No in-ear monitors, horrible sound, David Bowie staring at you, and he just belts it out perfectly like it’s no big deal. What an amazing talent he had. Devastated. Thanks for sharing that.

Stardew Valley got me (perhaps still is getting me) through the election aftermath. It’s such a weird little charmer, like Don’t Starve.

I quit a job I had for 22 years to do my own thing, and now I’m thinking I fucked up pretty hard. The business was going down the tubes in a slow death as our particular niche industry dies. Everyone was close to or in their 60s except me (more than a decade younger than them), so they were looking to ride out the…

Homemade kahlua, and vanilla extract are super easy to make. And, not to be that person, but if you make fruitcake  right (i.e, early so you can soak the bejesus out of it with good liquor), anyone would scarf it down.

I could see them all being performers, if there’s a chorus in it, but songwriters? Seems amazingly unlikely.

So...how does it take 13 people to write a five-minute song? Is it because all the writers on an album have to be given credit for every song on that album?

I think that photo answers your question. What journalist/casting director/producer wants to lose their access to the precious Daffleck Duo by ragging on Little Affleck’s pure assholery?

But only New England-style clam chowder. Manhattan clam chowder deserves a short on Hulu, at best.

So, let’s just be honest here. The conditions aren’t going to get better. And we are about 50 days away from installing the so-called Leader of the Free World who calls climate change a hoax. How long does this reef, that took thousands of years of years to build, actually have? Five years? A decade at most? I…

Sorry, how does infusing alcohol with spices for a month make them “weaker”? Is that a typo or is there a chemical process at work here of which I’m unaware?

Given that Reagan was rapidly sinking into dementia at the time, that’s both unsurprising and horrifying. He’s an excellent example, however, of how far people will go to prop up someone that “The People” like.

Suddenly “The Running Man” seems frighteningly accurate.

Exactly. It’s like he thinks he won a hotel, staff included. Given that anybody who watched even a few episodes of The West Wing knows better, the inpenetrable nature of the bubble in which he lives is all the more apparent.

At least Trump might have a suit that fits for once. What a schlub.

And the White House cancelled the traditional group shot of both couples without explanation. In my most fevered dreams, it’s because Michelle Obama refused to stand next to that pile of filth. Probably not, because she’s classy as hell, but I so wish that’s the truth.

I want to tell every young Millennial woman my stepson knows (many of whom sat this one out because “they’re both just as bad,” Christ) to get an IUD as soon as possible. Those fools have NO idea what’s coming, but I remember it all too well.

Right on! I don’t care who’s pulling the shenanigans; it’s unacceptable. As a society, it seems like we’ve become far too enamored of acting out our own opinions even when we should be neutral (looking at you, James Comey). Vigilance is required to keep that in check. Well done, your neighborhood!

Update. Both reported their incidents to the voting authority and supervisors are being sent to both locations.

So far I’ve heard two stories of friends--both white women who are registered Democrats--who had their signatures seriously questioned by older white men working at their polling places (different ones) in their largely red districts. They were allowed to vote, but they had to push and, in one case, call over a…

Or emigrants. My family has been here since the mid-1600s, but the past few years have definitely made me consider whether it’s time to pick up and set out once again for fairer shores. They were brave enough to do it, so perhaps it’s time to learn from their example be brave, too. Some things can’t be fixed, and I’m…
