Both involve a very macho, rich conservative who wants to squeeze every last cent he can out of media, no matter how tasteless, and his strange preoccupation with a creative talent very very low on the org chart. And like Liz, obsessed with food, bad hygiene, lonely, etc.

Watching THE CRITIC animated series for the first time since it first aired and wondering if anyone else also noticed some strong similarities to 30 ROCK? I don’t know if it was a conscious influence but I’m seeing it!

I think the times made a difference. Like once upon a time, when one company bought another it was because they wanted that company to be a key part of the business and helped make it more successful. Now companies, especially tech like AT&T, buy other companies just for the sake of “growth.”

here's to Neil Tennant at 70. His review of "Eyes Without a Face" in Smash Hits, 1984 ("he doesn't have a great voice & the words are utter drivel but sounds affectingly sincere") & various singles in '82 ("all today's trendy sounds on 1 single. unfortunately there's no tune & tunes are trendy too")

I have read this issue and it’s really really good. Yet another novel and compelling concept and cast from Kieron and career best artwork from Caspar. You’ll want to read the next issue immediately, which, of course, is The Job. And I agree the new cover is more fitting. Hope you’ll check this out!

Watched BLADE RUNNER again for the zillionth time. My only real complaint about Ridley Scott’s Final Cut is changing Roy’s amazing line “I want more life, FUCKER” to father.

Had a moment like this late last night. Really wanted ice cream. Thought, “I’m a grownup, I can go to the store at midnight and get ice cream if I want to!” And I did!

The republicans have always been better at this because they don’t have any actual policies principles to squabble over; they’re all very easily unified over who they hate.

Sorry to say the whole time I lived at home, my mom just had to wake me up herself. And then come back and nag me to get up and get ready. And I was grouchy and nasty and it sucked. But it worked.

There’s some confusion about whether Carmy actually worked at Eleven Madison Avenue in NYC because he was seen reading a book by its owner Daniel Humm, and Richie called him an “eleven Madison asshole.” So he may have been there too?

It’s really in no one in power’s interests to have a functional or effective news media. So decoupling it from the existing capitalist media ecosystem is necessary; making it not-for-profit; making it an enterprise unaccountable to shareholders…and I dunno how you do that today w/out a benefactor.

It must be incredibly discouraging, the economics of recorded music. I read an interview with Stevie Nicks where she said it wasn’t worth the agony of recording another original album, and that’s still probably selling millions of copies - only many millions fewer than she used to.

That one came on in the car last week and I played it at maximum volume. Hadn’t really blasted it in years. Wish they’d do those big remix projects for the newer stuff.

It is literally not possible to have any idea what Project 2025 without also knowing it's the end-all be-all goal of the Heritage Foundation, which they brag about constantly now that they think it's in reach again. They won't let you know it exists without knowing that it's *their* idea!

Isn't it interesting that they're trying to frame themselves as initiating *that* war instead of the Civil War? Wannabe Confederates still don't like being called what they are. Probably because it reminds them they lost the first time.

Weird to see conservatives arguing with each other over this SCOTUS shit. Half of them are pretending it’s a legit a defense of the constitution, while the other half are like “No no no, the republic hasn’t worked out for us, that’s why we like this!”
