Lee Aaron Rosen @leeaaronrosen.bsky.social · 13/10/2026Long before we knew what a monster he is — back in the days of Jell-O pudding pops and Huxtables — I once said, “Who doesn’t like Bill Cosby?” My grandma said “I don’t like him.” She never said why. “I just don’t like him.” Grandma, you were right! You knew more than any of us. 0110

Lee Aaron Rosen @leeaaronrosen.bsky.social · 12/10/2026The thing is, one of the things that makes Lonesome Dove such a classic is its sensitivity. In their own ways, Gus and Call have to acknowledge their own vulnerability. They reckon with the fear of their own mortality. They show kindness. It’s so much more than “tough guys.” 2321
Lee Aaron Rosen @leeaaronrosen.bsky.social · 11/10/2026I envy you both. I have, at separate points in my life, passed Karl Rove, Roger Stone, and Martin Shkreli on the streets in New York, and I was too slow to react every time. I regret not saying something. Or punching them. 150
Lee Aaron Rosen @leeaaronrosen.bsky.social · 10/10/2026And it was worth it! I’m usually pretty good at identifying (non-famous) British actors doing American accents, even if they’re doing a great job. But he had me completely fooled. It wasn’t until after the Season 1 finale that I looked him up online and learned the truth. 040
Lee Aaron Rosen @leeaaronrosen.bsky.social · 10/10/2026Doing an accent all day is fine if you’re cool about it. Worked with an Irish guy who stayed in his American accent between takes because it would have been hard for him to get back into it. But he was a lovely guy! No sending used condoms to castmates or any of that nonsense. 190

Yet murders are down almost 20%, year over year. 203 people have been slain, about 22.5 per month. In 1990, that average was *251 per month.* NYC has never been this safe. 26916170
Lee Aaron Rosen @leeaaronrosen.bsky.social · 04/10/2026I dunno man, if I were a shoo-in first ballot Hall of Famer making hundreds of millions of dollars in a market that loved me unequivocally and happens to be one of the most beautiful places in America, I’d probably stay put.

Lee Aaron Rosen @leeaaronrosen.bsky.social · 30/09/2026Even if someone were remembered for centuries, and even if the world grew into a utopia for all that lasted millennia, eventually the heat death of the universe will mean that there will be no one around to remember us anyway.

Lee Aaron Rosen @leeaaronrosen.bsky.social · 23/09/2026This is because these cretins have no theory of mind.
