Just looked up the author’s name, he’s still a college student. These sites really are going down the tubes. 

Also, EV sales are not slumping - in fact Q3 sales were 50% higher in 2023 than 2022. What is happening is that Tesla’s market share is falling fast and their stock price was predicated on constant inexorable growth which is less likely now.

You wanted this piece of shit? You’re stuck with this piece of shit.

Judging from the plot synopsis, it’s Battle Beyond the Stars.

Looks like typical Snyder slop. Can’t wait for the cultists mental contortions telling everyone how much of an overlooked and underrated masterpiece this derivative shit is.

This pilot was so good that the pilot of Succession uses the exact same plot.

There were dozens of us!  Dozens!

It’s quite possibly the best comedy pilot of all time. Most shows need a few episodes to really gel. Arrested Development was top notch from the start.

The impact on dad jokes would be absolutely devastating!

The classic short-term gain, long-term rat-fucked.

The price increase was not over 10 years. It was practically overnight

Quadrupled the rate downtown and the inner core of the city (up thru like Wrigleyville on the North Side, and down to Sox Park area), Double in the fringe neighborhoods at first, though now those neighborhoods like Edgewater (where I live) is up by about another 50 percent.

They quadrupled the rate when they took over. 

Libertarians are the stupidest people you ever meet and their ‘ideas’ are based on the simple fact that they never think things through.

Most people knew it was a bad deal from the start, but Mayor Daley pushed this through the city council in such a short time that he didn’t give the citizens a chance to weigh in on the deal. All that money was spent within a few years of getting it so Chicago has nothing to show for it. Daley also sold off the Skyway…

I was living there in 08 when this went through. Me and my wife went out onto our street and gorilla glued like 20 meters shut in protest.. small effort but i am glad it cost the city a little bit for its stupidity

Hey Miller (Warren Oates here)...this really sucks but isn’t surprising. I can’t imagine how it feels to see your original concept and web site get forced to change it’s style and concept.

Oh my God! THE AV CLUB HAS DISBANDED!

Sean — I think I can speak for all of us salivating, rancorous, sewer-dwelling mutants when I say we’ll miss you. Thanks for the years and years of great work.
