Why do any idiots ever go on a dating show?

Totally. If I were that rich I'd dress like a homeless person.

I'm a dude…maybe the only dude watching this show? I dunno. But this Jeremy guy is incredibly boring. Rachel's scenes with Adam are much much more interesting.

House of Wax.

The more I think about it, the more I can't figure out why Lois Smith didn't just make Elizabeth shoot her in "The Americans".

Hm, gonna have to pick this show up again after binging the first four episodes nearly a month ago. Which one's the sexy schoolteacher? More of her, please.

Video killed the radio star.

This item really nails the habit of lefty websites and how they run clips from shows as clickbait. It used to be a one-paragraph article about how Jon Stewart DESTROYED some wingnut or Stephen Colbert DESTROYED some wingnut, or, if they want to be creative, how Paul Krugman DESTROYED some wingnut. Complete with link…

Lee Harvey Oswald killed President Kennedy, he acted alone, the Zapruder Film is entirely consistent with that fact, and anyone who says otherwise is willfully ignorant.

That's not the fairest characterization of Humphrey, who was an old-school liberal. It was Humphrey who created the first civil rights platform at the 1948 Democratic convention.

This was not James Cagney's first musical, BTW. A full decade before this movie, he was in "Footlight Parade", a Busby Berkeley musical with all the gigantic Busby Berkeley musical numbers. It was also pre-Code, which means it's wall-to-wall hot ladies in skimpy costumes and has tons of double entendres.

Yup. Funny that TR the "warmonger" got a Nobel Peace Prize for brokering an end to the Russo-Japanese war. Nor did he ever actually involve the US in a war anywhere, although he was of course a big enthusiast for taking Cuba before he became President and a big enthusiast for supporting the Allies in World War I…

That's an interesting counterfactual. Does Roosevelt win in 1912? Together he and Taft got about 50%, and their votes added up would have made a crushing victory over Wilson. But how much of the Taft vote would Wilson have gotten? If Wilson could have scored as much as 1/3 of Taft's votes we might have seen a…

You forgot the real-live Socialist, who scored 6%.

…anymore? Who ever showed "Birth of a Nation" in history class? In a film studies class, sure.

If it makes you feel any better, there is no evidence that Wilson ever said that quote. It was the author of the source novel (Thomas Dixon, "The Clansman") who was almost certainly making the quote up.

There are at least five different Amy Schumer sketches about why you shouldn't think about that. Those thoughts are bad!

Much more than Leslie.

Wait, is this a video? Goddammit.

Well, Wood was a drunk and a pornographer. Wrote novels with titles like "Raped in the Grass" even back in his Johnny Depp salad days.
