I just remember him whenever the two play the Trump sons, “and I’m Eric!” It wasn’t until I read here that he and Taran Killam were in the musical. I seriously thought Pizza Rat was Ben Affleck. As far as new faces vs old, if the face looks amazing, I’m all for it. It’s the bad plastic surgery and overuse of fillers that annoy me. For example, Cher? She looks great. Her surgeon is worth every penny. Even knowing she had work done, I’d never guess she was 78. On the other hand, what did John Mulaney do to his face? The guy’s only 42, he didn’t need any work.

What I heard, and I could be wrong, was that Musk blames USAID for the fall of apartheid so dismantling USAID was nothing more than petty revenge.

In a little bit of joy, I know Dr. Jeffrey Birnbaum. I got to rotate in his clinic when I was a medical student. He runs an HIV clinic in Brooklyn and because one of the groups with the highest risk of HiV is the transgender community, his clinic takes care of a lot of transgender youth. He is awesome. In other news, when Drumpf says “merit” what he really means is “whoever kisses my tushy the most.”

That’s protocol. You want a baseline at time of incident before you start meds. What if Garcia already has Hep C and doesn’t know? So if she does convert, you know it’s because of the incident and not a coincidence. Not to mention, it’s PEP post-exposure prophylaxis not PReP. Those meds are not harmless and you need to get a baseline on the metabolic panel to monitor while the doctor is on the meds. You also have to do a panel on the patient. This happened to a surgical resident I worked with when I was an intern only the scalpel wasn’t dropped on him. The patient grabbed the scalpel and stabbed him. Inner city hospitals are fun.

Wow, that representative is really good at spinning the crazy. If I listened only to people like him and ignored my own eyes, I’d probably support Trump too.

Jon really likes cloches, doesn't he?

It reminded me of Bluey’s Duck Cake. When I first saw it, I yelled out “duck cake!”

I just don’t get the people who want to deny Harris the White House. Ironically, my friend was wary of voting for Harris for the exact opposite reason. She felt Harris isn’t strong enough on Gaza. You know what I told her? Take care of your own house first. How can we do anything about Gaza when our rights are being taken away, when we might be arrested or shot at and killed for protesting one way or another? Why can’t Muslim people in the US understand that Trump wants to ban Palestinians from the US and deport the ones already here? He has already made the US a hellhole for immigrants as he spreads lies about them eating pets and stealing jobs and saying they’re being imported from prisons and insane asylums. He stokes the flame of antisemitism by saying if he loses, blame the Jews and is pretty much telling his voters to attack us if he loses tomorrow. (Disclaimer: I’m pro two-state solution and always have been) I’ve been saying since he decided to rerun that I’d vote for my 96 year old grandmother with dementia over him. I’d vote for a paper bag over him. And so I will proudly cast my vote for Harris tomorrow because, just like what Oliver said, I might not agree with everything she says, but at least with Harris, my children and I will have a future. I’m not so sure with the orange guy.

Rio is I think the fourth variation of death we’ve seen in the MCU. We saw one version in Black Panther, one in Moon Knight and one in the last Thor movie. In Moon Knight, it was even explained how different people have different afterlives and trips to the after life. For all we know, Rio is specific to witches. So who knows who or what Tony may have seen?

That opening Bar Mitzvah scene was excellent except for the Torah reading. It should have been sung. For getting so much right, why did they get that one part wrong? It’s interesting that Billy Maximoff, who’s Jewish in the comics, gets reincarnated/inhabits the body of a Jewish child, who is also Jewish in the comics. I love the representation. It makes me feel seen.

Yes. And they all smell like cat litter.

It seems like they were in the normal world while Agatha was in her own world and while Agatha saw herself in the crime drama, the residents simply saw Agatha as crazy.

Poor Jason Bateman, never getting to work at McDonald’s because Kamala took his job. Still, The Hogan Family was an adequate consolation prize.

He didn’t officially have Alzheimer’s as president but there are a lot of people who said after he was diagnosed that the signs had been there. I don’t know, I was a kid. Both my stepdad and grandfather were in hospice and both hospices were run through hospitals, one of which was run by the city, so it’s just foreign to me that hospice could be for profit like that. It was great for my family. My grandmother was given a “friend” with whom she would go out for coffee. When my stepdad was near the end, and became delirious and violent and we couldn’t take care of him at home anymore, he was placed inpatient where he passed away several days later. It was a nice place, very calming. My stepdad’s mother was also in inpatient hospice, interestingly the same place I went to preschool, yes I went to preschool in a hospice. Supposedly having little kids around made the patients feel better. Meanwhile, I could have sworn John Oliver covered hospice before. I remember watching a segment not that long ago that hit all the points John made: the private hospice companies, people going door-to-door to sign up people for hospice, losing the ability to get treatment if they’re signed up, a bunch of hospices being run out of the same building, etc. if it wasn’t John Oliver, who covered it? Adam Conover?
