I mean, a lot of them are literally too poor to do what you’re suggesting, especially small-market owners. A high net worth is not the same as “I can afford to lose 10-50 million a year indefinitely”. Ballmer and Paul Allen could do it. Maybe a few others.

This is so insane to me. If he actually DID run as an independent, Dems would go out of their minds screaming that he was splitting the vote and handing another term to Trump. Why are you suggesting he do it?

Sanders couldn’t beat a hobbled Clinton in 2016. Hell he couldn’t even win the black vote against Clinton who was fighting off a soundbite calling black youth “superpredators” and saying “we’ve got to bring them to heel.”

I’m not sure that the vitriol for the Podcast is warranted, and I say that as someone who has listened to maybe 2-3 episodes, and watched 2 of the HBO shows. It seems to me like this is a group of people who are actively involved in trying to get Republicans out of office and have generally progressive ideals (even

This is where Trump’s scheming smarts afford him a “win” (at least in his view). There’s the outcomes. Sulzberger says No, and Trump spins how the fake news won’t meet with him to resolve issues. He says Yes, and talks about it, and Trump says it’s proof why you can’t trust the media. Or, what happened, he said Yes

Aw, you poor snowflake.

We’re gonna need a bigger boat is so goddamned brilliant not for what the scene does (which is pretty damn cool), but for the setup for that punchline. Consider this. . . .

Club Obi-Wan?

If we can spend millions of dollars and multiple decades looking into possible aliens then we can spend millions of dollars and multiple years developing test walls that never actually get built on the border.

And if Poe had just followed his goddamn orders and trusted his superior officers it could have saved the lives of 90% of the remaining Resistance people too. Because that’s actually how military organizations work. You don’t get to decide that hey, your commanding officer isn’t leveling with you and it’s time for you

It’s essentially the most un-Star Wars movie ever made.

“All the help” was like, 6 people.

Eh I disagree with it being an “idiot plot point.” Keep in mind that Holdo had no idea that Poe and Finn were planning some insane plot behind her back. As far as she was concerned, her plan was working fine without any hitches, so there was no reason to tell a dumbass, hothead pilot who had just been demoted. Her not

Huh, these things you hated were some of my favorite aspects. It’s almost as if our opinions are subjective...

You just admitted you read Star Wars comics. Not sure how objective your viewpoint is going to be here.

If you take a step back, you’ll see that Snoke was really an awful, truly terrible character. He was the living embodiment of a Star Wars trope. If you feel the need to cling to that, well, read the awful Star Wars

I honestly have no clue what you’re talking about. There is nothing passive aggressive about this article, not is it raging about anything. It’s simply relaying a pretty real phenomenon—the obsessiveness of fandoms and hostility towards casual fans, often for the fact of their relative casualness, can be seriously

So, which of the films is your favorite, if you don’t mind my asking?

Something worth remembering here is that an awful lot of the folks currently calling for Franken’s head have either defended—or at least made excuses for not denouncing—Moore.

Yes, Franken’s actions were accompanied by photographic proof—but the allegations against Moore have been made by multiple women, and have been
