Worse, they preferred it over a gentle Taiwanese man saying, “Two men who love each other shouldn’t be constrained by societal limitations or prejudice.” And then the Academy said, “Maybe they should?”

I’ve always found it kind of funny that so many people were apparently happy to let a middle-aged white Scientologist tell them what to think about racism.

I understand them being jumpy, what I don’t understand is how a team of comedy writers is facing more immediate consequences than domestic terrorists looking to murder elected officials.

I use expensive conditioner on my ass hair.

100% this. Most people overpack by a wide margin. With a few exceptions, most people don’t need more than one, regulation-size carry-on bag for up to a week. 

No way in hell am I clicking through 30 slides so I’ll just go ahead and assume this is #1

The “Beware My Love” alternate take with John Bonham on drums is flipping excellent. I gotta say “Soily” is solid too.
Most of Tug of War is a really good, mature album.  Take it Away, Ballroom Dancing, and Wanderlust could all slot in here pretty easily as well. [though no issue, picking Here Today, of course]

Some random Macca observations:

WTF? No ‘Wonderful Christmastime’?

At least this pointless column wasn’t presented as a slideshow.

Reagan’s daughter Patti Davis wrote that she “believe[s] in forgiveness,” but “forgiving someone in your heart doesn’t mean that you let them loose in Virginia to pursue whatever dark agendas they may still hold dear.”

World would be a much better place if he had been a better shot.

I still remember a joke on Weekend Update on SNL that went something along the lines of “It took 11 people to write ‘Jenny on the Block’ and 12 people to get the computer to sing it.”

Lady Gaga performed solo in 2017 and was the first since Prince in 2007 (she was also the first female artist to ever perform solo). The Weeknd performed solo in 2021.

It will only add fuel to the fire that her husband should resign or be impeached.

He’s either that goddamn good (and, no, I’m not going to YouTube to find out because fuck giving him clicks) or perhaps these venues are booking him because he’s famous for killing someone (James Brady’s death years later was ruled a homicide) and it’s just a “freak show” that they realized some people will pay to see.

Today they’d make Kissimmee

If you’re a Republican, gay people absolutely are the “bogeyman”. They’ve convinced themselves that every gay person is a “groomer” and the mere mention of a homosexual relationshp in any context in schools in some states has effectively been banned.

My advice would be to not look at your 401k if you aren’t near retirement. Those of us who aren’t close should look at this as an opportunity to pad our 401ks at a discount. 

Musk not giving people credit for anything he shows off is exactly the reason why his army of Weird Nerds think that he singlehandedly invented Rockets, Space Travel, Electric Cars, and the entire concept of Engineering.
