But they're not being given a pass. Did you read any of the mainstream news coverage on this event? It was victim blaming all around. I don't see how one tragedy being minimized should negate another: it's fallacious, morbid arithmetic. Some idiot racists blaming black victims for police violence shouldn't mean other…

Huh, I really don't think that's what he meant by that.

There's room for critique when it comes to the rhetoric of identity politics, free speech and "safe spaces." It's not gonna come from Carolla though.

maybe

yep

The dude is also in the awesome Clppng

Feeling (rightly or wrongly) oppressed isn't the same as being a bigot.

I don't know. I think the "hell" scenes are really effective for being really gratuitous. Shit out does Hellraiser. The rest of the movie has its moments. But it's all about the hell dimension….

Not a big fan of the Destihl red. For Stateside, I'd pick Minneapolis's Stupid Sexy Flanders by Fair State, which is by far the best I've had over here.

That's fine. I don't think it makes you a cowardly and shitty human being to not want to conform to those thrust upon rules.

I will return phone calls. I have absolutely no obligation to answer texts though. Never have. I'm annoyed that's its somehow become an obligation. I get it, I get it.

"Answer My Text,” a shout-along “fuck you” to guys who don’t text
back—and featuring the clever line, “Maybe your heart’s on silent mode
tonight”"

Hey whatever works! I have nothing against dad music.

The Snow Town Murders and now this one. Australia is all about the brutally realistic serial killer movies it seems.

I think they're fine. I liked some of it. I just think they are easy listening, and are a kind of melancholy yacht rock at this point. A lot of indie rock is basically future dad music.

The aughts adult contemporary music.

oof, boy, they were always corny. I'm not sure who was out their crying for a reunion album to begin with. As with so many things, when the dollars and cents come calling…

I wish that some indie rock journo would actually mention the obvious precedents and contemporaries of Colin Stetson that have been mining the same area of extended technique for years and years already. It's not difficult to research dudes who have obviously influenced him like Anthony Braxton, John Butcher, or Evan…

God, he's a pleasantly weird looking dude, almost Steve Buscemi level.

I watched this around the time it came out, and for the life of me I can't remember much about it. I guess I need to watch it again, because this review sheds a lot of light on why I can't remember it very well. It sounds like a much more interesting film than I thought at the time; I think was 16 though, and I guess…
