San Junipero calls its shot by showing the server room during the upbeat ending; I don’t get the impression it’s saying “this is actually sad,” but more just reminding you that this happy, vibrant couple driving into the sunset are actually just some ones and zeroes. Feels more like it’s saying “does it matter that…

Well, it still could?
Goddamn, Jim Jefferies is the shit. The bit he had about gun control on one stand-up special was fantastic.
Presumably there are younger women in the military who use birth control pills, and older women who use HRT. Donny isn’t kicking them out.
That is why you always follow up. When you receive that kind of answer you go “And that is why you are a complete dumb ass. You do no research whatsoever and just make up bullshit.”
To be fair, he looks like an absolute doofus without the hat as well.
“They take massive amounts of drugs,” Trump said. “They have to, and also—and you’re not allowed to take drugs, you’re in the military, you’re not allowed to take any drugs, you take an aspirin... and they have to, after the operation, they have to, they have no choice, they have to. You would actually have to break…
I sprained my ankle on our annual division run* when I was in the Army back in the early 2000's and went to the clinic. They gave me five percocets and a bottle of about a hundred 500mg Ibuprofen(amusingly referred to as “Ranger Candy” in the Army) for it instead of, you know, an ace bandage and some ice. So yea,…
“You can’t take drugs in the military.”
Alright. Tell that to the guy in my BCT bay who was on albuterol.
Tell that to my wife, injured in the line of duty, who was on percocet during recovery.
Tell that to the various and sundry soldiers at the VA hospitals filling prescriptions for things as mundane as allergy pills…
He forgot (because he’s an idiot) the first fucking rule of campaigning: never, ever, ever, put on a goofy hat.
Why is nobody addressing the hat? I thought it was photoshop!
I suspect that I like National Anthem more than most. I think that it has interesting things to say and placing it in the here and now, not some either vaguely dystopian or outright dystopian world, helps it work. I have to give it props for actually walking over the line, when other shows would’ve found a way to…
Dismiss your idiot troll.
Can we talk about how dumb he looks with this hat? I hate the mans policies, is overall presence in the whitehouse, and the fact that this timeline we have an uninformed racist man baby as commander in chief... but good god, he looks like an absolute doofus with that hat on.
Trump bolloxed up the GOP talking points of the cost of medical treatment to care for in-transition personnel, and he spewed “they take drugs”.
When Morgan pointed out that the Pentagon forks over tons of money to subsidize Viagra for servicemen—dwarfing the cost of medical care for trans troops—Trump nevertheless insisted “I didn’t know they did that,” adding, “It is what it is.”
Who watches that asshole? Especially when he talks with the world champion asshole? These guys...
“It is what it is” is a perfectly acceptable answer from the most powerful person in the world explaining one of his own policies.
