You can keep your sauerkraut. Only liberty cabbage for me!

I stopped reading Zizek about five years ago. I wonder how many (dozens of) books he's written in the meantime. He'd like you, by the way, because he likes Stalin.

Liberal self-righteous chub, brought to you daily by Donald Trump.

Come to think of it, I've never actually watched Fox & Friends…though I've watched hours of Daily Show clips that highlight its lunacy.

I watched a couple the other night (by chance, flipping channels at 3 am). I don't remember it being nearly that sleazy back in the day. At least three times, the word "booty" was an answer on the board. Tsk tsk.

True. For most famous people, I might love their work, but that doesn't translate into a desire to bask in their presence (and preserve the moment forever with a photo). It's an actor…who cares? But then there's the much smaller category of famous people I love (e.g., Patrick Stewart)…it'd be great to chat with…

As Chomsky points out, the original seal of Massachusetts Bay Colony has an image of an Indian with the words "Come over and help us" coming out of his mouth (i.e. "we savages beg you Europeans to save us").

To clarify: I merely believed that there was a city in Indiana called Pawnee (and why not? there are lots of places called Pawnee). Not that the show was in any way factual in its depiction of that city. So, not as dumb as thinking that pirates were not real, I think. But I'll let others be the judge.

Well, "This is a true story" always meant "This is a true story" (more or less), until Fargo. They cheated.

Took me awhile to figure out that Pawnee, IN is a fictional place.

Stop that. It's silly.

Have you seen who's on Thursday's WTF? Richard Thompson & Lemmy!!! Two of my all-time favorites…can't wait. (Found it very difficult to give a fuck about today's guest, Lake Bell.)

Transforming into the Great Red Dragon (ongoing project)

I loved that early 80s series: I studied it thoroughly when I was a wee lad. You could wrap your brain around the entirety of the Marvel universe back then (before every character had been killed off and resurrected three times, changed powers, appeared in various alternative universes, etc.).

You seem to be inventing a case study of an imaginary guy who's "proudly" against technology and wants to tell everyone about it, waving a banner and all that. I agree, that guy's probably a dick…but I've never met him, and don't feel threatened by him at all, so I'm not sure why we're discussing him. I certainly…

Well, above you suggested that the person who's resistant to the latest gadgets and social media secretly just doesn't like people. I chimed in to say: that's ridiculous. In fact, it's probably the other way around…if you're "socializing" by screwing around on your iPhone instead of talking to the people right next…

That might be the current fashion of engaging with people…that doesn't mean it's the only possible way of engaging with people, and it certainly doesn't equate to not liking people. MacKaye's point is that if it's a debased, inadequate way of engaging with people (or living your life/spending your time), then who…

I have zero photos of magnificent meals I created/consumed. The idea that I'm missing out on something beautiful and wonderful because I didn't document the process of cooking and eating for posterity is completely baffling to me. And yes, I can imagine someone thinking, "I wish I spent more time talking to real…
