I'm not the biggest #Rush fan but as they announced their return, I immediately thought of their simple but powerfully empathetic lyrics in "Subdivisions" and the terribly-enduring idea of "conform/be cool or be cast out."

We all know Amazon is not on our side. But NO big media is. That includes the big publishers. Even if you're as popular and loved as Stephen Colbert. They WILL sell you out if they think they need to.

CBS will end 'The Late Show with Stephen Colbert' next year
Colbert confirmed the cancellation during a show taping on Thursday. CBS said the move was "purely a financial decision against a challenging backdrop in late night."

If you live in a village of 10 people, and one of them lies about you being a witch, and the other 8 people believe the lie, it doesn't matter that you have the truth on your side. You're fucking dead.

Rejection letters are SO hard. It's a challenge not to take them personally.

It gets very tiring to repeatedly learn about geniuses (John Lennon probably the most famous example, but there are so many others) who treated their wives and children like shit.

What if fitted sheets were never meant to be folded, and normal people were only meant to own one sheet set, to be washed and put back on the bed on the same day? And that having more than one was considered material excess?

Stinging but funny moment in #Disclaimer when an elderly character enlists a Gen Z man to create a fake Instagram acct of a 19-year-old boy. Gen Z man suggests adding interests like favorite TV shows, sites, etc.
Old man asks what favorite books he should add.
Gen Z looks at him blankly. "Books?"

We are mammals. Captain Obvious reminds us that we have some unique qualities as humans, but we are still straight up mammals.
Interesting to me how this terrifies and repulses so many of us.
