America: we’ve elected a buffoonish, philanderer with a history of incompetence, tax dodging and blatantly lying and who consistently embarrasses us as our leader.

Truly a last ditch effort gone wrong. Forever 21 is unlikely to make it until Christmas.

American people: We are confident we have elected the most unqualified person possible!

Thanks to Octavia Butler’s short story Childfinder, and Levar Burton’s phenomenal storytelling podcast, Tubman is forever linked in my mind with Levar’s beautiful voice quietly muttering, “Long-haired motherfuckers.” Butler was an unparalleled world-creator, and the images she conjured of what it meant to truly…

“boys in the woods camping kind of like Moonrise Kingdom”

“a film about a young boy with an imaginary friend. An imaginary friend who happens to be Adolf Hitler.”

people make it sound like she was fucking Cersei Lannister seizing an opportunity to shore up her future presidential campaign

This looks great. As a white-adjacent kid who grew up in a predominantly white environment, I grew up knowing very little about Harriet Tubman other than that she was an escaped slave who was integral to the Underground Railroad. I didn’t really stop to think about what they really meant - I guess the idea of slaves…

In the lead-up to his resignation, women in the Senate were asked “every day, multiple times a day” about Franken.

Matt needs to get a terrible tattoo to really even things out.

Nice recap, Professor, but nothing about that screams ‘Ben Affleck’ or ‘Matt Damon’ to me in the slightest.

I got $50 that says that’s a still from the Snyder cut.

Remember when we only used to make fun of Affleck and held Damon at somewhat of a higher standard? I like how we can make fun of them both equally now even though Affleck remains the bigger / easier target.

I’m gonna guess Marion Cotillard.
Or more likely, someone half her age.

He looks like he’s trying to do that thing where you just out your chin to try to get rid of the double chin. It is the weirdest-looking thing if not done correctly.

Hey, you know what’s a great idea? Having a woman be raped and then make a movie about the men surrounding her? It’s never been done before! This is totally a story that should be told today!!!!

As usual .... kind of a lousy deal for the female character involved. 

I haven’t played the games or read the books so I guess I’m that newby audience Netflix wants to bring in here and......I was left blank by it. It looks dramatic, but told me nothing. Yes, it’s a teaser, but it was just a bunch of jumbled, one-line exposition and various characters screaming. Meh.

Exactly. I’m not saying it can’t happen. If your grill is dirty enough that you don’t notice bristle fragments embedded in the charred remains of past cookouts, it’s time for a thorough cleaning.

You clean slag off of a hot billet (think forging), not welds, but I’ve never thought to pick up one of those brushes. Will do.
