Thanks. I saw it on a big screen the other night (VIDIOTS!) and it's still a funny damn movie.

Michael C. Rockefeller got shipwrecked in 1963, washed up on an island, and was promptly eaten by cannibals.

Actually, a shared opinion should never include the word “actually”.

This is almost word for word what xenophobes in the 1930s and 1940s said about Miller's Jewish ancestors and relatives. He's so hateful he couldn't possibly recognize that of course.

Got the date wrong of course: it’s 12/16-12/21. You would have been so early!

Bay Area Alert: if you don't see Jefferson Mays' magnificent solo A Christmas Carol at Berkeley Rep this Friday you've only yourself to blame. It's a beaut.

Great season here at Oregon Shakespeare Festival: fine Julius Caesar, beautiful Quixote Nuevo, Shane (!), which is phenomenal and Lisa Peterson’s brilliant As You Like It. Get ye to Ashland before 10/26!

In just a few days, you can see SPINAL TAP II: THE END CONTINUES on various large screens around the world. I’d recommend it, if only for the greatness. And the loudness. Plus Junior Mints.

This photo was taken of miners at the end of their shift during the Gilded Age before they were unionized. This Labor Day remember the blood, sweat, and tears that those before us paid to give the working class the basic rights we enjoy today. #UnionStrong #HappyLaborDay #NoGodsNoMasters

It’s long past time you all stopped using “Congress” when you mean “Republicans”. Not a single Democrat voted for this hot mess of an appointment. This endless grind to maintain a non-partisan tone, despite the partisanship of our fascist reality, is willfully blind, & a betrayal of your country.

Good song, though. Also heard a rumor that Jack Haley was originally cast as Doc Golightly, but was allergic to the makeup.
