I sympathize. As a fellow Clinton voter, I too thought she was the best option when compared to Bernie Sanders. I still think she was the best option. Anyone still pushing the 'Sanders would have won' bullshit is a delusional fool at this point.

To be fair, if there's a 69 year old woman to be scared of, it is Hillary goddamn Clinton.

Not only does he say 'no leaks', he says 'what's said in the family stays in the family'. I'm not even fucking kidding, that is an exact quote.

That tweet is worded in such a way that I wonder if the "F" word is Flynn

I think there was a sea change today. At the risk of sounding like yet another Democrat who thinks 'oh, this will be the one that ends him', this actually does feel different.

I'll grant you that they were certainly on the verge of something there ("Exodus" is the closest they came to really making good on it), but it all just felt like preaching to the choir. Compare that to SHIELD, where they offered up an intricate storyline about poltical and racial bias against Inhumans that served as

Damn it all, you're right. I should have cast a perfume commercial model as an FBI agent instead, people would have been so much more able to take that seriously as a drama.

Fucking *Quantico* got renewed? ABC will officially renew anything. Quick, get me an ABC executive, I have a show to pitch called "45 Minutes of a Cat Just Straight-Up Licking Its Own Ass" for a prime Monday night timeslot.

At least everything that happened in the Framework was actually realistically something that you might expect Hydra to do if it took over the country. There were clear 'fuck Trump' references but nothing that felt so contrived you thought it was just shoehorned in there for little reason other than to say 'fuck Trump'.

Agents of SHIELD did it better because it's a show that actually uses political commentary in service of the story. Supergirl is a series that waves its Anti-Trump flag high with absolutely no care for how to integrate it into the plot and expects us to like it because hey, fuck Donald Trump.

Rule 34, brought to you by Netflix

It's absolute and utter erasure of asexual representation in media. The writers were clearly too lazy to come up with a storyline for a character that doesn't revolve around them wanting to fuck someone. Really disappointing, and pretty much the biggest reason I refuse to watch.

I knew I could count on you to cut through the crap in any given comment thread and say what we're all thinking… I mean, what most people are thinking… err, I mean, what the sickos are thinking. Totally not thinking about that at all, nope.

True, but the writers confirmed that, had the show been renewed for a third season, the Nakai would have returned. They were way too important to the whole mythology surrounding Chloe not to.

He was also basically the only actor capable of making you feel bad for a head honcho of Hydra.

They're one of the many, many plot threads from Stargate Universe that never got resolved due to it being cancelled. I'm pretty positive they were shaping up to be the Big Bads.

Your complaint is wrong in my opinion for two reasons. Reason 1 is that good writing shouldn't have to depend on special effects, ever. But Reason 2 is that this episode actually had some pretty damn good special effects. Were we watching different stories?

Americans don't truly understand just how hilarious "The Sun Makers" is. The comparison I always give people is to imagine if there was an episode of the original Star Trek where Gene Roddenberry just woke up one day, said 'man, *fuck* the IRS' and wrote an episode where William Shatner railed against taxes for 45

Your second paragraph nails it. Also, the modern-day Kree think of themselves as enlightened and merciful, that's exactly why Ronan was trying to wipe them out, he wanted to go back to their roots.

Yondu in the films is Kree.
