Which is the most influential? America or Europe?

Asia’s masters?!?  NOT ASIA!!!

Whatever the next big innovation in music playback is, people will want to hear their old favorites in that new format, and you can’t do that without the masters - well-archived, protected, labeled, and documented masters. Keeping Nirvana’s masters protected seems like a no-brainer in that context - not to mention…

I handle the archiving of all the footage shot at my company, and I’m rather appalled by Universal’s practices here. What were they doing storing masters on site? My employer is no major studio by any means, but everything we shoot, we maintain redundancies, keeping copies on site for access, and the originals off…

No, the goal of the census (the only goal of the census) is to establish how many people (“counting the whole number of persons in each state”) are living here so as to establish fair representation and federal funding etc. Any question which would induce someone to not respond to the census for fear of retribution…

Yeah, I think the read on Miley is super subjective but mine tends to be sort of, she seems to have grown up in a very loose family, the sort of people who walk around naked, who break up and make up, who smoke weed together, etc. and had to really keep that under wraps as a Disney star. I remember vividly the…

Assuming you’re not being disingenuous, the point of the question is not to establish citizenship, the point of the question is to suppress responses from immigrants who fear deportation, which would bring about the true goal of the question - a decrease in voting rights, representation and federal funding for the…

Except she didn’t rubbish the whole genre. She rubbished a specific (and frankly dominant) aspect of the genre, while praising another hip hop artist (Kendrick Lamar). She said the misogynist aspect is what pushed her out of the scene a little. That’s not the same thing as saying all hip hop sucks, which is what the…

I feel like Jarmusch is one of those super Gen-X things that millenials like I will never appreciate. I’m suprirsed that Dowd is just now getting frustrated by his insistence on ironic distance. If that’s a dealbreaker it seems like he should have gotten off this bus long ago.

You can miss me with this. I am a lifelong hip-hop fan, and hip-hop has for decades had issues with misogyny, homophobia, and racism, moreso than any other genre of music besides maybe some strains of horroporn grindcore. It has gotten raunchier and more explicit in the last twenty years, to the extent that there are…

If you’d asked Fairstein to write it she’d have an entirely different—but also false—account that puts her in the best light possible.

I ponder this every day.

Fuck outta here with your ice skating uphil Bill Murray take. 

Bill Murray seems to do a movie every few years. That doesn’t really qualify as a glut. I mean, if you were gonna say Dwayne Johnson, I’m with ya.  Also, Bill, don’t listen to ‘im, man.  Cause Bill reads this stuff.

Maybe Rick Scott thinks that the Democrats haven’t done anything because Mitch McConnell hasn’t brought most of the 100+ bills passed by the House onto the Senate Floor? Just kidding. Rick “Valdemort” Scott is a disingenuous, grifting, phony, greedy piece of shit who on all likelihood didn’t legitimately beat Bill…

Apparently you never bought your first real six string.

Guys who have been married for longer than 6 months and refer to their old lady as “my bride” give me the creeps.

Chemical castration is voluntarily done by hundreds of thousands every year.

When I read the headline I thought it was maybe some funny post about someone wearing something outlandish but I should have known it was the usual “Not Skinny Woman Existing In Public Disturbs People” bullshit. :(

I can’t even begin to imagine the level of entitlement required to demand (!) a stranger leave a public place because I, personally, find their appearance unappealing. How do you live in the world with that level of narcissism?
