You know that guy in the McDonald’s bathroom who gives your penis a little shake after you pee? It turns out he doesn’t actually work there

Found a Tim Hortons that still has white people working there and it had the slowest service I’ve ever experienced #REPLACETHEMSOONER
A lot of great artists, like kanye or morrissey and such, dont really surprise me when they go full chud. Like their music is still good, but the reasons why they might end up that way were somewhat apparent from the start. You know who confuses the fuck out of me? Billy corgan

Even in a top 200 ROCK songs list we can’t escape the unrelenting plague of poptomism which is lobby funded by Taylor Swift’s dark money.

People will act like “never hearing of something” is a critique of that thing being bad when it’s usually just a sign that person hasn’t been paying close attention and isn’t as knowledgeable as they thought they were.
OK, I'll bite. If John Cassavetes is so insanely influential and brilliant, why have I not heard about him until recently?
I've been on a side-quest with classic and esoteric movies, mostly through the Criterion collection. I've watched dozens of Criterion closet picks from filmmakers and actors I admire.
They pick Cassavetes films ALL THE TIME. Probably more than any other director except Scorsese. I haven't seen a single Cassavetes film. I don't think I've ever heard anyone talk about a Cassavetes film outside of those videos.
I'm not a slouch on film, I've got a pretty wide spread on what I've seen & what I appreciate. How has Cassavetes slipped through that net so completely for so long?
