I can totally see temperance and no-booze and no-fun in this tense, anxious suspicious and paranoid White House. Uptight pricks like god-botherer Pence walking around, no wonder they're monstrously unhappy people. Hey, if you're actively working for evil, I would imagine the sweet lull of booze might dull the…

The owner of the National Enquirer is a personal "friend" of Trump's but I have no idea what friendship with a freak like Donald Trump really means. I guess it means they use each other in a mutually agreeable way. Same with TMZ, that shithole, the owner of that is also "friends" with Trump, so you'll never read a…

That's why Amy has always been Secretly Awesome.
She does make herself mightily scarce these days.
Which I respect, I would stay out of it all too.

Imagine Chelsea Clinton's husband being installed as the top advisor to the President, and put in charge of Everything, from Middle East peace to the opioid crisis to re-structuring the entire federal government. Imagine Chelsea Clinton accepting a $100 million pledge from Saudi Arabia for some amorphous undefined…

Hey- I told you guys I would never repeat the story of how Shelley Winters coaxed me into manhood on that boat that one summer. I beg you, don't ask me about the "hot dog thrown down a hallway" thing again.

Grand Duchess Ivanka is a total fraud, she's just as much of a venal greedhead as anyone else in her extended crime family, the Trumps and the Kushners. She's all-in on the scam, and it's idiotic not to see that clearly. Oh, but she's good-looking (that chin implant did wonders) and she's
"poised", so of course she…

It's not just right-wing media, it's also vastly overpaid bimbos like Frank Bruni at the NYTimes, and Andrew Sullivan at NYMag, Screeching about intolerant campus liberals as this gigantic disgraceful problem on the left, because Berkeley merely re-scheduled Ann Coulter's hate fest and of course she loved making…

Perfect place to film retro 70s-style porn films?

Yeah, but I mean, Shelley Winters, dude.

There is much to admire in Beatriz For Dinner’s attention to character detail.
Yes, but how did she taste?

Seems like politics and pop culture have melded, with our reality-show President, off in his own mental fucking galaxy. It's impossible to ignore.

Think you mean Manchester..?

Whatever, I am out of patience with stupid bastards and bitches who type hateful xenophobic shit all day long. We have to make being a rotten racist creep garbage person on the internet NOT a viable career path or viable job option.

Tzatziki is so wonderful. Chicken souvlaki was my go-to at my local Greek diner in NYC, and I always asked for extra tzatziki because it is splendid. I love Greek food too, generally. Lovely.

That would kill their schtick though, their antagonism and rivalry. At least in the UK, the US scarcely gives a shit. They need their rivalry so the Daily Mail has something to write about when either of them has a new album out, and that most people will ignore. British people love Oasis and Robbie Williams…

I just like to imagine Daffy Duck saying, "perspicacity".

Also, publishing physical books in bound volumes with glossy paper is expensive. And considering that there's actually a tiny sliver of the population that wants to shell out for ancient comics, I suppose I get that.

All good, my friend. I really appreciate your kindness, I get my blues sometimes, so your saying something nice to me actually means a lot. Thank you for that. And your post was much more than fine, it's good to talk. Best to you and see you around. Enjoy the discussions, I imagine we both do.

All a cool thing. Ariana Grande and her fans ..what a horror that that happened. Monstrous, but saw many good vibes online from this concert, which is swell. Ariana conducted herself beautifully throughout, I like that she dressed down for her teenaged fans, it was not about the sexy, it was I guess to share a…

I am just fascinated by someone taking "The Cake from MacArthur Park" as a screen name. I confess it makes me giggle and I'm off to listen to that song right now.
