Gremlins 2 has such a weird place in my personal canon. We had a copy on VHS that someone had recorded off TV. I saw it when I was 5/6 and never got my head around it in my youth. I didn’t see Gremlins until this last December finally.

Gremlins 2 is just loving weird and as they said throughout, ahead of its time. It has Raymond Cruz’s first role. The Key and Peele skit about it really sums up what I think the creative process must have looked like. I definitely enjoy it and look forward to its 4K release.

The Sleazoids podcast had an episode that includes both Matt and the Institute for Gremlins 2 Studies to review both Gremlins and Gremlins 2: The New Batch. G2 Institute’s intro is very pro-listen.

yea Tracey was always kinda a reactionary rear end in a top hat but he did for a time do actual journalism for alternative sources and all and if I remember right broke a couple genuinely big stories. He's gone CHUD because they pay better and I imagine it's way easier to get that bread just going 'ah heh, THE LIBS :smug:' without having to make a leftist case afterwards.

Also in other news, lol

It was super awesome when libs criticized Trump for not taking an aggressive stance with North Korea. Really, everything liberals did to show their love and loyalty for the national security state is incredibly reassuring and a great sign of where the nation is going.

(I know Posobiec is a right-wing idiot, I'm just saying.)

Hear, hear.

Serious question: How many people actually comprise the social class that people like Brooks and Chait claim to represent? (Stephens is an ultra-wealthy corporate heir who was raised in Mexico because of his father's business interests, so forget him.) And how do you even determine that?

The best measure I can come up with is "Do you make enough money that right-wing policies (i.e. tax cuts and investor bailouts) benefit you more than M4A, free college, free childcare, etc. policies would?" And that's setting aside the pressing concerns of long-term sustainability that any sane, educated person ought to have. As far as I know, that's not a vanishingly small sliver of the population, but it's a small one. Even if you only count people who can and do regularly vote, it's a small fraction.

Has anyone else noticed that both never-Trump Republicans and libs trying to own people online seem to go with "you should be mad at Trump because he was unfaithful to his wife with a porn star" rather than "You should be mad at Trump is bad because he's proud of committing sexual assault?" It's almost like they're downplaying the later. Am I noticing something that isn't there?

You're not; they don't want to reopen a discussion that also implicates Bill Clinton. The ruling class is rife with sex criminals, including plenty of Democrats. Who knows how many more Ed Bucks are out there?

Because he wasn't talking about a specific incident, the bragging about sexual assault thing is much easier to dismiss as just bawdy talk. It seems like the Trump/Stormy Daniels saga got more attention than all of the assault allegations got combined, and the latter are much easier for people to convince themselves that they didn't happen.

It's extremely gross that the thing most liberals focused on is that she's a sex worker, and not her testimony that she felt coerced into having sex with him.
