“It’s satire” would have worked if she hadn’t concluded the bit by saying we should stay home and ignore them.
(It’s also kinda interesting to see the criticism of the Fey criticism coming down to “well, y’all just don’t understand satire.” Like people who called her out just aint smart enough to get it.)

Unsolicited advice from someone who survived a very necessary estrangement from her own mother: beware of anyone who attempts to convince you that you should be able to look past this. I wish someone had told me 20 years ago that “blood is not thicker than safety.” Thank you and good luck.
Maybe I’m just being dense; who was the guy at the end, and what was his relation to the story? Is he just someone who was looking at Anna’s profile? Was the thing, like, the ghost of getting hearts on Instagram?
Yes! I really want to see Nicole Beharie as Dana!
We are supposed to believe Bolt has slowed down as he’s hit 30 but Gatlin is that fast at 35 with no help? Nah mate. That’s also why it stinks, he’s really old for track and field.
The Gatlin win did leave a bit of a sour taste and not even because of his past suspicions. With Bolt winning, there would have been this great narrative of this great champion claiming his last victory. With Coleman winning, there would have been instead this beautiful story of the young promising athlete claiming…
I never appreciate how lucky I am to live in California until I go to another state and see their ridiculous liquor laws. What do you mean I can’t buy liquor in a grocery store? What do you mean I can’t buy beer on Sundays? What do you mean I can’t drink at the bar unless I order food?
I’m so glad I don’t come from money so that the fact that my family hates me doesn’t hurt my financial outlook at all.
WHOAH- Hold up- is that hashtag implying that they’re pouring beer on her because she dated a black guy?!? So they’re not just trashy nouveau riche animal abusing psychos, they’re also racist shitbags?!?
Are you trying to present this as an actual argument against his point, or just being pedantic?
If you were raised properly, you would know the “ They did it first!” excuse is not accepted from Kindergartners, let alone adult racists.
This is gospel, all of it.
I didn’t get the impression that the sacking of the Reach was Cersei’s plan, rather Jaime’s (He said during his monologue to Olenna that he got the idea from his defeat to Robb Stark).
In words of the great and holy dril ‘theres actually zero difference between good & bad things. you imbecile. you fucking moron’.
That is basically what you’re stating here. That we can’t and shouldn’t deliberate on the quality of things, or think about anything ever, which is nearly the stupidest fucking thing I’ve…
Let’s not move the goalposts for a second.
We pick and choose what entertainment we find acceptable/enjoyable/problematic literally all the goddamn time.
I think you’re missing a fundamental difference: we don’t live in a de facto patriarchy or Nazi dominated society currently. But we do live in one where white supremacy is so pervasive that the very concept of this show requires one to believe that the degree of systematic racism portrayed in the fiction is hyperbolic…
