12I’m following the great example of @robertcapajpg and @your-url-is-problematic by listing the books I want to read this year. My only goal is to read at least one book per month, at least 12 books in total, to gradually get back into reading for fun. My Storygraph is here.

32558wanna underline that it was Billy Zane doing the looking out for his co-star. James Cameron very famously directed Kate Winslet in a way that left her covered in bruises and gave her double pneumonia.
and good for him. he was a pretty big star at the time, Kate was almost an unknown, and James Cameron was, yanno, himself. so for Billy to stick up for her and respect her like that was very based and sexy.
I also want to point out his mention of the consultation with wardrobe.
When shitfuck actors and directors let their misogyny and racism convince them to do “improv” or “method” that inevitably is neither impov nor method but very much harmful to their coworkers, it’s not just other actors who get hurt.
Everyone working on that set ends up in the shit.
He showed basic human dignity to his costar, as well as the people on wardrobe, the people handling props, the people behind the cameras that the glasses were flying towards.
Film is a collaboration, and the vast majority of the people who make the magic happen will never be seen, heard or known.
So it’s really fucking spectacular to see Mr Zane acknowledge the humanity of his coworkers and the collaborative nature of the art they made together.

104718please read this story of a man accidentally discovering his wife is the world’s best Tetris player
[image description: an excerpt of text that says:
“It’s funny,” I told Flewin. “We have an old Nintendo Game Boy floating around the house, and Tetris is the only game we own. My wife will sometimes dig it out to play on airplanes and long car rides. She’s weirdly good at it. She can get 500 or 600 lines, no problem.”
What Flewin said next I will never forget.
“Oh, my!”
/end id]
TL;DR on the article
The husband was writing an article on classic video game records, was surprised to find out that holding the Tetris record is a bit of a big deal, and mentions how good his wife is at it.
The guy he’s talking to mentions that the record is 327, way lower than his wifes usual scores of 500-600.
They travel to a tournament, and she goes to do her attempt. Just after she beats 327, and is climbing higher, a judge brings up to the husband that the specific version she’s playing actually has a different record of 545.
She overhears that she needs to beat 500-something, and keeps going, setting the record at 841.
