Trump comparing himself to a defeated villain. That’s about right.

Especially if they are explained in the most disingenuously pretentious way possible. “The banana is the idea.”

When you can write down what the idea of the work is on a piece of paper, and that will be equally as interesting as the work itself (e.g., “duct tape bananas to a wall”) then your art is terrible. But moronic “investors” need to throw their money at something, and unfortunately, “visually compelling” tends to rank…

She and a couple dozen other people, yes.

The fact of his existence does not seem to care about my feelings.

Apparently he suffers from rosacea, and presumably he believes that orange concealer makes him look like a human being.

As I’ve been watching Watchmen, I’ve been thinking a lot about how the way Lindelof has approached this story is actually quite similar to the way Moore takes established properties like Batman, Allen Quartermain, and the Charlton characters that were the initial protagonists of Watchmen before DC asked him to make…

This. We had a pile of evidence available to us via the Mueller Report about Trump’s conspiring with the Russian government, Wikileaks, et al. to create a fake conspiracy theory about Hillary that has been debunked by his own government. We’ve had numerous members of his cabinet indicted. We’ve had transparent…

I just wonder why they picked this transparently false story by a known fraud (not just about this and his subsequent book My Friend Leonard, about someone who doesn’t exist, but in the YA publishing house he built post-Pieces that was criticized by the Authors Guild for forcing authors to give up all rights to their…

There’s part of me that wishes I was living in the timeline when Moe Szyslak was running for President.

So I am. Thanks!

There’s a story about the recording of Magic Bus where one of the band members (I’m guessing Pete Townsend) told Keith Moon to lay on the floor of the sound booth as they were doing overdubs. At the end of the song, you can faintly hear someone (probably Pete Townsend) saying “I saw you!” because Keith Moon couldn’t…

What is stunning to me is that they thought that their approach would bring more clicks to the site. Step 1, kill your current readership; Step 2, ???; Step 3, profit!

I’m guessing that he used up his adderall and needed an emergency refill.

I bet that calling people cowards is Herzog’s go to insult. “Attention passengers: The flight will be delayed for two hours.” “You are cowards.”

OK, here we go. Is this the beginning of the next G/O Media clusterfuck? There are a lot of sports-related things being posted today, so I wonder....

There is a lot I don’t miss about living in the Bay Area, but the one thing I wish I had where I live is Berkeley Bowl. They have the most incredible produce section, where I can get my favorite fruit, fragrant pears, year round. Where I live now, you can occasionally find them in the biggest Asian supermarket…

If it was a business decision, it was a really dumb one. If they wanted to change the ideology of Splinter, they could’ve hired a new staff, or they could have started a new political site and then shuttered Splinter. Instead, they’ve lost the readership that was at Splinter and replaced it with nothing. Their…

If only they had a site devoted to politics...

Here’s another reason that shuttering Splinter was as stupid and self-owning as the destruction of Deadspin. We’re leading into peak political season with this impeachment inquiry and the elections, and G/O has got nothing. Way to bring up that readership!
