I listened to it yesterday as well as my favo(u)rite songs on his first two records. It made me lament what might have been again but at the same time I have to admire him for shifting stride. His best songs in his early phase are better than the Jam’s best songs (hooks-wise I mean — they’re not...

Geez, take it easy. I hope more people understand this reference. :)

The way to get it done right is to have it in Rome, though we did find a store that sells high-quality guanciale in Berkeley.

This one will be hard for me but I will try to listen with fresh ears. The crushing disappointment of Beat Crazy and Jumpin’ Jive after the brilliance of Look Sharp! and the underrated (but not as good save the title track) I’m The Man — both of which I loved — at a young impressionable age made...

2 things — 1) Steinbeck! I mentioned Faulkner. Steinbeck a far, far better comparison. 2) Is there a song by Leonard Cohen that is funny? Not asking snarkily — I actually want to know. I didn’t find much in the 2-3 offerings I’ve heard.

He’s a pretty big wheel down at the cracker factory. Or was until he got sacked.

Dislike!!! :)

1) Neutrality is relative . . . especially in pop music. My comments regarding narration are relative (specifically, relative to another band). 2) I agree -- its hard to parse the reason though without knowing more about the artist, per my comment. 3) I don't think I dismissed any of this...

I thought it couldn’t be real but apparently it is. Feel bad for the staffers.

This record should in theory be the complete opposite of everything I love about music: slow poetry (in this case, short stories), recited with misplaced gravitas, with the music as barely an afterthought. And indeed I was ready to give up after five songs that can be boiled down to, basically...

I saw the purported email with Epstein telling a name-redacted person not to bring black women to the island (or somewhere) because Trump doesn’t like them, further noting that Trump refers to them in a term that I’ve not heard before but have deemed too offensive to type. I’m sure someone can...

Apparently the names of the men who shot Alex Pretti have been unearthed.

Eventually, yes. I suspect the U.S. will want to erase most vestiges of him in many places. As I’ve said before, when he finally departs the earth, his grave will be a place of pilgrimage for folks who feel strongly about him one way or another. It’d probably be smart to put it somewhere secret.

The GOP in the House and the Senate could end this. But they won’t. The VP and the Cabinet could end this. But they won’t either. You can let loose with “Fuck the USA” all you like, and I get it, but that’s a pretty broad brush when a very small number of elected and appointed individuals...

A few things just from my neck of the woods . . . https://www.sfgate.com/bayarea/article/tuberculosis-san-francisco-school-21324492.php https://www.sfgate.com/bayarea/article/unvaccinated-child-bay-area-measles-21311776.php

I think it’s because we were shit in the 2H leading up to that goal, and shit the rest of the 2H after it.

The number of times we failed to beat a man one-on-one today was shocking.

Next weekend Slot should just park 10 behind the ball in the first half and then move all ten into our penalty area in the second. It’ll be 0-0 at half time but the scousers will win 8-0.

I find it telling that the vast majority of the comments here are about that wank performance and NOT the abject VAR decision or lack thereof. No blue specs on. We threw that away full stop.

Beginning to wonder if some of the players think chasing victories and trophies is just too much bother.
