Bad Bunny Is All Charm on a Fun Saturday Night Live

Bad Bunny was a funny, confident, but self-effacing SNL host, as game to throw on a nun or Shrek costume as to play up his cool guy cred.

I get that we're looking for so-called principled conservatives to stand up to Trump. But there's a self-defeating impulse to over-praise right-wingers who actually deign to acknowledge the truths we see as obvious. Join our side if you want, but don't expect medals.

I am in no way, by no stretch, ashamed of how delighted I am that some very bad people feel very bad today. I'm not nice, I guess, but nether is treason, bigotry, or soulless cruelty. #TrumpIndictment4

#fastcar made me pull my car over and cry the first time I heard it on the radio. Happy Tracy Chapman's getting paid, but screw Luke Combs for not mentioning her name because he knows it'll piss off his bumpkin-bigot fans.

See, the thing is, I'm an old-ass lefty. I got all that "so much for the woke left" indecision out of my system decades ago. Now I cheer when bigots, fascists, and other worthless human beings die or suffer disgrace. I know the world is better for it.
