I’m not sure of the policies on former Jez writers, but I would welcome some Lindy West on Tweet Beat. Exhibit A (sorry it’s huge, I don’t computer well)

Every single time I see “Dame Dash,” my brain feels with Ether. And then I feel SO OLD because I always think it just came out a few years ago, but it's been FIFTEEN YEARS. A decade and a half feels like three years to me nowadays.

Since when is Damon calling himself Dame? Is this in homage to his longstanding love of Dame Judi Dench? Confused

A friend of mine has her whole family in Alabama (a no Medicaid expansion state) and they are all being treated by a veterinarian. Her brother has an inflamed gallbladder and God only knows what will happen if he needs to have it removed.

Ye gods. Are you in one of those shitty states that won’t expand Medicaid?

That’s only because your daughter is too young to know that by loving Ghostbusters with girls, she is ruining some nerd’s childhood.

Which is a shame, because trampoline and rhythmic are super fun to watch!

There’s trampoline in the olympics! But they hardly cover it :( Same with rhythmic gymnastics.

Oh yes, Ice Skating is the best part of the winter games for sure. I did enjoy watching diving and synchronized diving at the last summer Olympics, but I don’t have any investment in it like I do gymnastics (former gymnast here).

Casual gymnastics sounds awesome. ::::flops on couch...slowly rolls to floor without spilling my beer::::

Gymnastics is the only Summer Olympic sport I care about enough to devote time to watching it. Glad to hear there are options for coverage out there other than NBC.

I don’t know. Blendtec was going in. But really. We're the real winners here.

Am I the only one following Chrissy Tiegen playing blender companies off each other? It's more amusing than it sounds, I promise!

two today:

You’ve seen who gets hit at Trump rallies.

Who are these supposed leftist thugs? Anyone who disagrees with them?

Bee and Oliver are like Jon Stewart was split into two people like an old Star Trek episode... But somehow stronger instead of being a creepy rapist and a 1960s idea of a woman.

Yep, the true inheritor of Stewart’s crown is Samantha Bee’s incisive Full Frontal. I can’t even remember the last time I watched a clip of The Daily Show, much less a full episode.
