Despair would be appropriate in principle, but it is pointless in practice.

All quotations are fraudulent and/or actionably libelous (unless otherwise indicated by the context).
It's like trying to adapt Genesis. It's so disjointed and there are barely throughlines that can be sequentially dramatized. The music of the world would be like that thirty-minute opening sequence from Fantasia.

Is Trump still pushing the 15-year auto loan, or did someone point out the fault in debt slavery that will survive the car by 5 years.

Revolutions always come on the heels of good times that end or are curtailed, not out of longstanding desperation and want that people have gotten used to.

And speaking of dead eyes: Happy Thanksgiving, everyone!

There's going to be a break-even for this at age 75 or so, but for everyone younger than that? Definitely the death of truth.

The Western nation-states are more or less defined by the extraordinary power they had to religiously and linguistically homogenize themselves.

Hugenots and English Catholics would be unremarkable minorities in any part of the Habsburg domains or points East.

French is a dialect that had an unstoppable army.

It's the same basic value proposition as zombies:

So if a bunch of guys biting and slowly grappling is this effective, why do weapons exist?

Likewise, why did gunpowder become a thing if melee weapons are better?

Also, you can only watch so much brutal female suffering before the "everything on this show is happening to women somewhere" motif starts to feel utterly gratuitous.

Yes, it's happening in mutually exclusive contexts in wildly different cultures and y'all are having way too much fun with it.

A Canadian feminist being way too cute about various cultural pathologies of the Reagan-era religious right that Hulu declined to update in a way that made no goddamn sense.

Like, no text or video? Seems like a misread on the present, a bit.

It does make sense that they'd choose this moment to bust out a string of ostentatiously racist policies (even for Trump).

Miller is trying to get them in before the buzzer and no one is minding the store.

This will be very helpful in redirecting my wife away from her desire to get another Pomeranian, as it will be a cold day in hell before that happens again.
