P.S. Here are a few things that fueled this newsletter/me this week:
♥️ ‘People have all kinds of sides to them’: Love loved Disney and Pixar’s “Turning Red.” Can’t recommend it enough.
🤠 ‘I didn’t betray you!’ If you like “Succession” and/or “Euphoria,” you’ve got to see this Brian Cox sketch on Jimmy Kimmel’s show.
🏀 ‘What’s a seed?’ I giggled at this WaPo TikTok explainer on how basketball brackets work. It’s so good.
