The X-Files is genuinely a timelessly good show, because when not focusing on overarching conspiracy plot, they would really just focus on a single concept and quite crucially, it would cast an incredible actor to center the episode around who would be utterly god damn captivating to watch.

I hope he was responsible for “we named the DOG Indiana!”
RIP Tom Stoppard.
Hardly his most important work, but I remember having my mind blown by learning he had rewritten most of the dialogue on INDIANA JONES AND THE LAST CRUSADE, one of the funniest movies ever made

Federal immigration enforcement officials called off a planned raid on Canal Street today shortly before it was slated to begin.
New Yorkers who heard about the raid showed up at the garage where the feds had gathered, and as federal agents tried to leave, the NYPD cleared the way for them.

The post-WW2 model for, well, *everything* was incredibly resilient but it’s time to admit that events have pulled multiple laps on it, snd it has gone toxic.
The foundational conditions it was predicated upon are gone and never coming back.

Added a Salux towel & one of those little scalp massage/shampoo brushes to my shower routine & whoa dude, have you guys heard about this whole “exfoliation” thing? Suddenly I have skin like a mammal’s instead of a lizard’s, I don’t know how it happened.

Started a collection of Sarah Kane’s plays & almost immediately thought, “You know what, I’m sure these are brilliant but they are so not for me.” Some of us were born for the transgressive & others of us to go, “Hey, have I ever read the stage version of Life With Father? I probably should.”

I don’t want to get over my Hoosier skis here but maybe when you call someone’s colleague’s children awful ableist slurs, swat their homes & call in bomb threats to try to get them to do you a favor some of them just…get angry instead? All this for some asshole clearly near death can’t help either.

Back on my dad movie bullshit, rewatching All the President's Men for the first time in forever & muttering "oh yeah, that's the good stuff" every 3 minutes. Hey there's Martin Balsam, fuck yeah.

It's fortunate I can't afford these because I kind of want them. I'd line them up in the front window to make the neighborhood nervous.
If anyone's still stuck for a Christmas gift for someone they want to terrify, this vintage German circus set is currently for sale on eBay and it looks absolutely cursed.

Of course the replies are filling up with chants of “won’t work, no chance, why bother” but fuck it, we’re gonna get there one way or another. As usual in this culture, probably in the messiest, longest drawn out, most chaotic & needlessly painful & potentially violent way possible.

Anyway, this is a great book about people at the disregarded bottom of the racial & socioeconomic ladder who still created a rich & vibrant & long-lasting musical culture, without waiting around for some venture capitalist to do it for them.
