That's not just the Muppets, either.
I hated how many shows when my kid was little *didn't* include jokes for adults that would go over the kids' heads. How are you supposed to watch TV with your kid otherwise?

This is the same show, may I remind you folks, where a very clearly stoned piano player lied to a conservative eagle about the song Mack The Knife being about a man buying his wife pillows due to it being about a mobster.

If we taxed the rich and made sure provincial governments managed health care appropriately, we wouldn't need to be looking to some of the most vulnerable among us to prop up failed policies. And that shouldn't even be an option.

The McMahons don't deserve to be let off easy. I hope they lose.
It's largely been lost in the chaos of the last month, but Secretary of Education Linda McMahon is trying to doxx the John Does who sued her for (allegedly) allowing them to be raped by grown men when they were kids and (allegedly) covering it up
