I used to hate upon them too until I realized that, yeah, they were kind of “punk rock” and/or “indie rock.” They do their own thing, don’t worry about making hits or even decent albums, and have no problem with letting their fans bootleg their concerts. They even do probably the snottiest, most punk thing ever and…

Any time I ever travel to Europe (ya know, outside of this year, naturally), the first thing I do after booking is sit down and binge Rick’s episodes in wherever I’m going. He offers such a rock solid baseline for a traveler— he covers the big touristy things, but also gives you hidden gems and great, off the beaten…

Dude, same. Minor Threat/Fugazi, obviously, but Rites of Spring, Jawbox, Gray Matter...damn so many great bands.

LOL I used to HATE the Grateful Dead. I grew up listening to punk and hardcore, so I hated any “hippy” band or “corporate rock” band (I know, I know). But then I started playing guitar and actually listening to the music and dissecting it so I could play it...

I don’t see it as a give and take situation. Dodin’s hire is a call I was very happy to see - and a brave one too, given her history of criticizing Israel, and our relationship with it. But our criticism of Tanden’s hire (for a more important position it should be acknowledged) is not something to be placated by…

As a Muslim there are plenty of things main thing I am entitled to find awful about her, most objectionable being the CAP’s removal of a report on anti-Muslim bias relating to NYPD surveillance of my community in 2015, based on Michael Bloomberg’s objections.

I’ve never once bothered to look into her, because she’s not Mary Berry and therefore I do not care. I finally did this season and Christ on a cracker has this woman done some shit. 

Who was it who said paraphrasedly that when the punishment is only a fine, it’s simply a punishment for poor people?

I think one of the points of the movie was how problematic everything in the movie was.

Ok. This is a bridge too far. What is this Gilbert Grape bullshit? I know this probably will get lost in the grays, but my brother has autism, and I made a short film with an autistic character in it so that we could increase representation. I went to great lengths to find an actor ACTUALLY ON THE SPECTRUM to play…

I can’t be the only person who assumes at this point that there’s some kind of deplorable exploitation of labor (above and beyond overworking or underpaying people with little or no protections) occurring in the supply chain of basically every product anywhere. Whether it’s in the extraction of the resources used to…

Whether or not he was a nice guy doesn’t matter one bit to the 100's of thousands (probably million plus) dead Iraqi civilians, or the survivors who had to live in bombed out rubble with no protection in a hollowed out infrastructure. And to lay the blame on Cheney makes things even worse, even though I don’t buy it-…

My uncle taught at Yale when W. was a student. And my uncle said that W. was not going to be an intellectual superstar, but he would make a point of sitting at a different table with different people during lunch or dinner and by the end of the meal, he was friends with all of them. He was not meant to be a…

If an outright war criminal like GWB can be rehabilitated I have no hope that this admin is ever going to be held to account.

“In reality, I was afraid I’d lose friends and get skewered from all sides as a hypocritical, privileged elitist looking to capitalize on her Trump connection.”
Oh. So you knew all along that you were a slimy ass kisser, but you still did it til it became an impossible position? And could make a few bucks?
I’m sure…

Fuck, son. Gen X too. Saving is something only Boomers got to do.

That was out of control! I think you undersold how awesome that was! She’s running around the stage, tearing up SEVERAL kits, all while keeping up with the rest of the band! Thank you for sharing, that was really fun to watch!

Back when the best birthday parties were at McDonalds.

Sorry folks. Ain’t gonna be no jail cell. 47% of this miserable Republic voted for Trump this time around. A lawyer would have to be deaf, dumb, blind and not a member of the bar to somehow not seat one or more nullifying MAGA’s on any given jury looking into Trump’s criminality. Mob bosses don’t have this kind…

Surely if anything how Florida voted against Biden for being a “socialist” despite being centre-right in quite a number of regards yet then voted for a $15 min. wage, literally socialist market interference, show’s the problem is all about one of presentation and not policy which is something that seemingly all wings…
