It might be my advanced age, but I kinda like the O.G. Hannibal Lecter, bad opinions and all. He got halfway to a good opinion here. Maybe less than halfway.

Silly Devin Nunes, that’s for the SEC to investigate. File a complaint like the rest of us plebes.

Olivia Wilde as Pauline Kael, but dubbed with Jessie Buckley’s voice. Man, that Kael sequence in I’m Thinking Of Ending Things (2020) was a cinematic gift.

This could have been sorted out without the police. This was a possible lethal use of police resources.

Clear has to go. There should be just two lines for passengers. One for those vetted by the FBI and TSA, which is TSA Pre. And a line for everyone else.

Swift went supernova. The only way forward now is to cool down. I think she is off to get married and produce kids. This Kelce fella is not a typical Swift boyfriend.

I think a 7.x review from Pitchfork is incoming.

I would expect Baldwin to get the same 18 months. Turns out, Guiterrez-Reed should have pled!

If only we had a functioning Congress that would:

I like Dallas a lot. For 15 years or so it was my first choice for a retirement city after NYC wears me down (29 years and counting there). Pity Texas is not a free state. It is one of the least free. Granted, since its founding, Texas has always been a little fascist. But since the GOP became a death cult circa…

This is great news for car enthusiasts. But can we be real about Texas? I just completed my last ever visit to Texas (El Paso-Marfa-Fredericksburg-Vidor-Houston-Dallas). It is a full-on fascist state. The government is obsessed with encouraging citizens to turn against their neighbors (or shoot them). Everyone can…

Airlines should be encouraging checked bags, not raising fees which only encourages people attempting to carry-on or gate check, which causes costly gate delays. Those who are forced to check bags on their travel day are going to pay near $100 fees for their bags.

New York should rename JFK airport DJT. First, we gave this nation the orange man (you’re welcome), and second, we need to remember that he improbably became president and nearly killed us all. And he might do it again.

That 18th century flute she played  is cursed. 

And evil hairline.

That was it. Her Les Mis casting, performance and Academy lobbying was all designed to get her a statuette. Don’t hate her. Hate the star machine. Oh, and she does ooze Rich New York Girl energy. Which is what she has always been.

Lately, since June 2023, I have only had to show my state ID to the TSA Pre agent. I assumed if my name matches a flight passenger later that day, I am allowed in.

Another triggered wingnut.

Of course, a data broker in the Caribbean could sell data to a broker in another territory, who could then sell the data to China. There’s no easy way to enforce this.

The 15 month effort to impeach Joe Biden unofficially ended today. It’s over.
