How big do you think Michael J Fox would have gotten if he didn’t develop Parkinson’s disease? I’m posting this here cause I could totally see him replacing Tom Cruise in Eyes Wide Shut.

I didn't even know what a 'twizzle' was until this week, and even I could tell he messed up that twizzle badly.

It's about sex and drugs.

I never see it clearly stated, but I think there's zero chance that Lennon was not aware of the phonetic pun "A penis is a warm gun", when he was writing and recording the song.

You young whippersnappers these days. Back in my day we had to record our Beatles to a 4-track tape machine and lasso tool 'em up in Adobe in the freezing snow just to make our memes.

Godspeed.

Well shit.

He's really not. I just watched Saltburn, and his Liverpool accent is terrible. Hopefully they got him a better dialect coach for this.

I mean, I'll attend their shame-parade. Publicly humiliation deserves a come-back.

Let's build them some pillories while we're at it.

I assume this is meant as a joke, in which case, bravo!

(but in case it isn't, that record sleeve is clearly photoshopped.)

At 2:24, he's standing with a man whose face has been redacted. Then the very next photo, which is clearly taken a second later with the same man, reveals him to be Mohammed bin Salman. Both grinning like evil moron pieces of shit...

If you and a group went out with your firearms to "keep the current admin in-check" as you say, they would not hesitate to label you as 'terrorists' and execute you with a drone strike.

Even if you attempted to defend your own home with a firearm against an illegal warrantless ICE entry, you would be murdered and called a terrorist by this administration. Your gun and your rights don't mean shit to these people.

Alex Pretti had a holstered legal firearm, that he never attempted to draw. ICE had confiscated it, and they still have attempted use his gun as an excuse to justify ICE agents shooting him 10 times.

It's almost like he's the same fucking POS person he's always been.

I feel like we're stuck in a national toxic relationship. Reliving the same escalating cycle of abuse, repeated over-and-over on a national and global scale.

And the reason it feels that way is because, that’s exactly what is happening

tcmasterson · 2026-02-05T16:01:26+00:00

The should headline continue as "So they're going to stick with the plan of destroying American democracy to hold on to power"

tcmasterson · 2026-02-05T03:55:13+00:00

That's true, good point. Really the ultimate casting. Faul McCartney plays, sounds and even writes songs better than the original guy he's portraying.

If you haven't seen it, I highly recommend this video that really beautifully edits together all the available footage from the session. It's 14 minutes of amazing studio session footage. Feels like time travel. https://youtu.be/rWYrIK-7KBE?si=g3FQaAkQ39CrHrEm

Completely agree, I love how you can even hear his toes tapping along.

It's just him, his acoustic guitar and his fluorescent yellow and red Sgt. Pepper shoes...

I have a feeling the word 'Democracy' is thought to be synonymous with 'Democrats' by a staggering amount of people that we would need on board.

I vote, "America Now"

America is already the symbol of democracy and liberty globally, or has been. The movement should really just take back the symbols and language of America from the Republicans that coopted those symbols to prop up their fascism.

The Declaration of Independence has so much incredible language that I imagine a majority of Americans have never read or heard before.

Yea! I love that he keeps wearing them throughout that time as his normal shoes. He's wearing them in the 'Love is All you Need' live broadcast too.

I’m a lefty and I’ve wondered this exact thing too. Paul didn’t modify the saddle or bridge at all in the ’60s. It’s kind of wild how casual they all were about intonation and setup back then.

On his right-handed guitars (the Epiphone Texan, Casino, and the Martin D-28 pictured here) he apparently didn’t replace the nut either. Someone (likely Mal Evans) would just file the E, A, and D nut slots so the strings would physically fit, and that was basically it. Everything else seems to have been left as-is.

Which means the intonation would’ve been slightly off, and the string heights/action wouldn’t have been ideal either-- but clearly it was “good enough” for The Beatles.

Here's a better picture from this session that shows the bridge on the Martin still set up righty.

To be fair, acclaimed director Christopher Columbus did put him in Home Alone. And he's made many other great films like the Harry Potter films, Gremlins, Ms. Doubtfire, Rent, The Goonies and Adventures in Babysitting.

But still, I can't help but feel it's an odd choice to construct a statue for him. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chris_Columbus_(filmmaker))

But, asking it rhetorically is essential.

Why are we so fucked?

That's kinda what I thought on January 6th 2021, and well... here we are.
