Twenty years ago Mitch McConnell called for the rich to "pay their fair share" in a campaign ad. What has really changed (not for McConnell, but for American politics?) Is this about cronyism and the rich controlling political purse strings, is it fed by voters' misguided sense of their own upward mobility (I don't want them taking my money from me, when I make my millions), or is there something else at work?

About 25 minutes into The Year That Punk Broke, Thurston Moore is getting soup and Kim says to him "what is it?" and he says something that really sounds like "Bob Mould pooped this out of his butt." "It is the elixir of skinhead violence."

Is that really what he said? Is it some sort of inside joke? It's hard to hear.
