Captioned stills from Episode 27 of Twin Peaks. In the first image, Windom Earle asks "Garland, what do you fear most in the world?". In the second, the captive Garland Briggs responds "The possibility that love is not enough."

Plain and simple my politics is that nobody should be wealthy enough to make their insecurities my problem.

with some very minor tweaking, these all apply to music, too

great 🧵:

This set of observations is produced by my scrolling Reddit and otherwise listening to people talk about "how to write."

A) there is no requirement that any of your characters has any sort of "arc" let alone a redemption.

B) there is also no requirement that your fiction has a plot.

Odd that my favorite tracks by each of two John McEntire- related bands both share the same name.

the only true short cuts i have found for re-building electric guitar chops after being away from the instrument for a while (ie. having not been practicing every day):

1) warm up on acoustic
2) warm up on bass
3) caffeine

So sorry to hear of the death of The Cure's Perry Bamonte, a former guitar tech who stepped up to become a full member for 15 years, an invaluable Swiss Army knife multi-instrumentalist. Every fan loved seeing him back on board for the Lost World tour. R.I.P. 'Teddy'. Love to his family & friends. x

Today is the 20th anniversary of the release of Munich, the first movie my husband wrote for Steven Spielberg and a film I still can't believe got made. I am obviously biased but...just watch it. I genuinely don't think it could be done now.

I do not trust anything in this article on the sources of Jeffrey Epstein’s wealth. My former boss Bob Gold was apparently a major source. Bob Gold is a fabulist to the extreme. I heard him retell stories where I was at the underlying event. His tales almost never matched reality.

Virginia Heffernan wrote this shortly after the 2016 election and it still holds true
THIS is what makes my head spin: The president is not a moral figure in any idiom, any land, any culture, any subculture. I'm not talking about the liberal enlightenment that would make him want the country to take care of the poor and sick. I mean he has no Republican values either. He has no honor among thieves, no cosa nostra loyalty, no Southern code against cheating or lying, none of the openness of New York, rectitude of Boston, expressiveness and kindness of California, no evangelical family values, no Protestant work ethic. No Catholic moral seriousness, no sense of contrition or gratitude. No Jewish moral and intellectual precision, sense of history. He doesn't care about the life of the mind OR the life of the senses. He is not mandarin, not committed to inquiry or justice, not hospitable. He is not proper. He is not a bon vivant who loves to eat, drink, laugh. There's nothing he would die for - not American values, obviously, but not the land of Russia or his wife or young son. He has some hollow success creeds from Norman Vincent Peale, but Peale was obsessed with fair-dealing and a Presbyterian pastor; Trump has no fairness or piety. He's not sentimental; no affection for dogs or babies. No love for mothers, "the common man"" veterans. He has no sense of military valor, and is openly a coward about war. He would have sorely lacked the pagan beauty and capacity to fight required in ancient Greece. He doesn't care about his wife or wives; he is a philanderer but he's not a romantic hero with great love for women and sex. He commands loyalty and labor from his children not because he loves them, even; he seems almost to hate them — and if one of them slipped it would be terrifying. He does no philanthropy. He doesn't - in a more secular key - even seem to have a sense of his enlightened self-interest enough to shake Angela Merkel's hand. Doesn't even affect a love for the arts, like most rich New Yorkers. He doesn't live and die by aesthetics and health practices like some fascists; he's very ugly and barely mammalian. Am I missing an obscure moral system to which he so much as nods? Also are there other people, living or dead, like him?

Youtube comments section continues to the be the craziest comments section on the internet. Undefeated for 20 years.
Youtube comments from an unnamed user: "My big brother was cool, he was one of the first to shower with blacvk men where he worked and he stood tall" "He got no black eyes, he was 6 feet four" "He loved jazz"
