Yes he did! And may the whole nation sing it soon.
Jayne: Captain, can you stop her from bein' cheerful, please? Mal: I don't believe there is a power in the 'verse that can stop Kaylee from being cheerful. Sometimes you just wanna duct tape her mouth and dump her in the hold for a month.

That was funny as hell, and I wonder if he put it in at the last minute after the Billy Bush tape was leaked. In fact, I feel like the whole opening sketch was hastily written Friday because of the Billy Bush tapes. I mean, OF COURSE they were going to address it, but I bet the writers were up laaaaaaaate Friday writing it. And since I don't watch SNL on the regular, I wondered: is it normal to have the opening sketch *without* the guest host? I'm thinking no, but they needed to do the Trump sketch so they dropped/bumped whatever the original opening sketch was.

I doubt it, traditionally they do political cold opens up until the election so they probably had something dealing with the VP debate planned (maybe Trump being miffed that Pence did well?) and then added the Pussygate material at the last minute.

Ah, that's a good point. (Like I said, I haven't watched it in years and years, so I hadn't thought about that.) I assume they have Alec Baldwin on retainer until mid-November.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I assume they have Alec Baldwin on retainer until mid-November.
And, let's hope, no longer than that!

I'm reading that Trump's genius move today is to attack all the Republicans jumping ship. GOP Civil War--the actors aren't as pretty as the Marvel version, but it's still popcorn-worthy.

Does that make McCain Captain America? He was a decorated war hero who returned after a years-long disappearance, and remained loyal to his dangerous nutjob sidekick despite all criticism.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Gary went out to get groceries, and put the little guy in the crib. I'm not in any shape to get him out and chase him around, so there he stays until Gary gets back. This does not please him, but what can you do?

Sometimes it's just what you have to do, Sheryl. ltc goes in the play yard when I can't chase her around anymore.

Having a tough morning. Feel like my friends are sick or tired of me or just don't want to be my friends anymore. It sucks. And now I'm hesitant to text them to do shit for fear they are either going to (a) lie and say "ohh, uh, I'm...busy" (which has happened a lot with one friend) or (b) invite me even though they don't want me there and go "ugh, why did you have to invite her?" And someone else going "she kept asking!" Or something, which is what I fear happened Friday night. (Or C, just ignore my text until after they all hang out together,like they did yesterday)
