For 16 episodes my reaction to The Return ranged from cautious optimism to outright anger. But these last 2 really made everything click in to place. Everything you’ve said is spot on, but I also think there is an element of turning the idea of a reboot back in to the fans that wanted it. In essence, they are…

I like your analysis a lot, especially the two Coopers representing the two halves of the show. I still feel frustrated that this seems to have been a show about making a show, as opposed to all the other things that Twin Peaks season 1 and 2 were about. But I guess we have Mark Frost’s upcoming book to tick off all…

Maybe it’s Baby’s First Critical Analysis to suggest that Twin Peaks: The Return is an extended meditation on both itself and the original run of episodes, but that’s the most coherent interpretation I have so far. I guess the only insight less piercing than that would be “Dale Cooper symbolically represents the…

Just a reminder that episode is not aired in repeats and is not included in it’s season on streaming services because it hurt Tyler Perry’s precious feelings and he threatened to make trouble for his shows on TBS if they didn’t pull it (TBS and Cartoon Network are both owned by Turner Broadcasting). Cry baby bitch…

Their entire catalogue is strong. I love Pretzel Logic the best, but if your tastes are jazzy, don’t miss Katy Lied.

Isn’t Kinja where Obama was really born?

I will never not read Joel Osteen as Haley Joel Osment

“There is no way he would lock people out of the church and not let people in for shelter...for more than a few days, provided there is national coverage of him locking people out, and also the city specifically asks him to let people in.”

Since most seeking shelter are poor and minorities, I assume Osteen’s major concern was that their presence would scare off his much whiter, much wealthier congregants from coming to empty their pockets for him every Sunday.

TYLER PERRY PRESENTS TYLER PERRY’S RECOMMENDED STORIES ABOUT TYLER PERRY: A TYLER PERRY PRODUCTION: MADEA’S TYLER PERRY DEFENDS JOEL OSTEEN, DONATES MONEY TO HIS CHURCH. BASED ON THE NOVEL “PUSH” BY SAPPHIRE

And Jesus went into the temple of God, and cast out all them that sold and bought in the temple, and overthrew the tables of the moneychangers, and the seats of them that sold doves, And said unto them, “stop it, you guys. You know that’s the preacher’s job.”

Why oh why am I not fucking surprised by this?!

What a fucking piece of shit.

The “recommended stories” header should read like this instead:

People think I’m a twat, give me cash!

I hope Chris Rock shows up to call Osteen a “cracker-ass cracker”, slug Tyler Perry, and drives off real fast.

Didn’t Osteen get enough money to cover costs when he passed the plate around to the refugees?

I blame Kinja. And, of course, Obama.

He had a couple of woefully unappreciated solo recordings. 1994's “11 Tracks of Whack”, and 2008's “Circus Money”. Go check them out. I was looking forward to a third. I always travel with pretty much the entire Becker/Fagen catalogue on my trusty iPod. They’re like old friends. This is heartbreaking.

Your everlasting summer you can see it fading fast/So you grab a piece of something that you think is gonna last/But you wouldn’t know a diamond if you held it in your hand/The things you think are precious I can’t understand
