Cartman making racist generalizations about Token is not new ground, even if they’ve updated the reference. They’ve altered it enough to be able to tell the same jokes they always have been, but the world has changed and satire has evolved away from “look at how racist Cartman is being” or “Randy sure is sexist, but

This episode seems like it was written in 2004. It’s one thing to rip off your own storylines or bring up a bunch or real world events without really having anything new to say about them, but the jokes aren’t even funny. I watched this happen to The Simpsons too, it’s a real bummer when a show you loved gets too

Well said

It’s already starting with a lot of product categories. I think that’s why they’ve stalled on breaking Prime video, etc, off of Prime delivery. Once people realize that they’re essentially paying a years’ worth of delivery fees in advance instead of getting “free delivery,” people are going to start looking at the

Income inequality is the cancer, Unions were the immune system. Look what happens when they’re weak

He wasn’t the best part of Community but it was a well written character, even when Pierce became outright villainous and cowardly as the show went on (which looking back was probably a reaction to Chase’s behavior on set)

I have no idea if the “spend the competition out of existence, then turn the screws on the consumer” strategy will end like Amazon or MoviePass, but I think we can all agree that this Quinn dude would be fun as hell to tell that you had gotten headhunted with a much better offer.

“Deserves to be heard” is becoming the condescending phrase of the year. Like they’re willing to take some time out to make her feel better by letting her vent, as you would with a child who had a bad day at school

Authoritarians can’t capitulate, their power is derived from people who embrace them for their perceived strength. Facts and narratives can be rewritten on the fly, but showing weakness or giving any ground to the appointed opposition undermines their supporters’ confidence and, by extension, their loyalty

It’s Blitzwing not Starscream, but the movie still looks dope (relative to my lowered expectations)

Ugh, this is going to be a nightmare for anyone who uses Chrome on their work and home computers. Amazon Prime/Amazon Prime for Business login mix ups have caused so many issues already, can’t wait until an auto-signed gmail account gives the company full access to a personal email account just because someone opened

43 days until midterms. Vote, even if it’s just to say you made the gesture and nothing more. Bring a friend if you can, ask them to do the same.

It’s an important distinction from a media narrative standpoint, but personal preferences influence business decisions all the time so it is worth presenting both and going into how they affect each other

Jake Johnson, because I find his humor lazy and condecending, and Jimmy Buffet because he makes terrible music that my worst boss ever loved playing every shift

It reminds me of older comedians complaining about how audiences are too sensitive or they won’t do colleges anymore. Obviously if a roomful of people aren’t laughing at your jokes, they must be the problem. Sure buddy

I don’t think it tanks the episode or insults my intelligence, but I didn’t care for the ending either. Bojack might be too self absorbed to notice a room full of lizards, but no one intervened even when he was messing with their relative’s casket?

“please don’t contact me, live your life as if I don’t exist anymore,”

“Chickens”

Politico had an article about some rumblings of a Russia investigation document dump Trump was cooking up for mid-October, part of me wonders if someone looking to get Kavanaugh out of the headlines going into another weekend didn’t decide to leak word about McCabe’s memo early. The obvious contradiction would be the

Action animation is expensive. The Dragon Prince was a short season too, and it was very clear there wasn’t enough budget to go around. They wisely prioritized polishing the action, but the dialogue scenes were from the very bottom of the uncanny valley and it never really improves as the season goes on
