Playground chants and games have transcended geography since before the Internet, but I’ve still yet to meet anyone else who sang the song my classmates did after Kurt’s death. It was to the tune of the Notre Dame fight song…

"Cheer cheer for old Kurt Cobain / he shot himself while high on cocaine”

Still can’t get over Nardwuar mentioning The NEOS to Kurt Cobain in a January 1994 interview.

Thanks for the unsolicited negative feedback!

*Filming #allherfault happened mostly in Australia, but the overhead shots of the Baháʼí Temple and Gillson Park are gorgeous!

There are also brief shots of cars on Isabella Ave, turning south into Evanston.

Chicago Police wouldn’t investigate this case, though. Kinda like Home Alone in that way.

There are many ways that social class plays a role in #allherfault as well. From the invisible labor of canvassing remaining invisible (to the wealthy suburbanites) to the disparate outcomes of a drug charge for the affluent and the impoverished.

Plenty to consider with regard to gossip and mystery in #allherfault

Some discussion of lies of Omission as compare to lies of Commission in my review.

Despite the title, it’s not just women who might be at fault in #allherfault

Friend of mine once imagined a non-binary Jason Statham starring in a movie where the character pursues villains through a gritty criminal underworld trying to get people to correctly use pronouns.

The movie’s title: Jason They/Them

The Quizics guy? His passive-aggressive stuff is so awful!

Yeah that was excellent. We watched like 5 episodes in a row yesterday. Usually don’t do that but it just kept pulling us in.

It’s such a fun show! We’ve got like 20 minutes left in the final episode right now. There are so many looks she gives him throughout the season (and he deserves ALL of them). She’s great!

Case in point: the guy who slowed down and rolled down his window to tell us to “get a job.” He was holding a TRUMP bumper sticker as he did. Bro, if you are so into that guy, then why isn’t that sticker on your car? Also, your soul is gross.

The JOY DIVISION and POISON IDEA covers on that soundtrack are an excellent gateway!
