He couches his “concern” in some of the most blatant dogwhistling I’ve ever heard.

Martin Luther King Jr was shot in the fucking head.

Um, I’ve read Ben Shapiro’s book, and he is absolutely a white supremacist.

Personally, I enjoyed the horror elements of the original miniseries, and I thought Mama was a vastly underrated film, so I’m excited to see what the director is able to do with a bigger budget. And the kind of good reviews I’m seeing is unusual for a horror film. I’m much happier with this film doing well than

So if we’re 100% sure that 12% of Bernie voters went for Trump, is the assumption then that the remaining 88% just stayed home? Because I’m pretty sure the majority of them voted HRC anyway.

Up to this point, I’d dismissed all the “Trump has dementia” thinkpieces as just tasteless insults. I’m fine with him being called a racist, sexual predator, but ridiculing his mental health seemed a step too far.

This is really only tangentially related, but this feels like a good place to get it .off my chest.

Or maybe he’s tired of prepackaged shredded cheese, and wants us to Make America Grate Again.

In fairness, Scarlett has always been particularly effective at playing entities pretending they’re human. Even back in Ghost World, she fell into the uncanny valley.

I worked on a dementia unit, and one of the more awkward conversations I had was with a family who didn’t know why their patriarch was being kept under such close watch, after he hit another patient. They assured me that he was a wonderful man, and would never do something like that. I told them that I didn’t doubt
