Yes, America... these are the little twerps we've entrusted our economy to. At least Patrick Bateman could put on a semblance of dignity. (2)

Am I being spied on through my laptop camera? Is there some algorithm out there noting changes in facial hair? I'm gonna put tape over my laptop camera, just in case. But I'm telling you, the bombardment of ads for beard care products is absurd.

And motherfucker... my social media feed, esp YouTube, is bombarding me with ads for "MANLY BEARD CARE PRODUCTS!!" I have NOT posted any selfies except this one in my fuzzier state. Which, as you can see, isn't a "Grizzly Adams/ZZ Top" state of fuzziness.

Now typically, I wear my beard buzzed really close and short. Basically, it's decorative stubble. Look at my other selfies for reference. Out of laziness, I've been laying off the beard buzzing, so I'm at the fuzzier length you see pictured, here.

But then again in 1982, I never thought Wendy Carlos would score a Disney movie, so there's that!

Hey! I am now professional film critic, and I was there back in 1982. I most assuredly thought at the time that it was one of the greatest horror movies ever made. But John Carpenter is right. 1982 is when the cultural transformation of Reaganism took hold. Everyone wanted cuddly ET kitsch.

And what killed his beloved mentor, Roy Cohn? Everything is personal for Trump. Maybe if Cohn died of AIDS, he thinks others should, too?
