DO YOU SEE WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU SHUT DOWN* THE BARS

THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS

THIS

THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS
*yeah yeah I know, not all states, capacity limits, actually in some localities, plenty of outdoor space, whatever IT'S A MOUNTAIN DEW MARGARITA THIS IS NOT THE TIME FOR QUIBBLING
Just as Prohibition left its mark on American drinking culture a century ago—memory-holing classic drinks for generations and ushering in the era of the speakeasy—so too will today's restrictions on bars. This is the New Prohibition.

All this has happened before.

And now it's happening again.

OUT OF SIGHT is a good holiday film, but also one of the sexiest, most romantic films since 1990, with only other Soderbergh and PT Anderson films coming anywhere close
Soderbergh is just a good director who does almost everything really, really well, but PT Anderson is maybe the only director in Hollywood who actually understands — or at least who accurately portrays — real love.
PT Anderson’s theory of love is that it’s incredibly specific and idiosyncratic. It’s the exact opposite of almost every romantic comedy, where love is a universal feeling. People are weird. Love is weird. Inherently. You can’t boil it down to something commercial and universal.

Josh Hawley's toxic populism and the dark future of the GOP:

reason.com/2021/03/06/jos…

My cover story for the March issue of @reason
Hawley probably won't be the next president, or even the GOP nominee. But his does tell us something about the past, present, and likely future of the Republican party.

reason.com/2021/03/06/jos…
Notably, Hawley has been at the forefront of transforming the scolding moralism that defined so much politics in the 80s and 90s - the culture war concerns about Hollywood and video games and cultural elites - into a new crusade against Big Tech.

Yup yup. RELOADED is a bit of a mess, but that pair of sequences remains incredible. FURY ROAD is the only action movie of the last 20 years to match the RELOADED freeway sequence.
I watched RELOADED three times in theaters on opening night/day and have zero regrets. I still use it as a home theater test sequence. Semi-truck slow-mo-smash-as-Neo-flies-in-for-a-Morpheus-reeling-into-the-air-rescue kills me every time, to this day.
Part of what makes the RELOADED twofer so great is how long and elaborate it is. Lots of other great sequences over the past couple decades, but most are one-idea and over in a few minutes. Nothing wrong with that.

Love Jungle Birds? Had too many Jungle Birds and want to upgrade?

Put coffee in your Jungle Bird:

Coffee is not a mainstay of the Trader Vic/Beachcomber ethos. You won't find a whole lot of coffee drinks in your Ancient Secrets of Tiki guidebook. But like Campari, it works shockingly well with rum, pineapple, sugar, lime.

This is one of the things I love about cocktails: the way that ordinary things you might not necessarily think of as "cocktail ingredients" can be incorporated into classic and contemporary structures.

Biden is giving a speech tonight.

It will probably be bland and generically uplifting.

It will announce some economic policy initiatives that reporters have already previewed because Biden has a competent comms team, and that policy people will disagree about.
I should not be so excited/relieved by this.
I am gonna have big disagreements with the Biden administration!

Republican electeds in Congress are worried that people will literally attempt to kill them if they vote to impeach Trump.
Related:
Also related: Congress was overrun and the Capitol was looted by a pro-Trump mob last week after the mob was encouraged by the president. Live pipe bombs were found at the RNC and DNC.

It is not crazy to be afraid.

It is, however, beyond appalling that it has come to this.
