on free speech and “safe spaces” from people who want to use state power to prevent themselves and others from ever encountering a book, person or idea these people find unpleasant or disagreeable

Let me see if I’ve got this straight.
One man.
One single, solitary 45-year-old man has the right to take away reproductive freedom from half of the population of this country? What. The. Hell.

This is Matthew Kacsmaryk, the Trump judge in Texas who just halted the FDA’s 23-year-old approval of abortion pills in EVERY state, making their distribution illegal in a week.
He previously said LGBT people are “disordered.” Republicans confirmed him to be judge for life.

Catching up on Roy Wood Jr.'s stint as The Daily Show's guest host — I wholeheartedly wish they would let him take over permanently.

I hope the folks who cut the line at New York, New York today instead of waiting patiently like the rest of us enjoy the show
For those keeping score at home...
Things that WILL NOT get you expelled from the TN state legislature:
- child molestation
- domestic violence
- federal investigation
- peeing on your colleague's chair
Things that will:
- fighting to protect kids from gun violence

Wow: Tennessee state Rep. Justin Jones, one of the Dems that the GOP is trying to expel from state legislature to protesting gun violence, calls out his colleagues on the floor
‘For years, one of your colleagues, an admitted child molester, sat in this chamber – no expulsion’

Did all my usual Sunday morning errands today so I can do absolutely nothing tomorrow morning. And that’s what Easter’s about, Charlie Brown.
I’m at the laundromat watching someone put four whole dryer sheets into each dryer they are using.
There is nowhere near enough Timothy Olyphant in Daisy Jones and The Six
