What's more important?

Exactly.   There are plenty of valid criticisms of the Third Reich, but nobody can deny that it was one of the high points in the history of men's fashion.

Why would a fashion designer be anti-Nazi?   German WW2 uniforms — particularly the SS uniforms — remain some of the most stylish clothing ever created.  The Nazis were legitimate fashion geniuses.  You'd think Vidal would have shown a little respect.

Sorry.  I was pretty drunk when I posted that.  It seemed funny at the time.

I am a turkey
And you are all turkeys
And we are turk turkeys
And turkey turk turkeys

"Chick bass player" is about as cliche 90's as it gets.  if I were starting a 90's nostalgia band I would definitely insist on a female bassist.

Can we please stop calling this stupid asshole a liberal?   He's an apologist and excuse-maker for whatever Democrats do, even when they voluntarily do the most heinously illiberal shit imaginable.   Call him a Democrat if you will, but don't call him a liberal.

In the past week I got back into Starcraft 2 after an extended absence and watched a bunch of Ret's and Idra's streams over the weekend.  Zerg still sucks ass.  Some things never change.

Julia Louis-Dreyfus is only two and a half years younger than Madonna.   You'd think it was two and a half decades.   Madonna is a desiccated hag, while JLD is still quite porkable.

I fell hard for Beach House immediately, so I am cooler than you.

Any relation to L. Patrick Gray?  Can he tell us some juicy details about the documents from Howard Hunt's safe?

No pan flute?   WTF?

I think it could be really cool if she reinvented herself as a scary deranged hag.   I mean really embrace the whole hag concept with gusto, like a pop-music Miss Havisham, or a Norma Desmond or Baby Jane type character. It would be a risk but it couldn't fail any worse than the shit she's been trying lately.

"Had it not occurred to you that only now we have the troop levels necessary to facilitate a reasonably clean withdrawal?"

No, it didn't occur to me, because the notion is so stupid.  What the hell is a "clean withdrawal" in the context of an irretrievably lost war that was a ghastly mistake?  And how do you…

He's pulling us out?  Are you fucking stupid?  We have 90,000 soldiers in Afghanistan - almost triple the 33,000 Dubya had there when he left office.   Even after Barack's surge troops are withdrawn at the end of this year, there will be 68,000 remaining.  That's more than DOUBLE what Bush had there.   Yeah, there is…

You are far too kind calling the anti-war left derelict.   The anti-war left is COMPLICIT.   Who will ever take those people seriously again?   Next time a Republican is in the White House, and the protest marchers magically reappear in the streets, conservatives and independents will just roll their eyes and say "oh…

Maddow is a disgusting hypocrite when it comes to Barack Obama.  Glenn Greenwald's interview with her really pissed me off.   He asked her a direct question about Obama's flouting and effectively DESTROYING the War Powers Resolution during his Libyan adventure, and she just bobbed and weaved for a few minutes before…

The art direction on Singin' in the Rain is pretty awesome, especially on the last scene with Cyd Charisse.  That scene looks totally badass.  That movie doesn't get enough credit for just how cool it looks.

Judy Garland?  Cross-dressing?   Color me there.

Discovered and listened to Black Mountain's Wilderness Heart at least 10 times all the way through.  Rock solid songs all around, and some are brilliant. I rarely ever hear an album that I like all the way through.   I don't know how I missed this when it came out.  I loved In The Future but somehow just didn't get…
