George Michael and Prince took on the record industry, each to his own peril.

I love them and I can’t wait for season two. I know there are some Stranger Things haters on here, but like...

Please, cruel world, do not chew up and spit out these child stars like you have so many others.

Last night I was up ‘til all hours watching this 2005 documentary on George Michael. After watching this, I love him even more. As the Grammys are on CBS, I expect whatever salute they do will be prepared by James Cordon, which means at least George’s salute will be in the safe hands of a pal. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED:

Just tried to find it, but can’t right now. This is what happens: He and his then boyfriend pull up to the LA Chappell recording studio in the new car (1992 Mercedes conv) George had just bought for his LA home (inferred from the comments made). They switch seats so the bf takes the car while George goes to work. You…

I agree two hundred percent with everything you just said. I don’t care how he died, only that he died. I’m still so devastated from the loss.

The media houses that keep interviewing him and I’m sure paying him for it, irritate me as well.

There have been very few artists as talented and beautiful as George Michael. In spite of his decades of drug abuse, he was still so prolific and always a gentleman.

Still really into this Detrumpify extension indirectly courtesy of Jezebel, to wit:

It’s sort of interesting to contrast this situation to the Obamas. As Jodi Kantor reported in her book on Barack and Michelle, Michelle at first wanted to stay with Sasha and Malia in Chicago, at least in the short term.

But his meetings now begin at 9 a.m., earlier than they used to, which significantly curtails his television time. Still, Mr. Trump, who does not read books, is able to end his evenings with plenty of television.

I’m a Black woman from Boston so I’m very here for this.

There was a really great piece about someone being hit by a bus once. Forget who wrote it, but it was really good!

This is some petty shit and I am living for it.

I’ve been on the craigslist musicians classifieds, and for some reason, there was some bikers for trump or against BLM and the ad was basically to this effect: we have to ride against these paid Soros protesters who are getting $50/hr and benefits.

He’s a billionaire who supports liberal causes, so in the minds of right wingers anything that happens on the left must be because Soros paid people to do it.

I am, to a large extent, an environmentalist. I believe in it, but it’s out of control

I’m not advocating for abstinence, but I do wonder how all these men would feel if their wives and girlfriends began taking the whole “abstinence is the best method of prevention” advice to heart and started a No-Sex Protest against them until they changed their minds.
