Am I crazy are the members of the old Nite Owls clan obviously the spies? They didn’t mention Gideon’s facility being built (Mandalore is not getting so much traffic that they wouldn’t notice) and they led the Mandalorians directly to the forge where they were immediately attacked.

HBO is changing its streaming service’s name to Max. By the time the episodes air it will be aired on Max, but right now it’s HBO and not Max that can comment.

See, we’re supposed to protect comedians because they tell us the truth and open our ways of theinking. But Chris Rock is such a stupid hack that he doesn’t see the obvious reason. You don’t encourage people to come together and stop listening to music as a virtue signal, but so you don’t fund abuse. You get a few…

My bad, I was thinking about the Daily Beast article, not referenced here.

Aw man. I thought we were seeing a Renaissance of the old Flavor of Love celebreality days. Housewives are great and all but the racoon in me wants some real trash.

The article also references 1997 when Rock made fun of Jada for attending the Million Women March in Philadelphia or as Rock puts it, “Bitches by the Bell.” You know, you can condemn violence and Chris Rock being corny. Only in cartoons and fairy tales does one person have to be good because the other one is bad.

Will Smith should not have slapped Chris Rock. It made that old reference having (GI Jane is almost 30 years old) unethical coward into a martyr. Comedians like Rock have a cop mentality. Cops get to do whatever they want because their job’s so dangerous. Guys like Rock have to be protected because they “speak honest…

The people falling for this are clout-chasing clowns. Who cares what hashtag is used when the same red hat sons of bitches wish us equal harm?

I usually did Synthesis, but I just finished a replay where I chose Control. I don’t love that it was the Illusive Man’s idea, but his last big idea was to go after the Collectors so not all of his ideas are bad. And it’s arguably not his total idea because he was going to use it to give humanity a leg up, not all…

They are the perfect blend of pop culture and serious issues colliding, which was once the point of SNL.

The town’s motto?

When i see Kanye news I don’t so much react to it as I get prematurely angry thinking about the inevitable redemption attempt. There’s too much money in the back catalogue for them not to try. “We all owe Kanye West an apology” is coming and it will be ridiculous.

Just to get you even madder, here’s what the “littering” accusation was about:

Alex Jones is just asking questions...where the answer is always an overpriced supplement sold on his web store where he makes his real money.

Agree. The tone of the show doesn’t point toward an Inherit the Wind-type trial. First off, it wasn’t a trial; it was a parole hearing.

If I’m a costumer, dressing a hot rich person going partying with her 20-something friends in the summer, am i going to put her in a mid-aughts combo of going out tanktop/exposed bra or a sweater? She can’t help her boobs. This whole thing reeks of principals who send girls home because the boys can’t concentrate.

For once, the AV Club isn’t missing anything (up to that point; a lot has happened since). There was literally the DM and then the tiktok about social power.

I’m not sure about this framing. As we see in the article above, toxic, traditional masculinity isn’t what women are looking for but that doesn’t seem to stop men from being damaged by the expectation. Or perceived expectation.

It’ll be back, like Popeye’s Cajun Rice.

I’ve always hated the pedants who attempt the “literally” thing. People are using it correctly when they use it in hyperbole. Do they want us to start saying “it was literally so rainy I had to to go back to get an umbrella?” Are they running up to people saying “DOES your bag weigh a ton??? What are you carrying,…
