I'll believe it when I actually see some of them get consequences and jail time.

Exactly. Take action NOW and explain it later.

If Karma was truly swift he would have been gone a long time ago. He’s spent 70+ years conning, robbing, r*ping and stomping on people and now he’s president.
It’s disgusting.

I especially love that episode’s parody of “Beach Blanket Bingo”.
In that one skit, they parody the Beach films, Star Wars, Vincent Price and Chubby Checker.
Definitely a super fun overdose of nostalgia. :-)

I remember watching that live when I was 9-years-old.
It was a magical episode of SNL. Carrie Fisher hosted, everyone was still high on “Star Wars” and the show was still wasn’t afraid to take chances.

Do we have to extract the current occupants before we burn it down, though? 🤔. Lol

Trump will do the same thing he always does: sign a contract with the construction workers, then when the work’s completed he’ll refuse to pay them and threaten to sue them if they retaliate. Then he’ll pocket the $200 million of taxpayer money that was supposed to go to the workers.

100% of Republicans in Congress are Trump as* lickers and 98% of Democrats in Congress are feckless and have zero fight in them, so unfortunately it’ll just get worse.

"You Won't Be Alone". It's a great folk horror film that changes to an incredibly touching and moving story at the end.

Doesn’t he get tired of licking Trump’s as* every day?

It was one of the first albums I ever bought.
I got it when I was 11-years-old and it had just been released and played it until I wore it out. :-)

It was a perfect day to protest the Clown-In-Chief. :-)

And in the video he’s wearing a crown.
His complete lack of self-awareness is staggering.
You’d think he’d want to tone down his lust to be a king on the very day everyone’s protesting that, but the fool doubles down on it instead.

I can’t wait to read it!
I love that show so much, as well as “Red Dwarf” and “Doctor Who”.
British sci-fi TV just hits on a different level.

They really think that running interference and defense for Trump will save them. 🤣
Their journalists will be the first ones jailed if Trump gets the total power he wants.
People never learn that you don’t cater to and appease tyrants.

I can't imagine what it was like back then seeing Neal Adams artwork for the first time. It must have been mind-blowing, it was so different from anything else that had come before it.
