he doesnt like ben grimm?

there’s no way to tell who’s the thing unless you do a blood test...so...

Every sensible person deliberately tries not give Boris any attention.

I hardly see how he stands out in a country with Boris Johnson in it.

I’m with you, it was definitely cringey at the time. I always thought part of the point of the movie was that the relationship was all kinds of unhealthy for both of them?

The worst thing about the original X-Men was that the marketing missed the entire point of the film - the tag “Trust a Few, Fear the Rest” is exactly the sort of fearmongering the film is trying to fight against.

I’d go so far as to say it’s never healthy to idolize anyone or anything. It’s nearly unavoidable, to be sure, especially in one’s more impressionable years; but that doesn’t mean it’s harmless.

Connor was never a realistic candidate for president

Can't help but notice he didn't mention the nine bucks he still owes me.

Willa. Is. The. Best.

I can’t believe this week’s episode had me cheering Conor forking Roy. first for telling the GOP candidate to take a hike and second for taking Willa’s feelings about Oman seriously. Is their relationship the healthiest on the whole show?

Also, the best line: “A bit car-bomby.”

Like, regardless of my politics, Succession in an aggressively leftist show that is in part about politics. Most of the Roys actively mock their own anchors, viewers, and specifically Mencken as Nazis. I'm just reporting on the text of the show.

I don’t know, but they might talk like that if they’re not particularly ideological and only care about money. It’s plausible super rich people might accurately describe the fascist right wing and corporate Dems since it’s common knowledge for any one who follows the news that both exist. That they’re the sons of a…

Willa had some real bangers this episode. “Will we be able to live above ground?” The entire Connor sub-plot was hilarious starting with the opening offer being Ambassador to Somalia and ramping up from there.

I, too, would have been unsurprised by a Tom balcony dive. I'm glad it didn't happen but the show did not shy from that possibility.

That’s just weird vanity dogshit the Coens were too nice to dissuade Turturro from doing.

Cranston and Paul is not a Breaking Bad reunion to the gang - it’s “Malcolm in the Middle” dad and someone they think is grown-up Malcolm, lol

Someone on the Root posted the sheet music side by side. No parts look identical. If I were on the jury and saw that, it’s over.  

This is the worst thing that a member of Marvin Gaye’s family has ever done to a musician.

everyone in the comments should sue each other for stealing the same joke.
