“In a pop song, I was going after health insurance companies and corruption—‘Health insurance rip off lying’; the FDA, the Food And Drug Administration, and the hypocrisy of the war on drugs, which was not real; ‘big bankers’ and Wall Street. To allude to all that stuff in a pop song was, in retrospect, a…

“Around this same time, as public perception of Spector’s work had begun to dip and rumors began to spread about him threatening people with a gun during recording sessions”

Definitely had more than one large pizza delivery to a third party (person running a school function wasn’t the secretary that ordered that morning, parent ordering for kid) where the recipient would ask what the person that ordered said the tip should be when they signed for the food. Don’t ask the person getting a…

I love lamp.

I think it’s only 40 bucks

You can’t get ye flask!

I also used to just be able to go and buy a record or turn on the radio and know absolutely nothing about the artist. For better or worse, the internet has led to everything having a much larger context.

I told my friend that it conveniently came after he more or less conceded and the results were confirmed - the lame duck has been totally defanged. He couldn’t get a cup of water if he had to politick for it. His already lame threats mean nothing now.

There’s a reason you barely ever see it happen - because even if it happens a lot, it happens so quickly.

Oooh, the brown goop was melting wax!

He is an actual doctor, though I wouldn’t visit his internal medicine practice with how much not-doctoring he’s involved in. Real doctors work on patients most days and keep up-to-date on current journals and research. Pinsky trades on his name and likeness in the media.

Also, I’ve never seen anyone handing me food at the drive-thru wearing a mask properly. I’m honestly surprised there haven’t been more events tied to food prep workers.

Yeah I read this as the family waited till after the holidays to announce it so they wouldn’t have a bunch of media requests while they’re trying to grieve together.

I’m interested, but I use my parents’ cable credentials to sign in to HBO Max so I’m no use to them unless I talk about it on social media and use hashtags.

I mean, it’s streaming for a month, and then it’ll be gone till it would have originally hit whatever its original streaming date was.

Confirmation bias. A good counter-example these days would be that the Harry Potter kids all seem to have grown up to be normal people.

literally the only thing I can think of is Lazy Sunday
