I woke to the low buzz of my phone and a message this morning. “Heavy rain expected.” I lay there listening to the fan, feeling the kind of heat that promises a storm. Around here, you can feel it before you can see it. The mornings arrive warm and heavy instead of pleasant, and by noon, the air settles over the Bay of Banderas like a blanket. I got up and went outside to sit on my porch in Bucerías, coffee cup in hand, the ceiling fan spinning overhead. The message feels a bit more like an act of optimism…
LOSER: 60 Minutes: Scott Pelley arguably deserved to be canned for that rant against his new 60 Minutes boss Nick Bilton. It doesn’t matter if your job is on Wall Street or at a Wendy’s. Try telling your manager at a staff meeting they have “slender qualifications” and “will never be welcomed here” and the person who hired them is “murdering” the company and see how well that goes for you.

Steve Lacy will release his third album, Oh Yeah?, on July 17 via RCA Records. The singer previewed the LP with anthemic single “The Feeling,” an emotionally-wrought number about a relationship in turmoil. “The heart takes what it wants/ I’m not scared to bleed, you know our history,” he sings. “After all, there’s one thing I don’t know/ Am I your baby?

Quentin Tarantino has written a scathing assessment of modern Hollywood, calling it “a flavourless sausage factory” that no longer inspires him. The Oscar-winner, famous for films such as Pulp Fiction and Kill Bill, wrote for Sight and Sound Magazine recently to discuss his feelings about the type of films being made currently. “Since the pandemic … it seems almost impossible for a new movie to come out that I don’t pick to death,” he said. “Flaws, implausibilities, audience pandering, miscast performers or just plain stupid shit usually torpedoes every new movie coming out of the flavourless sausage factory that used…
