If I were an absurdly rich guy I like to think I'd be pretty chill and unobtrusive, societally-speaking, but I might make the Macy's people render me as a Thanksgiving Day parade inflatable

Not exactly the same, but I would use my powers to clear the music rights and get the TV show Ed on streaming
If you were a despotic president, what movie would you force Hollywood to make? I want to see Quentin's Star Trek movie or maybe Kill Bill Vol 3.

Not usually a conspiracy person, but there was such an insane variety of grating noises in the airport terminal yesterday that I started to side-eye the nearby Bose store, like, "Oh, interesting, this all must be wonderful for sales, huh"

I think more things should be periodically added to and updated, Leaves of Grass style. What other ironies has Alanis Morisette discovered since 1995? What new coincidences could we tack onto the opening of Magnolia? Art should be a living document.

Personally, I like to spend my Saturday morning doing a little yoga, maybe going to a farmer's market, having a pastry, reading a book. But hey, this is cool, too. No judgment. Whatever you're into.
