Well, this is every bit as terrible as I imagined.

Far too much white space on this new site. I miss disqus already

This is awful. If a user can create a plugin to nest comments why can’t Kinja tech engineers implement such a feature natively for The AV Club?

First feedback on the home page:

Oh this is bad.

Merging my Disqus and Kinja accounts doesn’t work. Also, the site is ugly and soulless, like Gawker. I’m pretty sad about this whole thing. :(

Oh goddammit. I had assumed the layout wouldn’t change to full on Kinja, but I was wrong.

I think regardless of who Kirkman was talking about, her credibility on any serious matter went down a few pegs when she started saying Bernie was a Russian agent.
