The Diplomat really hits different now that the east wing of the White House is gone.

It's taken me three days to finish PLAY DIRTY and I'm still not finished... and I'm quite a big fan of Shane Black's stuff. It's possibly the Marky Mark factor, who's to say?

AI is definitely not a virgin because we all get fucked by it every day.

For my Theory of Fiction and Film class this fall, I have both Fruitvale Station and The Sweet Hereafter on the syllabus. Am I the asshole?

Anyone still quibbling that this isn't fascism?

At times like this it’s important to remember that the Supreme Court is nothing more than a regular court with tomatoes and sour cream.

Happy Oh-My-Fuckin-God-Seven-Springsteen-Albums-Just-Dropped-Day to those who celebrate.
