Yeah.

I was just checking if you were listening. But many see him as a very particular, limited thing, which has a great similarity to one-trick gimmickry, when in fact he is a big, bright shining star with a very large phallus.

Here's an opinion that will link a few things together for you: Leslie Jones, Billy Eichner and Kyle Mooney are all very funny, despite the false appearance of being a one trick gimmick.

But its charm resides in its permanence. Don't take Elliott's last bit of freedom away from him!

But Adam Sandler falls over in his chair once in Punch-Drunk Love! And he has a clapper thing to turn on and off his light! It's a comedy! It is! Really! It's not mainly about the drama of a very awkward, lonely man with an overbearing family that finds some love! There's tons of laughs! I remember!

Yeah, but think of how sad he would be if he didn't ever get a career. Can you imagine sitting next to this guy at the bar sans *any* success?

An entire movie just burped itself into existence, congratulations. It explains everything. The movie starts with Donald and his whole family at the dead end of a coked out bender, with Donald ranting and ranting and ranting, everyone else tired and not really listening anymore. Then, Ivanka sits straight up in her…

Elie Wiesel, a pop culture giant.

That time traveling Figure 8 b-side from 1996? Yes!

Let alone the fact that the vast majority of 70 year olds in developed countries use laptops daily and have for half a decade. The good material for a joke about old people and electronics is that they are just as addicted / annoying-about-it as the very young youths.

Since Stuff N Fluff intensified the pattern, a further intensification was required. It's just the rules.

What a fascinating critique you've provided us with.

That's a common reaction to those who don't buy the speculative identity of thought and being and just how troubling that identity is in a late capitalistic society. Read better books, more often, more carefully.

That's fascinating and extraordinarily revelatory. When transcendence hits, one's life in capital is on the tip of your tongue.

Yeah, there may be a downside to being reflective, it might hamper some of the id-spewing that is so crucial to art. You're certainly not going to get any of that primal howling out of Bejar (though, he does his best at it in the EP cut of Notorious Lightning). But, in general, I do think that that reflective…

Can we be best friends? Does *anyone* get that he is the first legitimate contender for pop *artist*? His work blows everyone else's out of the fucking water, it's not even close. Someone hold me, please. This world is fucked.

It's cool, but it is explicitly religious at every turn. Resurrections, Jesus Christ, semen, et al. I get that it works as just a rock album as well, that's undoubtedly the entry point. It works on an immediate level.

I'm sorry for trying to verbalize something that you can only grunt about?

The album garners this type of reaction because it summons the worst political disaster in history and manages to still find religious redemption, but without painting over the world-historical pain that has been summoned. He's an atheistic mystic (whether he explicitly knows that or not). He gets 'it'. And he's…

And now I feel like the only person in the universe who didn't like Green Room. That was the most nihilistic movie I've ever seen. And it was also just casually nihilistic, like, 'of course the world is this shitty!' Fucking disgusting tripe. And it's not like I'm above horror — The Texas Chainsaw Massacre has a…
