mugwump jissom: How do you solve a problem like Diablo Cody?

http://mugwumpjissom.blogspot.com/2009/03/how-do-you-solve-problem-like-diablo.html

Wednesday, March 4, 2009. How do you solve a problem like Diablo Cody? 8217;s Troy Patterson, a near-mathematical formula. For the dialogue written by the rising ex-stripper author of Juno. Now we watch insufferable comic stars babbling in a way that can only be described with the unfortunate buzzword of postmodern social interactions: “awkward.” But a kind of meta-awkward, a spastic conversation about how awkward the conversation is. You will see this in The Office,. Saturday Night Live,. As if awkward ...

mugwump jissom: January 2008

http://mugwumpjissom.blogspot.com/2008_01_01_archive.html

Tuesday, January 22, 2008. I Never Thought You’d Be A Pervert Because Deviance Is So Passé. Eating shit, in Pasolini’s Salo, 120 Days in Sodom. Is the central consequence of totalitarianism—“we fascists are the only true anarchists.” There is no waste or excess, nothing escapes the system of control. Only the absolute authority of the law enables absolute transgression. Only a fascist with 18 sex slaves can make all his dreams come true. Posted by Asad Haider. Friday, January 11, 2008. One of my favorite...

mugwump jissom: December 2008

http://mugwumpjissom.blogspot.com/2008_12_01_archive.html

Monday, December 29, 2008. I want a new drug. We have been living in the age of serotonin. Bad moods, say the experts, result from a deficiency of serotonin, and are corrected by selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors—Prozac is the celebrity. But the discovery came from outside the pharmaceuticals, from guerilla drug warriors, in the form of MDMA—ecstasy—the substance that lets us swim in the sea of serotonin that our brains hide from us. Ideally, such a substance would be beneficial but not prone to mi...

mugwump jissom: The truth about the Mickey Mouse Club

http://mugwumpjissom.blogspot.com/2009/03/truth-about-mickey-mouse-club.html

Tuesday, March 10, 2009. The truth about the Mickey Mouse Club. Here is one of the greatest things I have ever seen: a fantastic article. Explaining the “wild” behavior of the “top pop stars” as the consequence of Satanic Ritual Abuse perpetrated by the Illuminati. Another culturally relevant exploration of the same themes can be found in the explanations available. Of what is surely the greatest Stanley Kubrick film, Eyes Wide Shut. Approaches conspiracy as a form of totality, a way of constructing a &#...

mugwump jissom: Fey is the new Palin

http://mugwumpjissom.blogspot.com/2008/12/tina-fey-is-new-sarah-palin.html

Sunday, December 28, 2008. Fey is the new Palin. Everyone was happy to see Tina Fey take the wheel at the sinking ship Saturday Night Live. With her impersonation of America's Top Politician Sarah Palin. But no one has posed the essential question: who profits? Who profits from this comedy and the unavoidable talent behind it? What we know of Tina Fey from the profiles written of her in The New Yorker. And more recently Vanity Fair. Is the bewilderment of Fey’s and our alter ego Liz Lemon in a mult...

mugwump jissom: Cowards

http://mugwumpjissom.blogspot.com/2009/03/cowards.html

Friday, March 6, 2009. So recently I went to see the new My Bloody Valentine. Because, in the tradition of any good horror movie, I expected to see lots of blood and breasts, but this time popping out of the screen and invading my personal space. I got to the theater and found out that the film was playing, but it was not. One of the most creative of these artists was William Castle, whose "Fright Break" in his 1961 film Homicidal. Was used to great effect by Gaspar Noé in his Seul Contre Tous.
