I once heard a directors commentary on the Simpsons and they talked about hiring musicians to perform the band class part. Groening said they kept playing too good - like they played in time with e/o etc. I’m sure it’s crazy hard for a pro to be beginner bad

Interesting! Idk how it is in law, but in news, you sometimes have to pre-write before all the facts are nailed down. Like on election night, for example. That’s so when they call it it at 9 pm you can file it quick and go home instead of waiting until 9 to start writing

I liked it plenty and think about the PSH shooting craps all the time

Anyway, my not obvious fave is PDL. Love that movie.

Every post I see rightfully complaining about Dem elected being helpless makes me think “fine. Fuck them. We’ll do this ourselves”
