Yesterday I saw a press conference (or something, I only caught the end) where Biden was asked what we were going to do with the extra vaccines when everyone here was vaccinated and he said we were going to give them to countries who needed them, because if anywhere in the world still had a problem, then everyone in…

I’m thinking of all the things Biden has gotten accomplished in the two months he’s been in office - and without the regular sort of help most presidents get in the transfer of power.

I used to usually go to watch movies at end-runs and or off-peak hours. It was rare that there were more than a couple people at that particular screen. I MISS IT SO MUCH! I used to go at least weekly, and just started going again after my heart transplant when COVID hit. :(

The day after I got my first vaccine shot my partner and I were guilted into seeing two of his family members... we were masked, outside, and sat more than 6 feet apart...but 20 minutes into the conversation they casually mentioned that they had someone else over to their house earlier in the week and that person…

Is... is this... is this what a competent government response to the pandemic looks like? What is this weird feeling? Dare I hope?

Not bad, but I still prefer this one:

One more because Twitter is expressing it better than I ever could.....

His entire schtick, for years, was being the “anti” Tonight Show. The late night shows used to pride themselves on being seamless and smooth. Pre-packaged, tightly scripted bits. Letterman was the guy where if the smoke machine wasn’t working, he’d tell the camera to zoom up on it, and get a closer look at the…

He came to prominence at a time when talk show hosts were much more deferential, warm, folksy...His asshole-ness was experienced as something fresh and subversive. I remember enjoying him at the time for those reasons. This was also roughly the same time that people like Steve Martin, Chevy Chase and Bill Murray began…

I think most of it was the alternative was Jay Leno.

I never felt that Dave took himself very seriously and he was pretty good at getting the guests to let their guard down and they would have fun. When you had someone who thought they were special, Dave would push their buttons.

From what I can tell, the last many years of that show were him playing like he was too good - as a “comedian’s comedian” - to be forced to interview the likes of Paris Hilton and Lindsay Lohan. I think he resented having to stick to the rules of network television while the comedy world moved on without him, and this…

Watching the 1994 Madonna interview with fresh eyes is fascinating. She completely turned the tables on him and proved her point about his “obsession” with her sex life. Yet consensus at the time was that she was the one who made herself look terrible, not the bully she was calling out.

So here is Paris in Vanity Fair, posing in the family home at 19. She seemed pretty aware of the celebrity life, liked being provocative (this photo was taken in 2000) and had been out and about in the celeb life almost her entire life, emotionally supported by her parents and family. Only to say that she had more…

About Ronan being Allen’s biological child- while he is listed as such, and nobody in the family has ever definitively said otherwise, go compare his features with Farrow’s and Frank Sinatra’s. He looks so much like young Sinatra; almost an equal combination of Frank and Mia. There is not one shred of resemblance with…

There was so much to takeaway from this very first episode. There is clearly a very, very, very weird vibe between Dylan and Allen. He’s hovering around her constantly and it’s noticeably different than a concerned dad or a dad who thinks his little girl is the greatest thing ever. Just in the videos we see, he’s…

Yup. There was a family photo in the documentary where Soon-Yi was wearing an oversized t-shirt and shorts. She looks like a child. She dressed like a child. She was a child.

I have NEVER understood why he is lauded as some genius auteur. I, since I was a child found him repulsive and scary. I couldn’t understand why it was believable that beautiful, very young women would date him in his movies, and why anyone thought that was a story that made sense. In my opinion, the reason why several…
