      I’m sure a lot of people are. I am as well. I don’t even know what a chappell roan is.

        A chappell roan is any young female pop artist who doesn’t know what fascism is, but is inclined to vote for it when she sees it.

            She’s a pop singer who seemingly upset a lot of internet people (but not many real people) for saying “yeah, I’m voting for Kamala, but I won’t endorse her because the democratic party hasn’t done enough for the LGBTQ or minority groups and I’m not keen on the Israel support thing”

      A pop star that has had an enormous rise to popularity this last year. By all accounts, she seems to be a very good person who’s main controversies have been burn out and stress from becoming a household name overnight.

      You’d probably recognise a fair few if her songs from just hearing them in public. A lot of songs from her album were very well received.

        She also recently upset some fans by implying that she might vote for a fascist in the upcoming presidential election.

          No she didn’t

          She’s said she’s voting for Kamala but that this is not the same as an endorsement by Chappell Roan ®™©

          But people heard the words “problems on both sides” and deliberately took it completely out of context and have been bullying her about it for weeks

    Should probably mark this NSFW because that outfit is sheer enough to see some nipple.

        I haven’t been to New York for a while. Do people needed a reason to furiously masturbate on the subway these days?

        Cool. If your boss saw you looking at this and gave you a weird look, that’s enough for NSFW. It doesn’t mean “porn” it means “not safe for work” and also coveres gore, iconography (swastikas, hammer and sickle etc) and some other things.

          Depending on where in the world you live, a very slight outline of a nipple is not considered erotic or “pornographic”. Wild that to some it’s in the same category as swastikas and hammer and sickles.

          I would assume most bosses would be more upset you’re just looking at memes at work, but whatever.

            Why, most bosses understand their employees aren’t working 100% of the time because that’s impossible to maintain. People take breaks to destress, to reset their mind etc. Expecting them not to is 100% the wrong thing.

    i feel like every time i try to watch weekend update that one guy (the one who isn’t scarjo’s husband) makes a misogynistic statement and everyone pretends like it’s a joke for some reason and i quit watching snl to do something much richer with my one wild life

      I thought at some point I remember hearing that they sometimes write jokes for each other to make the other look bad which makes it funnier on a meta level, but that’s only if it’s true.

      Even going back to the first few seasons, there were an awful lot of misses, and very few hits.

      We used to laugh about the killer bees, John Belushi’s Samurai, the coneheads, Dan Aykroyd saying, “Jane you ignorant slut!” on every Weekend Update, but when I look at them now, I’m not sure if the humor was there or just going along with the peer pressure.

      On the other hand, I look at the old SCTV shows, and most of the sketches hold up very well.

        Yup, I’ve been rewatching them. I think back and it was so funny, but the ones we remember were maybe one skit every 5 shows? Worse? Maybe one or two a year? There’s a reason we all say “it used to be better” - because nostalgia blocks out the bad ones
