Remember when you were done with middle school and you were like woo hoo, we’re done with middle school?

In fairness, regular Watergate was also stupid. One time, they locked themselves in a liquor cabinet while waiting until everyone left the Watergate hotel ballroom to sneak into the DNC. Most of their bugs didn’t work, which is why they went in the night they were caught. And they were caught because they tapped open…

I don’t know if it’s true either. I don’t. How can I know? How can anyone really know? But I think it’s interesting that so many people think it’s true. It’s interesting. You know, I have a friend Jim. He’s a big, big—very big—guy. Very substantial. He used to go to Rep. Cummings’ house almost every year. Bar-b-ques,…

Even the thing she got “right” in the debate, race relations in American, was actually underwhelming when you break down her solution. A $500B reparations plan works out to one-time payment of about $11,000 for each of the roughly 43 million African-American residents of the United States.

That hardly seems like a…

Because someone who thinks the mental health should be treated by preachers instead of medical science should not be in a position (like the presidency) to influence public health policy.

The wordmark should be in comic sans. That way both LA teams could have taken something from Dan Gilbert.

Except her entire motivation for speaking truth to power was her girlfriend broke up with. She wasn’t fighting the system for justice. She was fighting the system out of narcissism. 

I’m team daydream on this, but this is the best argument I’ve heard for the flashback theory. I kind of want to see it again to see if my perception changes. The thing that keeps me in the daydream camp is the way Lee dented the side of the car like it was made of silly putty when Cliff through him. That was pure…

I thought everyone in Election was a villain?

Tracy’s “relentless drive and obnoxious self-confidence” were objectively gross.

Her platitudes were well-timed but also, even by the standards of platitudes, empty claptrap.

She’s for reparations. But her plan for reparations ($500B) works out to a one-time payment of about $10,000 per person. I’m too white to say what reparations should look like, but I’ve read enough from African-American…

The thing about whether he killed his wife or not is my issue with the film. The thread made Cliff darker and more menacing, which is to its credit. It was also a bit of an homage Natalie Wood’s death, which fit the rest of the film.

That was beyond crystal clear. I don’t understand the flashback interpretation at all. It’s like people who argue that Born In The USA *really* is a patriotic song when it’s clearly not.

I’ve spent almost two hours trying to figure out a pun involving Barstool and Elizabeth Warren, but I have failed and my boss has left for the day so I’m going home.

I’ve lived in the Detroit area most of my life.

As long as your guru’ing doesn’t discourage vaccines or encourage consumer coffee anally, I’m fine with it.

His behavior was objectively predatory regardless of how she perceived it. He was 40, she was 13. The whole point of grooming is to ensure someone doesn’t see your behavior as predatory. He crossed a line no one ever should have crossed. Period and full stop.

The thing with Celine is that the way her relationship with Rene continued and ended seems to have rendered how it began moot, but it was deeply problematic.

TRUMP, CIRCA 2022: No one has ever been forgotten like I was forgotten. Everyone watched. Believe me, the ratings for my forgottening were huge. Many, many people say no one was more forgotten than me.

It reminds of Stephen Fry’s wonderful line about people who are offended by swear words. They’re never offended on their own behalf, they are only offended on behalf of presumed other people.

PEOPLE WHO KNEW AND LOVED SHARON TATE: What a wonderfully respectful portrayal of this person we loved.

DUDE ON JEZEBEL: How dare…

There are plenty of good reasons why people would dislike Tarantino as a person, and there are plenty of good reasons why people might not care for his brand of filmmaking. That’s fine.

However, the Tarantino is disrespecting Sharon Tate take isn’t just someone being offended on behalf of imaginary others, it is…
