It's spelled "deez nuts".

Going to Disneyland once was more than enough for me. The idea of going once a month just makes me kind of queasy.

Hey, at least Venom can carry a dumpster with one hand. Proportional strength of a spider my ass.

I like Carnage too. In video games, at least.

I just realized that somewhere in some alternate universe there could be a pretty amazing, extremely political take on Venom where a black man gets the symbiote.

Christ, I keep on forgetting how young he is. He's the worst imaginable advertising for the products he hawks.

I'm not a big ambient fan either, and yet solo Eno is one of my favorite artists.

Did you read the excerpt from Weigel's book? In The Court of the Crimson King was #5 on the UK charts. In The Wake of Poseidon was #4. King Crimson never got close to that kind of commercial success again, and from then on it became just "whatever Robert Fripp wants to call King Crimson now". Which is fine! There's…

That'd be a pretty jarring break from the standard style for band names. I think the original sentence was clear enough, but I think its biggest problem was going for that "birth…death" dualism, which allows the reader to incorrectly parse it as "the death of Giles". At that point, you wonder "who's Giles?" and then…

There's a lot of competition, but if I had to select one Eno song to survive a worldwide catastrophe or to shoot into space or whatever it'd be that one. There's nothing clever or obscure about it. It has a simple and universal emotionalism that I feel like should appeal to anyone, but it doesn't feel obvious or…

Ever read about the shit Captain Beefheart put his band through during the recording of Trout Mask Replica? Borders on criminal.

Personally, I think Fripp did his best work when working for other people. Eno got a lot of great stuff out of him, for instance. They had to have gotten along reasonably well — they collaborated numerous times over the years.

"Oh, and for the record, we find Robert Fripp's guitar music pedantic and joyless. Please leave the mix tapes out of your future correspondence."

The caffeine content in cold brew can be extremely shocking if you're not prepared for it. Most preparations are designed to be diluted, or at least drunk in small quantities like espresso.

I like cold brew coffee a lot, but the flavor profile is definitely different than espresso. Aeropress is closer to espresso than cold brew is, and I'm assuming the presence of both in this recipe means something. (I kind of bet it's just fine with just cold brew though!)

I agree that US policy in the Middle East is misguided, immoral, and should change. I just don't think "flying killer robots" have much relevance to that question except as a bit of lazy rhetoric.

Don't bother buying Stumptown's mind-bogglingly overpriced cold brew if you're going to make a drink like this. Make your own. If you make it strong enough, you probably can get away with just using that instead of including espresso, too.

No, I think he killed them because it was an expedient way of pursuing American geopolitical interests. That's generally why nation-states engage in warfare.

What's inexplicable is how he talks about it. He talks about it like it's a building he built licensed his name to.
