Filled a spot that was held by a man as an online organizer for a progressive PAC. Bring in 25,000 new members, press, famous people, revamped online training and vetting systems. Somehow find out (ok, I made friends with the accountant) that dude was making $65k. I was making $40k. Asked for a raise. Boss tells me,

A friend of mine is also a friend of TJ Miller from before he played the cameraman in Cloverfield (I think that was his first role). As far as I know they’re still in touch. Every story that started, “My buddy TJ...” was sure to end with something assholeish and douchey. My friend is sort of arrogant and douchey as

Oh Jez, thanks for this.

It wasn’t a brain tumor, he had an cerebral arteriovenous malformation, which is less likely to cause major behavioral shifts than a tumor. So I wouldn’t rush to dismiss this kind of behavior as a symptom of a health problem. He can be an asshole on his own merit.

I think you should write more pieces on Cardi B. Pretty soon you’re going to make her a thing.

If he wanted to warn someone about a bomb, he should have called theaters where The Emoji Movie was playing.

TJ Millers nose dive is far more entertaining than anything else he’s been involved in. Someone as talentless, annoying, and overall terrible person as him, makes the schadenfreude all the more satisfying.

When Jennifer Lawrence farts and drops fbombs and drinks like my uncle, she’s adorable.

I like “hygge horror” personally.

Prepping has always been around, but Y2K fears really got the ball rolling. I had a friend whose family sold their damn house to buy a bunker somewhere out west. Then a black man became president, and people lost their god damn minds, and prepping exploded into the industry it is today.

Relax, they’re just taking a break from gushing over Tiffany Haddish.

I was wondering how they poop the entire movie.

Ditto. I live in a major city and sometimes people ask me “but what if there’s a terrorist attack that takes out your city?” Dude, if that happens I want to go out with my city. I’m not a fatalist or anything, I get flu shots and wear seatbelts. But if there’s a zombie apocalypse, I want to be one of the people who

I must have low survival instincts as I absolutely have no wish to survive any sort of apocalypse, etc...

SPOILER ALERT!!!!!!!

I am pretty sure it said day 479 or something like that, when they flash forward from the opening scene to the bulk of the movie. Which actually makes some parts weirder. Oh, wait, this is Jez. I’m gray here! Yes! I can rant without spoiling. If you’re actually reading this, and you don’t want spoilers, run away, run

Look, I get that she is an example of intersectional feminism (WOC, sex-positive, feminist opinions that are not academic) but I have a problem with the way every single fucking article conveniently overlooks her expressions of bigotry, leaving it up to the readers to invariably get all REEEEEE in the comments. Yes,

I love to watch movies like this because, you know that deep seated human desire to survive? I don’t have it. I’m always interested in not only how people survive these disasters, but also why? I want more from life than just “not” getting eaten by monsters! Seeing people struggle to hang on to, so little, is crazy to

Oh hey look, ANOTHER breathless Cardi B article, following on the heels of one yesterday. I can’t wait to see what Jez has to say about Cardi B tomorrow!

Don’t think her music is worth all the starry-eyed ass-kissing of this review, but her persona is wonderful and hilarious, so there’s that.
