A family member has been involved in the Chicago restaurant scene for years (against everybody’s advice, but whatever) and she calls him Tippin’ Pippen — meant ironically. Must be a diminutive.

But she says it’s almost become a gag, almost like how if Genet stole something out of your place in the 60s, it was a status…

I’ve had a rough day, and I’m sure everybody’s going to hate me for writing this, but I’m tiring of this narrative. You weren’t raped. You had sex with the real asshole that was in your band. But you’re NOT guilty for anything, you didn’t inadvertently teach anyone anything. You have not “contributed to a culture that…

The only important thing is what I can see as a European. An American…

This is what happens when you don’t read Nietzsche.

Good luck with that.

He’s only thinking of Hitchcock. Ozu, Satyajit Ray, and Renoir (and some, like a mutual friend of ours, would say Dreyer and Bresson) are fully the equal of Hitchcock and don’t hypersexualize the camera, for which the “male gaze” is a moronic and crude substitute phrase.

Mizoguchi, for that matter, is sometimes accused…

Anybody know if the cheese is actually good? I might not make many friends on this board, and I’ll bet I’m (a) poorer and (b) hate this fucking crap more than anybody, but I do easily spend more than $300 on cheese per month.

Caveat: I lived in Paris after college, one time I woke up realizing not only was I dreaming…

To be fair, she is translating from the NT Greek, where tense is also an indicator of mood, and where the future perfect is formed by periphrasis.

Gives new meaning to the “double bind.”
