Weren't a lot of the Branch Davidians African-American, including at least one of David Koresh's "wives"? Kooky and probably dangerous they were, but I'm not sure they can be said to have been part of that whole white nationalist "sovereign citizen" movement that sprung up during the Clinton years.

Is that worth checking out? I saw the TV movie it was born from and found it amusing enough.

Miller always leaned right and still managed to be funny, but apparently 9/11 just broke his brain. I remember seeing him on some talk show around Halloween of that year (so about 6 weeks after 9/11), and yikes. It was like watching Goebbels do stand up.

I neither hate nor love Garden State. 2004 was the year I turned 30, so I was still young enough to get WHY some people loved it, but too old to really be affected by it. Or maybe it's because I didn't move away from my hometown until I was 35—long after everyone else in my family had left, actually. I mean, I was…

LOL, "my world". Yes, obviously I do not consider him a bigot, that is totally exactly what I said. Go be argumentative and abrasive with someone else, I'm not interested.

Google "Customs agents ignore judge, enforce ban". It's happening.

Eh, we'll just have to agree to disagree there. I don't really consider that kind of editorializing to be a newspaper's job, outside of opinion pieces. They may not outright call Bannon a racist fascist, but they include plenty of quotes from people who are willing to do so. I have made supporting legitimate…

One of the first things I did* after the shock of the election wore off was set up a recurring monthly donation to the ACLU. I figured they'd be busy during a Trump administration, but I'm a little disheartened at how immediately correct I was proven. Anyway, I can now refer to myself as "a card-carrying member of the…

That fake excerpt reads like 1984 if Ayn Rand had written it.

I thought Many Patinkin was already well-known for being an asshole. And is Seagal's hair actually just a piece of black construction paper? Yikes.

I went through a "1970s paranoia flicks" binge a couple of years ago and realized I'd never actually seen this movie. I was also struck by how relevant it still seemed, even though the equipment was all ancient, and I did NOT see that end coming. Brilliant.

Michael Rapaport turned into a barely coherent Sterno addict so gradually that I hardly noticed.

There was a Lore podcast episode about the story, the theory is that a majority of the town's children were sold to resettlement agents who were hired to colonize Transylvania with Germans. Apparently there are still similar family names in the two areas. And then later on the town made up this story about rats and a…

For some reason the funniest gag for me was the plethora of fried egg sandwich restaurants in town. It reminded me of the "hammock district" joke from that old Simpsons episode.

YES!! I mentioned it in my comment, I've NEVER forgotten the way he kept whisper-screaming LOOK AT IIIIIIIIIIIIITTT. Between this and The Ring, just leave mysterious unlabeled VHS tapes the fuck alone, kids. (Not that anyone has a VCR anymore.)

You should watch Communion again, because as an adult it's just hilarious.

My brother and I were addicted to this show and used to consider turning in our jerk neighbor for one of the crimes. Luckily we never did, because I’m sure we would have gotten caught.
