Never assume you're the smartest person in the room.Political punk, podcaster, pop culture evangelist. Complicated cancer survivor; still healing.She/Her. If you’re not a Fascist/Racist/Misogynist/Homophobe/Transphobe/Xenophobe/Antisemite/AI, we’re cool.
If Ron Swanson showed up in Widow’s Bay, I would not bat an eye.
In honor of CBS/Paramount still being a jerk about airtime priorities, and the MTV VMAs not being broadcast live as a result, here is what happened when MTV/CBS/Viacom wouldn’t let Daft Punk perform on The Colbert Report because of VMAs contractual conflict. Hey Jeff Bridges!

“Today, I see angry young men online LARPing as Catholics, often for the aesthetic.” This has been happening with my generation and religion for decades.
Today, I see angry young men online LARPing as Catholics, often for the aesthetic. They celebrate strength and hate the weak. The use slurs against the disabled and fantasize about enacting Crusader violence against their enemies. I wish the Pope would speak directly on this.
Happy Spooky Season! Never forget this actual costume I saw 13 years ago at a pop-up costume shop in Chicago.
Cillian Murphy’s son’s character on HBO’s Youth being depressed and in bed watching YouTube clips of Mitch Hedburg on his phone is charmingly devastating on multiple levels.
On the way home today, I experienced peak 2026: Long John Silver’s advertising their new chicken wings.
They’re all getting mega bucks from sports betting companies. If by some miracle we get to run Congress after the Midterms, I would love to see congressional hearings about the commodification of sports instead of who we let play them.
While the house is on fire, Congress is busy adjusting the brackets.
SNL season premiere recap: The writers room is full of YOUTHS who just desperately watched YouTube clips of better sketches for inspiration, and we all suffered as a result.

I have never been more proud of my heritage 🇨🇦 South Park needs to write a sequel song to “Blame Canada” called the multi-meaning “Blame US”
"Why should Canadians trust Americans who have twice elected someone they consider a venal, dangerous buffoon? They could excuse them for being 'tricked' the first time. But electing him again, by a bigger margin the second time, tells them all they need to know." — @brynntannehill.bsky.social
Today is one of those iconically perfect early fall weather Saturdays. Dammit, now I have to go outside today.
Can’t sleep, watching season 3 of Westworld, and you know who I miss in my prestige TV? Luke Hemsworth. Stubbs was an underrated character that he totally elevated with his delivery.
Three episodes in, I just keep thinking about the dramatic efficiency of the Apocalypse season.
*defeated sigh* Okay Ryan Murphy, you win, I am fully onboard for ‘AHS: 13.’ You still can’t make me watch ‘All’s Fair,’ unless I had to choose between that and The Human Centipede.
Give me a season of Celebrity Traitors made up entirely of comedians and voice actors.
Period. (because she also forgot one in “P.S.”)
Jill Stein sure can sell Kool-Aid, but she can’t spell it.
This dinner was sponsored by Americans who lost their healthcare, families who lost their SNAP benefits, Vets who lost their benefits, gov’t employees who lost their jobs, migrants who paid taxes & worked for crap wages…
Probably not the image you want going around the internet when the majority of Americans say they can't afford to pay their rent or mortgage
Think your state AG is bad? Ours is suing the state athletic association because two members of the board are not white. How very 1966 of him.
Judging by the first five minutes of AHS 13, apparently Ryan Murphy and Taylor Swift are in some kind of cahoots, which makes so much sense I’m surprised it didn’t occur to me before now.
Interesting that during Pete Hegseth’s DraftKing of Kings Tour, when naming the groups Americans have fought in our 250 years as a nation, left out the group we fought in WWII.
2026: Because of Ed Sheeran and Robert Kraft, people are finally discovering the 2016 song that Macklemore did with Idris Elba. Put that in your pop culture MadLibs and smoke it.

JFC this is a bleak era for child stars of my generation, even by child star standards.
‘Home Improvement’ star Jonathan Taylor Thomas was arrested in L.A. on Monday, Sept. 21, on charges of obstruction and public intoxication, according to the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department.
Let the numbers in this headline sink in. I am an unapologetic TV Head, but even the reality of 25 BEST shows in 9 months has me laughing uncomfortably. And they even left off one of the year’s BEST, The Vampire Lestat!

The small screen has been excellent all year—although there’s one show of the year, without question.
