Oh, I understand the nuances better, sure, but the basic stories (and even some of the deeper messages) never really went over my head. The writing was so good in those shows.
I can't even think of one.
I was watching Twilight Zone, The Outer Limits and Alfred Hitchcock Presents when I was like, 7 years old. Nothing was "too mature" for me. We Gen Xers didn't have parents; we had biological parole officers who checked in on us once a month.
Absolutely.
The title of this song might be all-too appropriate for the racist shit this hospital put him through:

Unbelievable.
There is NO excuse for that; especially when the technology to verify is in everyone's pocket. Or you know, they could've just believed him when he checked in.
That was when movies were on the cusp between practical and digital. Sadly, digital won.
These days, it would be SO EASY to verify, too; all they'd have to do is pull our their damn phones and take a look. What the hell??
I have my Four Tops Greatest Hits CD and if I were on that staff, they'd probably fire my ass for trying to get his autograph.
Hell, even B-movies like "Racing with the Devil" (1975) had amazing real-life car chases and crashes; no GCI fakery as far as the eye could see.
My god.
I'm pretty sure they'd never have treated Tony Bennett that way. Balls-out racism.
I grew up watching those; "Dirty Mary, Crazy Larry," "Gone in 60 Seconds" (the original 1974 version), "Two Lane Blacktop," etc.
It’ll never be equitable; we’re always on the defensive. We’ve minded our Ps and Qs since President Carter. They crash the car into the ditch but everyone always blames the tow truck driver.
Yeah, makes sense that someone extolling the virtues of enforced sexism is also a bigot.
Prove to sensible people? No, of course you're right, and I agree.
This verdict just puts another hole in MAGA's wet tissue paper arguments, and it's something Trump CANNOT use against the president if he ever grows the balls to meet Biden in an actual debate.
I would feel a little better if these private companies investing in space travel were doing so to advance actual space science (The Planetary Society I've been a member of for nearly 30 years could always use more $$).
Instead they're offering joyrides for billionaires.
We only need it because Trump keeps belching to his followers that Biden is somehow a corrupt mastermind behind the Justice Dept (yet he's somehow too feeble to hold office??).
Hunter's guilt verdict is ample proof that his dad believes no one, not even his son, is above the law.
And if President Biden was this great DOJ mastermind, as Trump continually croaks to his white zombies, then Hunter would've never been found guilty. Truth is, Hunter was found guilty and Trump was found guilty; proof that our courts, save for a blatantly corrupt SCOTUS, occasionally get it right.
Though the thought of Trump ending up as future shark diarrhea would be a perfect Twilight Zone-ending to his horrible existence.
Hunter Biden has been found guilty.
This has no bearing on the president, but the jury made their decision, and I respect it. Unlike Trump-supporters, we Democrats can use this trial's outcome to show that we're not blind cultists, and that #NoOneIsAbvoveTheLaw

A Delaware jury announced its decision about President Joe Biden’s son, who faces up to 25 years in prison.
www.usatoday.comNot to mention he stalked her onstage like Michael Myers going after Jamie Lee Curtis in a Halloween movie; he knew he couldn't win on substance, so he used intimidation.
If that happened, I'd want that beautiful creature to have the full protection of Coast Guard at all times.
Trying to decide if you'd rather see Trump get electrocuted by a sinking electrical boat or eaten by a shark...
If they want to hear an old, diaper-wearing white guy ramble incoherently, they can visit a nursing home.
Just like the states being hitting hardest by climate change are usually the most vehement deniers that it exists. They are also the states most dependent on federal aid and disaster relief.
But listening to their politicians talky, you think they were all cowboys shootin' rabbits for supper.
I love it.
A salute to Robert Crumb and a middle finger to the orange clown.😊

And which of those 'gifts' affect Thomas' votes?
Oh yeah... all of them. 😐
Just remembering the 200 Republicans who voted against the Infrastructure Bill. Tell me again why it's not needed...?

Fuck 'gifts'; let's start calling them what they REALLY are: Bribes. Payoffs. Quid Pro Quo.

They’re not “gifts.”
They’re bribes.
Clarence Thomas took $4 million in bribes from billionaires.
Everyone understands this, and yet he still holds a lifetime position as one of the most powerful people in our country.
Unrig the Supreme Court.

Who among us has not accepted millions in "gifts" from our friends while sitting in a top-level government position that decides issues affecting our friend's personal and financial interests?
If I saw them begging for change in the street with a tin cup, I would take a leak in it.
Unlike president Pussy-grabber, who was too afraid to get his hair wet for "suckers" and "losers" who fought to liberate Europe...
