Its still seem so insane that “The Thing” was pretty much hated by critics at the time and did mediocre at the box office.   Its my favorite Carpenter film and probably one of my favorite horror movies ever.   I guess at the time the center stage thing was the creature effects and gore but what that movie does so…

Where are all the sports fans telling him to “stick to sports” and leave his personal politics out of it, like they did with this guy?

Will the right say “shut up and dribble” here? 

The football coach for a school like Michigan is always speaking for the university, much more so than any professor or dean or chancellor or president or any other person most people on campus wouldn’t even recognize on sight. 

Oh thank God. I feel like all we were missing in this debate about human rights and medicine was the deeply informed opinion of a professional football coach.

Hey, let’s just be happy this wasn’t a slide show.

The future republicans want.

35? Reeves was about 50 when the first film was released.

what a dull comment

OK: Republicans are openly and determinedly gunning for changing the US government into a repressive theocracy, and no doubt are studying Iran for examples of how to keep a modern, diverse country under their monolithic thumb.

Iran is their wet dream.

Meanwhile, Republicans are watching closely and taking notes.
