You bastard.

I’ve always liked this Hot Chip cover of “She Wolf”. I heard it well before the original (which I don’t like, fwiw) and found something about the tinny-ness and timidity of the vocals vs lyrics to be gold. (Catch the “A-woo!” at 1:09.)

The ignorance of people who never lived in New York under Bloomberg’s regime supporting him makes one’s blood boil. And it becomes increasingly clear to me that self-professed “Bay Area liberals” are actually Bay Area centrists, libertarians, or “shrug my shoulders if it doesn’t affect me” / “so long as I don’t have…

Bloody feckin’ hell. I certainly hope it’s an unfounded rumour. On what planet does that ticket make sense unless it’s to choose the two people in the primary contest who have the greatest beef with Hillary Clinton?

Mmmmm. Mini Pavlovas. Perfect as making a large Pavlova is always too much.

Agreed.

I grew up in New York City so I can tell you firsthand, Bloomberg is a colossal shitbag. From the subjugation of minorities through stop and frisk policies to his hardline anti-marijuana stance, dude is a total hoe.

I mean, I wouldn’t be opposed to taking the job and then doing fuck all to help the campaign. Not a bad gig assuming they don’t check KPIs or targets (but of course those quants do).

McGowan makes an extremely good point, and one that is uncomfortable for many to hear because they are comforted by the type of lip service and “the revolution will be accessorized” activism that Portman’s cape represents. Acknowledging Rose’s point might mean they have to examine some of their own empty words and…

One short film Oscar winner I can think of who took a very pragmatic approach to her post-win directing career is Jessica Yu. After winning Best Documentary Short, she was invited to a director traineeship aimed at increasing diversity in the field of directing. After training on the likes of ER, she has had…

It’s basically high-end Women’s March swag.

I wonder if “quiet confidence” is code for “tight-lipped.”

Excellent point. For a primary that started out with an abundance of exciting candidates, it’s been disappointing to see the field whittle down to the current crop, plus a some vanity candidacies. 

Oh, that would be amazing.

Now the dem has to be perfect or he’ll third party it.

Was just thinking of this show. I remember it guest starred Queen Latifah as herself in one episode.

Someone should start a streaming service that becomes that place where people can stream these classic Black shows and films. They’d make bank.

That’s probably because TBS seems to have bought syndication rights—and plays it after Saved by the Bell. Every time I travel to the West Coast, Fresh Prince is reliably on in the morning at the hotel as I adjust to the time change.
