Exactly. This notion that the best way to defeat Trump is to remove any and all scrutiny directed toward the other very bad campaign, and just agree as a contingency to pretend they’re doing a great job at this? Is incredibly disturbing.

“you should have supported a stronger candidate to begin with”

“In a normal situation, absolutely.”

“I think, perhaps, you don’t realize what will happen to this country should Trump win in November.”

If you have to wrap your candidate in bubble wrap to protect them, maybe...pick a better candidate?  But I’m not a highly paid election consultant.  What do I know?

For a good example of why Yellow Paint may be necessary, watch a Streamer play the We Sing level of Alan Wake 2.

Suits, the #1 streaming show in 2023. I don’t have to like the facts, but I can’t deny them.

Cole Sprouse’s character on the Suite Life on Deck graduated from high school on an episode from 13 years ago! He then played perpetual high school student Jughead Jones on Riverdale for another seven seasons. He should be on the playing  young professionals in rom-coms phase of his career by now before he starts…

Love these games. I was really happy with the release of the Apollo Justice trilogy since Dual Destinies and Spirit of Justice never got physical releases stateside. Although the Phoenix Wright trilogy that came out previously I had to import, but it had all the languages, yay.

It’s a name. A quick Google tells me her family is from Nigeria originally. There’s this thing you may have heard of where names sound different depending on which country they originate in.

Are there any left who aren’t actively coming for gay rights, reproductive freedoms, and honest recitations of American history?

I mean yeah but also...it’s just a strange trend. Chappelle, Haley, Gillis... And all in an election year? And Michaels surely remembers the criticism SNL got for letting trump host, so at this point it’s hard to believe it’s anything other than intentional.

Honest question to Lorne: Who is asking for Nicky Fucking Haley to be on SNL? 

Paramore cover was excellent, as expected. Curious to learn which artists get “Psycho Killer” (Miley?), “Once in a Lifetime” (The National?), “Road to Nowhere” (Lorde?), “And She Was” (girl in red?), as well as “Wild Wild Life” (The Linda Lindas?).

I’d love to hear more about how it’s reductive to draw a connection between anti-trans rhetoric in entertainment and anti-trans legislation gaining traction. I won’t hold my breath though.

There’s something deeply ironic about you reading that response and saying “they always jump to calling you a nazi,” and being the one to actually bring that term into the conversation.

“Stop acting like you’re under attack!” he said, logging on in defense of the rich entertainer.

I’d say declaring “I’m a terf and proud” in the midst of seismic anti-trans laws denying basic human rights getting passed is advocating for something incredibly terrible, but hey that’s just me.

Freedom of speech protects his right to be a bigot and a bully, and it protects our rights to call Dave Chappelle a piece of shit hack. Shit cuts both ways. 

As much as it would suck seeing that hack bigot wander onstage for the curtain call, imagine the extra sting of seeing your colleagues and coworkers eagerly embracing him.
