Welcome to Litsy!

Another day, another POS sounding off about things they don't understand. I don't care about HP; therefore, don't care about JK. I don't agree with her AT ALL about trans issues, though there could be room for empathy if she made any attempt to grow from the reaction. But this just proves she is fine being uninformed and delights in causing controversy. She has no skin in this game. She is just a miserable person and she can f*ck all the way off.

Sad that I wasn't able to finish this book. It was all pictures of his writings/documents and a few photographs. What I did read was boring to me and didn't want to continue.

Enjoy!

One of Jimmy's first movies was the remake of Seventh Heaven in 1937. I never watched the original. As much as I love Wizard of Oz, my favorites are Katherine Hepburn's Jo in Little Women, Philadelphia Story (Jimmy won Oscar), and Mr. Smith Goes to Washington ❤️❤️❤️. I should've done better, but I only cared for Stewart, Hepburn, or Grant.

So much music news lately: the Grammys, Fire Aid concert, Super Bowl halftime. But I'm going old-school. On Alan Alda's podcast, Clear and Vivid, he recently interviewed neuroscientist and musician Daniel Levitin, and they spoke about using music to treat Parkinson's disease, which Alan suffers from. Scientist have been using songs with strong beats, like I've Got Rhythm, to help patients relearn how to walk!

Randomly reading this biography from 2000 with one of my favourite bookmarks and then i realised … OH! Well played bookmark gods.

I‘m interested in this period in Hollywood and the studio machinations behind the scenes - and man, Judy Garland was treated so badly. Her mother had her on amphetamines at the age of 10 😱😱 So I really enjoyed this - but it does have its flaws. ⬇️

“Parker is a classic case of a misunderstood woman. She was a problem, and a problem that simply didn‘t fit in one way or another. All too often, women who refuse to conform must live and die with this temporal displacement. At the start of her career, Parker‘s stringing barbs and biting bons mots were seen as shockingly modern- indeed, ahead of their time-and most “unladylike.” By the end of her life, Parker was regarded as a relic of a time -

“By all accounts, Dorothy Parker‘s two favorite words were fuck and shit. Coming from such a small, genteel, quietly spoken woman, these words often made people do a double take and wonder if they had misheard”.

I'm not really interested in Hollywood behind-the-scenes stuff but Judy Garland was in two of my favorite movies so I picked it up. It was disgusting how the movie industry treated people. I suppose it was us fans that drove it though. There's money to be made by exhibiting Judy Garland; mental health be damned. Judy grew up on stage, never had a normal life, and was never quite sane. I think she just wanted to go home but that balloon had sailed.

After I saw what happened to Fable users I was really hoping that Litsy's AI would have a go at me.

The drama, the talent, and the music still have an impact today. Rumors wasn't just an album, it was a once in a generation piece of art. Christine McVie and Fleetwood Mac created music inspired by their joys and pain, creating a pantheon of hits over the decades. Very few groups manage this kind of longevity, and Christine was the one who kept it all together. Can you imagine a world without songs like "Don't Stop" or "You Make Loving Fun"?
