Gonna chime in here on Nancy Drew. Last week’s episode was excellent. The emotional stakes were high, the acting was fantastic, and I really enjoy the way the mystery is twisting and turning. Having to wait until January is pure torture.

They could drag and drop that character right into a VD script without changing a thing! 

“I was hoping she would be caught in the (literal) crosshairs and dispatched to some teen show on the CW.”

Imagine that a corporation would be upset about the depiction of their product on a fictional TV show in 2021. And then imagine that the show would be Sex and the City. Every part of this story is a throwback to a simpler time. 

‘When you’re a Jet, you’re a Jet all the way
From your flaming exhaust till you crash in the bay...”

She wrote some of my favorites, such as A Witching Hour, A Vampire Lestat, Memnoch Is A Devil, The Tale of A Body Thief, and Queen of Some Damned.

There were lesser works of course. Christ, Some Lord out of Egypt was pretty boring, and I could never get into the Slumbering Beauty stuff. Too much spanking.

Years ago, I was moving from one crazy, dangerous neighborhood to another slightly less dangerous, yet equally crazy neighborhood, when a mentally ill homeless person randomly tried to cut me with a box cutter. Just one of those things. One second he was trudging by silently, the next he was coming at me, also silently…

I noticed last weekend that Showtime puts both Dexter and Yellowjackets on-demand either Saturday night or Sunday morning (not sure exactly, but I watched episode 6 of Dexter at 12:30am est.) Thought I’d throw that out there in case anyone goes to bed early Sunday, or stays up late Saturday night and can’t sleep, or…

This story makes me happier that I buy generic raisin bran out of poverty.

I love how nobody was blaming this on Peloton but everything requires a response these days.  The implication before it became clear he was going to croak was that he was having an affair with a hot Peloton instructor...honestly that would have been a bit more objectionable from a corporate hiring standpoint.  Also we…

I listened to JLP the other day. Like most 90's music, it has not aged well. I think it’s because the derivative garbage inspired by it that surfaced the early 2000's overdid the whole faux-angst, mid-tempo quiet/loud formula. There is a reason 80's music keeps coming back, but not 90's (or 2000's)

I count two mentions of transphobia in this article. Surprisingly restrained, AV Club. 

When Big showed the picture, I was like, that’s the actress from that show I watched the other night that has a great cast but was pretty terrible.

in the 30'ish years i’ve been on the internet torrents remain undefeated.

I bought myself a leg lamp years ago; most years I get it out instead of a Christmas tree. The soft glow of electric sex in my living room brings me unparalleled joy. :)

RC is the best non Coke cola imho, a diner near me still has it on tap so I’ll get it when I swing by for a burger and fries.

“But frottage—a.k.a. scissoring, which the historical record mentions specifically, and Verhoeven re-creates faithfully”.

Well then he musta been pissed when he saw Revenge of the Nerds.

You’ve taken a Vow of Comedy!!!
