Movie review: Lost in Space

Young Will Robinson looks to his sister Penny who—rather than wholesome and clean-cut—now evokes a style best described as “Punk Toontown” and possesses a voice that’s a cross between The Nanny and Lisa Simpson. Penny has just gone into gruesome detail as to what happens when one is faced with the effects of floating unprotected in the vacuum of space. And the cherubic Will wonders, “Do they have a name for what’s wrong with you?”

Sure do, Will. The name is, “The Nineties.”

So: Today’s the Day

It’s all come down to this. Several years after Mitch McConnell declared that the GOP’s top priority was making Obama a one-term president, we now learn whether or not they’ve managed to accomplish this. We will be heading over to yet another polling place (the third in as many elections after twenty years of being in the same place) to cast our votes, and we encourage everyone else to do the same.
