"content": "\u003cp>San Francisco artist \u003ca href=\"http://www.ferrisplock.com/\">Ferris Plock\u003c/a> is that amorphous age between grown-up kid and adolescent adult. The longtime staple of the Bay Area’s skate art scene paints and illustrates tableaux that are both goofy and incredibly detailed, often involving intricate patterns, gold or silver leafing, and bright pops of color. A conglomeration of pop culture references inhabit his worlds -- from skateboarding to drive-in snack bar promos and Japanese Ukiyo-e woodblocks -- but as far as themes go, food is a biggie.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In his anthropomorphic fantasies come to life, ice cream cones and pretzels pose as skater dudes, while pizza and tacos grow amphibian extremities. The guy who turned his former ‘hood, the Western Addition, into the “Spaghetti Western Addition” for an illustrated series of meatball-and-cowboy shootouts often populates his alternate realities with cheap eats.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-25594\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/pop/wp-content/uploads/sites/12/2016/05/Food_Faces_Toby-Peagobby_DayDreamersLimited_WEB.jpg\" alt=\"Food_Faces_Toby-Peagobby_DayDreamersLimited_WEB\" width=\"640\" height=\"640\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/12/2016/05/Food_Faces_Toby-Peagobby_DayDreamersLimited_WEB.jpg 640w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/12/2016/05/Food_Faces_Toby-Peagobby_DayDreamersLimited_WEB-400x400.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/12/2016/05/Food_Faces_Toby-Peagobby_DayDreamersLimited_WEB-32x32.jpg 32w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/12/2016/05/Food_Faces_Toby-Peagobby_DayDreamersLimited_WEB-50x50.jpg 50w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/12/2016/05/Food_Faces_Toby-Peagobby_DayDreamersLimited_WEB-64x64.jpg 64w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/12/2016/05/Food_Faces_Toby-Peagobby_DayDreamersLimited_WEB-96x96.jpg 96w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/12/2016/05/Food_Faces_Toby-Peagobby_DayDreamersLimited_WEB-128x128.jpg 128w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/12/2016/05/Food_Faces_Toby-Peagobby_DayDreamersLimited_WEB-150x150.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\">\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So it makes perfect sense that he’d one day stumble into a lowbrow version of food styling — shaping bits of breakfast, lunch, and dinner into funny monster faces that his two sons, Brixton (6), and Angus (3), would eat, and that his wife, the equally talented artist \u003ca href=\"http://www.kellytunstall.com/\">Kelly Tunstall\u003c/a>, would embrace as well. After four years of placing sushi, cheese puffs, sausages, strips of chicken, apple slices, Japanese rice crackers, and pretzel buns just so on his family’s plates, and then feeding images of these tasty visages to his 15,000 followers on Instagram with the #foodfaces hashtag, Plock and Tunstall are releasing an unconventionally awesome art book and kid’s cookbook combo called \u003cem>Food Faces.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Plock and Tunstall have long been collaborators, and both are set to be artists-in-residence at the de Young next year. Tunstall’s starry-eyed mermaids and stylish creature charmers exist in her paintings and 3-D printed sculptures, her murals for restaurants A16 (where Plock designed the pizza boxes) and Bar Crudo, and in pieces the couple creates together as \u003ca href=\"http://kefeinc.com/\">KeFe, Inc.\u003c/a> But this book brings in a third party, photographer Howard Cao of \u003ca href=\"http://form-fiction.com/\">Form & Fiction\u003c/a>, under their larger Day Dreamers Limited umbrella.

The longtime staple of the Bay Area’s skate art scene paints and illustrates tableaux that are both goofy and incredibly detailed, often involving intricate patterns, gold or silver leafing, and bright pops of color. A conglomeration of pop culture references inhabit his worlds -- from skateboarding to drive-in snack bar promos and Japanese Ukiyo-e woodblocks -- but as far as themes go, food is a biggie.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In his anthropomorphic fantasies come to life, ice cream cones and pretzels pose as skater dudes, while pizza and tacos grow amphibian extremities. The guy who turned his former ‘hood, the Western Addition, into the “Spaghetti Western Addition” for an illustrated series of meatball-and-cowboy shootouts often populates his alternate realities with cheap eats.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-25594\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/pop/wp-content/uploads/sites/12/2016/05/Food_Faces_Toby-Peagobby_DayDreamersLimited_WEB.jpg\" alt=\"Food_Faces_Toby-Peagobby_DayDreamersLimited_WEB\" width=\"640\" height=\"640\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/12/2016/05/Food_Faces_Toby-Peagobby_DayDreamersLimited_WEB.jpg 640w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/12/2016/05/Food_Faces_Toby-Peagobby_DayDreamersLimited_WEB-400x400.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/12/2016/05/Food_Faces_Toby-Peagobby_DayDreamersLimited_WEB-32x32.jpg 32w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/12/2016/05/Food_Faces_Toby-Peagobby_DayDreamersLimited_WEB-50x50.jpg 50w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/12/2016/05/Food_Faces_Toby-Peagobby_DayDreamersLimited_WEB-64x64.jpg 64w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/12/2016/05/Food_Faces_Toby-Peagobby_DayDreamersLimited_WEB-96x96.jpg 96w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/12/2016/05/Food_Faces_Toby-Peagobby_DayDreamersLimited_WEB-128x128.jpg 128w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/12/2016/05/Food_Faces_Toby-Peagobby_DayDreamersLimited_WEB-150x150.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\">\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So it makes perfect sense that he’d one day stumble into a lowbrow version of food styling — shaping bits of breakfast, lunch, and dinner into funny monster faces that his two sons, Brixton (6), and Angus (3), would eat, and that his wife, the equally talented artist \u003ca href=\"http://www.kellytunstall.com/\">Kelly Tunstall\u003c/a>, would embrace as well. After four years of placing sushi, cheese puffs, sausages, strips of chicken, apple slices, Japanese rice crackers, and pretzel buns just so on his family’s plates, and then feeding images of these tasty visages to his 15,000 followers on Instagram with the #foodfaces hashtag, Plock and Tunstall are releasing an unconventionally awesome art book and kid’s cookbook combo called \u003cem>Food Faces.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Plock and Tunstall have long been collaborators, and both are set to be artists-in-residence at the de Young next year. Tunstall’s starry-eyed mermaids and stylish creature charmers exist in her paintings and 3-D printed sculptures, her murals for restaurants A16 (where Plock designed the pizza boxes) and Bar Crudo, and in pieces the couple creates together as \u003ca href=\"http://kefeinc.com/\">KeFe, Inc.\u003c/a> But this book brings in a third party, photographer Howard Cao of \u003ca href=\"http://form-fiction.com/\">Form & Fiction\u003c/a>, under their larger Day Dreamers Limited umbrella. And as a trio, they’ve elevated Plock’s inspiring 30-minute parenting hacks to get his kids to finish meals into expressive beasts with names as colorful as the plating.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

I'm a particularly big fan of field study work that involves viewing the reactions of 20- and 30-somethings when they're asked to dance en masse to the Isley Brothers' \"Shout\" in a public place, half of them in terribly uncomfortable shoes, after one to three glasses of champagne.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If you're going to undertake such intense anthropological coursework, however, any scientist will tell you that having some background knowledge of your subjects -- their likes, dislikes, habits and vocabulary -- is a bare minimum. Thus, without further ado, I hereby present to you the most important facts about Millennials that the news media presented us with in the month of May. As always, I'd love to hear how they guide you in your own research.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>In May 2016, we learned that Millennials are...\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Still, overwhelmingly, \u003ca href=\"https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/the-fix/wp/2016/05/25/why-millennials-are-more-likely-to-live-with-their-parents-than-any-generation-since-world-war-ii/\" target=\"_blank\">living in our parents' basements\u003c/a>. \u003c/strong>Especially men. Why? Well, for one, people are getting married later in life. And then there's this illuminating tidbit: \"The overall employment rate -- the share of people with jobs -- has fallen and, again, that's particularly true of young men. And this explains why living at home is even more common among young men who are unemployed.\" Shocking.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

While her humor is much milder than the Schumers and Dunhams of this modern era, Austen was witty before women showing off their funny bone was socially acceptable. Her undeniable mark on popular culture has inspired a slew of adaptations, from everyone’s favorite '90s teen flick, \u003cem>Clueless, \u003c/em>to the deplorably tasteless \u003cem>Pride and Prejudice and Zombies\u003c/em>. With the offensiveness of the latter still lingering on our palettes, the latest Austen film adaptation, \u003cem>Love and Friendship\u003c/em>, could not have arrived at a better time.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Based on one of Austen’s lesser-known works, the early epistolary novella, \u003cem>Lady Susan,\u003c/em> tells the tale of an unscrupulous, newly widowed woman and her quest to marry off her lackluster daughter to a wealthy man and to bag an even richer husband for herself. Written as a series of letters, some have argued that this is perhaps Austen’s wittiest work, which would explain why audiences and critics have been so pleased with the film adaptation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Directed by Whit Stillman, \u003cem>Love and Friendship\u003c/em> finds Kate Beckinsale portraying the beguiling Lady Susan Vernon with her confidante, Alicia Johnson, played by Chloë Sevigny (for those who may have forgotten, Chloë and Kate were also paired up in Stillman’s 1998 cult classic \u003cem>The Last Days of Disco\u003c/em>). Without delving too much into the plot, Beckinsale delivers an exquisite performance that captures the charmingly appalling nature of Lady Susan, serving up memorable line after memorable line – my personal favorite being Susan’s description of Alicia’s husband as “too old to be governed and too young to die.” It is this wit that takes center stage in the film and will leave theater-goers with an appreciation of the subtlety of Austen’s humor that is rarely found in modern times.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8MaSK3POHI0\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For Austen aficionados, the film is obviously a must see and will probably spit them out of the theater wishing they could find the essence of Austen in the real world. To figure out how to do that best, we caught up with the Coordinator of the Jane Austen Society of North America’s Northern California Region, Danine Cozzens, for her insights into the latest film and beyond.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>KQED Pop: \u003cem>What characteristics of Jane Austen's writing do you think give it such timeless appeal for the young and old alike? \u003c/em>\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Danine Cozzens:\u003c/strong> Jane Austen saw into the truth of the human heart. What truly drives character, and causes us to make decisions that may not have the best outcome? You can read the novels over and over and see this happen anew each time. The characters, their motivations, all the fine points the narrator's voice was telling you point blank were there all along, even while you were captivated by the unfolding plot line.\u003cstrong>\u003cem> \u003c/em>\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003cem>As the English countryside and its estates are several thousand miles in distance from our beloved Bay Area, which locales and establishments would you recommend for an Austen-inspired sojourn? \u003c/em>\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>We are fortunate to have some grand estates in the Bay Area that are open to the public, with the scale and elegance of a Georgian manor house. You can't stay there, but do take a day trip to \u003ca href=\"http://www.filoli.org/\">Filoli \u003c/a>(near Woodside). Although built in 1915, it was modeled on a Georgian estate in Ireland, and has the grand expanse of gardens and woodlands of an English estate. If you can get into \u003ca href=\"http://carolands.org/\">Carolands\u003c/a>, which has very limited hours, it is more French but Mr. Darcy would have felt quite at home there.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://montalvoarts.org/\">Villa Montalvo\u003c/a> (near Saratoga) is Mediterranean in style, but has an excellent Regency-style \"folly\" -- a charming wedding cake of a pavilion -- at the bottom of the great lawn. \u003ca href=\"http://www.pelicaninn.com/\">The Pelican Inn\u003c/a> in Muir Beach replicates an English coaching inn. \u003ca href=\"http://berkeleycityclub.com/\">The Berkeley City Club\u003c/a> provided a gracious site for an afternoon ball. All worth a visit.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Each fall, our friends in Oregon take over the \u003ca href=\"http://www.oregoncaveschateau.com/\">Oregon Caves Chateau\u003c/a>, a small rustic lodge from the 1930s, for a \"great house\" weekend. We dress in Regency era attire and enjoy various period activities. Another memorable experience has been sailing on the tall ships (Lady Washington and Hawaiian Chieftain) on their semi-annual tour, with everyone -- passengers and crew -- in costume. And of course teas, balls, and picnics are held in many places. \u003ca href=\"http://janeaustenevening.org/\">The Los Angeles Jane Austen Evening\u003c/a> sells out every year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003cem>Though a fantastic piece of literature, \u003c/em>Lady Susan\u003cem> is one of Jane's lesser-known works. Out of her novels that haven't received a worthy film adaptation, which would you be most excited to see produced (or reproduced) and why? \u003c/em>\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Personally, I'd vote for \u003cem>Mansfield\u003c/em> \u003cem>Park\u003c/em>, because the anachronisms and plot alterations set my teeth on edge. I'm fine with adaptations like \u003cem>Clueless\u003c/em> or \u003cem>Bride and Prejudice\u003c/em>, but when you are playing it straight, please do not introduce nonsensical plot changes and impossible things which make no sense, like tiered wedding cakes in a world where baking powder had not yet been invented. Don't turn Fanny's ball into a picnic.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003cem>What scene in \u003c/em>Love and Friendship\u003cem> are you most excited for viewers to watch brought to the screen? \u003c/em>\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This may sound odd, but what blew me away was the attention to detail in all the costumes. No skimping on horses and carriages, either. The costumes on the servants -- the starched caps and fichus on the maids, the livery and wigs on the footmen -- just as much care was taken with them as with the principal actors. And the working people underfoot, laying paving stones in their filthy smocks -- it was transporting to see the entire screen come alive.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I loved the scene in which Sir Reginald De Courcy is reading a letter aloud to Lady De Courcy. Letter writing was such a key part of life for the leisured class; it was the social media of the day. I thought that scene, with the handwriting projected over the screen, conveyed how intense letters were at the time. Quite fitting, since Lady Susan was constructed as a series of letters.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp> \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Love and Friendship\u003cem> is out now in select theaters.

Written as a series of letters, some have argued that this is perhaps Austen’s wittiest work, which would explain why audiences and critics have been so pleased with the film adaptation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Directed by Whit Stillman, \u003cem>Love and Friendship\u003c/em> finds Kate Beckinsale portraying the beguiling Lady Susan Vernon with her confidante, Alicia Johnson, played by Chloë Sevigny (for those who may have forgotten, Chloë and Kate were also paired up in Stillman’s 1998 cult classic \u003cem>The Last Days of Disco\u003c/em>). Without delving too much into the plot, Beckinsale delivers an exquisite performance that captures the charmingly appalling nature of Lady Susan, serving up memorable line after memorable line – my personal favorite being Susan’s description of Alicia’s husband as “too old to be governed and too young to die.” It is this wit that takes center stage in the film and will leave theater-goers with an appreciation of the subtlety of Austen’s humor that is rarely found in modern times.\u003c/p>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutube'>\n \u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutubeInside'>\n \u003ciframe\n loading='lazy'\n class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__youtubePlayer'\n type='text/html'\n src='//www.youtube.com/embed/8MaSK3POHI0'\n title='//www.youtube.com/embed/8MaSK3POHI0'\n allowfullscreen='true'\n style='border:0;'>\u003c/iframe>\n \u003c/span>\n \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cp>For Austen aficionados, the film is obviously a must see and will probably spit them out of the theater wishing they could find the essence of Austen in the real world.

What truly drives character, and causes us to make decisions that may not have the best outcome? You can read the novels over and over and see this happen anew each time. The characters, their motivations, all the fine points the narrator's voice was telling you point blank were there all along, even while you were captivated by the unfolding plot line.\u003cstrong>\u003cem> \u003c/em>\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003cem>As the English countryside and its estates are several thousand miles in distance from our beloved Bay Area, which locales and establishments would you recommend for an Austen-inspired sojourn? \u003c/em>\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>We are fortunate to have some grand estates in the Bay Area that are open to the public, with the scale and elegance of a Georgian manor house. You can't stay there, but do take a day trip to \u003ca href=\"http://www.filoli.org/\">Filoli \u003c/a>(near Woodside). Although built in 1915, it was modeled on a Georgian estate in Ireland, and has the grand expanse of gardens and woodlands of an English estate. If you can get into \u003ca href=\"http://carolands.org/\">Carolands\u003c/a>, which has very limited hours, it is more French but Mr. Darcy would have felt quite at home there.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://montalvoarts.org/\">Villa Montalvo\u003c/a> (near Saratoga) is Mediterranean in style, but has an excellent Regency-style \"folly\" -- a charming wedding cake of a pavilion -- at the bottom of the great lawn. \u003ca href=\"http://www.pelicaninn.com/\">The Pelican Inn\u003c/a> in Muir Beach replicates an English coaching inn. \u003ca href=\"http://berkeleycityclub.com/\">The Berkeley City Club\u003c/a> provided a gracious site for an afternoon ball. All worth a visit.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Each fall, our friends in Oregon take over the \u003ca href=\"http://www.oregoncaveschateau.com/\">Oregon Caves Chateau\u003c/a>, a small rustic lodge from the 1930s, for a \"great house\" weekend. We dress in Regency era attire and enjoy various period activities. Another memorable experience has been sailing on the tall ships (Lady Washington and Hawaiian Chieftain) on their semi-annual tour, with everyone -- passengers and crew -- in costume. And of course teas, balls, and picnics are held in many places. \u003ca href=\"http://janeaustenevening.org/\">The Los Angeles Jane Austen Evening\u003c/a> sells out every year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003cem>Though a fantastic piece of literature, \u003c/em>Lady Susan\u003cem> is one of Jane's lesser-known works. Out of her novels that haven't received a worthy film adaptation, which would you be most excited to see produced (or reproduced) and why? \u003c/em>\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Personally, I'd vote for \u003cem>Mansfield\u003c/em> \u003cem>Park\u003c/em>, because the anachronisms and plot alterations set my teeth on edge. I'm fine with adaptations like \u003cem>Clueless\u003c/em> or \u003cem>Bride and Prejudice\u003c/em>, but when you are playing it straight, please do not introduce nonsensical plot changes and impossible things which make no sense, like tiered wedding cakes in a world where baking powder had not yet been invented. Don't turn Fanny's ball into a picnic.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003cem>What scene in \u003c/em>Love and Friendship\u003cem> are you most excited for viewers to watch brought to the screen? \u003c/em>\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This may sound odd, but what blew me away was the attention to detail in all the costumes. No skimping on horses and carriages, either. The costumes on the servants -- the starched caps and fichus on the maids, the livery and wigs on the footmen -- just as much care was taken with them as with the principal actors. And the working people underfoot, laying paving stones in their filthy smocks -- it was transporting to see the entire screen come alive.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I loved the scene in which Sir Reginald De Courcy is reading a letter aloud to Lady De Courcy. Letter writing was such a key part of life for the leisured class; it was the social media of the day. I thought that scene, with the handwriting projected over the screen, conveyed how intense letters were at the time. Quite fitting, since Lady Susan was constructed as a series of letters.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp> \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

"content": "\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Let’s get one thing straight from the get-go -- Pirates of the Caribbean at Disneyland is a fantastic amusement park ride. After schlepping around Disneyland with the sun beating down on you, feet blistered and sore, senses dulled from the saccharine sweetness of Disney magic, there’s nothing like a 15-minute sit in a bobbing boat, surrounded by cool air and scenes of pirate-y mischief. Fires burn, good men are tortured, and drunkards nap with adorable piggies. Hey, they’re pirates and no one is asking them to be saints. \u003c/span>\u003ci>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Pirates gonna pirate.\u003c/span>\u003c/i>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> But part of this ride is out-of-order: the bride-selling scenes.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">The first features a line of captive women -- some elderly, some buck-toothed, most clad in white, all weeping -- tied together at the waist with a thick rope in a sad line. A banner above them proclaims “AUCTION - Take a Wench for a Bride.” \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">The weeping women are background decoration, while the true focus of the scene lands on two other women -- first a lady in red who stands proudly at the head of the roped line some distance away from her unhappy peers. She’s heavily made up and her pert bosom threatens to spill out of her top. She lifts her skirts with one hand to show off her legs, her other hand tangled in her lovely auburn locks. Her face is peaceful, even serene. Of course, she’s not the one for sale at the moment. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">The woman on the auction block is dressed modestly and holds herself high with a sweet smile on her face. She’s also unapologetically fat -- well proportioned and lovely, but fat. She looks relaxed and proud, even as the auctioneer asks, \"What be I offered for this winsome wench? Stout hearted and corn-fed she be.\" A drunken pirate cries, \"Are ya selling her by the \u003c/span>\u003ci>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">pound\u003c/span>\u003c/i>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">?\" He’s ignored while the auctioneer instructs her, \"Shift yer cargo, dearie, show 'em your larboard side.\" She complies and turns with the same docile smile.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">(Fun fact: This “wench” has a name -- \u003c/span>\u003ca href=\"http://pirates.wikia.com/wiki/Pirates_of_the_Caribbean_(Board_game)\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Tiny\u003c/span>\u003c/a>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">.)\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">In the next scene, the results of the auction are clear. Pirates race after their “brides,” looks of terror forever on the faces of the women. Near the end of the scene, riders see Tiny again as the ultimate punchline -- \u003c/span>\u003ci>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">she’s\u003c/span>\u003c/i>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> the one in hot pursuit of a pirate. As the boat passes by, riders can hear her giggling.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Though she is pretty, clean and pleasant (the very essence of \u003c/span>\u003ca href=\"http://everydayfeminism.com/2015/03/12-good-fatty-archetypes/\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">the “good fatty” trope\u003c/span>\u003c/a>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">), it’s clear to everyone involved in this narrative that Tiny is unlovable and unwantable, even by a marauding crowd of drunken rapists. Once she’s purchased, she’s is still unwanted, yet she is so desperate for physical contact, she pursues a man who other “worthy” women run from screaming.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">At least, this was the version riders encountered until 1997, when there was a major renovation and someone thought the scene would be better if the women were holding food and racing around forever. Post renovation, Tiny chased after a pirate holding a loaf of bread and a sad-looking turkey leg. The line of thinking must have been, “She’s hungry for sex \u003c/span>\u003ci>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">and \u003c/span>\u003c/i>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">food! There, isn’t that better?”\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">They also removed a part of the scene that featured a woman hiding in a barrel. Her would-be rapist asked riders if they’ve seen a “bewitched maiden in your travels? Oh, she be a lively lassie she were. Oh, I tell you true. It's alright to hoist me colours on the likes of that shy little wench!” \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Throughout his speech, he clutched her stolen undergarments. “Favor, keep a weather eye open, mateys. \u003c/span>\u003ci>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">I be willing to share I be!\u003c/span>\u003c/i>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">\" In 1997, the woman was removed and the pirate’s focus turned to another feast of plastic food. In 2006, the barrel reopened but was filled with a greasy-looking Johnny Depp. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">With the Johnny Depp update, Disney makes another attempt to modify this chasing scene by putting jewels into the hands of the women. Now Tiny chases a pirate who clutches a cheap-looking red-velvet jewelry box with a few strands of pearls pouring out. She still giggles as she runs.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">There are Disney fans who bristle at the mere idea of changing a classic ride. “The fat bride is canon!” or “This is just another example of PC culture run amok!” But the ride \u003c/span>\u003ci>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">has \u003c/span>\u003c/i>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">changed dramatically with the decades. Johnny Depp leering from a barrel is not canon. A musty-smelling fog screen plastered with Bill Nighy’s octopus face is \u003c/span>\u003ci>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">not canon\u003c/span>\u003c/i>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">. And Disney knows these scenes with the brides are troubling. Why else would they continue to tweak them?\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Luckily, there’s a solution to this mess.

Each individual piece of ridiculous rubble comes with its own \u003cdel>cheap\u003c/del> plexiglass case (“Customers will assemble the bricks into the plexiglass display case upon arrival”), along with a \u003cdel>piece of paper\u003c/del> Certificate of Authenticity, and a cassette copy of \u003cem>The Marshall Mathers LP\u003c/em>. (Side note: Cassettes are only cool right now because everyone’s forgotten how quickly they get worn out and how long it takes to wind one back into place using only a pencil and sheer power of will.) Oh, and if throwing $313 at discarded pieces of clay “in varying conditions” isn’t quite enough, you can also throw an extra $37 into the pot and get a T-shirt too!\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Or, at least, you could. All 700 bricks have now sold out.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>We’ll repeat that: Eminem just sold individual bricks for a grand total of $219,100. Which is considerably more than the intact home on Dresden Street was worth before it burned down three years ago. \u003ca href=\"http://www.trulia.com/homes/Michigan/Detroit/sold/162440-19946-Dresden-St-Detroit-MI-48205\">Zillow reports\u003c/a> that similar homes in the area sell for between $30,000 and $40,000.

So, okay, here it comes. According to Eminem’s website: \"In our continued mission to rebuild the city of Detroit, a portion of proceeds from this sale will be donated to The Marshall Mathers Foundation.” The key word in this sentence that you’re supposed to pay attention to is \"donated,\" but arguably, the most important one is “portion.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When it comes to vague terms that can be applied to monetary funds, “portion” is about as opaque as it gets.

When stars are raising considerable amounts of cash for charity, they (or at least their publicists) usually want us to know the depths of their generosity.

Hell, I’d still cheer him on if it was a 25% donation. Maybe even a 15% donation.

If they’re smart and hanging onto sufficient star power, they can just move to Vegas for a residency and keep the cash rolling in. (Well done, Britney!) If they were ever part of a well-respected band, they can get back together for a reunion tour and the world will applaud them for it. (Thank you, Danzig, for the upcoming Misfits reunion you are bestowing on us!) But for those artists in the middle who never quit, never came from a group and were never family-friendly enough to sell out to a casino, thinking about the future can be an awkward predicament.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sometimes, panic just sets in one day - even in the midst of a still-solid career - and what follows is the kind of desperate cashing in that Eminem indulged in this week.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That's right!

Another, perhaps less weighty example: Juggalos. Does anyone know if ICP's music is any good? I honestly can't recall a time I've purposefully listened to it. I'm pretty sure I don't like it, but at this point that's hard to separate from the approximately 500,000 terrible associations I already have with \u003ca href=\"https://www.theguardian.com/music/musicblog/2010/aug/18/insane-clown-posse\" target=\"_blank\">their fanbase\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Well, friends, this is an exciting day: A bar has been lowered; a new archetype cemented.

Athena reborn.

Probably, she will be betrothed to Trump's son, and they will be crowned American royalty.\"\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>Cool theory, huh? In case you were unsure about this Anglin guy, here is another fun quote to help, uh, sculpt your feelings about him:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>Anglin believes Swift Nazi memes may have existed since her \"Teardrops on My Guitar\" days. \"Some believe it was meme magic that made her famous—though no one can be certain,\" he says. \"We are certain that as soon as Nazis saw her, they were magnetically drawn to her sculpted Aryan form and angelic demeanor.\"\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>Meanwhile, more than 19,000 people are members of a Facebook group called \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/PraiseTheEmpress/timeline\" target=\"_blank\">Taylor Swift for Fascist Europe,\u003c/a> to which they post memes pairing images of Swift and quotes about racial hygiene and the like.

Another, perhaps less weighty example: Juggalos. Does anyone know if ICP's music is any good? I honestly can't recall a time I've purposefully listened to it. I'm pretty sure I don't like it, but at this point that's hard to separate from the approximately 500,000 terrible associations I already have with \u003ca href=\"https://www.theguardian.com/music/musicblog/2010/aug/18/insane-clown-posse\" target=\"_blank\">their fanbase\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Well, friends, this is an exciting day: A bar has been lowered; a new archetype cemented. Let May 24, 2016 go down in history as the day we learned about the \u003ca href=\"https://broadly.vice.com/en_us/article/cant-shake-it-off-how-taylor-swift-became-a-nazi-idol\" target=\"_blank\">neo-Nazis who are also die-hard Swifties\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Yes, \u003ca href=\"https://broadly.vice.com/en_us/article/cant-shake-it-off-how-taylor-swift-became-a-nazi-idol\" target=\"_blank\">according to Broadly\u003c/a>, \"Nazis and members of the 'alt right' — an Internet subculture that is best described as the venn diagram of hipster culture and white supremacy — have been spreading a conspiracy theory that [Taylor] Swift is a covert Nazi.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>\"Firstly, Taylor Swift is a pure Aryan goddess, like something out of classical Greek poetry. Athena reborn. That's the most important thing,\" explains Andre Anglin, the writer of the white supremacist blog \u003ca href=\"http://www.dailystormer.com/\">the Daily Stormer\u003c/a>. \"It is also an established fact that Taylor Swift is secretly a Nazi and is simply waiting for the time when Donald Trump makes it safe for her to come out and announce her Aryan agenda to the world. Probably, she will be betrothed to Trump's son, and they will be crowned American royalty.\"\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>Cool theory, huh? In case you were unsure about this Anglin guy, here is another fun quote to help, uh, sculpt your feelings about him:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>Anglin believes Swift Nazi memes may have existed since her \"Teardrops on My Guitar\" days. \"Some believe it was meme magic that made her famous—though no one can be certain,\" he says. \"We are certain that as soon as Nazis saw her, they were magnetically drawn to her sculpted Aryan form and angelic demeanor.\"\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>Meanwhile, more than 19,000 people are members of a Facebook group called \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/PraiseTheEmpress/timeline\" target=\"_blank\">Taylor Swift for Fascist Europe,\u003c/a> to which they post memes pairing images of Swift and quotes about racial hygiene and the like.

And certainly there's nothing amusing about hate groups. But -- and I'll tread lightly here -- can we admit there's something perversely hilarious in this particular association actually sticking?

But reading a police statement into the record is common practice at preliminary hearings in Pennsylvania.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The defense also argued that Constand was having a relationship with a married man and that they had engaged in “petting” during her two or three earlier visits to his home.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In his own 2005 statement to police, excerpts of which were also read in court, Cosby said Constand never said “no” as he put his hand down her pants. He told police the pills were over-the-counter Benadryl that he takes to help him sleep.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cosby attorney Brian McMonagle also questioned why Constand continued to see the comedian and even returned to the house to meet with him after the alleged assault.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In addition, the defense seized on discrepancies in the three police statements Constand gave, including her shifting memory of precisely when the encounter occurred.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cosby settled with Constand for an undisclosed sum in 2006 after testifying behind closed doors about his extramarital affairs, his use of quaaludes to seduce women and his efforts to hide payments to former lovers from his wife.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But prosecutors reopened the criminal case last year after dozens of women leveled similar allegations and after Cosby’s sealed testimony in Constand’s lawsuit was made public.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cosby’s lawyers are trying to get the case thrown out, arguing that a previous prosecutor made a binding promise a decade ago that the comic would never be charged.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He is also fighting defamation lawsuits across the country for allegedly branding his accusers liars and is trying to get his homeowner insurance to pay his legal bills.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Associated Press does not normally identify people who say they were victims of sex crimes unless they agree to be named publicly, which Constand has done.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>_____\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Copyright 2016 The Associated Press.

He is free on $1 million bail.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A trial date was not immediately set.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cosby, looking less frail than he did when he was arrested five months ago, seemed unfazed by District Judge Elizabeth McHugh’s decision.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Mr. Cosby is not guilty of any crime, and not one single fact presented by the commonwealth rebuts this truth,” his lawyers said in a statement afterward.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The hearing was not the face-to-face confrontation between accuser and accused that some had anticipated: Constand, who is now a massage therapist in Toronto, was not in the courtroom, and the judge ruled that she did not have to testify at this stage. Instead, prosecutors had portions of her 2005 police statement read into the record.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While authorities in recent months have paraphrased her account and quoted fragments, this was apparently the first time that large sections of her statement — or Cosby’s, for that matter — were made public.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Constand told police that the comedian penetrated her with his fingers and fondled her at his suburban Philadelphia mansion in 2004 after giving her what he said was herbal medication. After taking the pills, she said, “everything was blurry and dizzy.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I told him, ‘I can’t even talk, Mr. Cosby.’ I started to panic,” she told police.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She said she awoke with her bra askew and did not remember undoing it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cosby’s lawyers argued unsuccessfully that having a police officer read Constand’s statement instead of putting her on the stand would be third-hand testimony and would deprive him of his right to confront his accuser. But reading a police statement into the record is common practice at preliminary hearings in Pennsylvania.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The defense also argued that Constand was having a relationship with a married man and that they had engaged in “petting” during her two or three earlier visits to his home.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In his own 2005 statement to police, excerpts of which were also read in court, Cosby said Constand never said “no” as he put his hand down her pants. He told police the pills were over-the-counter Benadryl that he takes to help him sleep.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cosby attorney Brian McMonagle also questioned why Constand continued to see the comedian and even returned to the house to meet with him after the alleged assault.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In addition, the defense seized on discrepancies in the three police statements Constand gave, including her shifting memory of precisely when the encounter occurred.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cosby settled with Constand for an undisclosed sum in 2006 after testifying behind closed doors about his extramarital affairs, his use of quaaludes to seduce women and his efforts to hide payments to former lovers from his wife.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But prosecutors reopened the criminal case last year after dozens of women leveled similar allegations and after Cosby’s sealed testimony in Constand’s lawsuit was made public.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cosby’s lawyers are trying to get the case thrown out, arguing that a previous prosecutor made a binding promise a decade ago that the comic would never be charged.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He is also fighting defamation lawsuits across the country for allegedly branding his accusers liars and is trying to get his homeowner insurance to pay his legal bills.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Associated Press does not normally identify people who say they were victims of sex crimes unless they agree to be named publicly, which Constand has done.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>_____\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Copyright 2016 The Associated Press.
