I've just been reading the reviews/comments because failed tv shows (or ones that are near failure) tend to fascinate me but I always get depressed when TV suggests that straight men and women, or hell straight men and gay men, can't be friends without sex or attraction being a motivation or getting thrown in. I have…

Justified used the Elmore Leonard rule that dumb criminals are easily caught beautifully.

Like Alien Vs Predator??

Billy Eichner going out of his usual character (which I enjoy!) is the one thing that actually intrigues me about this show.

I agree with every single one of Patton Oswalt's observations about NYC, namely that it's like being a rat in a cage where everybody just keeps fucking with you to the point that you're an angry incoherent asshole yourself.

Why did I click on this, why

I openly laughed when she claimed to be the mom of an adult in the Divergent movies. She looks maybe 35!

OH I KNOW

…Nope. You can look up the two political philosophies.

Yep, exactly. The Republicans' ideology ends in a capitalist nihilism while the Democrats' ideology is…erased.

Centrist neoliberalism eventually will decline, it's really okay to take that into consideration. It won't destroy your brain!!!

Or we could move the fuck on from either party because while the Republicans are outright evil, the Democrats are fucking useless.

No one "deserves" anything. Human beings, especially in authoritarian societies, just happen to like stories. They literally always have. That doesn't make them necessarily stupid - as I pointed out Obama had a story (Hope and Change). Its just a human quality to gravitate to a leader with an actual narrative and…
