I agree about the rulebook, which is why I hate terms like “Canon” for any artform. It’s an implication of objectivity in art.

Fuck this weak ass shit. Birth of a Nation is an awful film but guess what, D.W. Griffith’s “Intolerance” isn’t! Ya ever seen that?? I damn sure didn’t see you mention it, which would have added nuance to this Honey Ham of an article.

There is a great film called Mamma Roma so I feel a bit torn on this one.

Fellini would have appreciated it, too!

Autechre has always gone by æ, and their logo from 20 years ago:

So in the past week both Queer Eye and Grimes/Elon Musk have ripped off Autechre shamelessly.

Random aside, but the Queer Eye logo is a shameless ripoff of Autechre’s from circa-1998.

Yes because every single person in every state that has idiotic leadership obviously has supported that leadership with a full-throated vitriol and deserve to be left to suffer w/o potential overflow resources from states with less idiotic leadership.

Nah fuck that. Doesn’t matter if the author of this specific article was around for any of that onslaught. They represent Jezebel and it’s incredibly shitty to not even slightly acknowledge their own previous position in this conflict.

There’s also the odd use of “stale” as a descriptor for concrete. That one had me curious enough to actually google. I could only find references to unused concrete going bad after a period of time and nothing related to smell.

100% this

Joan Summers comes across as a tryhard frontrunning. Most of her content comes across as either vapid hating or aspirational ass kissing. Nothing by way of real content.

Pretty sure Lynne Ramsay would tell her to fuck off and would be entirely justified in doing so.

I’m going against the general consensus here: Sarah Silverman has always tried to carry a varying level of “edge lord” to her comedy. There are multiple instances of this (the blackface incident, her super try-hard take in The Aristocrats, etc.).

$100 it was John Canzano

Yeah that’s definitely not Austin

Any time she claims to be from a purple state and doesn’t give a shout-out to Prince, she loses a point in the primaries.

This is too good

Can’t believe no one mentioned the Michael Dukakis tank incident. That was the most damaging of ‘em all.
