Meanwhile, back in absurdist hell:

Looks like Jonathan Bennett (AMC) may be on Celebrity Big Brother - with no less than the immortal Tiffany Pollard, Stephen Baldwin, Trump Jr. paramour Aubrey O'Day and Sean Spicer. Yikes! (But he's also on Supergirl, so I guess he's doing not entirely terrible.)

They do mention Roseanne fairly regularly.

That's exactly what he'll do and his base will agree, of course. But no, in this case most of the media won't - they know what it means, they know it is Trump's only figleaf to pretend he has a 'win' and they have been calling it that on social media for days. That's how most of us became aware of this option in the first place. His base is, beyond a certain hardcore, immovable (though some are flaking off). The rest of the country will call this possible outcome what it would be - no wall, the shutdown ended and Trump posturing again. That is the overwhelming polling result and the final analysis. And there have been a slew of stories in the last week - and month, really - about Trump being helpless and defeated in this fight. Even the Wall Street Journal, of all places, calls it what it is:

The way to stop it is clear: Trump declares an emergency to get his wall, the Democrats immediately sue (as they've said they'll do) and it gets tied up in court while the government reopens and no wall ever is actually made. That is Trump's only out: He loses, but tells his base "it's coming" and that he didn't lose. It's what has been circling the table for several days and any second now he will likely do it. Either way, he's lost.

I never liked or "got" Theresa. There's a difference between a teenage vixen we root for and a psycho. Theresa was psycho from the jump. Reilly never understood that, which is why he often took Sami Brady too far as well in later years. I didn't know Lindsay could act until AMC. I always liked Liza Huber. I wish she'd do more acting. Travis Schuldt was absolutely horrendous. So was most of the cast, really - Metcalfe, Dana Sparks, James Hyde, Rodney Van Johnson, you name it.

Uh-oh!

Y'all are a mess. I gave up like 4 weeks in. It was unbearable from Day 1.

Oh my God. No. (And I say that as a MCU fan)

Take me now, Black Lodge:

Backed into a corner:

That Raiders of the Lost Ark gag is great.

LOL:

The memes about Chuck and Nancy were plentiful, yes, but that didn't stop the coverage of Trump from being brutally negative. Bottom line: He failed in his last hail mary.
