Yesterday was the Blessing of the Animals and I really wish I had been at St. John the Divine in New York for their celebration:
@mickmicknyc From camels to cats, snakes to dogs, every creature found a blessing today at St. John the Divine đď¸đŤđ @St. John the Divine â¤ď¸ Itâs the cathedralâs annual Blessing of the Animals, a New York tradition where wildlife and pets come together under one roof. Only in New York â¤ď¸
Hereâs A BUNCH OF TV News
HBOâs upcoming It series has Stephen Kingâs seal of approval.
This is a solid list of 10 classic horror movies you can catch up on this month. Iâd replace Bram Stokerâs Dracula with The Sixth Sense, The Others, or The Orphanage, but otherwise, these are all worth your time.
Fox Sports analyst Mark Sanchez was hospitalized in Indianapolis after being stabbed in a fight, and then, plot twist, he got arrested. He was charged with misdemeanor counts of battery with injury, unlawful entry of a motor vehicle and public intoxication, and a felony charge of battery. According to Pajiba, the story behind all of this is wild.
Kristen Wiigâs response to meeting Carol Burnett was completely appropriate. HEY, LORNE, WHATâS YOUR DEAL?
Punkie Johnson and Chloe Troast would like you to know that being fired from Saturday Night Live sucks. And Caleb Hearon would like you to know never being hired by Saturday Night Live in the first place is actually a blessing.
Bari Weiss is now in charge of CBS News, so thatâs not super.
Prime Video removed all of the guns from the images of James Bond in its collection, for some weird reason, before returning them when fans started asking questions.
Amazon have removed the guns from their Bond posters, giving the tantalising impression that Sean Connery and Pierce Brosnan think youâre a wanker. pic.twitter.com/tyjMVD1mit

A very with-it Congressman would like to know why animated Netflix shows canât be more like The Andy Griffith Show. (By the way, I thought this was going to be one of our more than 20 Congresspeople who are over 80 years old, but nope, heâs 61.)
Dr. Phil has found a new home for his floundering network.
âWell, they suck, and weâll win,â said Noem of the league. âAnd God will bless us, and weâll stand and be proud of ourselves at the end of the day. And they wonât be able to sleep at night because they donât know what they believe. And theyâre so weak, weâll fix it.â â the head of the Department of Homeland Security on the NFLâs choice to have a multi-platinum, Grammy-Award-winning American perform at the Super Bowl.
President Toilet Obsessive is screaming at the FCC to look into an NBC show, but not the one you are probably thinking!
President Crybaby is also big mad that Fox News dared to have a Democratic Senator on to explain that no, we are not giving free healthcare to non-citizens.
I bet you can predict who is more popular in this poll between Jimmy Kimmel and President Nitwit.Â
One of Jane Goodallâs final wishes was that President Cankles and Elon Musk be blasted off into outer space, and I believe we should honor that.
BREAKING: Actor says obvious thing.
Eric Daneâs ALS experience is heartbreaking, but Iâm glad and proud that heâs being so open and honest about what is happening to him. Itâs important that people learn how hard this disease is, and that we fund research to help find a cure or prevention.
Congratulations again to the original problemmatic Golden Bachelor.
Get well soon, Paul âBoneheadâ Arthurs.
