Good for her!. Doubt I’ll ever be rolling in fuck-you money, but hope I’ll find the wherewithal to resist bien-pensant dumbassery wherever it rears its head regardless.

SHOWRUNNERS: “This is mindboggling. Who knew anyone wasn’t all into stuff about New York and New Yorkers?”

Didn’t know Stephen King stans were still a thing! Relax; it’s not as if I insulted Maximum Overdrive.

Stephen King has always been useless on any topic not involving malevolent inanimate objects.

Knock yourself out.

“Should” has nothing to do with it. I’m sure some are offended and some aren’t. This says nothing about whether any offense a given person takes, for whatever reasons, is relevant or worth heeding.

Not every walking freakshow from history can be neatly mobilized to match our current societal fashions. Hell, if I were a transsexual I’d be deeply offended by any jackleg who tried to liken Elagabalus to me.

In other words, Slate’s calculating she needs this job less than she needs to avoid becoming a potential target for maladjusted online freaks. I’m not so sure I blame her, either.

Seriously: if you don’t own Bachelor No. 2, GO GET IT NOW. Not only is it essential listening, you might save an unsuspecting client from Mann’s mediocre housekeeper skills.

Next month it’ll be 22 years as well since my mom died. All the best, Janet, and blessings upon you & yours. Like Paulina, I suspect that Cameron’s story has inspirational possibilities.

Also one of the decade’s greatest and most moving scores, by Dave Grusin.

On the other hand, the Rosenbergs totally had it coming.

I have a hard time picturing teenage versions of these characters ... but I desperately want to see Sandman and Doctor Fate make some sort of appearance on this show.

I remember seeing First Blood on cable, and also remember seeing Rambo [a.k.a., part II] in the theatre. If the latter fails to impress you, all I can say is, is that you weren’t there.

I think we’ve already established that Blue Valley is the town that OSHA forgot on all sorts of levels.

I chose to believe we were semi-inside Yolanda’s head, and the claw sounds were much like our teeth clicking & tongue popping: something that rings loudly to us, but scarcely at all to anyone else.

Call me a cranky old man, but I’m never surprised by a teenager’s utter ignorance of anything that happened more than a few years ago.

I kind of LIKE that Courtney is such a heedless teenager whose brain is still half-oatmeal ... as so many of ours were at that age. I don’t know about y’all, but 16yo me would have waved off every other sane concern in the face of a chance to form a FREAKING SUPERHERO TEAM.

“We fired these people for being comprehensively horrible.”
