The specter of right-wing extremism must give way to ... to ... the neoliberal consensus? Wait, what was so great about the neoliberal consensus anyway? (keeps looking)

The people today complaining were watching Wrestlemania then

And if you do say a death is tragic, what happens when death after death is reported? Dozens, scores. Hundreds.
That's another reason why you let the facts tell the story if you can.

My training as a journalist makes me ill-suited for other kinds of writing. I was trained to lead readers right up to where they decide how they feel and then stop. I loathe using words like "tragic." I feel I deprive readers of the right to say, "That's horrible!" if I editorialize.

They threw it away

Jefferson felt that politics should be close to people who smelled of dung, to better protect democracy. Kunstler uses this to explain why our cities were deprived of monumental architecture and great buildings were planted amid cowtowns.

The TACO comments are, at bottom, about bullies being cowards.

Death Before Dishonor (1987) - Trailer HD 1080p YouTube video by Grindhouse Movie Trailers

I know it's so stupid but this trailer always makes me laugh. Yesterday's propaganda always looks as obvious as a thumb in your eye.

Man who fatally struck 3-year-old Cedar Springs girl faces additional child abuse charge The 33-year-old told investigators at the scene that he and the child were racing when she was struck.

I imagine he had to be wasted to think it was a good idea to race his fiancee's daughter in his truck. The girl's brother told him to stop because he ran her over. Cops said he's drunk every day. He said the girl ran under his truck.

Well, there's your bankrupt "pro-life" BS on display for all to see.

The USA as a psychological conditioning experiment.

USA is white because your chances of being killed in a foreign country fall to zero.

Except people in the audience were saying, "He's mad!" instead of clapping and cheering

I had a POWER record when I was a kid that had a clever impersonator take control of the White House and hope to start a nuclear war. He sounded a lot like the current president.

Pittsburgh: Soots me fine

Let's all watch that scene from T2 one more time

I was living in NYC and had a surprise visit from some of my girlfriend's pals. I had rented "Lured" and normally wouldn't have put in on for out-of-towners. They all sat in stunned silence because LOOSEE was in a Douglas Sirk drama and they were so confused.

I have seen this many times but I still love it. I get little twangs seeing my favorite character actors crop up.

It makes no sense to subsidize companies that replace humans with machines in the hopes that they will create jobs.

Just get the schnaaps version?

I always felt "support our troops" meant "support our wars" so I don't have to change my ways.

That time my buddy and I tried to produce Detroit's most violent punk rock comic.

Big crush for little me

I asked about people and they wanted to talk about ideas.

About 30 years ago, a friend taught me how to sing "Climb Every Mountain" and add MFing as an adjective. Still do it.

Reading of the early effort to tunnel to Canada, this passage put me in the mind of watching the tot play Minecraft.

... monocle falls in caviar ....

Two political parties, both blind, one free, one in bind.
