I have fond memories of Mr. Rogers. I wouldn’t mind an administration of calm, soothing comfort.

I cannot explain how hard Biden winning the rating war against Trump made me laugh. Especially because normally I don’t think that really matters that much, but Trump has made his ratings such a source of pride that this has to hurt him so bad. What probably makes it even worse is that the general consensus on Biden’s…

I think this is both true and also not really a truth Jezebel wants to grapple with. The story of the 2018 mid-terms was NOT “The Squad”, all of whom won in D+30 districts.

This also underscores the potential that a less bombastic, less confrontational, more savvy, more competent, but equally hateful asshole, could come along and take the presidency and do a ton more damage than Trump did.

Might it be as simple as: most people don’t follow politics closely, and many didn’t take Trump seriously until it was evident he’d win the nomination. Well-spoken mother of grown children from central PA did not particularly care for Hillary Clinton, reasons unstated, and maybe felt a bit disenfranchised from her…

I just pray to god that Trump isn’t reelected.

Hey, the A-Team was all about helping the downtrodden (those that no one else could help), loving it when a plan comes together, and drinking your damn milk. None of those sound particularly Trumpian.

Perhaps the difference in tone wasn’t due to the moderators but more due to the difference in how the candidates approach having questions asked? I mean, Trump walked in and was combative from the start. Biden came in and seemed willing to discuss the questions asked.

The very first episode of Mister Rogers actually has King Friday building a wall around his kingdom out of paranoia of invasion. I’ll just lob that out there.

I’m sure all those people who were complaining about NBC giving Trump a platform will take back their words now!...

In the documentary Won’t You Be My Neighbor they had a clip of Fox News personalities talking about Fred Rogers like he was the cause of what was wrong with Kids Today.

It’s insanity that our government was so incompetent, so cruel that this was allowed to get as bad as it is. We knew as early as January how bad this virus could be when stories were coming out of China, and our government did nothing to prepare us. I heard reports from China about the rising death toll, how bad it…

I will never, for the rest of my life, understand the violent anger of people who are upset about being asked to wear masks. It’s such a nothing inconvenience with clear benefits for the individuals and society. There’s no amount of empathizing or psychologizing that will put me in that mindset. It’s like trying to…

I’ve honestly been surprised at how durable the right’s victim mentality has been. Even when in control of the White House, Congress, and the Supreme Court, they just never stop shaking their fists about how the liberals are doing terrible, terrible things despite the fact that it’s conservatives who have all the…

There are only handful of musicians who completely revolutionize the way that their instrument is played.  Eddie is in that group.  No one sounded like him before he showed up and then everyone sounded like him.

There are so many cool things to like about EVH, but my favorite has to be from the 90's. VH1 did this all star garage band jam with Paul Shaffer as the band leader. EVH, Steve Winwood, Richie Sambora, Sheryl Crow, and Bryan Adams with some more I can’t remember were part of it. During one song Richie and EVH are…

“Runnin’ With the Devil” was one of the first songs I learned to play on the guitar. It was relatively easy, yet incredibly satisfying. I remember feeling like a total badass for half-assing my way through it, even if it wasn’t the most challenging VH song to learn.

Does anyone else want to see a Fox News children’s show now? “YOU’RE NOT SPECIAL UNTIL YOU PROVE YOU ARE! GIVE ME A REASON TO LOVE YOU!”

Children should be forced to fight to the death for our entertainment, to winnow out the feeble, and the survivors forced to scrub the inside of smokestacks at coal-fired power plants.

Man, fuck that. Mr Rogers taught how to have self esteem but not at the expense of compassion for other people. You can feel good about yourself AND not be an entitled fuck head. I don't think any of those shitheads get that
