Thinking about that year where it seemed like every restaurant suddenly had bone marrow on the menu. That was some decadent shit.

It'd be pretty funny if it turned out after all this that Quentin Tarantino and Paul Dano were just virally pumping up a movie they were making together called The Limpest Dick in the World.

I'm impressed at the length and success of the career The Lumineers have carved out for themselves despite being completely unmemorable in any way.

Oh hey, it looks like the MLS championship game was yesterday! Messi's team in Miami won. Huzzah.
I feel like the fact that I had *no* idea that was happening, saw no advertising about the game, and have seen literally no one post about it would be, uh, not good signs if I were, say, an MLS exec.

A large chunk of the Republican party is just people who think none of the horrifying shit they want to do to other people will ever happen to them and I doubt that's gonna change until those folks discover that "their" people are actually totally willing to do it to them too.

If the Supreme Court declares an end to birthright citizenship, literally the first thing the next Democratic President should do after being sworn in is to declare every one of them that signed on to that "non-citizens" and ship them to El Salvador.

All this talk about Paul Dano's acting in There Will Be Blood is glossing over the fact that There Will Be Blood is actually a pretty lousy movie.
(...admittedly partially because Paul Dano was 23 and was cast in a part that needed a weightier screen presence than he was capable of at the time.)

After a few years of Stay-at-Home-Dadding, I have made it through my first week back at work. Been actually nice so far being back at work and in an office, although the whole wake up/get dressed/commute/repeat thing is, uh, not my favorite.

I'm just happy Warner's not going to Paramount, although I wouldn't be surprised if Trump's antitrust folks try to stop this and steer it to Ellison despite that acquisition being an obviously bigger antitrust problem.
