For years when my political friend group would talk about Cuomo running for President (before the allegations) I would always say it'd end in disaster for this reason: New York voters ignored over a decade of constant scandals and Cuomo being one degree away from massive corruption investigations and just slipping by, but national voters wouldn't. Now we'll see if I was wrong about New York voters while in the national spotlight.

I cannot express how terrible a choice Sorkin is for this project, his work as a director is mostly mediocre at best. Dude somewhat managed to sanitize any real leftism from his movie about the Chicago 7 and now wants to give a definitive recounting of the way they are driving the world into the ground? His script for the originally mostly only worked because he had such a great director guiding it.

I had exactly the same thought, please for the love of God do not recruit Lamb to run against Fetterman. I never really trusted Fetterman or any "cult of personality" type politician, but the only reason I wanted him to become a Senator was to keep Lamb from reviving the Blue Dog wing of the Senate.

Zachary Levi has to be one of the absolute least likable celebrities out there. From his vocal anti-vax views to his weird Christian libertarianism to his support of RFK Jr, every time he lets more about himself and his views be known the less I ever want to see him in another project again let alone hear another interview.

This is a classic, love Mark Hollis so much but particularly partial to the jazzy, experimental fragile proto-post-rock soundscapes that came on the Talk Talk or solo albums that followed.

This album meant so much to me when it came down and I still have most of the lyrics to most of the songs memorized to day, but quite frankly I am not at all a "separate the art from the artist" person, I believe the artist fundamentally imprints themselves in all of their art and however minor I'm never going to do something to financially support somebody with Kanye's views and statements, so I just simply do not listen to any Kanye anymore and if I did it would be via torrent.

I wish more people realized just how awesome Rilo Kiley were, I revisit their sadly sparse discography all the frickin time and it is always rewarding even if Jenny would only grow and mature as a songwriter from there.

This is a hard question for somebody like me, obsessed with slashers, to answer but ultimately I think I have to give the nod to Halloween for being the best directed slasher I believe I've ever seen with the best atmosphere and mood to separate itself from the more schlocky imitators.

It is hard to say what I'd do in this situation. Ganassi vs. RLL seems like a no-brainer on paper and Pratt-Miller are strong contenders with a great deal of pedigree, but RLL scoring a huge pickup in former Indycar chief Jay Frye to oversee their operations going forward I think could make staying with RLL a viable idea going forward as I think most would consider it unlikely the team doesn't turn around to some degree under him and his endless contacts in racing.
