Lmao they just changed the title of the piece from “Why I don’t vote” to “Why I won’t vote” rather than tell readers that the guy actually does vote

The fur caveman vest of the late 1960s fascinates me because it became the mainstream media's go-to symbol of hippiedom -- right down to Sonny Bono sporting one to fake countercultural cred -- and yet it was nowhere to be seen on actual hippies.

The thing I can't stop thinking about is this: I'm 48, and in my adult lifetime there has been one Republican who won the popular vote. But I will probably spend the rest of my life under the authority of a Supreme Court dominated by hard right conservatives. How is that democracy?

I don't want some egghead bureaucrat telling me whether there's poison in the water I drink. Ideally I'd want that decided by a 29yo judge who went to a "biblical law school" and does not believe dinosaurs existed, and then to have that decision reaffirmed six years later by the Supreme Court.

One thing among many I like about this sentence is that it's perfectly competent and in no way memorable. If you didn't know what story it came from, I doubt you'd be able to pick it out of a lineup.

Mentioning those four movies undersells Sutherland's brilliance. He could go into any film--as foil, menace, wild card, patriarch, villain, monster, comic/anarchic force, center of gravity, two-scene wonder--and just nail the world, the role, the assignment. We'll be watching him forever.
