15 years ago I exchanged two emails with Robert Towne. I mentioned that I was living in Universal City, trying to find inspiration living in the shadow of the NBC Universal building. He responded, "Try to find a better source of inspiration; I've always thought it looks like a big coffin."

The thing that's telling and exasperating about the centrist "Biden must drop out" calls is that... this was their guy! They act like the left insisted on him! But Biden was the guy they were saying Democrats should instead rally around when it looked like we might pick Bernie!

maybe I’ve just lost the plot but biden has like a 40 year history of needlessly kicking his own ass in various goofy new ways then popping out the other side giggling like the caddyshack gopher so I dunno what I’m supposed to do as far as freaking out that he’s up to it yet again

I have a podcast about major wide release movies that society collectively forgot. This week we talked about Barnyard, a 2006 animated children's comedy featuring Kevin James, Sam Elliott, and Shaggy which led us into extended discussions of "Animal Farm" and cow afterbirth. I think it's a banger.
A forgotten children’s film or an updated Orwellian parable about Bush-era politics? You decide! It’s Barnyard. www.podbean.com/ew/pb-isf4x-... Filmsky

While we're talking about reasons young people might move rightward, a few months ago someone noted that for a lot of kids, rage against successful anti-bullying initiatives stopping them from bullying queers like their dads want is effectively their political identity. That's the Republican base.

The only people who've ever held Trump meaningfully accountable over the last nine years have been ordinary Americans and they've spent that entire time being lectured to and berated by elites who've failed to do anything.

At some point Democratic elected officials will notice that when Donald Trump has a personal setback the majority of the population literally celebrates in the street, I hope.

It's so funny to read 60s-70s fantasy/sci-fi by men where there will be these beautiful women characters who are just psychotically bent on betraying or destroying the protagonist and it's like "oh right right you're the first widespread cohort of Divorced Guys"

@NBCNews: Social media has been buzzing with examples of Google’s new, “experimental” AI tool going awry. A Google spokesperson said the company believes users are deliberately attempting to trip up the technology with uncommon questions. https://t.co/Wj9iuKzzHk
