We’re stopping the rise of fascism in America like we’re stopping climate change.

Like a lot of animated shows, the pilot of this felt rough, like “wheeeeew” levels of Rough. But clearly I should go back and give it more of a chance.

Their enemy hasn’t been the US government in years, if it ever really was. It’s not Joe Biden. It’s not Bill Gates. It’s not even George Soros. It’s libs. Now, “libs” as defined here would be covering a pretty broad cross-section of people in their eyes (POC, feminists, LGBTQ, etc) but the general gist is: People who…

Their special brand of persecution complex means that even when hundreds of children lie full of holes, brains caved in with bullets, their first thought is “but what will the enemy do to try and take away my toys? Make me feel bad? How dare they.” They’ve already crossed the rubicon in so many ways, that this…

I’m genuinely predicting that some day soon, a Republican presidential candidate will make a stump speech the day after 40 kids are gunned down and say “I don’t give a fuck about your stupid dead kids.” He will probably get elected, too.

This is kind of close, though, to the scene where Don is so sauced after their big Cleo win that he thinks he can waltz into a late-hours pitch meeting and kill it, but he fucks it up and winds up stealing a hacky idea just to save the meeting.

Pretty crazy run up until Mars Attacks, though (or including it, if you’re tuned into its very specific camp wavelength).

It’s pretty amazing, given how easy it is for powerful men to bounce back from this, that Harvey Weinstein went down hard, fast, and apparently permanently. I mean, that all happened like a downed fighter jet: Screaming, on fire, pieces falling off, straight to jail. And he’s far more powerful than Louis CK. Clearly…

I remember watching one of those park walkthrough videos when all this opened up in Japan, and my initial impressions were 1) This is all very clearly made for little children and you know what, that’s fine, not everything should be made for your hideous late-30s ass, 2) Oh no, it’s so tiny and choked with tourists…

I genuinely wonder if these new movies have any fans past the opening weekend, if there is going to be a generation of kids who will grow up loving and remembering all the fun they had watching the CGI Lion King on an iPad, all the great carbon-copy songs and memorable dead-eyed characters. Or if it will just be…

I don’t really see much of a reason to be upset by this article, as it’s already been well-publicized how badly Netflix is getting slammed by low subscriber rates. This is the system working, folks: Ted has every right to call folks’ humanity a liberal issue, and we have every right to stop paying for the luxury of…

A lot of people were pretty pissed (or, if not quite rising to that level of emotion, pretty unamused) with his opening number “We Saw Your Boobs” at the Oscars.

Something we have to come to grips with, pretty soon, is that one half of this country honestly thinks dead kids is fine. There’s something in their brain chemistry that burns up so much mental gasoline on fear, for themselves and their immediate family, that they have less than zero empathy for anyone outside that…

I want this movie to be good, too. But despite the indisputable fact that Cronenberg is a master, the quality of his output in the past decade has been...well, disputable.

Everyone is scamming or getting scammed, institutions that were built to protect are now tombs hollowed out by Dominionist goons, and with the levers of power fully under their control, the rich’s primary concern is purchasing our social networks so they don’t have to hear our final, futile screams as we’re priced out…

Man, Rob Reiner had one hell of a run in the 80's and early 90's, didn’t he?

Holy Fawn is good slow, heavy stoner rock. They were supposed to play last year but couldn’t make it (as were Fucked Up, whose last-minute surprise absence bummed me out quite a bit). Also if you like knockoff Queen fun, Foxy Shazam fit the bill.

It feels kinda like...because the article got to the snark first, the comments section had to flip it around and suddenly pretend like U2 hasn’t been a snarky punching bag here for almost decades. I think we can all agree they’re an easy target by now, and perhaps this particular bit of political grandstanding is a…

Mmm, I would say that there has been a concerted effort to kill Roe from billionaire weirdos like Richard Mellon Scaife (and the Kochs, although they really cared less about that and more about getting to poison water supplies and murder their own workforce without hindrance) since the 70s. They started by establishing…

One day!
