Today in Music History: 1984: After eight weeks being stuck on how to complete the lyric “People are…,” Depeche Mode’s Martin Gore has a sudden epiphany while sitting at the pub with his mates.

Just re-watched The Last Seduction for the first time in a long time. - genius level performance by Linda Fiorentino totally holds up - the transphobic twist is so wrong and insane. I had entirely erased it from my memory - same for the sexual violence scene - Bill Pullman 🙌🏼

I fantasize that there was one network exec in the 80s and 90s whose only note for showrunners was always “cool, but add an exotic pet.” In my mind, this theoretical suit was responsible for both the alligator in Miami Vice and the monkey in Friends.

Imagine the government telling a musician “we don’t criminalize you or your music, but we will do anything it takes to arrest and harass anyone who may want to come to your show or even listen to your music online.” This is what Sweden, France and many US states tell sex workers.

“The Nordic Model, despite numerous rebrands, still causes significant harm to sex workers. Sex workers cannot work together for safety, and still bear the brunt of criminalisation. ‘We’ve created an environment which is absolutely perfect for abusing sex workers.’”

THE NORDIC MODEL
(AKA the Swedish Model, Client Criminalization, or the “Equality Model”)
WHAT: selling sex is indirectly criminalized, buying sex is illegal, third parties are illegal
WHERE: Sweden, Ireland, Northern Ireland, France, Israel, Canada
IMPACT:
- Sex workers have a reduced ability to screen clients and negotiate, meaning they take more risks and are unable to employ safety strategies
- Increased violence against sex workers – 92% more violent crimes against sex workers reported to UglyMugsle following the introduction of client criminalization
- “We’ve somehow created an environment that is absolutely perfect for abusing sex workers” (Smyth in Amnesty International, 2022)

My script takes place in a parallel reality in which former SNL cast members move on with their lives and don’t ever mention the brief period of their life when they did network sketch comedy again.

Being a Steven Conrad fan means suffering through how atrociously his BRILLIANT series are marketed by the networks that fund him. “DTF St. Louis” is the perfect film noir for this age. Conrad is working at peak-era-Coen Bros. level. And this is how HBO marketed it:

The universal language and culture of the modern world is middle management. The nightmare flip side of the capitalist hero is the scammer. Nathan Fielder v. Elizabeth Holmes is the bourgeois Wrestlemania of our time. In this essay

People explaining Nathan Fielder to newbies in terms of “Nathan for You” is giving someone explaining the White Album Beatles as “four mop tops who play RnB and say yeah yeah yeah a lot.”

Question for my fellow James Ellroy heads: I keep buying and enjoying the novels. Even as the prose keeps getting boocoo abstract. Stacatto is now at its boffo wildest. Dig. But how are the normies digesting this? Is this the weirdest a "best-seller" author has gotten on them?

RIP Tim Curry. He was ALWAYS memorable regardless of the project. That’s the highest praise for an actor. And Frank is one of the greatest, most revolutionary performances in film history. Not debatable.

Not to take anything away from the (deserved) award-preseason praise for the two leads, but Amanda Fix in “Camp Miasma” is really incredible. Giving peak Nastassja Kinski vibes, and making a whole meal out of the movie-within-a-movie assignment.
