Pierce long ago memorized the blog's First Law of Economics, to wit: Fck The Deficit. People Got No Jobs, People Got No Money. From this law flow many surprising corollaries. For example, if you give poor people money, they become...less poor. Also, the more poor people there are who have money, the fewer poor people there are. It's like magic, how that works! And so any politician who moans about The Deficit before this pandemic passes should be turfed into retirement, and any politicians still trying to make hay on the backs of "lazy poor people" should be hung by their thumbs with their own bootstraps.

It is unavoidable that some truly psychedelically bizarre decisions are going to come before the Supreme Court over the next decade or so. If Justice Roberts really does have a tiny institutionalist's conscience that pings away from time to time, it's guaranteed to be ringing like a Chinese gong pretty regularly.

In the season finale's boss battle, the mysterious Russian machine explodes—vaporizing a ton of bad-guy minions, but also, it seemed, Police Chief Jim Hopper too.

Now, the question is: What the hell is he doing there?
