But the low electrical hum they induce in your ears is rather lulling after a while.

Not at all. It can so easily be played off as “should have only had meetings with someone else present” or “made some questionable jokes” when it gets down to it.

“will likely lead to some sort of crackdown” That’s some funny stuff, Purdom! Twitter will crack down on some kind of abuse! Nice! Comedy at its best.

Good point. I think we’ve all been slipping into a “Twitter is the world, Twitter is who we’re surrounded by” mentality. Twitter isn’t even a large percentage of our population, much less the world. It’s a ridiculous platform representing a tiny slice of humanity that’s getting blown out of proportion. (I’d say…

I don’t think there are enough shots of feet in Raymond to warrant even half his attention.

Starting to suspect that billionaires with few social skills and an isolated view of humanity might not have society’s best interests in mind.

My response was more about celebrities in general and this “stay in your lane” bullshit that gets thrown at anyone with a high profile outside of politics. Well aware of how it pertains to hip-hop specifically but this is being directed at pretty much anybody deemed “rich enough to have to speak about it” which makes…

“Mike Pence could never be accused of wanting to have sex with someone.”

The man does seem to have some gaps in his understanding of how government and business work.

“Maybe we need to slow down a little and explain the whole world”

By that logic, very few people in a democracy get to weigh in on anything. The same argument could be made about the storied white working class. Their lives are so profoundly out of touch with many factors that a thriving nation requires, yet we’re suffering under a terrible decision they made. And when you have…

Brits are great at nuclear apocalypse and reminders of why fascism is a dreadful idea and I’ve always been impressed that you guys will slip those things into even a children’s show. I wish more people paid better attention to those lessons.

I was just thinking about “Special Bulletin” and wondering if it would fit this column. In any case, it would be great to read a piece on it. It’s remarkably well done (at least in my memory) and the cast is spectacular.

As we’ve seen this week, it takes very little to set off fan hostility.

You know what? I was thinking Small Soldiers too. Which begs the question: Has anyone ever voluntarily thought of the actual Toy Soldiers? Outside of attendees of the annual Astin-Con, of course.

I mean I’m thinking seriously of speeding up the actuarial table.

I’d say the start was funny. It was a good random bit to make a thruway joke about. It’s when a bunch of nominal adults actually believed that something in a cartoon needed to be real that... I can’t even finish, it’s so stupid.

You’re crushing it with this series, Sean. It simultaneously gives me something to live for while believing I absolutely won’t.

They got the memo. Unfortunately it said, “Policy is boring. Interview the sweater guy.”

For him, the lunar cycle is an unbelievably complex subject. Don’t even think of broaching photosynthesis. He’ll glaze over and then send out a press release about inventing something called “photos-in-this” that makes plants green.
