It’s way worse than just not paying taxes. Amazon’s profits are subsidized by taxpayers who foot the bill for food stamps and other support needed by the workers he fails to pay a living wage.

It gets overlooked because of the controversy around his affair with Miss Piggy.

Wow that’s a book I need to reread. I don’t think I ever saw the film.

I meanwhile took months to end it because I went through about half a dozen continuous loops before I finally got myself to move on to another show. That was such a great lockdown binge — I think I got addicted to the group friendship more than I might have during normal times.

Wikipedia’s Underground Railroad entry sounds like a tour guide who’s explaining this for the 14th time today.

I always thought The Office never got as twee as the others because it was about a company whose employees almost universally didn’t want to be there. So even when the workplace family trope got a little too cuddly, it was mitigated by the fact that everyone hated the actual workplace. Even when characters like…

It did include me getting hopelessly lost and reviewing the coil with some precociously bemused kids in Bed-Stuy.

Oh god. I have no sense of direction and I used to get hopelessly lost the second I stepped away from the grid. The first time I stumbled across the intersection of West 10th and West 4th Streets I felt like I’d gotten so lost that I created a rift in the space-time continuum.

I was actually going to Queens to catch a double feature at the Museum of the Moving Image and it was only $5 and it was amazing! I am so old.

In the mid-90s I biked from Brooklyn to a place in Queens I’d never been to before, and I wrote the turn-by-turn directions on a long strip of paper and then coiled it around my handlebar, unwinding as I arrived at each turn. I feel like that story should end with a gratuitous get-off-my-lawn.

Wow, so when Better Call Saul finally catches up to the Breaking Bad timeline, Odenikirk’s gonna be almost 20 years older than when Saul debuted on BB. They should have Jimmy get a facelift in the very last episode of BCS.

This was such an innocent time to be a Gen Xer, when coming right after the boomers we assumed we’d be everyone’s target demographic for as long as they were. Who knew it would only last about 5 years.

I remember loving this when it came out, but I finally rewatched it last year and was pretty disappointed.

Weird, just the other day I was trying to remember what movie the line you’re alluding to is from.

Yeah, I hope her horrible opinions don’t obscure the fact that she had the acting ability of a tree stump and shouldn’t have been hired in the first place.

Holy shit that kid’s in his 30s now.

For some reason he’s blocked me and now I remember a year or two ago a bunch of others who’d had no interaction with him whatsoever noticing they’d been blocked. No idea why.

The “List slides” option at the top right will definitely spare you a certain amount of grief.

His The Boys performance led me to watch Banshee, which is definitely worth your while.

She was such a weak link in a show I otherwise would have loved. There’s a huge difference between a talented actor pulling off a restrained, detached character (e.g. Rami Malek in Mr. Robot) and a wooden actor just being wooden.
