Ice Cube doesn’t even seem to understand the basics of negotiation. All the Republicans want from him is the illusion of caring about black people. He gave that away for free while getting nothing in return.

The writing for Home Improvement was actually quite progressive. Jill is a feminist and always called out Tim for his sexism. She also put a stop to any signs of sexism from their 3 sons. It is a big part of why women liked the show.

Jimmy Fallon is an environmentalist. He takes great pride in recycling the audio of his own laughter from the previous 30 takes of the scene.

RIP McDowell’s

Brad and Chris have young children to support. That alone makes the decision to leave so much harder.

Then the celebration, or horkey, began: a wagon of corn would be wheeled into a village as a band played, and women were sent into the field to retrieve any crops the men missed. Then they gathered dried corn husks to make dolls that trapped the female spirit of the divine cailleach (Gaelic for “hag”), who lives…

The content isn’t the problem. It is the delivery. He is a while male mansplaining and being praised for it.

Carrey has talked about how he made a decision early in his career not to do impressions. While people praised him for the accuracy of his impressions, he didn’t think they were funny. As a result, he leaned into physical comedy and built his brand on that.

It’s pretty clear that people only voted for him because he had an (R) by his name in Republican stronghold. He certainly didn’t win any votes with his Southern Dandy Charm™.

I’m not in favor of a town hall format if we end up with another Ken Bone.

I suspect that the last debate has left him shaken. He painted himself into a corner by goading Harrison to use his own words against him.

I’m willing to give it a chance. One of the challenges with adapting the Discworld books is that Pratchett’s writing style is very unconventional. A lot of the tone comes from his abundant use of footnotes and other literary devices that do not have a visual counterpart in TV or film.

Re-litigating Bernie Sanders is not a holistic approach. It centers around the presidential election. It comes across as sour grapes. A real holistic change starts from the local level, but people would rather talk about the DNC because that is an easy target.

If we go further back in time, folktales and fairy tales also draw from humanity’s need to escape reality to process heavy subjects. At the heart of these stories is the faith that good will triumph over evil. Now more than ever, people want to believe that there is still hope for humanity.

When a site employs more than one writer, you are bound to get different opinions.

Why do people keep insisting that this is an election where losing is an option? People did that in 2016. After all the pain and suffering, are we still hungry to keep going down this road to perdition?

It doesn’t matter who the doctor is. The Oval Orifice is going to make a fool of himself with this stunt. He is probably going to have an uncontrollable coughing fit like last night.

Due to the other flavors of Cup Noodles being sold out, I had to make do with the lime chili shrimp flavor nobody wants. I filled and emptied the cup with cold water a couple of times to get rid of the seasoning. Next, I poured in hot water from the electric kettle to cook it. The original flavor was gone, and I was…

Satire comes in many forms. His approach still doesn’t sit well with me. I have ethical qualms about pretending to be someone else just to prove a political point. The same justifications could be used to defend shameless provocateurs like James O’Keefe.

What good has it done? Encouraging people to double down on prejudice only makes it harder to change things.
