The same people who say “get over it” when classrooms full of children are slaughtered are now combing through social media posts to make sure everyone thinks this specific instance of gun violence is the one we need to burn the Constitution over.

Jack’s reaction here is really disappointing. Even if he disagreed with the comment and thought it was in bad taste, throwing your friend and creative partner for decades under the bus to this extent is a big shame.

Folks need to learn they don’t have to express every thought in their head. A lot of people feel like Gass but you just can’t say so.

Say what you will about how diet and fitness have evolved over time, but Richard Simmons was the rare gem that actually gave a crap about actually helping folks get healthy and happy. Sweatin to the Oldies and all his videos/ specials were filled with real people who were there to get active in whatever way they could

So sad to hear this. His energy was infectious and he seemed like a genuinely sweet guy. May he rest in peace.

Right now, Baldwin is probably home, with a glass of scotch, rolling his eyes as his wife asks him what it means that he is “how you say, not guilty.”

He had no reason to believe the gun wouldn’t fire. It wasn’t supposed to be loaded with live ammunition, period. The responsibility for ensuring there was no live ammo on set and in the device designed as a lethal weapon that was in perfect mechanical condition fell to the AD and the armorer, not Baldwin. SAG-AFTRA

A special prosecutor called herself as witness. You pretty much should just lose your law license for that. Just a wild bunch of stunning stupidity.

I got bored of SNL’s writing and quit watching before he went into his oversaturated appearances as Trump, but he was one of my favorite hosts when it was good, up there with Christopher Walken and Justin Timberlake.

For those not familiar with trial procedure, judges have a wide range of sanctions available to them for attorney misconduct. This one is the equivalent of a nuclear strike.

Per NBC in November of 2023:

Yeah, it almost felt vindictive and personal. I didn’t think his actions rose to the level of criminality though I can see him being held accountable civilly.

...the prosecutor called herself to the witness stand?

I mean, yeah, anyone following the news can point out how weak and plain weird the prosecution’s case was.

“the acting he did on Saturday Night Live.”

Actually, biannual is twice a year. Which is also semi-annual. You’re thinking of biennial.

For what it’s worth, I think Jost and Che are pretty good. They have good chemistry together, which helps.

Maybe because you don’t get a concussion from being yelled at.

And who uses a public bathroom without locking the door?

Maybe this is a generational divide, but I assumed “written it down immediately” meant the Notes app on his phone. Because no, people don’t usually bring a pen and paper into a Portapotty these days.
