Most cop narratives have done that since the beginning of television, including good old Andy Griffith, and even before in things like Sherlock Holmes. And people of all political stripes consumed those narratives and accepted the authority of those figures in fairly equal amounts.

I mean, I’m not disagreeing with the…

I would say it is “conservative” in that its lack of political bias inherently implies comfort with the status quo, but then it is as conservative as, say, The Big Bang Theory, or Teen Titans. So conservatives enjoy it because it doesn’t attack them, but then, neither does Law and Order. For it to thus become…

They did. I’ll sum up.

Binance, one of the biggest crypto trading firms, announced it was liquidating its entire portfolio of FTT coin in response to a news report that Alameda, FTX’s founder’s separate trading company, was creating artificial scarcity by owning and holding over 14 billion dollars worth of FTT coin in…

And Burry buys water futures.

Cherry on the cherry: Anderson’s character is named Thatcher.

Now that’s another name that deserves to already be in the Hall of Fame. 

Huh. Interesting! Especially that part about Indigo Girls: I would have absolutely assumed the reverse.

Don’t disagree, except for the dig about only women being able to spoken to by her work, which... no.

It’s a basic 4/4 pop progression in A minor (meaning whoever is playing piano doesn’t even need to hit the black notes, hehe) and the vocals, aside from the backup singers, go from A2-A3 (or depending on how you read it, A1-A2). It’s literally just an octave, one that’s pretty comfortable for either an alto or a…

As a salty ass production person myself, I’m pretty sure I trust anonymous production people being pissy and leaning into the talent-versus-backstage false-dichotomy far less than one of the most consistent performers of our time saying something mundane that boils down to “I need this shit less than the Hall of Fame…

I’m gonna need you to Cut. It. Out.

Except she’s not calling on anyone to boycott the show or anything. She’s just saying she didn’t do it because she didn’t want to, not because she couldn’t perform as some folks seemed to be trying to leak to the press.

Following like lemmings would be assuming the most dramatic interpretation possible of the first…

Hehe, sure. I was getting a little hyperbolic just for the joke, and of course no one deserves to be a diva, but if anyone did, Morrissette’s probably up there. My point is merely that the Hall of Fame could have quite reasonably been on thin ice with her already because of its already not-so-stellar record on…

It’s vague, sure, but I simply trust her motives more than the Hall of Fame. Also, Rodrigo performed a solo instead of a duet on a pretty dang easy song to perform.

It’s also worth noting that she and Rodrigo have a pre-existing relationship: Rodrigo was the one who presented Morrisette’s induction into the Canadian…

I’m personally at a place in my career where “Please do a job where you don’t like the people and aren’t getting paid, and do it out of the kindness of your heart and a smile, because, gee golly, you respect someone getting honored there” gets a big fat “Kindly go fuck yourself”. Certainly not a requirement I tell…

“But nobody would accept options unless they knew they could make those options worth money.”

...Your argument is that a bad business decision made by a privileged moron that accidentally worked out despite his own efforts is evidence of criminal liability and fraud? Really? That’s what we’re settling on?

Musk is a…

This.

“You gonna die for some chickens?”
“Someone is.”

The best responses here boil down to this:

1) Diversity in game casts is a good thing, and yes, it would be disappointing if Yoshi P were only making the standard “historical accuracy” canards.

Kenan’s surfer accent is even more hilarious once you realize it’s a copy of Kel’s old Good Burger accent, complete with raspy stoner laugh.
