I'm not surprised and I'm older than both of you! For a refresher on how little Americans knew about Iran in 1979, much less 1953, I recommend listening to all 4 parts of "Revolution In Iran" which is an insightful UK overview of the revolution and the US hostage crisis: bsky.app/profile/ther...
Reading the headline had me wondering which local restaurant in GB has soup that hot, but seems it was a home-soup issue. Thanks for the heads up about @berkshireeagle.com glad they are here!
I'm glad you're writing about it, I've been telling everyone I know to watch it - we all need some laughs right now. It's incredible he still makes me laugh out loud even though I've seen his movies many times and know all his shtick. Love his stories of Sid Caesar and of course, Carl Reiner
Saw it tonight and I agree with you, I don't know whether my standards are too high (or maybe my expectations are). It somehow felt very "thin"
Approx where? We have water (above 96 Street)
Oh no, I got 2 for 1 tickets to Two Strangers for Broadway Week I hope it's not too bad I was looking forward to a light show!
Watched it tonight as well, beautiful film, Ethan Hawke having quite the year!
I understand why the headline is terrible, but if you can, read the entire story not just the headline. It's quite long (New Yorker length) and it is heartbreaking.
Travelers, on Netflix, is a great Canadian show. Eric McCormack is the lead actor but the entire ensemble is terrific. Highly recommend if you like sci fi
Upside Down slice from Mama's Too with a nice char
I've never had one of their mythical sandwiches despite living only a few blocks away. Thanks for the reminder, just got an "Upside Down" slice
Mama's Too is the best in the neighborhood, but watch out cause those slices are FILLING. Don't disregard the house pie (regular slice) for a lighter bite, it's great too
Same here! (Although they're jamming to Goose)
Yes, but it's also depressing to see the Metropolitan section header and recall that the Times once fully covered local news and was always our hometown paper in addition to its role as the national paper of record ☹️
Quoted often in my house!

Agree! "Co-op". Sondheim didn't really approve though from what I recall
I have the exact same edition, from my childhood - great book! Looking back I wonder if it's what got me into Science Fiction
The click-bait style used online by the NYT is awful and it actually dissuades me from reading articles. I find it almost physically repulsive!
I suggest you watch the original instead, it's much better and the name is much cooler "Le Bureau" (see it in the original French with English subtitles). One of the best series ever!
A must listen: Hungary is their playbook for what's happening here right now, Americans need to wake up!
Unbelievable listen
Perfect day to listen to this song about her by The Embarrassment

But we have to wait until August?! That's a bummer!
I've really enjoyed Peacemaker and I'm excited to see you're directing some of the new episodes!
Everyone came out in the rain to today's #Hands Off! NYC protest - big crowds all the way down Fifth Avenue
