What does Steve Bannon get out of this?

I bet this guy didn't even know who he was, he just punches anyone he sees wearing a Pepe the Frog pin.

This comes from Bannon, right? Bannon is the one who thinks this way?

"Ugh, celebrities. This is why Trump won."

No, people think he has had financial incentive to support interests in Russia which began as innocuous and which have spiraled our of control as he unexpectedly became nominee and then president.

I saw an absolutely fascinating thing recently: a Trump supporter, in the wild, trying to explain why including people like DeVos in the cabinet does indeed count as "Draining the swamp."

I've been trying to boost my empathy by reminding myself that conservatives were just as horrified, nonplussed, and upset in 2008 when Obama was elected. They found him risible and awful.

One thing I've had the misfortune to see is that quote unquote Real Gamers appear to be piiiiissed about the Switch, for some mysterious reason.

I stopped watched Sherlock after the godawful Irene Adler episode, where they had her prove she was just as smart as Sherlock by getting outsmarted by him a zillion times.

Killer Mike is just such a phenomenal MC. The best working today by a longshot. I don't always agree with him, but damn, how refreshing that he's out there making stands I can disagree with.

"Hey, you're an aging actress, famous for playing one role. What will you do now?"

Lots would, to the extent that they already dislike him but also always vote republican. The main concern is whether the republicans in the house and senate could impeach Trump and then emerge politically unscathed, not whether Trump could win another election.

Either a Russia connection or a tape of the n-word would bring Trump down, in the sense that they'd be political opportunity for house republicans to throw him under the bus and impeach so they can have the less chaotic Pence to sign their bills. Trump's supporters won't care, but they won't matter.

Carrie Fisher was smarter and funnier than you are.

The amazing thing about Inside, besides performing the feat of finally creating a decent sequel to Out of This World, is the genuinely beautiful pacing. They need to keep adding variety, both to the gameplay and to the setting, and somehow it's always simultaneously surprising and intuitive.

Well, I mean, knowing the ending certainly made the Starr Wars prequels feel pointless (in addition to their other many problems), and this is pretty much the same deal.

Yes: they're unimportant enough to die without affecting the larger Star Wars narrative.

Isn't this whole movie just… pointless and stupid? We know none of these characters are important in the larger universe, or we'd have seen them before.

Lupe's a legit linguistic genius, as far as I'm concerned. He's also insane, which makes him simply too frustrating to be a fan of. The first five times he retired from music demonstrated that to me.

OMG this guy is literally one of those Russian trolls, isn't he?
