Except Pepe is a symptom of a deeper problem…Once you ignore it you're essentially giving them free reign to be accepted.

The confrontation of an aging white conservative base facing extinction turning to a 'strong-man' savior, akin to that of Stalin or Mussolini hoping to regain vainglory they had working jobs that were shipped overseas by the people they now turn to protect them. Meanwhile the other side promoted a staid center-left…

Yeah, I kind of accept that. I really do treat the simpsons as comic ages, instead of getting hard resets like the Crisis on Infinite Earths we just kind of have to pick a season and assume nothing happened before that. We're roughly in the Bronze age now, continuity is shot to hell, most of the episodes are now 15…

I'll have to check it out sometime. I binged Jessica Jones and I was not disappointed. I wasn't a huge fan of Tenant to start with, he's a good doctor and all but he wasn't the main reason I watched. But Ritter carries the whole show without much effort.

She's probably my favorite of the 'new gen' actresses but I really only watched her in Jessica Jones, I missed out on the B in Apt whatever. She really has a solid sense of pathos and emotion. She does carry herself well. Underrated in my view.

As a pale brunette, I don't mind us getting more screen time over the blondes but still…Creepy. :S

V_V Please no. I tend not to hate any actors but Kristen Stewart is not one so I don't feel as bad hating on her drivel….

Which is a hilarious moment in their canon that they undermined in some stupid episode later…but I refuse the retcon.

Burton, I was thrown the first time I saw it as well. Burton is getting into that creepy place Hitchcock went with his taste for blondes, just grabbing the next pale brunette and pushing her into his mold.

Chalmer got an entire episode with the bullies & Bart about Teddy Roosevelt, I suspect that's how he got is count up substantially…

Have you noticed that Barney has been basically written out of the show in the last decade? I remember them slowly cleaning him up to not be the totally one-dimensional character he had been. I've noticed in the last few seasons even the no-name extras aren't even drawn into Moe's.

Moe's been getting episodes the last decade or so, he's become Homer's real best friend over Lenny & Carl who were defacto friends in the golden age.

The lack of female voices isn't wildly unusual if you look at the makeup of Springfield. It's a surprisingly sparse society, we really only deal with Homer & his workplace along with Moe's bar. They're a sitcom family mocking sitcoms of the 1970's and 80's and their writing reflects that still. I mean, even in the…

I actually had an awkward meeting where I met Arnold Palmer at a restaurant in SW PA (near his part-time home in Latrobe) and I was a child who loved iced tea, so I had a glass at our table and well….I got up to say 'hi' and ask him for an autograph (because even at 8 and not caring at all about golf, Arnold Palmer…

Which was developed explicitly for the fighting games coming out.

No, it was a shorthand reference to acknowledge how later Simpsons used CG animation and denotes a decline in quality. Sorry if you thought there was a serious argument behind that.

Ok, I'm not going to waste 3 paragraphs arguing with you, your moral outrage word wall doesn't do much to prove an argument. Basically you're an isolationist with a moralist bent trying to hide behind the argument that those who can do shouldn't do. Whatever gets you out of bed in the morning, the rest of us will…

1.) Smoke there's fire arguments always need to confront who is blowing the smoke. I've yet to see a reliable smoke blower who didn't have a private goal either as a candidate or a media entity seeking a horse race narrative.

I'm replying to you because you need to see it more but KateH more or less hits it on the head. For obvious reasons the US has become the defacto world's army. We're expected to keep the peace for everybody and while undoubtedly we have screwed up quite a bit we have empirical data that *le gasp* Democratic…

This is how you know at the end of the day it's something cultural, it's maybe not sexism in it's purest form but it's a poisoned well. When a person can come to a rational conclusion that she's a B+ candidate in an election against an F, they're still willing to sit it out or vote for a non-graded candidate (because…
