In an age of respiratory distress I think all the time on this line from the incomparable Kate Atkinson:

*the breath was the thing. the breath was everything *

*Stay angry little, Meg… you will need all your anger now.*

Today's Daily is a holiday romp. @amandahess on how, grudgingly, slowly and then all at once, she fell in love with the Hallmark Christmas Movie.

@S_Insley_H Just watched something—the new Laura Dern thing on Netflix— that is all about identifying a book as by Dickens but then gets the title wrong!!

[Katherine Voyles @1977khv]

In chatted on *Chatter*!

A thing I believe with my whole heart is that *The Hunt for Red October* is a Christmas Movie!

[Chatter @ThatWasChatter]

New on Chatter:

@shaneharris spoke to @1977khv about their mutual love of "The Hunt for Red October," their favorite scenes and characters, and how the story influenced--maybe even created--an entire genre of fiction.

[Katherine Voyles @1977khv]

And thank you!! @shaneharris

[Shane Harris @shaneharris]

One of my favorite episodes of Chatter ever, talking about my favorite movie ever. Thank you, @1977khv! https://t.co/at7MHpKfoe

[Katherine Voyles @1977khv]

@shaneharris Didn’t we have the best convo and most fun?

[Katherine Voyles @1977khv]

The OG refined slob taught us that we should always porcini our stuffing

@lauriecolwin

[Katherine Voyles @1977khv]

The refined slob neither steams nor irons her white linen table cloth

[Katherine Voyles @1977khv]

@lauriecolwin Even amidst immiserating conditions people must eat.

Of a Sunday the refined slob roasts untrussed chickens, as instructed by the one and only @lauriecolwin

[Katherine Voyles @1977khv]

It’s definitely another fuck cancer kinda day
