“The most important person of all to appear on stage that day was not a politician but a man named Stephen Willeford, a Sutherland Springs, Texas NRA member who ran out of his house last November to exchange gunfire with a mass shooter who had just killed 26 people in a Baptist Church. Willeford—notwithstanding the…

On one hand you’re not wrong: It was a very understandable choice she made. But on the other: It was exactly the kind of poison pill that would only magnify with time. Perhaps I’m being too glib in calling Pink/Rose’s choice “easy.” But I do think that it’s a form of ducking the issue and an exemplar of her tendency…

“This whole movie gonna be about cheeseburgers?”

It complicates the situation with the Diamonds, for sure. It also provides a possible path towards reconciliation.

I can’t help but picture Pink/Rose as a rich dilettante activist type. You know the type of you ever went to college: they are kind hearted and well meaning, often repping for noble causes, but totally oblivious to their own privilege and totally convinced they have all the answers, so the rest of us better just go…

(Copy and pasting what I wrote at The Avocado. Uh, it’s a lot)

I sea what you did there.

Standards in yellow face ain’t what they used to be. Back in the day at least they’d of had the good sense to cast Yul Brynner.

Last Jedi ruled. Force Awakens was a far worse movie. You change MY mind.

Oh Christ, what are the manbabies upset about now? That they cast a black man as Lando?

Make this your mantra: Stay mad. Write checks. Go vote.

And further, he manages to SUCK at everything else. If you removed the whole “He tells in like it is! You triggered, snowflake?!” shtick from him, he would literally have no selling points and nobody would be debating how friggin’ incompetent and ignorant he is.

Danke schoen! Funny you mention the new Speedy Ortiz. Started that one in the car on the way home. Didn’t even know We Are Scientists had a new album, but I’ll admit that they’re one of those bands I’d always “get to one day.”

Gotta have a back up ready in case the spear fails me.

It’s telling and downright troubling that they sacked people for being insufficiently enthusiastic about Trump. Politics should be about the policy, not the person right? And yet, a disturbing amount of the right in this country has devolved into being a personality cult around Trump. No president in my lifetime has…

I approve of this. Make it happen, Marvel.

Why thank you! Can’t wait to get my nose off the grindstone and put the album on.

Thanks for the reminder. I gotta get on that Courtney Barnett album. “Sometimes I sit and think...” was great.

Fuck. Yes. My copy arrives in the mail today. And it’s my birthday to boot. Happy birthday to me.
