MAMDANI SCANDAL: Mayor Said To Think Several Songs From “We Shall All Be Healed” Are On “The Sunset Tree”

The long-time, seasoned They Might Be Giants fans at this show are all wearing different vintages of band t-shirt like it's the Eras tour. That's what this is. It's the Eras Tour for public radio nerds.

So far at the TMBG show there's been reasonable parking, loads of people wearing sensible raincoats and the only guy with a large bag is insulin-dependent and the security dude was totally cool about it. I am among my people.

There's something uniquely adult about ensuring you eat a relatively healthy dinner before a show instead of just shoving pizza or a burger in your mouth on the way there.

Seeing this at age 12 or 13 I think may have been the thing that unlocked my inner horror fan.

Feeling existential dread and questioning your life choices upon meeting your once-screwy high school classmate's baby? You know what to do.

That's right, from The Saga of Crystar, Lavour, the buck naked lava lady! We're eating Crystar-heads.

I'm sure my belief that Buster *knows* what he's doing when he lies on top of me when I'm crying or stressed is probably semi-hokum. I also know that it feels pretty good. Anyway, this is neat.

Bake-off is back, and I'm so happy to spend the next several weeks claiming this is my comfort show when actually it's the most terrifying thing on television.

Until now I haven't really seen the Twin Peaks connections to The Prisoner, but now I've encountered Degree Absolute and like...I get it now.

Girls only want one thing and it's a big 'ol room with a canopy bed so we can draw the curtains and read gothic romance by candlelight late into the night.

I was really hoping NYT would stop asking Nicholas Sparks to weigh in on best of anything after they did the film list, but nope!

It's not just Jack Haven. Many of your favourite actors are struggling right now. Being famous doesn't necessarily mean you're also rich, and the majority of SAG members don't qualify for health insurance. I wrote about it. www.pajiba.com/film_reviews...

I'm well aware that not all of these shows were perfect start to finish (the last season of GoT simply does not exist for me) but I went by pure delight, and nothing has made me feel like these shows did at their respective peaks, except Happy Endings which is Oops All Peaks.

My top shows: Deadwood, Happy Endings, Breaking Bad, Severance, Widow's Bay, The Great British Bake Off, Game of Thrones, 30 Rock, Parks and Recreation, Community

We've got another winner!! Tahani likes Mr. Vampire (but only pays attention when vampires and ghosts show up).

The air outside is cool. The sky is overcast. I feel a deep desire to curl up on the couch with a quilt and watch scary movies with a beer in my hand. My body already knows: fall is here.

Fortunately we've all collectively reclaimed A Knight's Tale as objectively good, so my taste remains unquestioned.

From my fanzine (early 1996), as part of a Guided By Voices interview: made-up track listing (by me) for one of their future LPs. Still kind of hurt they didn't use 'Sickening Couriers'.

A list of fictional songs by the band Guided By Voices, including the anthemic 'A Softer Seabird' and the once-heard, never-forgotten 'Sickening Couriers'.

Homeownership is texting your friend down the street and wishing each other the best of luck with mowing the tall-ass grass you can no longer ignore like you're both about to ride into battle.
