Only note on your recaps is on Space Babies because RTD crammed a lot into it. What if we use space babies and a snot monster as a metaphor for how conservatives treat life in the womb vs once they’re out.

It’s just so weird. I understand that the ad is supposed to mean “look, we compressed all these things into an iPad” but that’s just not what it actually says at all. It solely reads as: “look, we’re violently destroying at least one thing you have a strong emotional connection to; now give us a thousand dollars.”…

I like how these folks want all the perks of a governed society but none of the responsibilities. Isn’t there a patch of desert or tundra or a vacant Island we could move them to so they could be free. 

What the fuck even is this article? Nobody gets an air fryer because it’s magic.

Two things.... ‘Little convection oven’ = less counter top space. :) And I’ll bet 95/100 people spend less than $100 on an air fryer.

Aaron Taylor-Johnson would be a good Bond. He’s currently a year older than Sean Connery was when he first played the role.

It was somewhere between the 3rd and 6th most popular show on Max last year, depending on who you check with. Nowhere near massive flagship shows like The Last of Us and Succession, but it also didn’t cost $15 million per episode. (In fact, they cut the budget by 40% for season 2, and it still pulled in an…

Hush now bigot, your betters are talking.

only 7% of people enjoy pirates? Well, I guess those Depp movies did start to stink. Almost as much as him! HIYOO

I was pretty satisfied with the ending we got to Season 2. So I am not too sad about this. But I will miss the idea that we could have gotten an arch set in a tavern.

David Zaslav is not to be trusted with art. He has no taste, no sense of humor, no sense of story, no ANYTHING except a ceaseless thirst for short-term gain.

I plan to vote for Joe Biden. I also hate Joe Biden. Like, hate.

My issue is with the idea that we “deserve” better candidates, considering we’re the ones who picked them.

No one expects Stewart to be a propagandist for Biden the way Tucker is for Trump. It’s just supremely unreal to see the media at large, including Stewart, treat Biden’s age and occaisonal gaffes as if they’re in any way comparable to Trump’s insane, dictatatorial, self-absorbed ramblings.

i didn’t have a problem with him mentioning biden’s age but i found that for his first commentary back, that pointing out that both candidates are old and america deserves better candidates wasn’t some homerun that he, and others, thought...as this has been discussed ad nauseam, and will continue to be, until the…

Cheap illustrations. India. Yeah, I know. I used to be a medical illustrator, and illustrations such as these are expensive and have to go through a LOT of quality checks, ... normally.

Sports also have no narrative stakes. In movies you’re saving the world, rescuing the hostages, figuring out how to defeat an alien virus, etc. while sports has one narrative and that’s one team lost and one won and proceeds onwards to the game’s yearly battle where one team will win and one will lose. 

How can you love storytelling and not find those stories captivating?

I am not at all interested in seeing a slight variation of the same game being played yet again for the many-thousandth time while cheering for some team simply because they happen to be the nearest geographically collocated team.

For that reason, I’ll never understand anyone who loves film and television but shudders at the idea of a sporting event.
