You never see bad guys in movies who are Arab terrorists. It’s always Germans or French…

Or conservative Christian rednecks. They’re apparently what’s wrong with everything in the world now, including global warming. What about the other ice age we went through? There were no Christian Republicans back then. What caused that meltdown?

The other problem with that is, when you get rid of these Christian rednecks, you create a vacuum and it gets filled with people way worse. It gets filled with Islam. You end up replacing evangelism with sharia law.

Politicians behave better when they know people are watching. We behave better when we believe Jesus is watching us.

These atheists tell us we don’t need religion, yet everyone seems to be creating flimsy substitutes to replace it. Rehab is just Lent. Meditation is just Latin Mass. Seeing a therapist is just talking to your priest.

And the thing about the Bible is it’s written down. A therapist can change his diagnosis just like that and there’s no way of calling him out on it.

flappy bird – in all honesty, and though one wouldn't wish to cast aspersions, it probably ought to be noted that you have overlooked several outlandish claims in that extract alone

seems like a great publication

lol i read that whole interview thinking it was the tavi girl's website and was like this is a very strange choice for this venue

I think flappy was referring specifically to hughes' experience the day of the attack, not his/taki's horrifying (outlandish even) opinions about the attack

wow fuck this guy.

World War III imminent?

Jesse Hughes: I saw fear fall like a blanket on the whole crowd and they fell like wheat in the wind—the way you would before a god. I was totally alert from the very beginning. The first thing I needed to do was find my girl. Fear took a backseat and “where’s my girl?” took over.

so did he ever find his daughter? hope she's ok.

yes, sorry for not being clear! i was referring to the backdoor being propped open, the security acting suspicious, letting people in. i also have empathy for him, can't imagine what he's going through, and beyond the details of what happened and what he saw happen at the bataclan, it's pretty, well, outlandish...

xp i think he's referring to his girlfriend, afaik she's ok

Make it stop.

was jesse always this nuts or is this the PTSD talking?

oh sorry, already discussed.

A letter to Jesse Hughes from a fellow Bataclan survivor

gavin mcinnes is one of the most vile human beings alive right now.

Ismael El Iraki FTW

Just don't read the comments under the reprinting of the letter in the Independent.

would throw in pool

whyyyyy is this guy still a thing

he is the worst

It is absolutely insane to me that this band had the type of goodwill that had them on stage with U2 and had My Morning Jacket and Kings of Leon covering their songs and dude just absolutely pissed it away

I have moved on from trying to apologize for this dude and maybe give him a little time after his traumatic experience. I can't listen to EODM at all any more. They were lighthearted and fun-ish, but certainly not indispensable. This time around I'm kinda pissed at Dave Catching, who otherwise seems like a levelheaded, chill, lefty kinda dude, for not speaking out when Jesse opens his fool yap.

@jesseEODM. When I think of the good times we've had in the past it fucks my heart to see how far off the rails you've gone. Come back bro

Cheers, Mark. It would be nice if Dave Catching had a word or three with Jesse. I don't know either of them personally but as far as I can tell, Dave doesn't seem like the type who would agree with Jesse here and is in a good place to tell him as well. cc: @ranchodelaluna

Im out of the loop. What happened?

xp: yeah, the studio is Dave's account.

Boy looking up at Mark Lanegan's tweet there feels a bit chilling. The more so because according to this Jesse wouldn't have known about his passing because...

“The love of my life is going to die.” Eagles of Death Metal's Tuesday Cross has been in a coma for more than six weeks, and her frontman fiancé Jesse Hughes is alleging he's been blocked from seeing or communicating with her. https://t.co/qMbJCVU9OX

Actually change that, read it totally wrong -- I thought HE was in the coma.

Also, since I was wondering:

Although the hospital’s response does not indicate this, Hughes says Cross also tested positive for COVID, and he was told that hospital visits from family and friends were not permitted because of the risk of spreading the virus.

On the afternoon of Jan. 23, Hughes says he and Cross had cuddled on the couch in their bungalow-style home in LA’s Atwater Village as she puffed a few times on the inhaler she used to treat her asthma. She was exhausted from graffiti tagging the past few nights, and the spray-paint vapor had given her a slight cough.

Cross was “in full cardiac arrest” when ER doctors got to her and that Hughes “reported the patient had recently been smoking crack or meth.” Hughes claims that he didn’t know if she was on drugs but wanted to be safe.

in June 2021, Cross signed a document giving him power of attorney over her health care after a similar incident landed her in Glendale Memorial.

Add all that to COVID diagnosis (and assuming that she is/was as anti-vax as Jessie), this seems like a tragic, but probably avoidable outcome. I just feel bad for any of her friends and loved ones who are trying to navigate this while simultaneously having to deal with Jesse Hughes - The Human Drama Bomb.
