“...setting traps for retail...”

Bullshit. Take the famous battle over herbalife: one billionaire publicly shorts it, correctly proclaiming it a ponzi scheme that only profits by robbing naive people; one billionaire goes all in on it in response in defense of fucking the poor. You want to tell me billionaire A is the greedy one?

Word. The term “Dad Rock” should be applied to newer music that appeals to dads (e.g., foo fighters), not old music that current dads remember from way back when (like, uh, also foo fighters, I guess).

You may not want to use the phrase “a huge chunk of people” in a sober discussion of this particular fetish.

Yeah, and that “daddy” stuff is 1,000% fuckin gross if you’re an actual daddy.

Seriously, who are these for?

Good point. And we all know the most cynical, money grabbing misers in the industry are these children’s performers. No doubt Lena Dunham an Michael Moore are buying Okee Dokee Brothers records by the box full now to blast on repeat in their child torture dungeon beneath Comet Ping Pong. 

There’s no reason we shouldn’t go all Q-anon here and insist the bathroom stuff is a grand conspiracy. I feel like it’s deserved at this point.

I don’t understand how it’s still a question whether Ken should get the job. He’s the 2nd most important figure in the show’s history behind Trebek himself, and coincidentally, his personality is the *exact* ratio of straight-man:quipster required to keep the show fun without being the star of the show.

It’s a well known fact that Tracy Chapman is a HUGE Boyzone fan. Posters on her bedroom wall, kisses a cutout magazine picture of her favorite Boyzone Boy every night, constantly talking to her friends about them on AOL Instant Messenger, etc.

“Yeah, but New Orleans is a Blue City, so....fine.”

This, +10,000%.

Haha, yup. Just try to imagine him staying engaged on a major project like a war for ~4+ years like W. did. Dude quit going to covid briefings after what, a month or two?

I don’t think it’s for lack of balls as much as it is lack of vision. If Trump had political vision beyond “Trump should be in charge!”, things might be very different.

This Old One has lost whatever Greatness he once had....MAKE OLD ONES GREAT AGAIN!

And it’s not like they could just replace the guy playing one of these iconic DC characters. Just try to imagine someone other than Jared Leto as Joker. Can you even hear the name “Batman” without thinking “George Clooney”?

It’s interesting to think how Rock/Metal/Pop as we know it arose from bombed-out England.  I mean, good god, that shit was bleak.  

That Q episode...it infuriates me that it doesn’t get mass distribution the same way that “both sides” of Q does in the press. It’s inconceivable to me that anyone who hears it could believe in any of that bullshit.

I feel like the headline implies she’s calling everyone else she/her now, which, would be mostly awesome.

Well, someone had to write a followup to “Do they Know it’s Christmas”.
