yeah, but the pathetic cringey-ness of thinking it would be so haha funny if you put an underwater shark to scare people doesn't feel like something rand would say. if the author of the email actually did get more votes than jeb, i'm guessing rubio. if they did not and were actually in the caucus, i would guess carly given the "love ya" at the end. of course, it could easily be some rando just making a joke like even i got more votes like i would say "even i could have thrown for more yards than drake maye in the super bowl." but if it is a truthful email, i have to think it is lil' marco which would certainly support the extent to which the administration is obstructing the transparency of these fucking documents.
a guy that had to be rescinded due to being engaged in sexual activity with minors that crossed state lines in charge of the epstein files? i mean, it's a take.
i am so annoyed that i actually subjected myself to that shit but... i couldn't help the whole time listening to her blather on being a caricature of the dumbfuck, white trash commentator that she seemed like "she had blood coming out of her eyes, and coming out of her...wherever."
I am utterly furious today. I just found out that woke Cervantes wrote Don Quixote in Spanish and not English. And did you know that Pablo Picasso didn't even paint in English? And Gaudi's "Holy Family" church is actually woke and called "Sagrada Familia?" I can't believe that Cervantes, Picasso, and Gaudi hate white Jesus (not Haysoos). (by the way, whenever I go on my very cultural trips to other countries as a tourist, I expect everyone there to speak English to me)
It is not the same kid fwiw. Unlike…apparently all of surly…I fucking love bad bunny’s music and have been a fan for a long time. Nadia sabe lo que va a pasar mañana is one of my top 50 albums (particularly the first half). language of the lyrics rarely matters to me…hell one of my favorite bands of all time (sigur ros) sings in Icelandic and famously in a made up language. I can look up the lyrics if I need to (though I would think that some of my fellow Texans would understand a lot more but guess I’m wrong about that). Benito annunciates in a pretty clear way in his vocals. I listen to an ungodly amount of opera so get a lot Italian and German but clearly Mozart, Verdi, and Puccini are trash for not writing in English. Edith Piaf’s music is unlistenable obviously Shakira can’t entertain. I wonder if the maga cult is ready to burn up all the traditional Christian mass music of the last two millennia written in………Latin? Lacrimosa! That said, I would have like to see BB de-medley some of it a bit and extend some of my preferred jams. Right when he was starting “Monaco” (which is a fucking badass track), he kicked it over to Gaga which was a bummer. Cool production but my set list would have been a bit different and I would have brought the party with dtmf in a more featured and extended way instead of it being a walk off. Anyway, if it contributes at all to dipshit stroking out, I’m up for whatever.
when i read something like this, i think to myself...what audience do these grifters imagine is still dumb, bored, or pliable enough to swallow something so aggressively stupid and obtuse. at some point, you'd think they would recognize that when a play is dead, quietly fold the hand and wait for a moment that the room is softer and marks easier. then i remember the parade of astonishingly hypocritical and idiotic nonsense i've read on this board over the past week from impressively vacant shit-for-brains like jkates and it clicks. jeez.
@Lurch , i found you a fairly simple solution for constructing your bedroom studio. you're gonna have to go with pro tools over logic to make this happen though. Nu•StudioNu•Studio
do you want to be on the water the whole time? you said aix as well...are you interested in some southern provence? having some sense of your predilections, i'd definitely recommend the hotel du cap eden-roc in cap d'antibes if you're trying to avoid the nice/cannes hustle and bustle but still be close. you guys would love it.
thanks for saving me the time. on the topic of music, if you haven't listened to max richter's score from hamnet yet, it is very, very good. i'll admit to being a max fanboy but this is his first work in the last couple of years that has been at his level of greatness he established with his scores of "the leftovers," "my brilliant friend," "ad astra," and "disconnect." "Of the undiscovered country" is my favorite track that's new. they use "on the nature of daylight' but that's been getting inserted into movies for 20+ years now.
watched it last night. enjoyed it but will certainly not a repeat watch. score was distractingly bad imo. dialogue between plemons and stone was entertaining.
for clarity, my post above was strictly about the original song category. i enjoyed the first half of "sinners" a great deal but thought the second half of it was dumb and lame. the lied to me scene was incredibly well done and the song was constructed across the genres perfectly imo. from an overall movie perspective, of the movies i have seen this year that were nominated, i probably enjoyed one battle after another the most with hamnet second. that said, i was completely unaware of a movie featuring margaret and aubrey throwing down so my opinions are subject to revision shortly. the sinners scene i thought was so brilliantly done (as an enthusiast in music history and the sheer genius of and impact of 19th and early 20th century southern blues on pretty much all music that people have listened to pretty much since then): the movie making of this scene was brilliant. makes it incredible how stupid AF it got after it.
"i lied to you" in sinners was an absolute masterpiece of an original song for use in the movie. that scene was utterly captivating and the primary reason that the movie gets so much love. and everything after that scene in the movie was shit while everything leading up to it was great.
