Barron Trump?

When I think of bigots, I typically don’t think of the typical Starbucks barista (in spite of the “you can’t sit out our tables and not buy anything” debacle). They tend a be a pretty woke group of hippies. Occam’s razor - the barista misheard the name. Endemic racism exists in the States but this seems like something

So does he :)

Wow - if we could harness the energy behind mindless indignation and put it to productive use, think of the things we could so as a society! This is a wonderful example of how western society has devolved over the past 20 years.

That’s the scene I always think of.  Damn this is a good movie.  This article inspired me to rewatch it.  Thanks!!!

Next thing you know they’ll tell vets that they can’t own their own pets!  Yah... umm...  /s

Which one is Wayne Newton?

“MY LIFE FOR YOU” was a Deux Ex Machina ending?  There actually have been a couple endings depending on the edition of the book and King is apparently adding a new ending to this one (as Andrew below mentions).  IMHO any ending would feel like a letdown to everything that led up to it (for example The Dark Tower

Excuse me, but that would be “Tin Pot Dictator” to you, madame!

I didn’t have sex with her - I just put a bit of the tip in!” - Alan Dershowitz

I agree with those as well if they were only giving small parts.  Him being Ace would be pretty hilarious.

Being a 55 year old man who grew up as a movie-file, Robert Redford in Jeremiah Johnson was my archetype of manhood man - only second to his performance in Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid.

Lloyd Henreid - he’d rock the eating of rats and the corpse of his fellow inmate in the next cell.  I think he could play all dimensions of that character including when he gets power under Flagg and think he would be entertaining as hell!

I can see him being Lloyd as well.  I picture Flagg (at least how he makes himself look to others) as more physically attractive and very smooth in a very authentic manner (even while lying through his teeth).  Sort of like a more physically imposing Ted Bundy or Jim Jones.

This is not a guy who sounds real confident in his party’s prospects.  Whether that’s learned helplessness on his part or a taste of Democrat’s inertia, I hope I am wrong. Alternatively, it’s a guy who says “I have no dog in this race so fuck ‘em all”.

This is why we can’t have nice things. This was a great show and Peter Serafinowicz did such a great job of playing the clueless, impulsive, and single-mindedly righter of wrongs - The Tick. Kind of like if Superman had a brother at the high end of the autism spectrum.

Presenile dementia is both tragic and impairing.  Sadly, those afflicted have little insight into their condition.  Kind of like Narcissistic Personality Disorder which only involves the lack of insight.

Word has the functionality built-in (Read Aloud). I have all my reports read back to me and I always catch errors that I otherwise wouldn’t have in a regular proofing.

I can’t imagine it getting much worse than It is now either but we’re talking about a different “It” (the clown with the orange face).
