...he does know who he hangs out with at the White House every day, right?

He resigned rather than face any kind of legal system. It’s kind of like fleeting to Switzerland to avoid arrest, then complaining that you didn’t get a fair trial.
What Franken did was crass. But was it on par with a Weinstein, Jim Jordan, Brett Kavanaugh, Donald Trump, etc., etc., etc.? No. It wasn’t.
In the end Franken wasn’t a Roy Moore, a Harvey Weinstein, or Trump.
The “change” is that men need to learn there are consequences for this kind of harassment. You can’t lead that change for everyone else and avoid facing consequences for yourself.
Not sure if you’re kidding here, but it was seriously some good shit. Bruce Willis did an adaptation of Harlan Ellison’s “Shatterday” that was magnificent, and there was a version of Richard Matheson’s “Button, Button” that was better than the original short story. It’s highly underrated, mostly because everyone shits…
Honestly, continuing to write in Hollywood at all for as long as he has is a success. In an industry where you never tell anyone your age and they’re always looking for the next new thing, anyone with a long list of credits didn’t get it by accident, even if they weren’t often the showrunner.
People are allowed to be bored by anything they want. But telling other people, “You should be bored by this because it bores me,” is just being an asshole. I have plenty of things I am not interested in, have not been interested in, have lost interest in, or will never be interested in, but I’m not going to go around…
You joke, but that was kind of a thing back then. America has done a really good job of sweeping under the rug just how commonplace and ordinary support for the Nazis really was in the 30s. German-American organizations like the German-American Bund and the Silver Legion were actively plotting to overthrow Roosevelt,…
They used projection? No wonder they’re attributing all the problems with the trailer to the audience.
I still remember getting a Randall Terry mailer addressed to the previous occupant of my home, back when I first moved in. He was asking for money for some sort of research project in the Middle East, but he explained that there was a snag because the college he got his Doctorate of Divinity from wasn’t “accredited”…
Hope for him to be dead instead. It has better results for the rest of us, and based on his dietary habits and lack of exercise, it’s more likely to happen.
I was shocked to find out as a fully grown adult in my late 30s that a Puerto Rican independence movement tried to assassinate President Truman.
Y’know, the Back to the Future series got a little dark in the later installments...
But I mean...that’s the craziest thing about it, right? That they spent all the money on CGI, all the time and effort on mo-cap and digital fur and everything, and it barely looks any better than just buying a cheap Halloween cat costume and calling it a day! The extra expense and effort and money didn’t make it look…
Sadly, I think this presentation is also needed for your average citizen of the fifty states.
She’s an amazing representative. I live just a tiny bit south of her district (we finally got rid of our Republican shitbird last year, though!) and honestly, she does a wonderful job for her constituents and raises the bar every day for the House. If we had 435 Ilhan Omars, we wouldn’t be having the problems we do as…
I know! Like, can I use that defense for anything? “Look, I was under a lot of stress, and I got a little drunk, and I fell victim to the temptation to murder a stockbroker. But I come from a good family, right?”
Dunno about “eat a bag of dicks”, but can I show you Kitzmiller v Dover Area School District?
Things seemed normal... but at the same time they didn’t. Like everything seemed peaceful and quiet and friendly, until a parade of Nazis went by brutally assaulting everyone who didn’t give the Hitler salute while the police watched. Or until someone was dragged out of their home by the Secret Police because they…
