Lorne Michaels, the creator of SNL, whilst making his mark on television, has ALWAYS been a huge snob, catering to almost solely top tier Comedy, Movie and Music stars as hosts for the first 40 years of the show, he’s only just recently in the last decade been feathering in Television stars, mostly due to the advent of streaming and movie people working more in a television format. Michaels probably doesn’t see Weird Al for the brilliance Yankovic always possessed and produced.
This is sad news, but not totally unexpected, at least by me. The first season had the dual storylines of young Catherine and older Catherine which really gave it some depth, and it was far grander of a scale. Samantha Morton is fine, but what really grabbed my attention was Liv Hill who played Young Catherine was captivating, and her storyline was a lot more exciting. The Second season while good, was not great, and suffered from being almost claustrophobic in it’s portrayal of the French court. This spinoff with Minnie Driver as Elizabeth could be fun, but she’s playing it waaaay over the top, so we’ll just have to see what they give us. Bonus for all the stars getting paid for a third season without having to do any of the work.
There is no argument for Republicanism, there is only racist authoritarianism and the complete destruction of egalitarian secular Democratic institutions.
Lying is all they have, and for half of the American electorate, it’s enough.
It won’t be enough in the long run when they start dying and their children have to work in the mines again, but for a brief shining moment before that (a million dead from a mismanaged and purposefully sandbagged viral pandemic response aside) they will bathe in the belief their white christian righteous superiority.

“why can’t they just make it good”
well, as it turns out, good, truly good and griping, is hard.
when you have the stars who can carry just about anything, quality can slip a bit, but when you don’t, and it’s been proven the stars you’re using, aren’t compelling personalities, for whatever reason, and don’t have the draw themselves, good becomes paramount. and because the mcu is built around intertwined narratives which are almost completely dependent on characters, when the characters themselves aren’t working (mackie, larson, et all) and the narrative itself is far past being played out, you’re sorta up a creek.
“grip” wasn’t what drew republicans to trump in the first place, it was the authoritarian racism, and he’s still got plenty of that, so they’re going to support him again, because republicans realized that they could never win on their arguments in a secular egalitarian democracy, which is why they’ve sought to tear it asunder since the civil rights act, with the southern strategy in 1966. trump isn’t a symptom, maga was always the goal.
Jews: yes, we’ve been here for all these, and we will be here to fight, if we must, in the middle east tomorrow as well. 3500 years and counting. and unless you’ve got a roman legion in that pocket, we ain’t goin anywhere ever again.
the jews are tired man

well, no, someone used meta smart glasses to feed their instagram, and used facial recognition software on a different device like a pc to scan the instagram photos, and push their results to their smartphone

Here’s a clue : try posting something in support of Jews or Israel on either .ml or .world, and you’ll see the two user bases are exactly the same type of antisemitic tankie trash, no discernible difference whatever
