Sitting around reading another active shooter livetweet & thinking about the number of shitty screenplays being written on the topic right now

“Retired SEAL Beefy McWhite just wanted to get home for the holidays when—“

Please don’t, nobody needs your dollar store jack ryan
Same also goes for your sensitive woke ensemble drama about it; “CRASH but Active Shooter” is not needed in this or any universe, step away from Final Cut right now pal
“but I want to make something REAL”

then take a pottery class

The great thing about living around the corner from NYC’s best ramen place is knowing that there’s always a place available at the bar if you’re by yourself, even when there’s a line halfway down the block to get in
In related news: psychic powers definitely don’t exist and thank god bc folks in line trying to kill me with their eyes
Also: my kingdom for some proper Hong Kong street market char siu bao

Velvet Buzzsaw is basically a giallo and I am all here for it
Gyllenhaal’s physicality in it is distracting — it would have made Zawe Ashton’s arc more interesting if it was a less attractive actor playing Morf, if she were in the positiom women so often are of having someone kinda gross but career useful creeping on her
(Don’t get me wrong, Gyllenhaal is great in this, but still)

Okay, so this entire article is Some Bullshit, a thread (yes, this is about Zhao’s BLOOD HEIR):
An alternate title for this thread is So You Wrote A Bad Book And Now You’re Whining About The Consequences
Look, nobody professional in YA or any other creative arts has time or energy to mount hate campaigns against other authors, just trust me on this

we have deadlines

Now is a good time, Paris is a good example to point out statist ideologues don't really care about public opinion, despite using it as a weapon.

“We are in a state of insurrection, I’ve never seen anything like it.” Jeanne d’Hauteserre, mayor of Paris’ 8th district, near Arc.
Bet @AngelaMerkeICDU & @EmmanuelMacron would give their left arms to have @realDonaldTrump's approval rating right now.
France used to be extremely nationalistic, and proud of it. They had little patience for Americans who didn't at least try to speak French.

Good times.

In WWII, that nationalism largely prevented them from allying w/ their socialist brethren in Berlin. It was a good thing.

Never seen any of these before. Today is day four.

The kids have long hair now, and there are OTHER WIZARD SCHOOLS?!?! The fuck?

Let's jump right in shall we?

I usually pause a movie about ten times so its gonna be a challenge not doing it at all...

But I know lots of people are watching too. This feels like a movie theater!
#HarryPotterLiveTweet

Is that?

No...

Holy shit.

IT'S DAVID FUCKING TENNANT!

HE'S MY PERSONAL HERO

I can't with this guy...but interestingly, he's also revealing a lot with each one of these interviews.

Why not just go speak to the Grand Jury? Clearly, it's not about avoiding spending more time talking about the investigation and your experience...

He can't help himself..
#NOW: SAM NUNBERG says he was told he wasn't a target or a subject of the investigation and he was OFFERED IMMUNITY by the Special Counsel's team.

He also said THEY WANT HIM TO TESTIFY...TO CATCH ROGER STONE ON PERJURY...

ADMITTING THAT ROGER MAY HAVE LIED TO PROSECUTORS.
#LOL: Save this one...

SAM NUNBERG: "I'M NOT GOING TO JAIL, COME ON."

I will now attempt to #livetweet a poetry book.

I got Apocalypse Mix by Jane Satterfield for Christmas. I put it on my list for some reason, but I don't remember anything about it, so this will have no personal bias.
I like the look of the book. It's got a kind of pulp fiction look to it. The cover image is a crow, power lines, and thornbushes. This is my world!
First thing I notice is that it won the 2016 Autumn House Poetry Prize. I'm already jealous because even though I didn't enter that contest, I have lost many chapbook and book contests.
