I actually have been wondering if part of the reason that conservative media is SO fixated on blowing up these trivial things is because between vaccinations and the relief bill, things for Americans will start to improve across the board, and they have to find SOMETHING to keep their base angry.

Listen, unless you’re Steve Martin or a felt frog, I probably want you to leave the banjo at home.

The entire soundtrack has this wonderful quality of like... comforting melancholy if that makes sense. “Tomorrow is Another Day” is musically kind of downbeat, but just incredibly lovely.

Like, I feel like I’ve gone back and forth on how I related to Angela’s parents. When I was young and watching it in the 90's I clearly identified with the kids. When I watched it again in my 30's I related more to her parents, but then when I watched it recently in my 40's I’m like “Why are these parents so fucking

I’m also worried that without a mask mandate, essential workers who WANT to do their best to stay safe by wearing masks and distancing at work will end up harassed by customers and disciplined by employers for wearing masks that ‘impact their perceived customer service.’ We already have stories of customers refusing

Except stuff like this doesn’t just effect Texas. No matter how careful surrounding states try to be, inevitably folks will travel over to Texas where they can party freely and then leave a trail of COVID behind them as they return home.

Fellow Gen Xer Here: I don’t understand the appeal of tapes, which where kind of a cumbersome medium even at their peak, but I definitely understand the appeal of vinyl with all the pretty, pretty cover art. A lot of records come with a download nowadays, so I probably actively listen to the music more often on my

I wasn’t SCARED scared as a kid, but I do remember it being a bit of a jump scare when Elliot came across ET for the first time in the cornfield.

Dark, but accurate.

“Lauren Boehbert, against the Equality Act, says as the mother of four boys, says raising them “to be men,”

You have to RAISE them to be men? If gender and masculine coded behavior are innate traits tied specifically to biological sex, shouldn’t they end up with these traits without you doing anything deliberate to

But come on. Do you know what would happen if we locked up every guy who made love to a sixteen-year-old?”

It makes zero sense at all, but I was halfway through this article and deeply confused before I realized that I was mixing up ‘The Bridges of Madison County’ with ‘Midnight in the Garden of Good & Evil.’ To be fair; they were both hit books about picturesque locations that had film adaptations by Clint Eastwood that

“just don’t be assholes! Treat each other as human beings, have some modicum of respect.”

“they can welcome another winner to their ranks in “Romancing The Beef.” It’s a more grounded entry than its predecessors”

I noticed that, too. He’s bringing an awful big suitcase back to Texas for someone who was just dropping off his kids.

Ooh! Good call!

Aw, are we EVER gonna get ‘Something Wicked This Way Comes?’

I would be SHOCKED if they didn’t find a way to have Tamisha make a surprise return. It’s not like it hasn’t happened before, and I would hope the producers would know that the audience would HAAATE it if Tamisha was dismissed this early.

I mean, I certainly did. But I was also nine years old, so it wasn’t a word that I was regularly going to encounter in too many other contexts.

Literally the only thing I know about her is that Trixie Mattel did a makeup tutorial of Jojo’s signature look, so I kind of assumed she was an icon for the baby gays anyway.
