Sorry about the double-tap: You gotta know when to fold 'em.

• Moar Italy— You don't gloss over cutesy feelgoods like this after you've read this. To coin a phrase, read the whole thing —

The trend continued as whole villages in Italy became Chinese villages, with the Chinese displacing the Italians who lived there, creating their own neighborhoods, and pushing out decades of Italian family owned business. They weren’t known for following the rules. It caused much local consternation; the Italians were forced to pay their taxes and follow the employment guidelines, while the Chinese seemed to have built flourishing enterprises by skirting the rules, treating their people poorly, and engaging in rich human smuggling operations, to boot. There was little accountability for the Chinese, and much for the native Italians.

If one positive thing can come of the Wuhan corona-virus, maybe it will be that the world will finally open its eyes to just how sinister China has been over the past few decades, slithering in to our households, seemingly unbeknownst to us, and co-opting even our most basic necessities. Time will tell, but one thing is clear- it appears that “Why Italy?” is more nefarious than anyone could have initially thought.

Movie review! "High-Rise" (2015, w/Hiddleston) is a richly stylized film and often engaging, but perhaps not the best for this hour if you spent much of your childhood in one. (At five years, I was just under the wire.)

It's a linear but unconventional narrative. You'll think, 'This will be tidied up in the next scene': No, it will not. Don't watch if you're squeamish.

It's terribly sad that no one picked up on the Kenny Rogers reference… …

PSYCH!!!

I'm proud of you... ALL of you.

Ooooh. Don't watch this with the kids:
