I mean, sure, but she basically dissuaded the girls from pursuing their dreams, rather than demanding change in the school. Rose believes that women have a role to play and that they shouldn’t shake things up. On the one hand, she was being protective, but she was also saying that their desire to try and make it in…

That toast Midge gave was pure pain. I could barely watch it. The girl’s funny but she needs to learn how to read a room.

I think she’d be a fine, if forgettable, president. I think she’s a good bureaucrat and there weren’t any major scandals while she was senator or secretary of state (I don’t count manufactured scandals like Benghazi).

Which is usually the opposite agenda I’ve seen GMG support over the 10 years I’ve been commenting here

“The Electoral College has the same structural flaw. Along with 337 of my colleagues, I voted in 1969 to amend the Constitution to abolish it.” - John Dingell literally in the article.

None of this bypasses any of the problem of the Senate. Laws must pass both chambers, and judges are appointed by the Senate. A majority in the Senate - vastly easier to get due to the horse shit 2 senators per state - gives truly insane political punch. Adding more people to the House does absolutely fucking zippo to…

SNL has taken the weird track of having Trump be the pathetic straight man in his own administration full of bizarre, broad, evil characters. He has no punchline. He’s the most competent, stable man in the room and that’s very not the case.

Look at what they’ve done well. Spicey. Jeff Sessions: Opossum Man. Kellyanne…

To Sir With Love was absolutely terrible, and with no jokes in it either. At least the Mueller Christmas song had humor or at the very least, attempted humor. There’s similarities in that they’re both political, but the Christmas song was much better.

Steve Carell’s episode sucked harder than this one, so I feel pretty comfortable laying the blame at the writers’ feet.

Bezos is just as bad as Trump and may actually be damaging America more than Trump is. Millions of people have lost jobs because of Bezos yet people worship him like he’s some great savior. He runs a flea market.

I get tired of political skits and jokes that say nothing and have no meta-irony or subnarrative. Trump is bad...but he’s just a current fixture of long running problems. Glorifying Jeff Bezos showed us all how unaware SNL and its writers are of the tenor of the country. The room is damn cold, put on a sweater.

hot take: mckinnon is an insufferable theater nerd. her shtick has gotten old and her impressions are all the same. 

the show needs a culling. get rid of half the cast, clear out the writer’s room, and get rid of jost. it’s amazing to me that the material they’re putting out passes as acceptable in their minds. i suppose when you have a writer’s room full of smarmy ivy league pricks who think every bit of content they produce is gold…

Not liking Trump doesn’t make you a Progressive, it barely makes you human.

And yet it’s the progressives who keep insisting on ‘purity tests’

Something something, The Left needs to cooperate and not be vindictive about not getting their way. Something Something compromise with the establishment.

No one forced them to choose war instead of peace in 1948

Yeah, Marc Hill clearly said that the only means to garner peace was to slaughter all the Jews.

Immediately, pro-Israel commentators and groups jumped on Hill’s comments as anti-Semitic and even genocidal

In Trumpistan there can be no distinction between being critical of the militant ethno-state of Israel and being anti-Semitic.
