Three episodes into that Carrie TV show. It is RADICALLY different

Thoughts of Sorts by Georges Perec Intellectual, noun - an 'educated person who is interested in complicated ideas and enjoys studying and careful thinking' French Intellectual, noun - someone who just, I dunno, makes shit up. I guess.

“I promise to defend you from a zombie apocalypse or alien invasion, but if it’s a werewolf attack, it’s every man for himself.” “The bride has also written her own vows.”

"New from Marvel: Midnight Columbo"

"my financial records? Lieutenant, I work in indie comics. I have the ONE dollar. I will go to a show and give to another person for their zine. A year later they will give it back to me for my zine. That's all there is."

"According to several different witnesses the suspect, who burst through the wall fist first, looked like 'some Roman god of war!'"

"My Columbo Sense is tingling. Someone was murdered in an extremely convoluted manner."

"My god, Bruce Wayne is The Batman!"

Four Color Comics #1309 by Bernie Krigstein

the new york times loves to run articles about middle America with headlines like A Week in Melvin, Iowa, The Town That Pronouns Forgot

The Lost Pianos of Siberia by Sophie Roberts (audiobook). This feels like a good long magazine article that has been blown-up to fit book size. The main subject is interesting but she keeps jumping to other stuff to make a more generalized point about Russia that doesn't really work.
