And all bets are off in Treehouse episodes. But it must be a constant question.

I’m with Mirkin, but it brings up one of my favorite Simpsons wrinkles: when is a character an idiot and when are they as smart as the writers? Homer is the obvious elastic hero, sometimes can’t remember “spoon,” sometimes critiques Jasper Johns.

Not that I expect much from Politico, but granting anonymity in exchange for total bullshit is malpractice.

My extremely online 20yo, for whom Seinfeld is a creepy guy and a catalog of dislocated memes, actually sat and watched an episode from the dentist’s chair. Their shocked review: “It’s… funny?” Well, yeah. That’s how comedy used to work.

It’s a very lazy phrase that gives instant moral weight to a low effort, one-source story.

mad how the defining cultural image of Steamboat Willie is Mickey whistling and driving the boat, and not the bit where he plays a pig's nipples as a musical instrument while it shrieks in pain

“Son, we live in a world that has pools, and those pools have to be guarded by men with guns. Who’s gonna do it? You? You joke about the algae and you mock the paint. You have that luxury… but deep down in places you don’t talk about at parties, you want me by that pool. You need me by that pool.”

This would be very very bad writing if it happened, but so much of what we have now is very bad writing, so I live in hope for Chekhov’s Lightning Bolt

If we just speed up the slow, transparent count with opaque technology, then the racist charlatans claiming fraud will have no choice but to accept losing fair and square, and maybe we’ll learn they’re actually dope friends and it’ll be sick to hang out. #xbox #microdosing

So glad we found Widow's Bay on Apple TV+. (Are you on here, @katiedippold.bsky.social?) Reminds me of a live-action Bob's Burgers, with sound quality that makes the most of grumbles and throwaways. Matthew Rhys = good as you'd think. Stephen Root, Kate O'Flynn, Dale Dickey, Neal Casey? 👍

I've grown to enjoy the rococo excess of CBS's Masters production. They just set a lowlight reel of a Sam Burns double bogey 7 to what sounded like the theme from Braveheart.

The @theonion.com is arguably the best-written newspaper in America. I don't mean "SATIRE IS TRUTH!" I mean their devotion to precise language and the inverted pyramid, telling us what we need to know up top, coloring it with quotations in their proper context. And, of course, SATIRE IS TRUTH!

It's very early and I misread this as "heavy aquatic water flowers," which still works but is a different song altogether.
