"The world is on its ass."

Excellent commentary from a conservative columnist on this phenomenon. I don't agree with everything he says here, but he points out the hypocrisy the current Republican party is based on, and decries it: http://time.com/4675860/don…

We'll be able to get that from the WH press room shortly: https://twitter.com/nytimes…

Right? Either step up or step the fuck off, as Preston Broadus would say.

It was also the reason Trump's presidency was supposed to be better than Hillary's, if you listened to a particularly barmy commentator here. They were going to stop him from doing anything overtly terrible. Here's hoping, I say.

I thought that was the value of James's artisan marshmallow company these days.

Take him seriously, not literally. Or do I have that backwards?

Mea culpa. Fixed.

Oh my god, Vincent Cassell would have been AMAZING in that part. Goddammit I really want to see that now.

The Untouchables' score is so goddamn brilliant. The title sequence still raises the hair on the back of my neck. The Mission is my favourite of his work, but The Untouchables is a close second.

She might have been too good for the rest of the cast. Let's not forget the portrayal of other French noblefolk involved Malkovich's Midwestern accent, Uma Thurman's faux-Mid-Atlantic put-on, and whatever Keanu Reeves was doing. That's not to denigrate Malkovich (or Swoosie Kurtz, or even Thurman) but a real…

Cher I can maybe agree with. Olympia Dukakis was sublime in Moonstruck. Ever had a Catholic grandmother? That sigh Dukakis does is what it's like ALL THE TIME.

One of those people for whom Scientology didn't do as much as she'd hoped.

There's also the fact that, as reviewers pointed out at the time, Alex is only finally dispatched by the "pure" wife who hasn't strayed. (Even the androgynous name Alex serves to reinforce the fact that a home with a womanly woman is what every man should aspire to and treasure.)

I don't think O'Reilly and Stewart want to fuck each other. Maher definitely wants to fuck leggy blondes. He might respect some of them outside of that, but his primary interest is their babe-itude, which he has admitted himself.

I hadn't heard of him before the Leslie Jones thing. I hadn't heard his voice until these tapes surfaced. I wish both of those things were still true.

Another problem is that Jones is going to be an adviser to the president.

I have loads of bandwidth for both, and it's just about maxed out this evening. *cracks open another beer, toasts the idea that consequences still exist*

Yes, although today I saw someone tag another person who is using his name and picture. Not sure if it's him back on Twitter or just a fan.

The imprint was one that had published Michelle Bachman and other right-wing nutjobs. The idea that transgendered transgender people, black people, and feminists (to name just three) are somehow less than straight white Christians would have fit in with the tone perfectly.
