That’s why THIS Pope being wrong about this is a let-down. He seems to have his head on mostly straight, and it’s doubtful that he’s been warped like that in the back of his mind.

Peace plan for Ukraine:

Very much so.  They could have even ended that quick skit with “And I am not a witch!”.   Random 2010 thing there.

First question to come up: Pierce Brosnan is Irish???

I think that an orbit like that wouldn’t be able to simply stay over the poles, or if it could, it’d have to be at 26 thousand miles, which would defeat the purpose of the mirror/shade at that distance.

Someone else pointed out the idea of AVClub not covering SNL for a weekend.  What would be the consequences of doing that?  Does the SNL story bump up engagement with AVClub significantly?
