I’m so sorry. I have a similar issue with my mom and brothers. We can’t talk about anything even remotely political, so our relationships are basically dwindling to crumbs of the most basic of topics: weather, dinner, pets. Even then, weather is related to climate change. Anything can be tied to the liberal agenda.

I am holding out hope that the lawsuits filed by Dominion and Eric Coomer against will re-establish “the line”. Since Equal Time ended in 1987 conservative media content has been a constant barrage against the truth.

Ugh, I’m so sorry. Thank you for sharing this. I hope you get your dad back one day. Your dad’s story sounds so familiar from what we can observe happening to many people who become radicalized: a person becomes more isolated from others, then something comes along and fills that void, messages repeated over and over…

I don’t really speak to my father anymore. At one time, we were great friends. We didn’t have to agree on everything, but we could find common ground on a great many subjects.

Similar to what you say about your father, mine has also always been known for his intellect. He home schooled my half brother and half sister…

I used to work graveyard shift in a factory an hour from my apartment on rural roads. I would leave Rush on during the drive home to keep my angry enough to stay awake - as a result, I am intimately familiar with his predatory hucksterism.

He was dogshit, spoke dogshit, and made money off dogshit people. He repeatedly made fun of everyone not fat, white, and him. He routinely vocalized hate of everyone from Dems to Drug Users - until it was actually him and suddenly he wanted to be loved for ‘suffering from an affliction’ - that affliction being jamming…

I hope there’s someone with medical knowledge here who can sound off on whether anyone has ever taken a 9mm to the melon with no exit wound and been anything other than seriously fucked up if they managed to survive.

Your snobbery about animation is a terrible, terrible take.

I had no idea what Dave was about when someone recommended it to me, but by the end it was my favorite show of the year, edging out Ted Lasso.

huge call on dave. a show that SHOULD be terrible, but is remarkably charming and warm.

It really hit me that Mythic Quest actually came out this year as I keep thinking it being from 2019. In that case, yes, absolutely, Mythic Quest should be on this list as it that was one hell of a journey.

Dave on FX was probably my favorite show this year. Surprised (actually not surprised) it wasn’t on this list.

From my experience living in a super red part of a swing state, yeah, pretty much. there are legitimate safe gun owners, hunters, target enthusiasts, collectors, and there are these clowns.the former can be completely rational and reasonable, but these guys with the penis guns...they are usually pants pissing cowards…

I feel weird. I’ve been watching this since it premiered my senior year in high school. All through college. Up until tonight, the night before I leave an old life behind and start a new job. This show has always followed me through the changes in my life and it’s weird that it won’t be there anymore. It was never the…

but it sure was racist when he called Detective Mendoza “dear boy. No. No it’s not. Sutherland (and his eyebrows) are a senior, likely English educated, art and humanities expert and “dear boy” is not in anyway an ethnic slur and commonly used. My very senior boss uses it all the time when giving me a slight,…

Well he WAS a Judo champion at age 11.

This doc made me very angry. They barely touch on all the underage rape allegations that have been made against him since 2011. They also make it seem as if the Mexico operations were innocuous when, in fact, he sex trafficked underage girls with the promise of getting them a Green Card. All with the help of Mexican…

This Raniere Dude must have some personal magnetism that only comes through in person, and not onscreen, because watching it I found it hard to believe that all these women were willing to be the sex slaves of this stubby little bearded choad with greasy center-parted hair.

This show has some really powerful individual moments, but it never coheres as a whole. Like, apparently this was all building up to Atticus sacrificing himself? That really does not feel like a natural culmination of what came before. The final scene is a confrontation between Dee and Christina, who barely interacted…

I think you are projecting too much on this. The Neuman reveal doesn’t mean Progressives = Nazis. It means she’s a wolf in sheep’s clothing and we have not a clue what her game is. I didn’t get that take at all. Cults of personalities are bad things was my biggest take away. If, next year, they show her as committed…
