Especially when they work for the party, and need to somehow be neutral between the person who has been a leader of your party for years, and someone who joined the party last minute, wants to lead it, and also wants to dismantle your job and all your years of work. But remain neutral!

David Harbour > the music > Millie Bobby Brown > the title sequence > Winona Ryder > everything else

oh my god I'm really tired of hearing my brother bitch about the "shocking" "information" that was "revealed" in the DNC email leaks

Ghostbusters was… good enough. There's wasn't enough cast chemistry and some jokes/sequences fell pretty flat, but there was also enough worthwhile stuff that I didn't feel like my time was wasted. I'll probably never watch it again, though.

He looks almost exactly like Benny Schwa and it's weird.

That's probably it. And it's not a very exciting movie on paper. "Oil businessman goes to Scottish town to convince them to sell land, maybe meets a mermaid" isn't really an eye-grabber. It's the details that matter with the movie, and it's just too subtle and subdued to easily convey why it's great.

I would like Hopper to be involved in the next season, if only because I thought David Harbour was brilliant in the role. I could see some sort of thing where the town is just a focus for weird shit a la Sunnydale, and the next season touches on this season's characters but doesn't necessarily include all of them as…

I'm watching The Bourne Identity and Walton Goggins shows up as basically an extra. So weird.

Interesting. I'm down.

Well fine, I'm just going to nominate Local Hero until we watch it.

Stranger Things was really fucking great. I loved everything about it. Do we know 1) if it's coming back for a second season and 2) what that season might look like? I could see this series opting for an anthology approach over a continuous series; despite the way this season ended, I don't really see anywhere from…

Literally just finished Stranger Things and just about to dive into Bojack.

The highest tier has something that deals with the animated series but I forget what

Hey, bongoes, the current comics Humble Bundle is Grant Morrison themed. First thirteen issues of 18 Days at pay-what-you-want, and the next six for $8!

Yeah, actually, right next to a Don Pablo's that was a Pokestop (because it has a baller mural painted on the side) that had a Lurestop dropped on it. I only went to it because I was like WHAT ARE THESE MYSTERIOUS PETALS and it paid off.

In unrelated news, I caught an Exeggcute today. That was kinda cool.

That's what's conflicting, right? If he wasn't her dad, I'd dismiss her outright, regardless of charisma. But I'm having a hard time adjusting for the fact that he's her dad. Like, how much is family loyalty and how much is her endorsing what she actually believes? I'd like to think it's the former given that her…

And to his great credit, it only felt ten times that long!

Mr. Trump, what you've just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God…
