EVENING NIGHTCAP: JK Rowling Double Downs on Her Bigotry. RIP To Burt Young. Jussie Smollett News (yawn). Goopy Please Don't Make Promises You Can't Keep. Deaner Cheap Date: Airport Edition
My life is back to normal. My dog is happy to have her throne back (her TV chair) since my house guests have left. I always enjoy having family visit me, but it's exhausting. While the pooch is catching up on her binge watching, I toiled to find these nuggets of nonsense for your enjoyment. Happy reading!
► Burt Young, who co-starred in six of the Rocky movies (and in one of my all time favorite comedies "Back to School") has died. He was 83. Burt was nominated for an Academy Award for his role in Rocky (1976). His film work includes Chinatown, Once Upon a Time in America, Pope of Greenwich Village, and Transamerica. Burt was also an author, screenwriter, and a respected painter. His paintings were shown in galleries all over the world. Burt's wife died in 1974 - he never remarried. He's survived by a daughter.

Comment: As an actor, he had a way of quietly stealing a scene, often times without ever saying a word - which is a sign of a gifted actor that can project themselves into any role with their emotions and posture. In the movie "Back to School" he was hilarious as Rodney Dangerfield's side-kick. They don't make actors like him anymore. Burt was humble and never took for granted his good fortune and luck. Condolences to his family.
►Professional hoaxer and occasional actor Jussie Smollett will be attending an outpatient rehab facility. No word on what he's seeking treatment for. A statement released by a rep (which IMO is an AI bot) said: Read More
"Jussie has had an extremely difficult past few years. He has quietly been working very hard for some time now and we are proud of him for taking these necessary steps.”

Comment: I wonder if he's seeking treatment for lying-itis? Eh, whatever.
► JK Rowling (author of Harry Pothead Potter), doubled down on her bigotry. She tweeted that she would happily do prison time over her views on transgender women. She made the comments as a response to a story in the UK Mail Sunday which discussed the UK's Labor government in Britain could make gender identity attacks a criminal offense. Read More

Comment: JK needs to take her bigotry to the hallow halls of Satan's waiting room where she's forced to watch Priscilla Queen of the Desert on an endless loop. What a vile, narrow-minded, hateful person she turned out to be.
► "I don't want to be alone, I want to be left alone" is a saying that's associated with actress Greta Garbo, who retired from Hollywood at the age of 36. Greta became a recluse and was rarely seen in public. It seems like Goopy wants to follow in her steps. In an interview with Bustle, Goopy said that she will "literally disappear from the public eye and no one will ever see me again" when she retires. *insert eye roll*. She also mentioned she may sell her wellness brand "Goop" in a few years. Read More Of Her BS

Comment: Oh Goopy, don't make promises you can't keep. BTW, you have my blessings to disappear anytime. Now shoo, go away. Let the door hit you on the way out.

Comment: First, they were spotted holding hands at the LA County Welfare office. And now the LA Airport. At this rate, their 3rd date / wildlife cam sighting will be at the Greyhound Bus Station. Meanwhile, Tori was seen at Universal Theme park with the 5 kids for a Halloween celebration. Deaner and Tori are such a mess. If this separation isn't a reality show, it ought to be.
