He confirmed he’s taking Ivermectin. You may now express your shock.

This just makes me miss AV Undercover even more, and wish those videos were still somewhere on the damn site. Does anyone else remember Calexico’s amazing “Danger Zone” cover?

Don’t forget, it also had bill cosby in it as the title character’s therapist. Everyone adores him, so you just know it’ll age well! (Unlike, alas, its title character.)

He was a very good actor whose work I enjoyed, and who also did a lot of good as an activist. However, he was also heavily involved in supporting autism speaks, which I (and others in the disability rights movement) consider a hate group.

Alex, what is a “milkshake duck.”

How long until he needs to sing “I shall be released”?

He didn’t think twice. It turned out to not be all right.

I assumed it was a reference to “I Saw Her Standing There” by the Beatles - “She was just 17/you know what I mean” (for which the original lyrics were even “she was just 17/never been a beauty queen”, which is remarkably close to the SNL song).

Pretty much. In the middle ages, cavalry were basically OP, and one pike wasn’t going to do you a lot of good - too easy to parry or avoid, and as you note, even if it works it’s probably not going to end terribly well for you. You usually needed a whole line/formation of them to effectively stop cavalry. (At least…

Wait, they have her composing “Respect”? I love Aretha, and am all for giving her a ton of credit for all her accomplishments, but are we supposed to forget that Otis Redding wrote the song?

Yes.

Speaking only for myself, I’ve had the Olympics on, but paid little attention to most of it. Some of is indeed how disjoined the coverage is - I don’t have the time or energy to figure out which of 18 places the coverage of the event I care about is going to be on, so I just tune to the main network, and if it’s not…

FWIW - they played obnoxious extremely well, but while I never met Ron in person, Jessie was an exceedingly kind, sweet, and considerate person. 

Speaking as a die-hard Yankees fan with deep Bronx roots (albeit one in a relationship with a Sox fan), I will joyously hate the Sox until the day I die. That said, I think we all - Yankees and Red Sox alike - can come together to say that we really, really fucking hate those cheating Astros.

I’m still grieving Jessie’s death, so it’ll take me a while before I can watch it.

And here I thought this was.

I met McCarthy at a screening back when he was promoting The Visitor. One of my favorite directors, and a really nice guy too.

And let’s not forget this. https://jezebel.com/reminder-your-celebrity-folk-hero-bill-murray-was-once-1746069734
