“Wasn’t Emanuel kind of unknown and, if known, disliked in Chicago? And yet he became Mayor.”

He was a damn Congressman from Chicago before becoming the Chief of Staff for a President from Chicago.  He wasn’t unknown by any stretch of the imagination whatsoever. 

“I mean, hell, we’re talking about an administration whose Press Secretary insulted their own voting base less than a hundred days before the midterms, which is something even Donald Trump isn’t incompetent enough to do.”

I don’t know about that part; Trump insults his base almost every time he opens his mouth.  The…

Let’s go through the most devastating Pixar moments like this, on whatever criteria we want:
* this scene
* last ten minutes of Wall-E
* first ten minutes of Up (still probably the overall champion here)

I’ve said before that between the last ten minutes of Wall-E and the first ten minutes of Up, Pixar technically had me uncontrollably sobbing for an entire calendar year.

I don’t know - I was in a local Target the other day, and while they were indeed totally out of either version of the console, they had plenty of Joycons (Joys-Con?) available.   I do wonder if they’ve pulled them off of the online store, though, to try to prevent exactly the sort of reselling shenanigans the Switch…

Yes!  They are significantly increasing the price without adding anything of value.

Also, the deliciously appropriate choice of song. Message fucking sent.

I genuinely look forward to January 2049 when we will finally get a chance to see what the incoming Swift Administration will be able to accomplish.

I have no doubt of that.

Have you talked to any of them since we learned her great regret and shame was bullshit?  I’m genuinely curious how they react, although I suspect that they won’t.

My eye snagged on that one too, but come on, let’s just let it go here.

There is, but since the comedian immediately said “Zack Snyder” it seems he was at least somewhat justified there.

Finally!  Finally now!

My favorite detail about this whole thing (since let’s face it, GOPers with racist posting histories is hardly anything out of the ordinary) was that he was part of the “Young Guns” thing, since he’s fifty-fucking-three.  Sure, that’s par for the course for them, but it’s still always hilarious to see.

And I think “Tracy Jordan.”

Seasons 5 and 6 were largely a pretty good return to the 1-2-3 form and are absolutely worth watching.  

“Do you know what happens to a planet that gets hit by a moon? The same thing that happens to everything else.”

“Aside from potential death, according to the Mayo Clinic, the side effects of taking hydroxychloroquine include, but are not limited to: Blistering, peeling, loosening of the skin; decreased urination; defective color vision; diarrhea; difficulty breathing; feeling that others are watching you or controlling your…

“Kagan”, by the way.

I’ve said this elsewhere, but your comment seems a good place to say it again: the dumbest person I have ever met applied to join a big-city police force and passed with flying colors.
