This is a good article, but it doesn’t answer the most pressing question: how is it possible for a space opera set in the far distant future to have a character whose name is Duncan Idaho?

Y’know, sometimes I think we forget that A24 is a distribution company that has a lot of different genres in it.

It’s also possible his wife just didn’t want kids and John agreed to it, now given the opportunity and having faced some shit he realized he does. Hell for all we know that could’ve been part of what drove them apart. People change.

I went to rehab for cocaine as well, I’m approaching a year and I’ve basically had to reduce a lot of things in my life that feel like I’m performing for people (work events, stepping down from roles in friends weddings, summer BBQ’s, dates). I can’t imagine being a literal a performer struggling with cocaine abuse.…

Magnets, how do they reprogram my pacemaker?

When your parents tell you “You can be anyone you want to be” and you take it waaaaay too literally.

As is de rigour with just about every Spielberg film, if he were to excise the last ten minutes, it’d be perfect. But no... He has to get the schmaltz in.

A one-hit wonder to many people who only listened to whatever they heard of theirs on the radio, the same way people think The Flaming Lips was also a one-hit wonder. Mazzy Star had a ridiculously avid following (me among them) who knew that they had a bunch of great songs beyond Fade Into You, and who were willing to…

His one thing is conveying layers of humanistic emotion and feeling carefully presented in elaborately constructed and immaculately presented whimsical dioramas. They’re like bento boxes of the human condition.

My biggest hope (which may be fixed) is that street names no longer disappear when zooming in. There’s nothing more annoying and counter-intuitive than zooming in to read the street name only to have it just go away.  

“This thing is a monument to its self importance.”

If you are arguing for pay equality, don’t bring up the fame thing and mention you know nothing about the women sports. It undercuts your argument. Do basic research and pretend you know if you have to

I would just like to be “that person” and point out he got her number from her carry on bag, not checked bag.

“which means you on some level clearly give a fuck about this pointless frippery”

It means nothing more than he accepted a check to do a job. That’s IT. Anything else is your own bullshit.

I don’t know about anyone else but for me the biggest pop-culture ending was Deadspin (RIP), a true loss above so many. An inspiration, acts of solidarity and integrity, in the face of resounding ineptitude.

To quote a great movie: Amazing. Every word of what you just said was wrong.
