That’s called “peaceful transition”, also known as “i will concede when all the votes have been counted, i will concede when all the votes have been recounted, i will concede when all the votes have been recounted once more, i will concede when the electors will have been officialized, i will concede when the electors…

De-hibernate me then.

That yes (and also embarrassment). But as you point out, ire is comparatively relaxing, these days.

Tired. Spotted that title in the corner of my eye, thought it’d be “The moment has arrived: It’s time to hate Eastwood.”

To brag, you mean ?

Something seems very odd about this. Damon’s appearance in Ragnarok was a fairly humorous cameo however I seriously doubt its worthy of expanding into a larger role.

I remember it as a recurring thing. Exposition chapters set in gastronomy restaurants with detailed menus.

A newly translated collection of letters from my favorite Greek poet, spanning from the 30's to the 70's. Mostly written at sea, as he lived as a radio operator on various freighters and passenger boats. Unassuming letters, showing his trademark mix of cynicism, vulnerability, romanticism and anti-romanticism.

It’s 4 new minutes of neck snapping, but on loop for two hours. It will be AWESOME.

In other news : Zack Snyder still refuses to spit out the bubble gum he’s been chewing for six years.

Yep. I don’t like Crowe, but he’s right there. Master And Commander is a brilliant movie. Possibly the best, or only truly good, sail age naval movie ever made.

after a career in baseball.

I suspect it matters exactly as much as you having your father’s surname instead of your mother’s. It’s one of the most fundamental (and fundamentally sexist) structures of our kinship institutions. The bat-family is patrilineal, women coming to it get the patriarch’s name while men keep belonging to themselves.

Thinking of it, it’s odd that there’s never been a batboy. Batwoman batgirl bathound wonderboy ? All the batboys have bat-unrelated names, all the batgirls have bat labels. Does it say something about independence ?

I’m thinking of the ending of The Shield these days. For trumpic reasons.

I don’t understand BSG. I’ve watched it years ago, and I have very vague memories of it. I remember it as a disappointing mess, the horror of improvised tv-series, writing itself into corners with zero idea where to go all while lying from the start that there’s a whole plan thought up in advance. So many random…

Impatiently.

Actually, I don’t remember much sex, if any, in these novels (apart from a bit of tenderness with Vesper, but, again, it’s Vesper). Maybe I blanked it out.

Yeah. Given the slight tension around the inauguration’s security, best avoid the Dead Kennedys for a while.
