No joe

Okay, one more thing and I’ll shut up about Biden (for a while). but I saw a lot of people defending Joe Biden around social media today, and not one actually gave a reason why his policy history or how he handled the Anita Hall hearings shouldn’t be held against him except “But…but…UNITY!!11!! AND TRUMP!!!” Like, geesh, I don’t want to break from my usual record of self-depreciation but at least. if you press me, I can tell you what I don’t like about Bernie (his waffling on gun control and his not coming out against the foreign policy orthodoxy as strongly I would like) and Warren (her not being as much of an extreme reformer as I would prefer) and explain briefly why I support them anyway (we desperately need New Deal Democrats in power to break the stranglehold Third Way politics has on the Democratic Party at least on a discursive level). If a sizable number of people who consider themselves politically savvy really are stuck on this personality-centered “He’s my guy and the tribe likes him and he says he can beat the enemy so I like him too and if you don’t like him for any reason you’re bad” level of understanding politics, then we really are doomed.

Shazam!

Shazam was fun. First DC movie that I have seen in a long time “done right” (which is very subjective.) I have minor quibbles, but feel it is aok overall. Might be a little too kiddy for some adults, a little too adult for some kids. Just right for me.

Biggest bonus, I was not spoiled for anything cool. Nice cameos, and lots to keep comics fans happy without being too “comic book guy” for those that aren’t all up in the big red cheese’s business.

A sampling of wall art from when I was a kid.

Pre-elementary school. First memories – felt peanuts banners

Early teen years – movie posters, Atari, pinup and bamboo scrolls. I had the sicilian, because it reminded me of Highlander. Cathy Lee Crosby was given to me be a neighbor kid named Whitney, nicknamed Dimwitney by my dad. Most movie posters came from the local video store. I also had evil dead, blues brothers, and a few others in rotation as the others shredded and fell down. All were held up with thumbtacks.
