Ah this is amazing, thank you!

I LOVE collecting tangentially Christmas movies. Some more to add to the list include: 12 Monkeys, My Night At Maud’s, Black Narcissus, Placido, In Bruges, On Her Majesty’s Secret Service, Morning for the Osone Family, Prometheus, Police Story, Metropolitan, Carol, Lethal Weapon, Molly’s Game, 2046, Hard Eight, Catch…

One thing I can’t figure out - is this technically the genre of mints that Hickory Farms meltaway mints fall under (https://www.hickoryfarms.com/sweets/mints/mini-meltaway-mints-003867.html?gridindex=1&cgid=mints#start=1)? That’s the exact nostalgic holiday mint for me and I’ve been trying to find a good recipe to…

God, me too. This summer I was watching movies obsessively, and it got to the point that I wasn’t even enjoying watching anything. I realized that it was to impress these movie podcast hosts I will never meet.

Great article. Worth mentioning this is beneficial not only for other cultures, but for some neurodivergent folks as well.

Is that the same Len Wiseman who I met at a special party at Cupertino High?

Sad to see this. I love Lauren Lapkus, and want the best for her career, but I’m not sure I can make it through this one.

Completely agree, though it took some time to get there. Almost all the time it’s easy to make stuff up, change the subject if I’m uncomfortable, or any of that. Internally though, for years I would feel so down and weird for these seemingly innocuous reminders that I’m estranged from my family. In other words, I know…

Really glad to see this content. After a long time of emotional abuse that turned physical, and numerous boundaries ignored, I cut ties with my immediate family nine years ago. Can’t agree more with anything in this article.

Honestly, if their NBC-Owned Comedy lineup was exclusively here, this would become my primary streaming service.

Having Demi as a roommate must have taught Gabe a lot. 

The Dark Knight died a hero, while Joker lived long enough to get a nomination.

Been a big fan of your articles while you’ve been here - thanks for your work, and good luck on your next endeavors!

Every now and then I still get a vanilla frosty at my local Wendy’s.

I’ve been scouring the “So You Want To” sections of TV Tropes all week prepping for NaNoWriMo. Had two aborted attempts last year and the year before, but I hope this is the year I finally stick with it.

Even with my jewel case of seasons, I’m half-tempted to sign up just to have classic Simpsons on demand.

I use my OneNote for a modified Getting Things Done system, and I have a specific Someday/Maybe list for creative ideas, just like this. 

In addition to the other book recommendations here, I want to give props to “How to Be Yourself: Quiet Your Inner Critic and Rise Above Social Anxiety” by Ellen Hendrickson, and recommended by Susan Cain of “Quiet” fame. Reading this along with some therapy to tackle my social anxieties has paid a lot of dividends for…

We always end our Halloween with “It’s the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown”. Our October is filled with scarier fare, but the trick-or-treating and kid characters remind us how we felt when we were younger on actual Halloween nights.

Thanks so much for the article - I lost the password to my original account, but building this for me and fellow time-challenged people is great.
