I DONT PARTICULARLY LIKE EITHER VERSION OF THIS WEAK-ASS SELF-PITYING TRACK BUT "I WEAR THIS CROWN OF SHIT" IS ONE OF THE WORST LYRICS EVER WRITTEN SO CASH GETS THE NOD FOR CHANGING IT

"Hurt" is not an original by Johnny Cash. The song was written by Trent Reznor (Nine Inch Nails) in 1994 for the album The Downward Spiral. Rick Rubin had to insist several times on Cash recording his version, at first Johnny found the idea completely insane because the original version is industrial and noisy. At 71, already very ill, almost blind and with trembling hands, Cash completely transformed the band. The iconic video, directed by Mark Romanek, was filmed at the House of Cash (his own museum). June Carter Cash appears looking at him fondly, the video was shot in February 2003, a few months before she died (May) and Johnny himself (September). Trent Reznor was so moved that he declared, "This song is not mine anymore." It is considered one of the best covers of all time.

@mattgurney Great podcast as always. I know the critics hurt your feelings daily, but I hope you can move on from their barbs. Still curious about the source of these dudes...
English
@TheScreenTeam Holy shit dude! I hope everything goes well.

Wish me luck, folks. Going in for an Angiogram, possible stent(s) and hopefully not bypass surgery. Nervous, but hopeful that I'll get back to full strength before long. And stay away from the fast food, kids!

@jengerson @mattgurney @the_lineca Oh come on, you break out the big incentive after many of us have already donated!
English
Shortly; @mattgurney and I start our semi-annual YouTube fundrais-a-thon. Every time someone donates money, I take a drink. If I begin to openly weep about the state of the nation before we sign off, @the_lineca wins a prize!

@klara_sjo Here I was resigning myself to a dang free existence and the this surprise pops up on my timeline

@Lazin_Ryder How could it be anyone else? This time he is playing an Italian. Dude has range

@mattgurney I love my Line subscription for the video podcast alone. Articles are an added bonus. But just donated on top of it because @jengerson is back on X in fine form. She must be rewarded for her scrappy suffering.

The plans we're cooking up would be a big change in the kind of coverage we can offer. But we need help to pull it off! We don't take government subsidies or bailouts — and we've stuck to that consistently, even as other outlets caved and took the loot.
English
Do you like me? Or maybe @jengerson? Do you like the work we do at The Line? We hope you do!
We don't do much fundraising (it's cringe) but once a year, we do a big one. It's that time! We've just paid our taxes, we've got big plans for the next year, and we need your help.

@PaulSkallas I love random Lindyman observations that make you go, yeah, that's true.

@klara_sjo You get us hooked and then you cut us off? That's just evil!

Some people used to build their entire personality around quoting lines from whatever comedy was currently in theaters during conversation.
it was good

@TolkienWorldG I will always remember how that was the one time Legolas was unnerved
English
One small detail in the books that I love, which the movies missed, is how Boromir and Aragorn react when the Balrog appears in Moria.
Their first instinct is to face it.
Boromir blows the Horn of Gondor and steps forward, ready to fight. Aragorn immediately joins him, drawing his sword and standing beside him on the bridge.
The rest of the Fellowship reacts very differently. Frodo and the other hobbits shrink back in fear. Gimli, bold throughout Moria, is overcome with dread. Legolas is the one who actually recognises it and cries out that it’s a Balrog.
Boromir and Aragorn don’t yet fully understand what they’re facing. They just see an enemy approaching and move to meet it.

@Antiturbanvanco @yas_s_1 Ha, blatantly showing that they are using a VPN in Israel but connecting via Iran. Is this one of the famed 'white SIM' that I have heard of?

@JohnIbbitson I got the Breville control freak and it is by far the best thing I have ever cooked on. Induction is incredible.
English
Fair point. I just assume people have a BBQ. But some don’t. I still believe that overall induction beats natural gas. I had a gas stove for a decade. Much prefer the induction top.

@JohnIbbitson But can you blacken a red pepper, toast a marshmallow or a tortilla? I think not. Oh and when the power goes out, who is your friend? I do believe it is that blue flame.
