Purist factor aside (guilty as I am of it) the biggest issue I had with the music was the fact that Burton’s decision to cut out the company basically renders God, That’s Good a half a song.

HBC and the kid playing Toby make a game effort, and I’ll give them that, but the fact is, replacing the chorus with just

I’m waiting for the day one of the right wing figures revealed to be on their payroll comes out with that.
Cause it’s a pretty safe bet they’ve all had this internal debate and come to this conclusion, it’s just a matter of which one gets pushed to finally say it out loud.

Not for nothing, Loesch’s biography feels like a real life black comedy in the making.
Just as Trump’s life is basically a nightmare funhouse mirror version of American exceptionalism, Loesch is basically like a real life darkly comic riff on our love of celebrity. Reading up on her bio is fascinating in a sick, sad

Much as I love Star Wars, I feel like this is one field where Star Trek’s fans have a distinct edge.

In both cases, the main creators are people who had a kernel of a good idea and a lot of ideas that, to be perfectly frank, weren’t that good. The good ideas they did have were then bolstered by good ideas offered up by

I’m still not entirely unconvinced at least a portion of the more aged in the current administration aren’t running under the idea of “I just realized I will die soon and you will outlive me - and so I will make it my mission to punish you for that by turning your world into a hellscape.”

Don’t kid yourself, if we’re living any Arnie movie it’s The Running Man.

Corollary to this - how this entire culture began to use the phrase ‘pick yourself up by your bootstraps’ in earnest, completely oblivious to the fact the phrase was coined for the fact it’s inherently not possible/plausible to achieve.

It’s basically been Mitch McConnell’s go to for the past decade now. Victory for the GOP or desolation for all.

Because he’ll be damned if he’s gonna let a [slur redacted] president get the credit for making this country get better. And if his stubbornness and negligence means it gets worse - even better! Then he and

Thank God, I wasn’t the only one thinking of that one.

“Remember - never take more than you can handle and always know your dealer!”
*Tom Kenny screams incoherently in the background*

To append on my earlier statement - now, in the wake of Gunn’s firing, they are attempting to do similar dirt-digging expeditions on Patton Oswalt and Michael Ian Black are now underway.

I’ll say it again - CONTEXT. MATTERS.

See, this is where I’m gonna disagree with you. Yes, the jokes are offensive, but I can’t pretend the bad faith presented by Cernovich isn’t a factor here.

These things have been there for over a decade. People have known Gunn had a history for crass humor in his past, as he’s owned up to and apologized for on many

‘Whatever job he has’ - He’s part of the alt-right wheelhouse of vomiting ideological bile onto YouTube and selling ‘manliness’ nonsense to gullible simps.

Sadly, their very self-employed nature means so long as their followers keep giving them money, they’re not in any danger.

It’s not that illogical when one considers the nature and actions of the people in question makes it crystal clear they aren’t actually offended by what Gunn said.
The whole argument is presented in bad faith, and it doesn’t take much research to see it.
There’s a reason MSNBC walked back their canning Sam Seder when

You missed the step to put 5 in perspective:

4.5) He made tweets criticizing Daddy Donald - a cardinal sin in the eyes of the new internet right wing.

Cause let’s face it - that’s the real reason Cernovich sent his team digging for dirt here. It’s not cause the man who wrote ‘When In Doubt, Whip It Out’ gives a shit

Particularly when:

There’s one problem with the ‘Obama started it’ line with regards to Trump’s behavior - he’s made it abundantly clear he’ll happily steamroll through something Obama started if he wants to.

You left out a faction among the hard-line pro-Israel group - Machiavellian evangelists who still believe all the Jews will burn in Hell, but will fight tooth and nail for them to get Israel because they believe that is a keystone to setting off their fantasies of rapture and apocalypse.

“Fuck you, Gordon!”
“Now it’s personal.”
“Oh, you want personal? Fuck you too, Albert!”

Tulpa Diane was, to borrow a line from We Hate Movies, a surly delight, and even though I knew it was a long shot, I was still holding out hope for her getting a supporting nom for her work on this season.

“So...I murder all these children...and my wife and kids live?”
“That’s right.”
“That...doesn’t make much sense.”
“Oh, right. What do I know? I’m only the Chancellor of the Republi—”
“BRING ON THE YOUNGLINGS!”

And in true ‘It’s like poetry’ fashion, it was his involvement in Star Wars that first set him on the path to voice acting when Lucas, regretting his inability to help fellow filmmaker Ralph Bakshi secure better funding from Fox for his movie Wizards, gave Hamill some time off from making SW to go record dialogue for
