I should post something

I'm not sure what. So here's a random selection.

Alec Baldwin Just Destroyed Trump & Bannon On SNL
This made me laugh so much that my 15 year old came to ask what the matter was. (Yes you have probably all already seen it.)

And here is a video that... well, was rather prescient:

Donald Trump's Fascist Week: The Daily Show

Via Tumblr:

Before Dr. Seuss did children’s books, he did anti-fascist political cartoons. Remember Trump’s slogan is America First.

People have also been posting festivids links, and oh, there is one for Attack the Block. Perfect, perfect, perfect song:

Invincible.
'When they come to destroy the Earth, they'll have to go through you first.'

Plus, speaking of movies:

Vox: Some say Hollywood is out of touch with America. 2017's Best Picture nominees say otherwise.

Alec Baldwin is brilliant!
Bannon as the Reaper is a nice touch, too.

[elisi]

It's stupidly brilliant! :)

I did laugh out loud "Hello, is this my sweet Barack?! Barack Obama, I miss you!" "No, it's Donald Trump." "Ugh, gross."

[elisi]

I love that woman.

Although it was Zimbabwe that made me cackle like mad. :)

"You can't even walk up the stairs!"

I nearly died...

The Saturday night live skit is hysterical… and terrifying.

[elisi]

Yeah, these are strange times. We laugh so we don't cry.

The SNL skit was just hilarious XD

[elisi]

I particularly thought that Steve Bannon was well cast. >:)

SNL has been on a roll lately!

As has The Daily Show, and Samantha Be...

It's a golden time for satire.

It's great to have something to laugh it, but it sucks it's under these circumstances.

Stacey

[elisi]

Aye. :(

While the Trump/Bannon skit was hilarious, I thought the one with Melissa McCarthy was even funnier.

[elisi]

You know, I almost linked to that one too! But it was late, I was tired, and I figured people had probably seen it.

It was even closer to the bone though...

That skit KILLED me. I was laughing to myself all day just thinking about it. "ALL OF THE MEN HAD ERECTIONS."

[elisi]

I'd never watched any of his actual press briefings, but going back and watching a real one was... surreal.

The SNL skits have been sanity-savers. The material probably just writes itself. They don't even have to work!

[elisi]

It's barely satire, more like reporting...
