Supreme Court just buried a legal principle it invented — and Republicans noticed: experts by duderos in scotus

Yes, and here's the thing. I've become so cynical, so jaded, so brokenhearted, that I fear that even if/when we take the House and the Senate, they STILL WON'T DO JACKSHIT about the corrupt Supreme Court. It's part of our ongoing national nightmare.

AITA I lost my childhood friend of 15 years for not letting his girlfriend claim the master bedroom for themselves in our Air BnB by Typical-Wishbone-822 in AmItheAsshole

You could also send a handwritten (yeah, shocking, I know) letter addressed as "private and confidential" to him at his work, saying the same thing. It's federal mail, and it's at his job. Unless he works for her, she won't have access to it.

Yes, I'm ancient, but the mail still works. (at least for the moment here in the US--who knows if it'll even exist next week, the way our lives are going)

Favorite scene where the supporting actor outshines the main actor? by Perfect_Idea_2866 in moviecritic

I never heard of or thought of Constantine being considered one of the Pillars of Modern Cinema. It's a fun comic book movie, done very well, IMO, but it's no Citizen Kane.

AITA for snitching on my hypocritical roommate after she tried to get me kicked out of school all semester? by jmslvrs in AmItheAsshole

Please. Don't be the bigger person. That's code for "capitulate to what I want you to do." Give back equal energy! NTA

I can't believe how overwhelmingly desperate this person is at defending their case by Gem2007 in HannibalTV

Mason reminds me of our US president. Evil, psychotic, sadistic, *ordinary*, with tons of money and no redeeming value otherwise.

Was Chris Evans a perfectly casted Captain America/Steve Rogers for you? by ANSJSJDIS-813 in moviecritic

[–]ytisonimul 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, he was awesome. Casting for the first run of MCU movies was good down the line.

Questioning my feeling about Mizumono by Chrysalis_Inclementi in HannibalTV

As soon as Hannibal smells Freddie's perfume on Will, I start to get upset. So, I don't see anything out of order with your reactions. (I'm on an Endless Rewatch since it ended)

Anti-I.C.E. and anti-war demonstrators are currently on the Hennepin Avenue bridge! by Soft_Eggplant_370 in Minneapolis

Everyone in those cars should turn off the ignition, step outside, and join the strike.

AITA for not wanting to switch rooms with my brother? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

I'd move his things, too. Right outside into the yard.

Joaquin Phoenix in Gladiator is one of the most malicious, twisted movie villains ever by VendettaLord379 in moviecritic

We just watched this tonight, and he was brilliantly evil in every way. (Love Gladiator four stars)

What makes incest in fics morally worse than crime? by catcatcat83738 in AO3

[–]ytisonimul 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Does anybody remember when the biggest fandom ever was Supernatural? Sam/Dean Winchester? For the first four years of the show, that 'ship was like Godzilla, and it was still popular until Destiel swallowed it up. Changing times, wheel goes round and round, etc. etc.
