Welcome to the nightmare.

I'd like to sleep for the next 4-ish years

Same. Though I fear waking up would be like the Statue of Liberty scene in Planet of the Apes

What A Week

This is your most “get off my lawn you whippersnappers” post you’ve ever made. Snow is fun, I won’t hear otherwise.

Snow is only fun when you don't have to leave the house.

Season 1 spoilers, beware! :

The scene where Michael drops his facade and starts laughing like a maniac remains one of the best season finale moments of any show ever! I was literally jumping in my seat all wide-eyed

And the petulant vase slide off the table, like he was a cat? Absolutely wonderful, and ad libbed on the spot.

 

[UnquietDreams]

If Michael Schur is any way involved in a show, it’s gonna be good. That show was probably his best work though.

Fully agree. There were no weak seasons, no weak characters, and the writing was top-notch all the way through. And giving an Intro to Ethical Philosophy class in an accessible way was brilliant (and the best version of The Trolley Problem ever).

Seconded, Song. Good Place is in a good place but not in the best place. The best place is Parks and Rec https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f970.png

P&R had some amazing season, but Season 1 and 7 both exist. Season 1 was trying to be The Office and season 7 had the worst Flanderizations outside of...Ned Flanders, really. The Good Place knew what it was, where it was going, and had all the pivots dialed in.

But all opinions are equally valid! (This is just mine, and it is the most valid.)

Snow where I live they just shut down and stay inside their houses for 2 days....and that's over maybe 3 inches.

Oh, we shut down up here at a quarter inch. But we almost always get snow on top of ice, so it sort of makes sense. But the whole town just rolls up and sleeps.

I mean where i live, they shut down before it starts snowing but I didn't want to say that.

Yes. This. I don't even need more context P&R is just so good!

Fear. Power. Overwhelm the system.

Though I haven’t listened to AGG, but I’m assuming it’s about the shit fest going on.

I'm guessing equal parts stupidity and malice.

Ooh. Talking Good Place. One of my favorites. Love that they brought in the whole team from How Did This Get Made? at various points.

I think I'm in the minority that liked 30 Rock more then Parks & Rec. Not to say it was bad by any means, I just liked 30 Rock's humor more.

I'm with you. 30 Rock's writers were masters at their craft!

Childish Gambino himself wrote for the show. Come on.

There are do many good one liners from that show!

Bookburning in the digital age. Control of information. It's what fascist regimes need to do to stay in power. Destroy education, control information, and give the people some other group to hate more than their leaders. Control control control.

Every record has been destroyed or falsified, every book has been rewritten, every picture has been repainted, every statue and street and building has been renamed, every date has been altered. And that process is continuing day by day and minute by minute. History has stopped. Nothing exists except an endless present in which the Party is always right.

Or you can... move. Mass exodus. It's what I did, escaping an authoritarian Marxist one-party government.
Moved to Sweden. You'd be welcome here

I’m too pissed to move. 20+ years to be told I should quit my “low productivity job in the public sector and make America great again by getting a high productivity job in the private sector” just pissed me right on off.

Musk can choke on his hubris before I’ll do that.

I have dual nationality. As do my kids.
I'm in a position of exceptional privilege and influence. And I have deep institutional knowledge paired with as natural ability to lead people through chaos.

I'm needed here.

I will come visit, though
