Oof. Am I glad to have stopped working for Gamestop ages ago. I also no longer shop there. I feel bad for the employees. They’re the ones doing all the work and dealing with all the bull. As a company, Gamestop needs to die. They've been steadily enshittifying every aspect of their business for years now. I'll miss…

Damn!  John Larroquette and Marsha Warfield are the only ones left.  

Aww, man.

And the Cheers he visits should be exactly like the tourist trap it is today, because Woody moved on from councilman to state senator to US senator and the place is famous because of that.

And he meets the new regulars (since all the old ones have moved on): Sherm the bartender, Carlotta the waitress, Clint the mailman, and (comes in the door) NOOOOORV!!!

You want to bet on a dude fucking an alligator... Money Plane.

In general terms perhaps, but I think the situation does become greyer when it comes to the kind of Nanette-eseque “this is My Truth” autobiographical-confessional-didactical strain of stand-up comedy which has become a lot more common of late, where the whole point is that the comedian is supposed to be expounding…

This was the first I heard about the Hassan Minhaj kerfuffle, which was disappointing.

I don’t think it should be a career killer — Louis C.K. has proved the bar is a lot, lot higher for that — but it makes sense that it’s going to be disqualifying for hosting the Daily Show, at least this time around.

This is mind-boggling. I guarantee you that no-one with power gives enough of a fuck about Brand to frame him for anything. He’s actually less relevant to public life than ever before, thanks to his alt-right grifter reinvention.

Justin Roiland and John K. should team up for a project they have so much in common. 

All this smoke, I’m sure there’s no actual fire.

Sir, this is an Arbys

I love when dummies think it’s the writers who are responsible for the same old ideas being produced when in fact it’s studios who greenlight movies and TV shows. Studios hate originality and demand rehashes because they care about profits not creativity. It was the studios that wanted a Barbie movie. It was the…

From the sound of your comment, you don’t have any new ideas or fresh viewpoints to provide.

Remember when the A.V. Club used to do deep dives into like the 2000's Midwest punk scene and there’d be like 500 comments?

Here’s to piracy. It’s really the only reason why video games from the 80s & 90s are still available to play. Want to play that arcade game you spent way too many quarters on back in the day? Piracy lets you do that. Want to play a beloved Atari or Sega Master System game? Piracy lets you do that. The companies that…

There isn’t a clear divide between drug dealers (terrible predators) and drug users (innocent victims). My sense is that lots of people’s position in the marketplace is vaguer and ever-shifting — buying drugs, being paid for those drugs by people who are sort of customers and sort of friends, using the money from the…

Fentanyl is only a problem *because* of prohibition. If Michael K. Williams could have purchased pure heroin, held to FDA standards, from a brick-and-mortar shop like the ones where most Americans can now buy cannabis, he would have done so.

It’s an informed position collectively reached by a team with decades-long careers in journalism, police work, and education. It’s also pretty widely held across people who study crime, and has been for decades. The “broken windows” theory of crime prevention remains the go-to for police departments despite decades of…

There are no winners here. Decriminalizing drugs will allow addicts to get treatment in a safe, humane way while diminishing the chances of poisoning themselves and of committing crimes of desperation. It’s working in Portugal. The bonus is that we can empty our obscenely full prison system and have plenty of room for…
