My grandpa was a doctor, flu shots became a Thanksgiving tradition. Literally instead of going around the table and saying what we were thankful for, he went around the table and gave everyone their flu shot. Incidentally, that was something I was very thankful for.

It reminds me of Tig Notaro desperately trying to have her own biological baby because her mom passed away and the possibility that the child might look or act like her mom inspired Tig to try against the very huge odds. I’d never seriously considered having my own biological children until that link was made.

Shouldn’t we mention The Guardian’s newest cinema columnist (one Harry Windsor!)? 

Yes to vigorous friction. People go on about making sure you use extremely hot water but the point where temperature will do anything is 100C. People who just rinse under a hot tap during flu season may as well not be doing anything!

Bojack is the title character, but the rest of the core characters have developed significantly. I found the endings for everyone else to be extremely satisfying. In terms of their relationships with Bojack, Princess Carolyn made it clear that she could stay in touch but not in a professional manner - she’s done…

Bullshit, a real Canuck would have apologized after that rant.

i have never in my life wanted more to reach through my computer scream and grab a person by the throat and choke the life out of him. HOw dare he. How fucking dare he. He’s a fucking traitor and a rapist and a criminal and he’s up there giving fucking rush fucking limbaugh a god damned medal like it’s a special…

I hate it, too. But it’s a nod to her dad’s album cover for Astroworld.

This has nothing to do with Dirt Bag but Im waiting for Jez's take on the new tape from the Depp/Heard saga.

He’s a very talented guitarist who might’ve been an icon if he’d gotten a lyricist.

Bernie is aware of “Reptilia”. But back in his day, the song was called “Champs” and the band was Wire.

The rest being what? Their cultural nationalism that allows them to endorse laws specifically designed to target migrant Muslim populations that do not meet their standards of being a true Frenchmen with the hopes of driving out of the public square? Is that part of the rest?

The French are obviously not a monolith, and this kind of thing isn’t representative of all of French culture, but it’s also not not French culture. In the same way that being horribly nationalistic, racist, Islamophic and xenophobic is not-not French culture, so too is this not-not that. 

He knew, did not give a fuck, is tired of being hassled now, wants to go back to raping as usual. Statement written as he listened and sang along:

I’ve complained about this before, and here I am again. *Why* do you keep framing excerpts from Jessica Simpson’s memoir that deal with her childhood sexual abuse as something salacious that you want to read immediately so you’ll be up on all the ~*hot goss*~?!!

Now You See Me 2 should have fucking been called And Now You Don't, and it makes me irrationally angry that it wasn't.
