If I’d consider anyone on this planet during my lifetime to be or have been a Bodhisattva, it would be Fred Rogers. No one else comes close.

It’s too bad that Go West’s “We Close Our Eyes” was not a big hit in the US. If there was any 80s video that lends itself to being made fun of (besides “Dancing In The Street”, of course), it’s that one. The song itself is a fantastic example of 80s synthed-up blue-eyed soul. Peter Cox—yes, that’s his real name—could…

I just read an article on The Guardian today where Ryuichi Sakamoto said Jóhannsson was someone he wanted to work with. Alas.

Grew up in a Pentecostal fundy household. In 1982, aged 13, I was not allowed to watch any MTV (would see it at friend’s houses). No going to the movies (I did anyway), no pop radio (was losing interest in the Top 40, so whatever). All verboten. My single guardian worked, though, so in the summer, it was WMSE from 8…

Trump is simply a tool. What’s happening now has been in the works since Goldwater.

Technically, Kraftwerk has only had one bona fide Top 40 hit in the US: Autobahn in 1975. Which, oh my Ralf, that’s insane. How Tour de France was not a hit outside the clubs, I don’t know. There’s too many albums with great songs on them to pick one song that should’ve been a hit here. Like Computer Love, or The Model…

She may as well have spelt out in all caps OMG I AM SO JEALOUS!!!!!!

I said that a few times to friends, too, then I realized that Bowie would NOT have wanted to leave his beloved wife, children, and grandchild behind to have to live through what’s coming.

“Save money” = give away our tax dollars to already-obscenely rich people and their corporations... so they can hoard it like modern day Collyer brothers, or something. And racism. Always racism.

All that Brit spelling and they don’t call it a “roundabout”?

It occurs to me with your comment that if these racist fucks ever find a guy as smart, as charismatic, and as good-looking as, say, David Bowie, humanity will be in real trouble.

Gimme that baby! So cute!

Of course, it’s too bad that there were too few people on their side to help them fend off asshole men in their day. I’m younger than these signatories, but in my day (the 90s), egregious shit also happened with men that is absolutely unacceptable now, and it’s impossible to go back and punch some motherfuckers. I…

That’s Roy Cohn. Lawyer during the Rosenberg trial in the 50s, adviser to Joe McCarthy during the witch hunts for Communists, and also political player in NYC and adviser to the likes of Fred Trump and Cheeto until he died in 1986. A horrible, nasty man he was, and a sell-out to his own people.

And we also wait to see what websites the telecoms decide that no one can see, no matter what.

“So you agree? You think you’re really smart?”

Re: Tucker Max - ::sound Jackeé Harry makes when she’s disgusted::

Young men attacking defenseless old women, and while there’s some true believers in the ranks, they are few, with the actual unspoken goal being to grab power and rule over a community? Yeah, that’s exactly like ISIS and alt-righters in the US. But how does one stop these men? They’re getting out of hand with their…

My understanding is that if Jann Wenner (who founded both Rolling Stone magazine and this joint) is not a personal fan of an artist in the main category, that artist isn’t even considered for nomination.
