Dave Chappelle - Jussie Smollett (Animated)

newtboy says...

I know, right.
Just like those poor Republicans peacefully protesting when scary black ANTIFA and BLM attacked them, then attacked congress….and now the poor little Republicans are getting blamed….just like that poor put upon little Jussie. You all should form a support group.
(To be clear, that is not a defense of Smollett in any way)

Side note….Who’s idea was it to violate southpark’s copyright? This is going to be taken off YouTube soon because that’s called theft and Comedy Central doesn’t usually let that slide.

Richard Ayoade deconstructs promotional interviews

cloudballoon says...

Ayoade's comedy is not always my cup of (British) tea, even though I love British comedy far more than American in general. His jokes are often very incisive, which I love, but it's the deadpan delivery that is a little dry for me.

THE BATMAN – Main Trailer

cloudballoon says...

This should be great as long as it's not another reboot/origin Batman as it's co-written & directed by Reeves. I LOVE the 2011 PotA franchise, so I'm a lot of trust in Reeves' directing. However, if it's another reboot, then I'm not that excited. Looking at the trailer, it seems more like a reboot than not... so, fingers crossed.

My questions to movie franchises are alway, "is a reboot necessary? Even if the main characters went off screen for a few years/decade? If you're not doing a justifiably different interpretation of a character (comedy Batman to Dark Knight Batman), why not build on previous works?"

The Sony-to-MCU Spidies were still the same Spidey in character at the end of the day after 3 actors playing it. It didn't need those reboots but did, and the origin films were boring.

Media and Democrats are in cahoots

newtboy says...

So says the propaganda wing of the Republican Party, whining little bitches that they all are. What a sad little joke, @bobknight33

Bob, you do get that this is supposed to be a comedy show, not news, right?
Bob, you do get that Gutfeld is another, so over the top and fact free pundit that no one could reasonably believe anything he says, just like Carlson, and OAN, and Newsmax….none of it is fact, bob. It’s 100% hyperbolic partisan fantasy. They say so every time they go to court….why are you intentionally this gullible? They’ve admitted they lie to you constantly and are not news sources….but you keep listening to them and claiming they’re “news” offering “fact”. Duh.

PFAS: Last Week Tonight with John Oliver (HBO)

newtboy says...

Nonsense. Pre industrial agriculture wasn’t very damaging in most cases…and when it was it was on a minuscule scale compared to industrial agriculture.
Pre industrial building wasn’t excessively environmentally damaging in most cases, certainly not to the point where it endangered the planet or it’s atmosphere.

It's utterly ridiculous hyperbole to say we have to be cavemen to not destroy our environment. We don't even have to revert to pre industrial methods, we just have to be responsible with our actions and lower the population massively. With minor exceptions, pre industrial farming caused little to no permanent damage, and it was almost all easily repairable damage. (With a few exceptions like Rapa Nui that may not have been over farming but cultural damage, we aren't exactly certain what happened there).

I eat berries now, don't you? I grow raspberries, blackberries, black raspberries, blueberries, strawberries, and Tay berries myself. People would be healthier if they ate berries, and they're tasty too. What?!

Yes, around 7 billion need to die (without procreating first). Better than all 9 billion.

There’s a huge difference between being occasionally deadly and so insanely toxic we destroy our own planet in under 200 years to the point where our own existence is seriously threatened.
Edit: toxicity levels matter as much as exposure levels. Cavemen impacted their environment at levels well below sustainability (mostly….the idea they killed the mammoths or mastodons off by hunting is, I believe, a myth….natural environmental changes seem much more likely to be the major influence in their extinction.). Per capita, modern humans have a much larger, more detrimental footprint than premodern humans, exponentially larger….and there’s like a hundred thousand times as many of us (or more) too. We need to reverse both those trends drastically if we are to survive long term.

Yes, progress includes risk, but risk can be managed, minimized, and not taken when it’s a risk of total destruction. We totally ignore risk if there’s profit involved.

This is a night time comedy show, not a science class. I think you expect WAY too much. It points out that there is a problem, it doesn’t have the time, or the audience to delve into the intricate chemical processes involved in the manufacture, use, and disposal of them. It touched on them, and more importantly pointed out how they’ve been flushed into the environment Willy nilly by almost everyone who manufacturers with them.

By that logic, Newt, its back to caves and eating berries for everyone. And 7 billion people need to die to make planet Earth sustainable.

Everything civilization does is toxic in some way. Even living in caves was deadly, ask the Mammoths.

I like how youre taking everything responsibly but in this case you might be lumping too many things into one problem. If we strive for any progress at all we have to take risks.

Maybe the consensus will be that we cant handle the production problems and need to ban the poly stuff, but this video was not the compelling analysis that would even push me in that direction.

Jon Stewart | Problem With War: Burn Pits and Sick Veterans

cloudballoon says...

While I don't necessarily crave for his old comedy routine from himself anymore -- I've got enough of that from TDS vets like Noah, Bee, Colbert as well as Meyers -- I desperately want his kind of sharp questions posed to his interviewees, with or without the laughs. This 1st episode didn't deliver that, and so its quality isn't above the other shows. I hope it gets better, it CAN get much better.

I noticed a few years after he left The Daily Show he seems to smile less, almost like he's burnt out. When he goes on other talk shows now it's like he's over the comedy routine or just not really engaged. Lost his spark or something. I noticed the same thing with Carlin in his later years.

Yes but not quite the same vibe though.
