I am not "boycotting" anything. I choose to not patronize chefs who tacitly support deporting half the people they've ever worked with.

Teachers are having a hard enough time in this economic/political climate teaching our kids to fucking read. You are going to magically turn them into trained responders in a live fire situation in a crowded confined space? In what alternate Bret Ratner universe?

Yeah yeah yeah, I know. I’m a crank. But the word “royals” just ...will never go down easy. Only person I ever felt comfortable referring to as “Prince” came from Minneapolis

I have had firearms pointed at me in anger . Robbed at gunpoint twice, hostile militias, roadblock shakedowns. Trying to imagine my high school biology teacher going full John Wick on any of them . Can’t quite see it .

Paul Bocuse. A hero to me from my earliest days as a cook. A great, great chef who was very kind to me. To have spent time with him was an honor and a dream come true . Rest In Peace.

There’s a nauseating symmetry: both Trump and Weinstein used AMI(Enquirer) and Black Cube (Israeli private Intel) to do their dirty work

The number of tweeters suggesting I should have named any terrified, deeply damaged victims before they were ready to speak is grotesque.

British MP Michael Gove: these women have more “dignity” and courage than you will ever have, you vile, hardened fragment of shite.

Again. I want to thank Spike Lee. For making the extra-ordinary effort of walking and squeezing his way across a crowded room at Cannes to do the right thing. Above and beyond. It was remembered . It was much appreciated .

During the commercial breaks for “FRIENDS” , the entire cast would chant “Hail Satan...Hail Satan..” little known fact. I saw it the internets.
