Philip Seymour Hoffman and Ethan Hawke play brothers who decide to rob their parents' jewelry store in Sidney Lumet’s final film- Before the Devil Knows You’re Dead. I can’t stress enough how good great of a final film this is from a legendary director. Everyone here is amazing.

I’m gutted for erik menendez. branding him a ‘threat’ to society is ludicrous. he has spent years rebuilding his life in prison, making something of himself, and giving back even when he didn’t have any hope of freedom. his abusers are gone, neither of the brothers are a threat.

There’s a shortage of classroom teachers and an over-abundance of unnecessary administrators in k-12 education. Seems like there’s a solution in there somewhere.

It took a long time for Alice Neel's portraits to gain a wider audience. It was not until the late 1960s that she began to be recognised as one of the great American painters of the century. This work 'Hartley,' is from 1967.

Almost every night, I open a small notebook. I write one line. It might be: • A sentence I read earlier that stuck with me • An observation I made • A question I want to ponder A simple ritual that does three powerful things for me.

Rereading Joan Didion’s memoir The Year of Magical Thinking, I came again across this extraordinary passage — one of the finest descriptions of grief ever written.

Honestly, I think sometimes I go into the kitchen to make coffee because I just don't feel like writing.

It is not a blazer. This confusion can be easily cleared up if you know the etymology for the term. There are two stories for how the term blazer came about. The first is that it derives from the vibrant red jackets worn by members of The Lady Margaret Boat Club, a rowing…

@coldhealing A *rigorous* classical liberal arts degree, like the one offered at St. John’s College. Direct engagement with printed books and face to face conversations. Documentable evidence he’ll be able to think and write without utilizing AI. @stjohnscollege @zenahitz

None of Morandi's pictures are simple once you start to think how they were made. Once you get beyond simple admiration of his skill you start to wonder about him working in his bedroom and living with his sisters in a flat in Bologna, and how he produced purity of form like this

JESUS CHRIST SUPERSTAR is one of my favorite musicals. The movie released in 1973 caused such controversy. Why? Because some considered it sacrilegious to modernize the last days of the historic Jesus of Galilee. Last nights version at the Hollywood Bowl was stunning…

What is this new trend of flying with the window shades down on DAYTIME flights? You’ve got sweeping views of the most intricate planet known to man and you’d rather sit in a dimly LED-lit tube?! No wonder people are depressed & dysregulated.

I absolutely *DESPISE* how academic libraries have simply stopped buying physical copies of new books. No, I don't want to spend all day reading a fucking PDF of the most recent literature.

i highly recommend you find yourself a clingy (healthy) lovey dovey partner who’s super excited about you. life is too short to spend it with someone who act like showing love is a chore.
