@SeptimusBrown Buy a €100 dog bed only to have holes scratched into it nightly....but it's cute when they do it though 😅

Embarrassed to admit that I still haven't seen it. 2026 is the year, for sure.

Anthony Bourdain once said RATATOUILLE is the best food movie of all time.

“The best restaurant movie ever made, the best chef movie. The tiny details are astonishing:

•The faded burns on the cooks’ wrists.

•The ‘personal histories’ of the cooks.

•The attention paid to the food.

•And the Anton Ego ratatouille epiphany hit me like a punch in the chest–literally breathtaking.

I saw it in a theater entirely full with adults–and the reaction to that moment was what movie making was once–a long time ago–all about:

Audible surprise, delight, awe and even a measure of enlightenment.

I am hugely and disproportionately proud that my miniscule contribution (if any) early early in the project’s development led to a ‘thank you’ in the credits. Amazing how much they got ‘right.’”

I'll be damned if I'm gonna wake up at an ungodly hour to watch a match that ends in a draw.

Love a fragmented narrative

“She says a door is touched so often that it holds the heat of all those hands and passing bodies, that it’s practically a living thing.”

@Miranduh_M’s sophisticated story in SLM is a master class on story arc. See how delicate movement builds this tender story. 🔗 in next post.

@The_Fredwords Meh. That's alright. This ship is sinking anyway. Knowing how to triangulate the coordinates of the wreckage won't help.

Awww, you want your own parade. Nobody is stopping you. Get the permits and have at it.

Being part of a generation that was told “Wikipedia is not a source” makes it genuinely baffling to me that jobs are now telling people to just use ChatGPT for everything.

How hard is it to pick up your dog's poop..c'mon people

Being a first reader for a litmag can be a grueling process, until one of your selected pieces gets shortlisted.

At this point, I'm more excited than the writer since the person no idea.

@andrewbertaina The Challenger, White Fang, Call of the Wild...you whipped out the deep cuts. Love it.

[Shon @ShonMapp]

@The_Fredwords Wym? Don't writers update their publication pages all the time. I think you are indeed, stalling.
