"It's cool. At least Hulu has a ton of other shows starring women of color we can watch. Oh wait." Kravitz is right—Hulu is thin on original series starring women of color. And if Hulu won't invest in a story that successfully flipped the tired cliches the older High Fidelity iterations relied on, then what does that mean for the future of the streaming service? Adrienne Westenfeld explains how this iteration of the story successfully flipped the dickish-white-dude archetype on its head—and why Hulu made a mistake by not giving it another round.

"Look, Chris Chalk was born in Asheville, North Carolina, single mom. I think they were married, and I really don't know. I told this to my agent the other day and she didn't believe me: I didn't know what divorce meant until I was in college."

And it certainly hasn't helped that the escape of the theater hasn't been an option when the real world is getting too real. Thankfully, movie studios quickly realized that releasing new films directly to consumers for home on demand was a necessary option in an extreme situation like the COVID-19 pandemic. Trolls: World Tour broke streaming records as one of our first pandemic-forced direct-to-digital hits—and it has since caused a ripple effect that might change how Hollywood game plans its big releases going forward. Since Trolls: World Tour changed the game, we've seen a ton of other studios follow suit, and (praise Queen Poppy), we've had the early release of several other films that were originally planned for a theatrical release. From horror hits like The Invisible Man, to true-life looks like Just Mercy, here's a list of movies that are streaming early due to the coronavirus pandemic. And for a more curated list, many of our best movies of 2020 are available to stream already as well.

You might not have started with the right skill set, or any knowledge of how to use ingredients, or the correct tools to do it well. Well, unfortunately, we couldn't be there to fix the first two problems, but we do have a sick trick for the last one. The folks over at Our Place—the brand, not our actual home—have a pan that's quite plainly everything you need from a pan. What that means is that the Always pan is literally a pan for always.

Pierce bring this up, because as we get closer and closer to our own elections, which are gearing up to be one of the chewiest clusters of fck ever seen anyway—and that's just because of the pandemic, and not the obvious ratfcking from the administration* and its enablers—he thinks it's safe to say that the results in November already are in "dispute," and that the infrastructure of crazy through which the dispute will be conducted is already in place. "Expect more of this," he says, "and in a hundred different places, as November beckons. I honestly don't know what this country is going to look like by Christmas."
