Why do CNN, MSNBC, and Fox News not broadcast 24-7 fire coverage in the same way they do hurricanes? Why isn't Anderson Cooper in a windbreaker walking around the remains of Paradise, CA? I think it's East Coast bias, but please convince me otherwise. (Don't be annoying, though!)

Jack, I'm blocking trolls at a rate of 50 per hour, so time has slowed down for me as well.
Been playing with fasting for some time. I do a 22 hour fast daily (dinner only), and recently did a 3 day water fast. Biggest thing I notice is how much time slows down. The day feels so much longer when not broken up by breakfast/lunch/dinner. Any one else have this experience?

The subject of Woody Allen and those who've chosen to work with him continues to be one of the most vexed questions in Hollywood at this moment. Dylan Farrow will not let these people off the hook, nor should she.

John Mulaney also dropped Dave Becky, the manager villain of the Louis CK story, switching to someone else at 3 Arts. Other than Pamela Adlon, he's (AFAIK) the only high-profile comedian to do so. (Please do tell me if I'm wrong! Maybe there was a VERY QUIET exodus I didn't see.)
When you tell your grandchildren about this day, remember to explain to them that John Mulaney was first.

Elizabeth Olsen stans are going crazy over this tweet, so I'm going to quote her: "I also just noticed that my husband put 'Little Miss Magic,' you know, the 'Little Miss' books? They're these classic books, but magic because of 'WandaVision,' because he's such a fucking cutie."
