Plucking nose hairs isn’t a picnic, but it won’t wreck you.

I hope so. I just have a special place in my heart for Karnage. That he isn’t as over the top flamboyantly ridiculous vocally as he was in the past breaks my heart a little. It certainly won’t keep me from watching the show (which, again, I love), but it does turn me into a little bit more of a grumpy old man,…

I love the new show, but man... I was let down by Camil as Don Karnage. Cummings played him so perfectly. I feel like Camil was doing Cummings at 40% and it flopped. 

Came for this. Well done.

Katherine,

I assume they’re going to uncover new evidence leading to a retrial of Mr. Bates.

Prachi, I think you’re great, but I think you fumbled this one a bit.

Fusion voting is garbage and I hate that NYS allows it.

Give me io9 and I’m in. I’ll even agree to engage with Hamilton’s Socialist screeds, thus sparing the rest of the lunch room. I'll fall on that grenade. Burneko has to agree to be my friend, though. Those are my terms. 

Is it amusing, though? The administration is telling a bald-faced lie and we’re supposed to chuckle (because we recognize the ludicrous lie), nod, and move along?

Not that I have any love for American Catholics, but are they really the big issue? Granted, their lalala *plugs ears* regarding the child sex stuff is demonic, but when it comes to the world at large, I kind of thought American White Evangelical religions carried lion’s share of the blame.

Take care, Emma. I’m actually going to log into the idiocy of Twitter now and then to keep up with where you all are landing.

Sorry, I had kids and haven’t paid much more than cursory attention to my formerly beloved video game world in several years. What’s the deal with Bethesda? Are they evil now?

My wife and I kept our own last names. When we decided to have kids, I was pretty adamant that I wanted them to take her name. My mother remarried when I was young (father and his whole family sucked/sucks) and I have no siblings, so I had no desire to pass my name on. Besides, I have an extremely common last name and…

Not for us, certainly. But pop culture moves ever onward and eventually everyone becomes “classic”.

Ellie, I have no idea if you’re a good political reporter. But you are absolutely the most entertaining political reporter. Please never change.

Your Florida is showing, you well-meaning but inherently flawed human being.

Yeah, I grew up in heavily Catholic rural Central NY. My family is fairly above-average Catholic-y. Definitely all Republicans. But I think that’s more of a rural thing than a religion thing.

This is my city. I can say that the Caucasian people in the community are pretty outraged and the African-Americans are basically like “Yep, that sounds about right.”

There’s actually a lot to the story of how and why the IDC formed. Being that they formed because they claimed the downstate party leadership was corrupt... and then a couple years later, all those leaders went to jail for corruption... make of that what you will.
