Having a disease isn’t a crime. Knowingly spreading it is. Stop victim blaming.

Second world mean communist.

The original Sleeping Beauty in space would’ve been a more “interesting” (and horrifying) story - she’s impregnated while in her pod and labour forces the pod to wake her... Although then rape is a plot device... but if it’s a well done archetypal fairy tale retelling that isn’t remotely gratuitous, I could get on

I am batshit crazy about my dog, but your workmate is nuts.

The Obamas brought class to the Presidency. Note that there was no scandal in his Administration.

There’s absolutely nothing wrong with laughing in the face of despair and tragedy.

No, no his youngest brother Stephen has become a right wing nutjob over the years and iirc he recently came out and said he wasn’t a fan of Alec doing this particular role. I’m not sure about his brother Daniel, he too might have specific political leanings but I don’t recall anything. The other brother Billy is for

Were you a member of the Screen Actors’ Guild (as Baldwin is), you’d find your union wouldn’t allow that. And rightfully so. He can take his scale and donate it to a worthy cause, but he has to make scale because union.

I had wondered. He’s not a regular on the show, and he’s a big name who might usually ask for a lot for an appearance on another show, but one could guess that he would be doing this for free/nothing. I’m wondering how long he will do it for $1400 per episode. Will he start getting more, stop doing it, or do it for

The ability to freely poke fun at the leader is one of the first things to go. Satire and comedy is one of the canaries in the coal mine of our civil liberties, and we already see how much trump hates it.

I’ve been out of SAG long enough to have no idea what scale is anymore, but I’d guess $1,400 bucks would be about it. In other words, he’s doing this for the minimum possible payment the union will allow, not something a star like Baldwin often does.

I’ll admit I wondered about it, just because I think the only reason they went with a non-cast member is because they assumed Hillary would win and Trump would be little more than a footnote in history, and then they wouldn’t need him any more (same deal with Larry David as Bernie). And now they’re in a situation

I actually wondered, since he’s doing it so frequently. I figured he was doing it for fun or getting paid a lot. Considering his usual salaries, he’s doing it for fun (fun not meaning YEAH but just meaning for reasons other than a salary.

I’ve had a half a dozen kinja presences (this is my new one; can never remember my burner key so I start all over again in the greys) but I’ll say it again: Tina Fey deserves the Congressional Medal of Honor for preserving the Republic from the horror of a Sarah Palin Vice Presidency.

The craziest thing about all the trump skits on SNL is that it’s basically just reciting word for word actual things Trump has said and done. It’s funny because of Alec Baldwin but then you think about how this is actually exactly what’s going on...

I disagree. They are doing what Tina Fey did to Sarah Palin, turning Trump into the butt of a joke. Although, I do hope that the writing doesn’t soft petal what will be inevitable Trump fuck ups.

For what it’s worth, I have never seen it that way. I think it makes a grotesque out of Trump, rightly so. It’s pretty rough and anything but soft or flattering. There’s a reason he hates it so much, after all, no?

I foolishly dated a Republican for a few months years back, and he asked on multiple occasions how many abortions I had had — and when I told him none, he refused to believe me because, according to him, I was a liberal woman who liked sex, so I must have had a bunch and why was I lying to him? God, he was horrible.

Aw. How sad for her. She’s an educated white lady from a privilaged and liberal family which means she’s always had access to sex ed and birth control.

Rob Kardashian makes me want to be a better man because I really do not want to be like him even though I am presently unemployed, a little thicker than usual, and am smoking too much weed. But I am going to make my mom proud and stop tokin up!
