Hello, I decided to start yet another blog because a) I hate posting on facebook and b) I want to be a curmudgeon without my friends having to deal with it all the time. Also c) it would be nice to talk to people who weren't on facebook, too. Here are my political and sociological thoughts on various subjects. I don't know how long I will keep going with this, but it might make me feel better to rant about things.
Observation number one: do people now follow their pets around with cameras all the time in the hopes of making a viral video? I dunno...
Observation number two: all these remakes, rehashes and period productions seem to me merely tools to ensure that we can keep straight white people at the forefront of our media without it seeming uncomfortable and raising questions. Well, you see, there *were* no out queer people or people of colour in that place at that time (there actually were), so we can justify keeping them out.
