The universe has, once agained, reaffirmed the decision 15 year old me made to go all-in on Pearl Jam as my favorite band. Nothing else I did at that age has stood the test of time so well...

One of the things I'll never understand about homophobia, transphobia, racism- all the "isms" in general- is why anyone holds onto them because doing so is just plain exhausting. Being scared and angry all the time is an absolutely miserable way to live your life when you don't even hafta...

Whenever we come across something that is a big deal, we say "It could mean actual advances in the field of science!" which is a quote from the movie "The Lost Skeleton of Cadavera" that nobody outside my gene pool as seen.

Just told my 10yo daughter about Kimberly Guilfoyle. She had tears in her eyes. And then she did the Wakanda pose and said “#Cocainekanda forever” — which is the sort of pop culture cross-over I can celebrate.

here's the thing: the Shane Gillises of the world have never had to be afraid; but every last one of them is insecure. they understand, in vague clowning gestures, that a level playing field--an equitable society--favors merit. take one guess as to why that threatens them.

Drinking a well-mixed manhattan and listening to live jazz in a dark midtown NYC bar. I don’t care about where my soul goes after I die cause I’m in heaven now.

Boy there is nothing quite like spending a Sunday in your own yard under a pleasant sun digging your fingers into the Earth to grow and nurture plants that will nourish bees and help heal the cycle of nature to make a man think “F&$k I wish I bought a condo instead.”

In 1991, if you gave my local youth pastor $200 and told him to make a video that the kids would be “down with,” he’d have produced something more professional looking than this: www.youtube.com/watch?v=xb27...

I t is sad that, lost in all the discourse over Shane Gillis' obvious mysogyny, is just how painfully hack and unfunny he is.

For years, one of the conservative criticisms of rap and hip-hop revolved around what they termed “stupid lazy language” while never understanding that rappers put more thought into syntax, grammar and structure than 99% of English speakers.

A guy I worked with in MN for most of ‘01 and was pretty friendly with had been reported missing by Miami PD back in ‘87. I stumbled across his Poster on a missing persons website 15 years later. (Yes, I did call Miami PD to report it.)

Random thought of the day: I never again in my life need or want to watch another version of Dicken’s A Christmas Carol. It is the ne plus ultra of creative bankruptcy.

America’s experience with billionaires has taught us that in “A Christmas Carol,” after the ghost of Christmas Future revealed the disastrous consequences of his actions, Ebeneezer would’ve tripled down on exploiting Bob Crachett.

The original movie The Thing From Another World (1952) is superior to John Carpenter’s remake The Thing (1982)
