Here’s a private open thread, restricted to registered LGF users, for a forward-thinking Friday evening.

If you have an LGF account, log in and then click the green magnifying glass in the row of icons at bottom right of this post to enter LGF Spy in Lounge Mode. That opens a window for the automatically updated “chat room” version of the thread; you can also follow the comments the usual way if you like.

This is a private thread; comments are only visible to registered, logged in users.

Your consolation prize, if you don’t have an LGF account — the new Modest Mouse music video: “The Whale Song,” from No One’s First, and You’re Next. (Here it is at the iTunes Store.)

 Frank says:

In every language, the first word after "Mama!" that every kid learns to say is "Mine!" A system that doesn't allow ownership, that doesn't allow you to say "Mine!" when you grow up, has -- to put it mildly -- a fatal design flaw. From the time Mr. Developing Nation was forced to read "The Little Red Book" in exchange for a blob of rice, till the time he figured out that waiting in line for a loaf of pumpernickel was boring as f*ck, took about three generations. ... Decades of indoctrination, manipulation, censorship and KGB excursions haven't altered this fact: People want a piece of their own little Something-or-Other, and, if they don't get it, have a tendency to initiate counterrevolution.
