I know jester applications are gonna be an avalanche but I still like my chances. If that fails I’ll go into publishing and be one of the guys turning s’s back into f’s
Trying to decide on a career for when the economy crashes and we return to the ancient times. I'm leaning toward soothsayer but I'm also open to banditry

Inscrutable practices of the Prince estate and unfortunate timing along a host of much more impressive reissues (including THREE of Minnesota’s other proudest exports) aside, I hope the Around the World in a Day reissue gets it a fresh look. Such a fascinating left turn at a moment of world conquest

I know we ran “as a kid, he taught me it was ok to be weird” into the ground years ago but bringing it back unironically to say RIP Udo Kier, who was serving right up to the end.

I’m sure they’ve played it more than once but the Fox Theater in Atlanta showed this when I was a kid and already loved it but seeing that movie in a theater with this interior was otherworldly.

Having been shocked by how much I enjoyed Wicked Pt 1 I held out hope I would enjoy the second movie but hoo boy what a shitshow. Simultaneously dragged out to a ludicrous degree and belligerently rushed on all the emotional beats, done like a MCU movie more than a musical. Ruinously straight.

Thanks so much to GQ for publishing my liner notes for the new Replacements 'Let It Be' boxset, out on Friday. Extra special thanks to Jessica Hopper, Patterson Hood and Brian Paulson for their extraordinary insights. What an absolute joy this project has been to work on. www.gq.com/story/when-t...
When The Replacements' Courage Was at its Peak
On their 1984 album ‘Let It Be,’ the Minneapolis indie-rock wastrels spewed a message of working-class passion and outsider solidarity into the world's answering machine.

The Master is maybe the best American two-hander of the 21st century but for me the defining scene of it is this moment where one of Dodd’s most faithful believes in him so much she spots a discrepancy and in earnestly seeking to reconcile it this happens youtu.be/WPa_XrE6tbU?...

Every day of his miserable life Trump is shuttled between rooms by a series of viziers who all look like a racist version of Dobby to talk to women who all got the same surgery to look like Skyrim NPCs and here comes this communist who look…he look so beautiful
everyone's talking about how bright and charming zohran must be, which is true, but then you remember the spider-brained cryptkeepers trump's surrounded himself with since '15 and realize a single smile from mamdani must have hit like barbecue spare ribs down the gullet of a 12th century peasant.
