God help us all if they go full “Pivot to Video”.

It feels like we are genuinely losing the war against misinformation sometimes. And Google/YouTube are no help on this front, they’re actually doing a world-class job of helping spread it. https://t.co/RJZFjOEikB

I will pay extra for a special edition of this movie where the mustache is left in. I have zero interest in seeing Justice League, but leave the mustache and I am first in line.

Just a few weeks ago, a man walked into a house in Plano, Texas and shot and killed 8 people before getting killed by police. As Kimmel noted, events like that are literally a blip on the national radar. 8 dead in a single shooting, and we’ve become so inured that we literally treat it as just a thing that happens.

Those bits from Corden and Conan’s monologues stood out for me. That 25 years ago, the idea of a late-night comic having accrued a collection of remarks for a new mass shooting from previous ones, and the fact that we seem to be setting new records for “deadliest mass shooting in U.S. history” at a blistering speed.

Same. I pretty much only knew him from the singles, but I don’t think I’ve ever turned the station when one came on.

I was under the assumption that CPR, when done properly, breaks ribs.

This is what gets me more than anything else. Confederates killed thousands of men fighting under the (apparently) precious, holy flag of the United States, but we need to honor their monuments.

That and it’s just hard. I mean, have you seen the most recent Ben Garrison cartoon about the NFL protests?

Easy. They agree with the President that this is what the NFL should be, and anything else is pansy-ball.

I always went with that there’s nothing wrong with being a fan of something. But “fandoms”, of anything, get incredibly toxic incredibly quickly.

It just seems so weird to me. The entire history of sports in America is tied up with politics. From Jackie Robinson to Unions to the Miracle on Ice.

The jig is in ascension.

I just finished Season 3 of Narcos, and every time I see Jaime now it’s weirdly hilarious to me.

I really wish I didn’t know detailed things about fandoms I’m not in.

Like the NYT said, he thinks this is a political winner for him. It’s his new “Lock Her Up!”, so it’s not going to go away anytime soon.

“there’s no anthem being played before movies or plays.”

Now playing

To be fair, Bill Skarsgard made it seem like the kids dealt with it surprisingly well.

And so much harder than he goes after people walking around in public shouting “Jews will not replace us!”

He has all but guaranteed that a LOT more players will be kneeling on Sunday.
