If Hammer is a secret Republican, his Twitter feed is a pretty interesting piece of performance art. He posts political stuff pretty often and comes off as a garden variety Woke and Very Online White Guy. That said, his grandfather did have to be pardoned by Bush 41 for illegal campaign contributions to Republicans,…

Gossip is , he is trumpist

Well not just that. The Civil War was not a battle to free the slaves, it was a war to preserve the Union. It’s not like the South seceded because the North had imminent plans to abolition slavery in the South and leaving was the only way to keep their plantations going. They seceded because they knew abolition could…

Let’s be real, the 360k weren’t dying to free slaves either.  Just because that was the ultimate outcome of the Civil War doesn’t mean the Union army was filled with abolitionists.

Didn’t he also reference Kim’s sex tape and how hus daughter will never do such a thing?  (as if that will ever be his call)

It’s not a get-out-of-jail-free card, but it should mean that no one should expect someone in their early adulthood to have a full formed identity or for the decisions they made at 20 to be all that reflective of who they are at 30. It’s just a fact that up until your early 20s you’re biologically impaired when it…

“And for those who are defending her on the basis of her youth, some of us were at our apex of passionate political idealism at 22 or 18 or even 16. People tend to become more conservative with age not the reverse.”

Though now that I think about it, aren’t most teen soaps ridiculous?

I’m just not of the mind that there’s no such thing as miscasting if you’re a good enough actor. That’s why casting is such an art. It’s not enough to pick talented people, it’s about picking the right people for the right part. And I just don’t think Hoult, for all of his considerable talent, was the right person. …

The Atlantic does a lot of great work, but there’s been some serious issues there that have gotten it on people’s shit lists such as briefly hiring Kevin Williamson, that shitty cover story they ran about transkids two years ago, and EiC’s Jeffrey Goldberg’s truly lame comments for why he hasn’t given more women and…

Sullivan was the EiC for The New Republic, not The Atlantic, thought the Atlantic hosted his blog for a while and he wrote pieces for the print magazine.

She wrote back and said that isn’t true, that it’s “just sad” that I believe this, and he has plenty of money. No need for grifting.

I didn’t even realize that Tab had survived into the 21st century and could still be killed off. I feel like I haven’t seen it since the mid-80s. I remember my mom drinking it when I was a wee Sailor, but she switched to Diet Coke when that became a thing sometime in my early elementary school years.

I don’t think that’s it.  He’s in normal dress clothes in all of the pictures we see his hair in.  I don’t think there’s space underneath the bat suit for a suit and tie.

I cannot see Hoult as Batman or Bruce Wayne. I love him as an actor, but his energy doesn’t feel right for the part. I just can’t see him as someone whose entire reason for being is to beat up super villains and petty criminals alike in order to soothe his inner tormented child. Plus his face is a little too pretty…

I agree. Given his health issues and the fact that He never struck me as completely dumb (just cruel and ruthless), I’m sure Christie did know that COVID was dangerous before he got it. But the influence of peer pressure does not end in high school, and the public’s adoption of mask (or sometimes lack there of) weari…

If she hates her dad I suspect it’d be more for the way he humiliated her mother than for his politics.  The Giuliani/Hanover divorce was MESSY.

I too am pretty incensed about his haircut. I first noticed it in the trailer a few weeks ago and it continues to look terrible. I insist that it be cut and for all of the scenes that showcased this awful style to be re shot.

I’m with you on most of this, but I have zero interest in someone taking Chris Hayes away from my primetime lineup.

I’m glad to hear you’re considering sticking with the SPF at least. There’s nothing wrong with letting nature take its course and eschewing anti-aging skincare product (a lot of their promises are shaky at best anyway, especially if your goal is to turn back time and not to prevent future damage), but protecting the…
