I felt the same way about this performance. It was like a very long commercial for having a baby.

Yeah, it was a bit much. She should have cut the opening vid in half or opened with everyone already in position. And her mom bragging on about her kids in the introduction. I get it, you’re really proud of your babies...except I’m not here to see you, Mama Knowles.

May the Bey-hive forgive me but for the most part this seemed more self-aggrandizing than usual. Ten minutes in (an exaggeration), I was wondering when it was going to be over.

“played, a little bafflingly, by Kate McKinnon”

Meanwhile Kellyanne is still showing her support for Ivanka’s fashion line..

OMG I was hoping in sly, understated, introvert form that someone would come along and validate my idea lol. Thank you! I’ve never actually heard it said before but I just knew that’s what he was. Have you ever met a jerk who turned out to be sensitive and empathic somehow? No, because jerks aren’t nice. Misunderstood…

As an introvert often mistaken for a stuck-up bitch, I say Firth nailed the necessary complexity of the character. He can’t just be accidentally misunderstood. There’s more to it, and we intros are always smoldering beneath the surface if I may say so.

Good on you! We need to reclaim the iconography from those for whom the costume is more important than the philosophical underpinnings.

What’s more troubling is that it takes a comedian to do what the talking heads on cable news (both the left and right) should be doing. I’m convinced this 24 hour news cycle is the downfall of real journalism.

Because, even though she was just the nerdy friend, she had some good lines. She was also ditched at a party and ended up sitting awkwardly by herself, which many of us can identify with. Add to that a pointlessly cruel and agonizing death scene while her best bud (who abandoned her) is getting laid, and THEN was…

I think he would have gone a long way to shame the apathetic “they both suck” crowd who either voted 3rd party or not at all.

There is something fucked up and mesmerizing about Melissa McCarthy’s deranged furious energy.

I just want to scream: She’s not fat!

That illustration is a disservice to probable-Mr.Darcy-inspiration John Parker, who had a little smolder in his youth.

I don’t think I would have the balls to wear it but that’s awesome you do!

That’s so awesome that you own that. I so want to see a picture but I’m sure you don’t want to dox yourself.

I’m not saying that we should have less cosplay, just observing that in fact we do have less. Purely descriptive and in no way prescriptive!

oh god. love me some good ankle

Especially stockings for men! I’m with the Prussians on this, there’s nothing better than a well-turned out ankle.

Okay but can we keep some of the Revolutionary War era cosplay? That way we can attract the Hamilton stans and also I personally like tricorn hats.
