Look at that face. Following

18 March 1921 | A Czech Jewish woman, Gertruda Husserlová, was born in Frýdek.
She was deported to
#Auschwitz
from the
#Theresienstadt
ghetto on 6 September 1943. She did not survive.

I hate it when I watch a great performance on TV, and it gets little to no attention. I want everyone I know to watch it, to celebrate it, to tell their friends about it. I want Emmys, Golden Globes, magazine covers, memes.

These lines from Gaetz's Wikipedia page!
As of October 2018, Gaetz is unmarried.[134] In June 2020, Gaetz introduced a man named Nestor whom he lives with and calls his "son".

In a 2000 interview, I asked Mark Burnett if reality TV could subtly erode our dignity & he scoffed.
“Some writers aren’t maybe great at their writing jobs,” he said, “and they’re looking for the easy thing to hang their hat on, and not really cerebrally thinking it through.”

Yup that's what I said. PLUS: Another standout by Judith Light. PLUS: Darren Criss is really creepy good. PLUS: Other positive stuff.

I keep reading about people dumping Trump because he mishandled the pandemic. Because white supremacy, daily lies, using foreign and national policy for personal gain, grabbing pussy, cutting taxes for the rich, and not caring about Russian interference WASN’T ENOUGH?

I happened to catch Mrs. Doubtfire on TV after reading ROBIN, and it was a different movie.
ROBIN, Dave Itzkoff's terrific new bio of Robin Williams, explores the artist's kinetic brilliance and bottomless loneliness through career, addiction, depression, and infidelity, a portrait of light and shadow

I edited Scott Alarik at the Globe for a few years, and he was a lovely and gentle man whose passion for the local folk scene was bottomless. Very sad.
We are heartbroken to hear of the passing of Scott Alarik this week. He was a true supporter of the folk scene, covering folk music for the Boston Globe and many public radio programs for decades. Scott's voice will stay with us.

Unendowed with wealth or pity,
Little birds with scarlet legs,
Sitting on their speckled eggs,
Eye each flu-infected city.
Altogether elsewhere, vast
Herds of reindeer move across
Miles and miles of golden moss,
Silently and very fast.
