Agreed.
An article on “why I like this show” that opens with two paragraphs on “why I don’t like Tina Fey” might be the dictionary definition of “burying the lede.”
I find your take on the Colin Quinn comeback to be quite different from my own. “I was not conditioned in a family of abuse to accept that abuse” is the message I take, and the ‘child of alcoholics’ line both makes it specific (therefore funny) and stingingly personal, since Quinn gives off a ‘Family of Boozers’ vibe.…
It’s the whole schtick, though: white women doing gross things with food. If the videos were all children or puppies or whatever, Claire wouldn’t be like “someone is cooking this spaghetti,” she would say “a puppy is cooking this spaghetti.”
because that is the type of woman whose videos he produces over and over again
I really enjoy Ann Reardon and her How to Cook That channel on YouTube. Along with her fantastic cooking videos, she does a number of debunking videos that go into details on why many of the recipes on content farms (5-minute hacks, blossom, etc.) are bad and sometimes dangerous. She will even discuss how to make…
There are very few grim things that bring me pleasure, but one portion of that small set is the knowledge that Lee Atwater has been dead for thirty years and he never saw his 41st birthday. That pleasure is tempered somewhat by the realization that the stink and sticky filth of his horrid being is still slathered all…
I had the same thought - obsessive sociopaths both, but Atwater had the charisma to be the class clown and Miller...didn’t.
This is the same guy who said in an off-the-record interview (so his name wasn’t attached to the quote until after his death, but it is genuine):
Vaguely reminiscent of Stephen Miller.
“I lie all the time and don’t care if the rubes get hurt.”
Well it makes sense if you’re trying to protect the abusers and preserve a toxic patriarchal society.
Did QAnon investigate this Hollywood sexual predator?
Their goal is far beyond banning abortion in red states or even beyond banning it in blue states — they want to criminalize it nationwide and move onto birth control next. They want El Salvadorian style laws where women can be jailed for miscarriages.
This is why Stephen Breyer at 82 needs to retire now so that Biden can replace him while there’s even the slightest chance to pass someone through the senate, before the ‘22 midterms.
Once the right-wing/Christian Taliban/Ya’ll Qaeda have completely managed to restrict a woman’s right to control her body, they will move on to try to control more aspects of our lives. If we did not have the first amendment, there would be very little to distinguish the United States from the repressive, religious…
Seems like this law would allow anyone to sue them for aiding and abetting, then.
My family and I are seriously discussing moving to Oklahoma because it’s MORE PROGRESSIVE than Texas and we can’t take it anymore. Between this and the gun “rights” bill, I just can’t fucking do it anymore. This place is just terrifying at this point, and I am honestly afraid to raise my kid in this state.
When RBG died, it was a foregone conclusion that abortion would be banned in red states. Actually, it was pretty much a foregone conclusion the moment that Trump won the election. But Hillary wasn’t “likeable” enough or whatever. Sorry I’m still bitter that we threw away the courts for a generation. But I saw the…
