The first time I ever heard "passed" to euphemize "died" it was in reference to someone I didn't know had died. I was confused as hell for a few seconds until I figured out what it meant.

I guess some people weren't LIKIN' IT.

Who?

Is there really an audience for a Duplo movie?

The Mark! Which Rob eventually said was too much like the Matrix to get made.

They should have Grant Morrison write a screenplay adapting Alan Moore's run on SUPREME, just to see what happens.

Clinton running meant that the primary race would come down to Clinton and a Not-Clinton-Alternative, because there'd be no oxygen in the room for anyone else and because the press would cast any candidate who showed any signs of life circa summer of 2015 as Obama 2.0. Had Clinton not run, we might have seen more of

Clinton running meant that most other ambitious Democrats, other than Martin O'Malley, decided to sit 2016 out…which created an opening for Sanders that might not have existed had the primary been between O'Malley and Amy Klobuchar and Cory Booker and Kirsten Gillibrand.

Also crook. He's a fucking crook.

Or if Bernie hadn't spent months claiming that the fact that he was losing to Clinton was itself proof Clinton was corrupt?

During the primaries I saw more than a few Sanders supporters complaining about black voters who didn't understand why they had to vote for Sanders and not Clinton. But, you know, Clinton was the entitled one.

Yes. Go back and look at polling from mid-2013 to around early 2015: Clinton was the only Democrat doing well against any of what were thought to be likely Republican nominees (Rubio, etc.). So many Democrats got behind her so early because they thought she was their one and only shot at holding the White House, and

Others have already noted that Sanders couldn't win the Democratic nomination. So I'll just note that Sanders 1) received almost universally positive coverage throughout his primary race, in part because nobody thought he'd be the nominee, and 2) Clinton barely attacked him (and, no, "Senator Sanders' position on gun

I watched it with my daughter a while back and found it rather charming.

"Ella Enchanted" has music throughout, though, so it makes sense to end with a musical number.

That's likely because Reagan is awful. How does a 30-year-old actress have the facelifts of an actress in her 60s?
