That was my first thought. My second was “is the loading area in a void”. Cuz if it ain’t, forget thought #1.

Heh, Scott Galloway fan, I presume?

I think I managed to own one of their only shirts without the flag. Even as a teen in the deep south in the mid 90s, I felt icky about that shit.

Yeah, that’s my first thought just about every time the band comes up. Darrel was an inimitable, generational talent, but their whole catalog wears Anselmo like an albatross. His lyrics age poorly, reputation even more so.

Sadly, I suspect the answer to your question comes down to who can make the biggest stink in the GOP primaries, and the price of gas come November.

Agreed, but I squirm when things get called “corrupt”, “evil”, etc without a shit-ton of qualification. I feel like it leads down a slippery slope of lazy diagnoses + lazier solutions (BURN IT ALL DOWN!!!111).

You’re talking long term consequences. None of these fuckwit culture warriors care about the long term, any more than they care about The Children, The Bible, etc.

Given Disney’s prior, successful history of gay-coded villains, yeah, I’m betting they’d be cool with it.

I don’t think “corrupt” is the word for the system portrayed. It’s just broken, by many, many factors, including perverse incentives, self interest, greed, desperation, run of the mill corruption, etc.

In fairness, GLOW cost $50M per episode, largely because all of the spandex was added in post via CGI.

And then there was the Tree of Life synagogue shooting, which was all about the whole Jewish-Immigration conspiracy theory.

Netflix just put out a very flattering doc aboutSpaceX, but even in that, at no point do you get the impression he has any handle on operations. And I don’t mean to minimize the importance of showing up with the cash and the vision, but yeah, dude isn’t offering ideas on how to make the rockets not blow up.

The problem in this country is that everyone believes they’re the smart one and everyone else is the greater fool.

“Glazewski’s practice...didn’t change any minds...”

That hate gives their secret truth its value, making them all special little Chosen Ones.

If it helps, the only grammy voter I ever knew sure as fuck didn’t know the name of anyone under 55 and/or not on the cover of every tabloid.

Oh, I always thought he lost that job due to 9/11 jokes...

Your professor desperately wanted you to bumble around a bunch and make his day more interesting.

I don’t get the impression the guy has a sense of humor. So, “lit” like all of us are on fire, sure.

Dude could retire tomorrow richer than you or I will ever be.
