Just 'cuz she gets with Kevin Gnapoor doesn't mean she couldn't also have a Huge. Lesbian. Crush.

Not just because we put The Shining on Netflix the other night, but I'm now reading Shelley Duvall's performance as Olive Oyl being the kind of girl who likes to watch.

The cultural shift that's allowed for open representation post-Stonewall lets us run the gamut of the cinematic market - from mid/high-brow awards bait in the vein of Brokeback, Milk, The Kids Are Alright, Moonlight, A Single Man, The Danish Girl. To pieces where queerness and LGBT themes are certainly present, but…

I was 70% expecting Ignatiy to essentially be rehashing Celluloid Closet. So, getting a broader, deeper survey here was most certainly a well-received surprise.

"Suddenly" is my favorite track of the Xanadu soundtrack.

I'm honestly surprised Trump hasn't just canceled these things entirely and made the only official news outlet his Twitter freed. Russia Today

The more I think about it, the more I think I'm starting to follow the editing critique this season has been getting. At least I think I do.

Oh, I usually go for a minimum of 90%. And even then…

Oh, the caveats go without saying - though one supposes the times being what they are, still bear repeating. Particularly with something as generally skeevy as the Bachelor(ette) franchise, and its associated parties, having to parse the veracity and reliability of reporting by EW.com and TMZ is plenty precarious, not…

It's not irrelevant, but what social media and public statements I've been seeing from contestants and concerned parties seem to revolve around affirmations (or, you know - the opposite of that) of character. As opposed to eyewitness accounts.

Will file that away. How do you feel about coffee grounds?

And to think, malleability of truth, plasticity of memory, and subjectivity of experience used to be topics of the academic left.

I suppose it's no small part of the reason most of my Taco Tuesdays have switched over to other protein preparations. Shredded chicken, chicken tinga, carnitas, barbacoa all give me much finer control over the moisture content that goes into final assembly.

I suppose I should clarify that self-correction is an inherent part of what makes the scientific process so valuable, and it's a principle that should be applied to good journalism.

It seems to me like the problem with this particular and specific CNN article being that the writers and editors simply didn't put sufficient due diligence into researching and corroborating their sources. Which brings up the unfortunate spectre that the fundamental gist of the article is essentially true, but…

I'm thinking the dryness and leanness actually help. With ground beef, the amount of juice and fat I'm draining off always astounds (and feels like a waste). And even then, there's always enough I just can't drain away that has a nasty habit of making my tacos soggy.

I've looked at that attachment without getting too serious about it - let's just say the pasta and noodle attachments I bought some years back have not seen the workout I originally envisioned for them, despite my abiding love of carbs. I'm guessing that attachment can get a finer grind than what one generally gets…

I hope you sense that I'm mostly just joshing you.

Of the several rotating list of actors that the right wingnut media like to point to as motivators of the anti-Trump conspiracy, CNN is certainly on the list.
