In the kitchen Marc sings exactly one line of "Corn Dog Life" (namely, "it's a corn dog life for us"), and the song returns to the ether

I'm not sure Jesus would find evil in the act of transgressing national borders in part because I don't think Jesus would have had a good sense of what that even is?

I need people to stop referring to conversion "therapy" as something that's been discredited or doesn't work. That's like saying torture is "discredited" or doesn't work. That they don't work for their stated purpose is secondary to the fact that they DO work for their REAL purpose:

Remember in the 90s when action movies went out of their way to guarantee the audience didn't think their heroes were gay?

So anyway "Wood" eh?

Although I will say if you slotted Buckingham in place of Lanois in literally every job the latter ever had I think we'd be living in a much more interesting world aesthetically

A throng of bearded men, in sad-colored garments and gray, steeple-crowned hats, intermixed with women, some wearing hoods, and others bareheaded, was assembled in front of a wooden edifice, the door of which was heavily timbered with oak, and studded with iron spikes. Congress has not authorized th

This isn’t just β€œhey, I like this other old artist from the 20th century”. It’s about erasure of Black artists β€” again β€” and the difference between a billionaire buying off _and rewarding_ those who owned her masters, and someone *actually fighting* those who controlled their master recordings.

BESIDES WHICH the stakes for Prince could not have been higher. For a solid decade from 93 to 03 people bent over backward to find a way to call him crazy or uppity in so many words because of his fighting. The legacy isn't just music, he's the giant on whose shoulders people like t swift stand

One way of thinking about the AI bubble is that it's the final gasp of a grift based on specialized GPU's instead of tulips, a logical continuation from crypto and NFT's and the metaverse.

Like, there's nowhere else for it to go, no other magical use for this shit other than as electronic waste.

Watched an old Patton Oswalt bit about Bill Alexander and looked him up and happened upon this one where he's like "well my mom said I'd die poor and I hated myself my whole life but you people love me" and you know what I do

I understand when/that a media franchise has its hooks in you

But can't we just, without judgement in either direction, move on?

Can we treat stuff like sweet valley high or goosebumps? Nobody's ever said I'm doing myself a disservice by not still paying attention to those things

Pharmacists who recommend homeopathy should be willing to accept as payment envelopes that once contained money.
