1.) Unless there’s some twist to it the trailers don’t show, that new Amy Schumer flick about a good looking woman who isn’t good looking in movie world suddenly believing she’s conventionally super-hot, like jeez “problematic” gets thrown around a lot but, oh boy. Pro. Blem. A. Tic.

2.) Some days, you’re back in the saddle again. Some days, you’re back in the sad hole again.

3.) Antique flea markets: 99.99% crap, 0.01% really neat stuff marked up to three times what anyone sane would pay for it so it will never sell. It’s a hell of a metaphor.

4.) Why do I continue to sign with my middle initial? I’m the last of my kind, now, I’m the last of this unpronounceable name. Sentimentality? Denial? Reflex?

5.) The thing about the Trump junta is it was NEVER funny. There was never a funny thing about it. It was always simply cruel and terrifying. There was never “oh, both sides, would’a been just as bad” “LOL, let it all burn down” no. The madness is coming down now. It was never funny.

6.) Homeland creating a goddamn enemies list of journalists & public figures is ACTUAL government suppression of free speech through intimidation, you jackals. Your twitter or youtube channel getting banned for being racist, that was just a business pressured into being humane.

7.) Your rights don’t extend beyond the tip of your nose. Your responsibilities extend to the entire human race, every single nose-tip there is. When you lose sight of either for the other, you lose sight of what you’re here to do. When you find that balance, you’re being humane.

8.) The biggest problem on all sides is people choosing to believe the lies that flatter them. The far left believed lies about Clinton because it flattered them as “revolutionaries” & “in the know”. The right’s flattered by Trump’s lies that make them feel survival-y & exceptional.

9.) Mash-up idea: Led Zeppelin “Thank You” vs Marshall Tucker Band “Can’t You See?”

10.) Exchange Lemmy from Motorhead with Lenny from “Of Mice And Men” and you’d have one hell of a story either way. Actually, you could switch either with Lenny from Laverne And Shirley to quality effect too.

11.) to the tune of “Can’t Help Falling In Love With You” - it’s not real… only trolls, Russian… it’s Vlad Putin’s… prop-a-gand-a… not.... news…

12.) A really complicated video game would be SITAR HERO.

13.) Is an old Bossa nova record considered a Brazilian wax?
