I think it’s a lot more nuanced than that. I truly believe some people do not realise what they’re doing is considered sexual assault. It took my then-boyfriend a long chat for him to understand what he did to me was assault, that I wasn’t being coy or playing games and really didn’t want him to ejaculate on me. I’m…

I had to scroll too far for this. I was reading a Kenneth Frampton essay on tectonic form this morning, and my god, the language that guy uses.

Architecture. It’s a whole other language of bullshit. Tell me another profession that would use the phrase (I have heard in conversation!) ‘the fenestration and public porosity helps activate the site.’

The thing that gets me is that every term has a synonym specifically reserved for Christian religious buildings.

Architecture. It’s so wide spread within the industry that it has it’s own name, archispeak. One of the more well-known examples appeared in a critique of the new Salvador Dali Museum published in Architect magazine.

Thanks to the doc on the flu vax. I’m no doc but around the industry enough that vaccines in general but flu in particular is an issue I care about and am always amazed but the power of dumb in the anti-vaxxers. If they didn’t create such a risk to others with their stupidity, I’d say let the idiots believe what they…

Jews, too, for obvious reasons.

C’mon Drew, no jargon list is complete without academic jargon.

Bullshit. Real friends reinforce your conscience, not your false alibi.

The director is Italian. Have you seen his other films? I really loved I AM LOVE.

Ok but is the original costume design crew coming on board?

“She doesn’t always say the ‘right thing’ or say it the right way”

I like Vanessa Kirby’s hair dark in the Crown so much better. I think she is naturally blond but when I saw her blonde the first time she looked like so many other actresses, as Princess Margaret she looks so striking.

Oh, LA has some egregious history - and so varied! The historic treatment of Asians and Hispanics is chock full of staggeringly well-buried shame. Red-lining neighborhoods wasn’t a “gentleman’s agreement” - it was codified. You know how Beverly Hills came to be? Because Jews couldn’t buy homes in Hancock Park or…

Yes. This isn’t one.

Now I want to watch Insecure again.

Against dozens and dozens of white people. The most recent example, Herbie Hancock, won a decade ago. For a cover album of a white lady’s songs. Before that Ray Charles wins because he died and because of the Jamie Foxx biopic. Yeah, Outkast and Lauryn Hill winning is cool, but the better part of two decades ago. Keep…

I didn’t realize there was a song called Redbone by Childish Gambino, so I had to look it up. It took me like 3 listens to realize it wasn’t some soul song from the 70's that I’ve been hearing everywhere lately and I’m still in shock when I realized that Childish Gambino was actually singing it.

I wonder if anybody else besides me thought GZA was pronounced Jizza and laughed.
