Not sure what kind of day you are having, but I guarantee it's better than the guy I just overheard in the men's room having a tense phone call with his boss about work performance while also frantically scrubbing his underwear because he had shit his pants.
How do I know that? The poor guy had stripped down and all of his clothes were visible under the stall door. The place reeked and you could hear him scrubbing. They've since emergency cleaned the entire restroom.
Shit no! But wifey does, and I want her to be happy. Besides, the kitchen does need to be renovated: it's all no work space and shit storage arrangements. The kitchen's made of stuff that was cheap 20 years ago, and hasn't aged well.

Jaysus! I'm so glad that I've never had to put up with that kind of crap.
Eric, did you hear that "Your Time Is Gonna Come" cover Tune-Yards did for XMU? It's from like a year ago but I never managed to catch it until recently. It blew my ears back.
Yah.... we can not seem to catch a fucking break. She was elected after the last mayor Sheila Dixon also resigned in scandal.
I mean honestly, it's a pretty good grift. Who is going to investigate some cute little books intended to improve children's nutritional habits?
But the hard reality is that we desperately need a great mayor to take on our current Governor and get equitable funding for our education and transportation systems. Every time this kind of two-bit bullshit goes down, we get further from that.
The new Andrew Bird album is called My Best Work Yet and he ain't wrong. He still mixes in a bunch of violin and whistling. And he still sometimes writes rock n roll lyrics like a guy who would bring up Camus at a keg party. But he's really on point thematically for our cultural moment. And the music has some unexpected soul. Honestly, many of the instrumental backing tracks could be used without modification for Erykah Badu to sing over or for Wu Tang Clan to spit verses over. It's also good front to back, which is increasingly rare these days.
When the best lack all conviction And the worst keep sharpening their claws They're peddling their dark fictions While what's left of us, well, we just hem and we haw
I'll be paying my taxes. Does anyone know if we are supposed to just mail our checks directly to the Walton family? Seems like it would cut down on administrative costs.

I'm just ready to hustle my way through training and make some real money.

guh.
The whole press conference is worth a watch. They do a pretty good job of breaking down the process and talk about some implications of the results.

Allll his favorite tropes are in there. Unreliable narrator, funny/scary giants, dream logic, masquerade masks, etc.
As with many of his best movies, there is a two track story. One real and one hallucinated and he jumps back and forth often.
He spends less time explaining why he's showing you one track or the other, so you have to be mentally very loose to not feel knocked around a bit.
I'd say it's part Munchausen, part Fisher King.
I'm not sure if this review will be at all helpful, as it's unclear if it will ever see the light of day after last night's one-off screening.
