Four years before Scorsese put “Werewolves Of London” in TCOM Warren Zevon regularly dedicated “Accidentally Like A Martyr” to Marty on tour. My fave is the Boston bootleg where he also quotes the Biblical epigraph from RAGING BULL.

Felt compelled to write a grinchy piece about how KPMG put the gender pay gap into their 12 Days of Christmas costings for seemingly no reason at all.

The great rewiring: is social media really behind an epidemic of teenage mental illness?
The evidence is equivocal on whether screen time is to blame for rising levels of teen depression and anxiety — and rising hysteria could distract us from tackling the real causes.
