Based on the sartorial decisions of the trumpists who broke into our capital, I’d say they should at least try for business-casual insurrection. Those guys just looked like the 30th reunion of the Mad Max Wasteland Cosplay Committee, Special Needs Branch.

Actually this Xmas episode makes me almost want to celebrate life day with Chewie and his family.

I have rarely been as flat-out angry at a book as I was reading “Out of the Dark.” I have read a fair amount of Weber, but that one was derivative (Footfall, any number of Tom Clancy books) and the vampires came out of nowhere with no explanation. I imagine that this one will have some discussion about where the…

Steamed fraud?

Did the mammoth then team up with a saber-toothed tiger and a sloth to reunite the child with its parents via a series of wacky adventures?

Please then with all the time and patience without any interruption,

Pointing out when the president says an obvious lie is exactly the job of a journalist. What the fuck is wrong with you?

Journalists are SUPPOSED to have an adversarial relationship with the government. It’s literally why you dummies have a fucking first amendment. You want stenographers? Hire fucking stenographers.

Every time I think, this has got to be the one. This is the one that will make his deluded followers see that obviously this isn’t a strong man. Obviously this isn’t a wise man. You wouldn’t even let this guy watch your dog for the weekend, let alone the nuclear launch codes. Only a coward would think an interviewer…

Re: Why weren’t the on-the-ground crew wearing masks: At first, I was also getting annoyed that only Connie’s sister was wearing a mask because in my mind, that would’ve made it that much easier for the Whisperers to identify and target folks. But once we see Gabriel and company up top in archer mode, it became…

I came for the Giorgio A. Tsoukalos. I was not disappointed.

In the German version it says The The The.

And Chim Chim

Like most sports cars back then, the Mach 5 was also a rally car and the saws were used to cut though trees offroad. The marshals would probably call that cheating but needs must when the leading team are bank robbers that need to be stopped!

How do you make a list about each Speed Racer Mach 5 button and not know that the jacks are for jumping ravines and opponents... the list goes on and on.

I’m impressed that you knew that the large “M” on the Mach 5 stands for “Mifune Motors” (And on Speed’s Helmet) and that Speed’s last name is not in fact “Racer,” but “Mifune.” A reference to the actor Toshiro Mifune.

Powerful jacks are for jumping chasms, destroyed bridges thing like that. Essential for beating the Car Acrobatic Team. It’s almost like you’ve never watched Speed Racer.

I wouldn’t consider The Orville a parody either as much as it’s a love letter to Trek.

I wonder why ancient people built so many of their cities underground.
