This is great.
This is great, but oh god the shrieking Lady Gaga isn’t.
This is great and obvious and clunky and way too on-the-nose and probably could have stood a few more drafts and I am so glad someone did it and put it out there today, because someone needs to see it just as it is.
Todd Glass’ interview on WTF today was sometimes beautiful and sometimes infuriating and I could not be more grateful that he did it 6 months before he was ready to do it, because someone needs to hear it just as it is.
I’m sure you have notes about how both of these things could have been better. You’re probably right. Do me a favor: write those notes down on a sheet of paper, fold that piece of paper nice and small, shove it up your ass, and pass this video or Todd Glass’ episode of WTF on, because someone in your life needs to see these imperfect, important things. I promise you.
This made me cry in predictable ways, and so did the Todd Glass interview, in predictable ways. The best part is the end of this video, with a mashup quote: “Every American has the right to be on the right side of history.” Or as Todd Glass put it (I’m paraphrasing here), “If you think God wants you to make a child feel like shit, you’d better be really fucking sure that you’ll be proud you acted that way in twenty years.”
