You know Trump has jumped the shark when he can say what he did about LA and SD and it barely makes a ripple. That said, he picked two terrible cities, so even folks on the left kinda begrudgingly agree. 😈 I kid. I love ya SoCal.

To be fair, if I could cut my makeup time down from 6 hours to 1 and still looked the same at the end, I would be bragging too. Even if I was just the guy in the chair, and not the makeup team. I see no reason to spin this into a net negative.

His biggest sin is being in a jam band. The most polarizing kind of band in the USA.

My spouse moved to NYC on 9/11. Took the train under the WTC to Brooklyn. When she got out, it was burning. One of the last trains to make it through. I was Downtown watching from my apartment.

Meidas Touch plays the clickbait game on YT… And it prevents me from clicking. Clicks matter more to them than accuracy. The Fox News of the left.

I haven’t thought about that film in a decade but I have to agree. I quite enjoyed it. It was unique and kinda cute considering the topic.

You just got a bit hot, fast. I was telling you that looking for subtext in my post was doing you no favors because I meant only what I said. What I said was a backhanded compliment at best. Ken’s only claim to being a journalist is the 1A. I should have just told you to calm down. 😈

My, “Fun fact” was based on a character known for inappropriately chiming in with fun facts. I know myself well enough to open with a joke about it. It’s just journalism, something that requires no skill, talent, or education for any American to do. We are all journalists by amendment. A fun fact.

You just described autism. Also, there is no standard for journalism in America. You just have to be in America to qualify. If you think that was me complimenting Ken, you missed my point entirely. Now go on back to telling me to stop being, “Weird.”

JFC, I am an autistic person pointing something out. You are reading everything else into it. Hard to believe you wrote a thesis that got approved after seeing you fail at reading and comprehending a simple skeet.

Fun fact, everyone in America is a journalist if they wish to be. Freedom of the press is granted to all people in the nation. And it is a great part of the reason why we are allowed to film and photograph in public.

It was Dutch frontiersmen, first and foremost. Folks who wanted to make a new beginning. They built from there. NYC is still the commerce capital, so it definitely holds on to its Dutch roots. Surrounded by rivers. It is New Amsterdam still in many ways. But it is the USA more.

Look, I have learned the hard way, not everyone is fluent in Gen X. But fuck it. Let every other generation say directly what they mean. We’re the last remaining poets of sarcasm and dry humor over here in the MTV Generation.

It was also when directors of the time had been raised on serials, so of course, folks wanted to make new movies with those old characters. Lucas famously made Star Wars because he couldn’t secure the rights for Flash Gordon.

You really don’t need to watch him, but if you don’t think he is a Trump critic, it is hard to imagine you have ever watched him. Watch what you enjoy. Just don’t pretend to know what you don’t watch.

The best, most resonant political gaffes are those that show people what they already suspected to be true. Trump’s self-owns in recent weeks are big gaffes. Career ending… for anyone else.

It needed an audience first. 🥲 Underrated film.

That is an interesting take. I’ll add, Hollywood at the time knew better than to try and simultaneously encroach on Spielberg and Lucas’ home turf. It was like DC and Marvel combining forces, and the rest of Hollywood knew better than to even try to mimic their success.

That’s been his schtick since 1993, but it went out of style in blue spaces once Millennials aged up. Things became so polarized the younger generations just didn’t understand or respect coming from the middle to spark debate. Times change. Tastes change. Maher remains Maher.

As soon as I heard who he was and what he wrote, I had to check and see if he got blacklisted… and color me NOT surprised.
