Okay, I, uh, made it all the way thru. It's awful. Really awful. Very really awful. It's not fun, it's not thoughtful (tho it dearly wants to seem that way), it's clunky, it's just a slog. KISS may have done glam spectacle well, but being self-conscious artists has them punching well out of their class. It makes Dynasty seem like Abbey Road.

Never do sober what Heston told you to do when he was drunk.
I feel that there is a fascistic element, for example, in the Rolling Stones . . .

I've studied the phenomenon of neo-provincialism in self-isolating online communities but this place takes the fucking cake.

Hes, do you agree with my assessment of the Boulez/Chéreau Jahrhundertring as more dramatically effective than other Ring productions available on DVD?

Sometimes I get myself in such a pickle. I don't know if I'm really Marky Dread or Travis Bickle.
